It's interesting how in the u.s this buck dancing has stayed, where as in Australia it has gone ,except for "irish dancing". In the past the papers and historical documents talk about buck dancing in mining or work camps ,but it seems like we never really made it our own like in the u.s.
What would scare people ? Some good ol boys cuttin loose! We had a hard night drinking an playing guitar in an old barn ,woke up thirsty an all there was to drink was a canteen full of MadDog 20\20 . Warm in the mornin sun! This video brings back memories
@@gregr1672 I think he means to say some people are scared by the idea of Americans preserving their own history and culture because they hate America, they hate American culture, and they want to destroy its history.
Folks, you're looking at the real deal here! Clifton ain't no slouch but, the guy in the overalls is giving you a display of authentic flatfoot buck dancing at it's best! Just listen to that rhythm!
Man I wish this type of Appalachia was still alive, the simple life has suddenly vanished. How much I wish I was there and enjoying the moment, Thank you for the beautiful video. I cant confess how much I appreciate it!
@@Townes.VanZandtThank you for sharing that. Where I live, appalachian culture is merely alive. I guess that's just the world progressing forward and just forgetting the past. But I know itll live on, but i just wish it was thriving through my generation.
Hi Clifton.I have recorded this vid and watched it over 50 times in the last 2 days wow.I am from Ireland and as you can see from my profile I play different types of music..In my early days I played Irish fiddle in a band..My comment is,, This flatfoot dancing is exactly the same as Irish step but with a wonderful twist and your Clog is the same as our set dancing only yours is better. but most of all your music is more creative and more fun to play and listen to.I am aware of the Irish and Scottish influence .I have dusted off my old 5 string and restrung it..wish I had done it years ago...Love your tradition and of course your channel here..Jackdaw 🕊
Jack: I _think_ those elements you're observing in the picking and dancing are remnants of a now distant Afro-Caribbean influence. We owe a lot of our more unique folkways to Africans who were enslaved and carried over.
Clifton Hicks I would have to agree with what you said but we Scottish Irish ☘️ brought this style of music 🎶 over the pond as well; merging our style together. I find it soo beautiful.
Man what a video this is! I can’t help but smile the whole way through! There are so many people in this world that could do with a night like this! Instead people are sat alone staring at screens. So excited to get a banjo and start a path to playing songs like this. From England
i have lived since the dawn of the universe and shall exist until the last star falls from the night you have done europe's celtic people's proud... good stuff fella's
We had an old farm house like that on the farm! It was built before the TVA put electricity in our area! My dad grew up in it and it didn't have running water either! Later we used it to jam in too!👍🙏🏼🇺🇸❤
Just Love it! The music and dancing, shadows on the wall in a real home! Doesn’t get any better than this! Kind Thanks! Blessings and Joy of being! DaveyJO in Pennsylvania
Whooo eeee! Look at y'all go! I love seeing clog dancing. I didn't know you could Clifton! thanks for posting this! This was a blessing to see, lifted up my spirits!
Great insperation to a UK flatfooting dancer,looking at you both dancing, I'm getting it right, love both your styles, and your music you play cheers Dave
Clifton most epic..I truly digged the shuffle dancing...Myself an my Elders would clog till the wee hrs. Listening to Brother Slim Coxs an Zela, I. A big fan of Lester..I went to school with his great nephew Mike...I tell u what that is one hell of a family...You sir keep up preserving our tradition an keeping it alive an we will keep shuffling....
Thanks to your online lessons I can play some nice tunes on my banjo and entertain my friends. My goal is to be proficient enough to play some good ol´ dancing tunes like in this video. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and heritage. Greetings from the rural southern Netherlands!
It is almost impossible to find someone to teach this type of dancing. Does anyone know a book, youtube series, or a seminar or some such? I've been looking and other than the sort of modern "clogging" at the local dance studios - which may or may not be what I'm looking for - I can't find anything. :(
Wonderous footslogg'n!👍 Haven't seen anyone do that since I lived with my Grandparents, in a house my Great Grandpa bought from Southern Railway back in 1911. 2 stories, $500! Had to build it from a pile they dropped in the yard, that he bought in Spencer. I still have dreams about the place. My Great Grandparents were actually Dutch, but on my Fathers side it's all Irish. My Dad's mom and my Great grandma by my Mother both had red hair. But meemaw❤️ was a good bit taller than mawmaw❤️. Thank you for this moment sir.
I was raised right out side Salisbury in Franklin township. The diesels had taken over when I was a boy. But still there were steam engines at the shops on occasion. We could hear the steam whistles in our yard. With the NC transportation museum there now you can still see and hear them!
Hi again Clifton. I have shown this video to friends of mine who don't listen to old time banjo music. (Although I have played for over 30 years myself). All of them really enjoyed it and had a huge smile on their faces. Over here in the UK we have the largest bluegrass festival in Europe at the end of this month. Which is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year and always there are approximately 40% old time musicians and fans in the crowd. I thought you would be interested to know that. Once again thanks! Peace Brother
Thanks, we love our home. The deed says it was built in 1940, but old maps in the court house show that it was actually built in the 1920s. We will probably never know exactly how old it is.
Nice dancing fellas. Looks real old timey. Right there with the banjo. It's percussive accompaniment. The real deal folks. This program is, mostly, morally good. Ha ha. I'm Josh Hayes and I approve this message 😁 Bo, you must've watched Thomas Maupin dance a lot...He's a great one. Cliff, you're not doing too shabby yourself. You hang in there😁 But really, fantastic guys. You're showing folks the real deal. Good on ya. Keep it up.
Thanks, Josh. You are _too_ kind. You know I am a terrible dancer! Hope you and yours are well! Sincerely your friend - Clif. PS Ever consider uploading some banjo videos, or putting out an album? You're one of the best I know.
What William Hall is this? Hit by a French Cannonball, so did he fight in the Napoleonic wars, or the french Indian Wars? What Frisco? Clearly not Texas or California. North Carolina maybe? I really need the history on this song. Well performed BTW.
I don't think anyone has deciphered the history behind this song. San Fancisco, California, was founded in the 1700s, but this reference was likely added to the song much later. Shelbyvilles are found in Kentucky and Tennessee. And both England and the United States have traded shots with French navy and French privateers. One thing is certain: the general theme of the ballad, as well as several of its verses, are known to predate 1700. Look up my recording of "Pretty Fair Damsel" for an archaic example.
I learned what little I know of dancing after 2008 when I was living in Watauga County, NC. There are a surprising amount of people in that region, old and young, who are very good at it.
Thank you for sharing this! I’ve been so intrigued by clogging in bluegrass music. If I understand correctly, this was the first use of percussion in bluegrass music. Is it fair to say that it came from Ireland? I’d like to learn more about this. I had the chance to talk to Kenny from Pert Near. He encouraged me to take a class at the Old Town school of folk music here in Chicago. Thanks again !
Mr. Methe is how old? And the dance number is something he is just learning? ...I know a person my age who is just learn vaudeville tapping. Seems like a (pardon the pun) just a “hop, skip and a jump” to have her to be doing this. All we need is some good banjo playing now. Thanks, to both of you.
I know this is a bit late to ask considering the age of this video, but could you show us the lyrics?

You take hook I'll take line
We'll go fishing in the summer time
You get a line I'll get a pole
We'll run down to the fishing hole
Snook on a hook bass on a line
Ain't nobody got a trout like mine
Minnow on a hook minnow on a line
Ain't nobody got a minnow like mine
Shout Lulu shout your best
Your old grandmammy's gone to rest
Shout lulu shout shout
What in the world you shouting about
Shout Lulu shout your best
Old mammaw's in the hornet's nest

Alive at My shack
Had y'all been up in West Virginia yet? I see a roadin' trip in your future. Still very much alive.
It’s still alive. You just need to know where to go.
Keeping the culture and tradition alive...love it!

Haven't seen C walking like that since Westside Connection was in their prime
Excellent 👌
You should do video about clogging basics. I can't find any video on the internet and there isn't someone who could teach me clogging my area
As American as it can get 🇺🇸🦅
This is a joy to listen to. Thanks so much.
Love that rhythm and down strum sound.
Yeah I remember Irish Morris dancers at fetes and tap dancers growing up.we don't get clogging in England just the ole riverdance.
Looks cool
That is some fine playin and Dancing love both songs.
Both of those songs are favorites of mine and your house is as cool as the music itself just letting you know
Thanks, we love our home. The deed says it was built in 1940, but old maps in the court house show that it was actually built in the 1920s. We will probably never know exactly how old it is.
Aww mann... so good!!
Awesome!! Good Ole Rye Whiskey contributed to this video haha!
I want to play banjo and dance like that
far freaking out
These gentlemen have channels too? Love to see more of y’all get together.
So GOOD!
Hi from Australia!
Good moonshine dance lol
Great dancing Clifton! I knew you could play the daylights out of a banjo but I didn't know you were a dancer too!
You get after it Clif

This is the kind of dance I always liked and I will always like! I'm glad that people like You and Mr. Methe carry on the tradition!
I really really love this
Love this, lighting tip, have Clifton sit where the other chair is so the dancer's shadow isn't covering him up.
Awesome,. I enjoy watching and sharing your music!!!
Clift you need to do a video on the basics of flat foot dancing....
Check out the Folkways documentary called Talking Feet by Mike Seeger
Got to love this stuff !!!
Love it, dancing and all!
Awesome!!!!!!
This is so cool!! Love it. Thank you gentlemen
Imagine you’re walking past at night and you see this through the window
About 250-300 years ago it was quite common
LOVE IT!
This is sooooo cool.
Not sure if anyone caught this but is your bud wearing a hospital bracelet?
Nothin keeps a good ol country boy down😉❤ Some tough ol birds😃
That may have been a jail bracelet...
@@CliftonHicksbanjo 😂 well then..yup put my whole leg in my mouth on that one🤦
Fabulous👌🤘
Is that a tall man or a low ceiling?
Both.
Clifton I friggin love ya pardnah
very cool

Hopefully there were some soup beans and corn pone waiting for when things were complete.
Hi Clifton. Oh that's brilliant! Love it!
Peace Brother
I need a clogging tutorial. In all seriousness though, did you learn to dance like that growing up or is it something you later learned?
I learned what little I know of dancing after 2008 when I was living in Watauga County, NC. There are a surprising amount of people in that region, old and young, who are very good at it.
@@CliftonHicksbanjo it’s a beautiful tradition
Weee Leeee Weeee!!!!...🤪🤩😂🤪😜
why he got a wristband on like he just got released from somewhere?
👏👏👏

hi clifton! can you tell me what he is dancing on and what type of shoes too? so i can recreate at home. thanks so much
You need to see if you can find Jesco White as a guest dancer.
Do you do closing as well as flat foot
That was awesome!
Mr. Methe is how old? And the dance number is something he is just learning?
...I know a person my age who is just learn vaudeville tapping. Seems like a (pardon the pun) just a “hop, skip and a jump” to have her to be doing this. All we need is some good banjo playing now. Thanks, to both of you.
Wow! 😳
Is it considered tap dancing, flat footing, or something else that Bo is doing?
Flatfoot I guess cause his feet don't pick up.
If I'm not mistaken Hook & Line is the same tune used by Johnny Horton in his Battle of New Orleans tune. At least it sounds the same to my ears.
You must know of Miss Moonshine?
YEE HAAAA
No comment. Just a pang of ambivalence that goes away quickly. .
channeling jesco white!!
Damn mr Clifton you sure can cut it.
Re my last comment Clifton ,jut noticed Mr Wilkeys wrist band,was that from said Clifftop Festival he had just come from?
It was either from Clifftop of the county jail...
@@CliftonHicksbanjo 😂
The overalls are a bit over the top
His parents are very wealthy 😅
Second guy moved around too much and too much arm swinging. First guy, pretty spot on with the highland dance.
