    I enjoyed this so much! I was a guest on one of these "Low Budget Late Shows"! I also entered & won quite a few "dance-offs" & "marathon dances" that were held at local "matinees" or indoor movie theaters that had stages back "in the day" (60's). There were also "rec [recreation center]" dances every weekend during the Summer, along w/ Drive-In movies. I can remember going to my first Beatles movie (A Hard Days Night) in the mid-60s. The girls in the audience were screaming so loud during the whole movie & we weren't able to hear anything! I first got a whiff of marijuana at a Beach Boys Concert in I think it was Santa Monica, CA, but I was pretty young when I went w/ a friend & her family, so I mainly remember the atmosphere, the crowd singing & dancing w/ the band, & all the refreshments we got! That's when I bought my first album.
    Boy did we have some clean fun back then! I don't know if teenagers today know what that's like.....actually interacting w/ others & engaging them in practical jokes, dances, or in playing street games like 4-square, kick ball, baseball, touch football, hide-n-seek, etc. until late into the night. The whole neighborhood would be involved, including parents cooking on the "Bar-B" (barbecue pits).
    In those days, many of us kept our doors unlocked or kept them opened, w/ only the screen door (yes, we had those) locked, during the Spring & Summer months. We never had to worry about burglars. We barely had 2 cents to rub together, but I wouldn't trade those memories for anything (except maybe Heaven).

      I was born in 1962, had one of the first cell phones in the SF Bay Area, & now I see 👶🏼 newborns addicted to screens & parents happy to distract & morphine-drip screen time into every area. I got rid of tv in 1984- felt brainwashed! So, yeah. Real human interactions, play, good & bad, sometimes wonderful or horrible- but it was REAL!
      Tastes, smells, touches, sights, sounds of real people, in real places, doing human interactions. Video “Seeing” and “hearing” through an artificial screen & speaker are a new type of human “real” that we don’t yet know how it’ll impact us.
      But, the skyrocketing rates of social anxiety and autism kinda make one wonder…
      More violent crimes than in thirty years, likely due in part to desensitization from mass exposure and violent video games.
      Meanwhile, the trophies for “Best” killer of zombies cannot even run, jump, fight in real space and time, nor carry ANY of the “equipment” they get in the games…
      Fantasy
      No wonder this generation wants to grow up and be a unicorn…
      Ain’t no damned unicorns in the real world…
      Which it seems by merely saying so, one is “cancelled” by invisible people who probably bubble-wrap their 2.5 kids.

      @@hazelchief-rabbit5903Hi Hazelchief - You are welcome! The choreography (i.e. the dance step sequence) that the KCTU dancers are performing are relatively simple moves. Most dance teachers, regardless of their expertise (ballroom, hip hop, modern, ballet-jazz, ...) should be happy to break the steps in "blocks" for you and recreate this performance for you.
      Actually, if you slow down this YT video, you can isolate each step (i.e. break them down in simpler moves) and "reassemble" them as you like. That is the way dancers create a pattern or a choreography. One thing to remember though, dancing is about "having fun" or enjoying it!
      BTW: A good line dance to start with is "Electric Slide Dance" which is an easy line dance to start with.
      Peace be with you and my compliments to members of the RAAF I had opportunity to fly combat missions with. Your compatriots are very dedicated and professional, Ciao, L

    The girl in the middle in the front row is hands down the best dancer of the group. She has something--you can see it. The boys in the back row dance like I danced back in high school, and the way I guess I still dance at weddings. It's no good if you're not having fun. This was very kitschy and fun. Yes, we need more Low Budget Late Show dancing like this now.

    The first time that I heard this song, I was listening with a 9 transistor AM radio that was powered by a little 9 Volt battery. Reception was better if I stood near a fence, which I did for hours on end.

    Wow! That was great! That girl in the front row with the above-the-knee floral dress really had the moves!
    I was 5 years old when this song came out. All the songs from this era were so fantastic & so many dances too. Seems like from a young age I always had a radio nearby & I remember all the songs from the early 60s (best music era ever IMO).
    Dances I can remember are:
    The Wah Watusi
    The Twist
    The Frug
    The Hully Gully
    The Pony
    The Jerk
    The Mashed Potato
    The Swim
    The Hitch Hike
    The Shake
    The Limbo
    The Freddie
    The Locomotion (from the song by Little Eva).
    So much fun & it's great to see all these young smiling faces having fun and doing this as a line dance.
    Great memories.
