Charles Thibodeaux - Cajun Accordion - Jolie Blonde Blon

[GeorgieWise]

This is my most popular music video ever, because you can feel love in the air.

[GeorgieWise]

Steve Doerr on guitar. LeRoi Brothers forever.

[cocochanelleke]

Thanks for sharing, très joli!

[Wisegeorge]

@theloudhalo Yeah, I hear you loud and clear. A man like that can wash the dishes, scrub the floor, paint the house, plant and tend a huge garden, raise and care for a half dozen chickens, dig and maintain a goldfish pond and raise worms. He can also occassionaly wank himself off for prostate health or die waiting for his dance partner to do it for him. I know this type very intimately, I've been married and dancing a jig for the same woman for thirty three years.

C'EST BON!!

[gattosub]

I'll be there. Just have some cold beer on hand

[2cexplorer]

Don't know where ya'll are. Wish I was there!

[GeorgieWise]

@2cexplorer it's Austin, Texas. Please come and visit us. Lot's of people these days don't like us but we still like y'all. Evangeline Cafe is the real deal without the threat of Hurricanes and oil spills. You need a vacation. How do I know? Because we all need a vacation.

[zphil]

Bon job!

[gastonave]

It's sad that unique regional cultures in

America have largely been replaced by pop music, fast food and shopping malls.

Read "Jolie Blon's Bounce" By James Lee Burke.. a great N'awlins author

[loadabollocks]

I read Jolie Blon's Bounce and wanted to hear the song. Love JLB's work.

[TheHelen61]

I just have to say (again) I love watching these two. They dance so beautifully and look so good together.

Yes, I wish I was there too.

The band also sound wonderful.

Thanks

[knuckyhead2]

You just got to love the music and the fun these people are having. Wish I was there.

[AshenJustice]

It's a pity that most Cajuns don't teach their own children about their culture. At fifteen I have to search for my own roots. It's really a shame

[rangerchallengebravo]

Yeah, I know the feeling. :-( The culture's going to die if it keeps up.

[owlcritic]

cher',you needs to get deep into the bayous,where dey dont be know roads,dat there is where the culture is still found.and they still trap and fish and pass a good time every saterday nighty at da fau' deaux deaux.

[rangerchallengebravo]

Well, I've always heard that they're not too welcoming to outsiders - not unless you have a family connection. And my family connections to the bayou are becoming pretty distant.

[TheHelen61]

I have to say that seeing these dancers gives me so much pleasure,

They are obviously enjoying themselves (and their culture)

It's a pleasure to watch.

Thankyou

[TheHelen61]

How natural and beautiful to see these players and dancers just enjoying their heritage.

Thanks
