Myron Floren's Offspring
03:13
An unsettling performance of "The Chicken Dance," performed by dancer and former Mouseketeer Bobby Burgess along with his gawky offspring. Bobby is the son-in-law of the late accordionist Myron Floren, both of whom were long-time performers on "The Lawrence Welk Show." Myron himself provides musical accompaniment after introducing the "performance," which takes place on an eerily barren, dungeon-like stage. This clip has all the classic, premeditated, cornball Welk staginess, minus the talent. Also, everyone has that trademark, desperately forced Welk smile. What fun!

    The Chicken Dance can trace its roots to the ancient folk dances of China. When Western traders made contact with the Chinese Empire, the dance was taught to them & they took it back to the Western world. In all that time it has changed very little.
