@LadyDuck106 : Line dancing has been around for many many years with the first scripts noted in 1650. Modern Linedancing (as percieved today) can be traced back and authenticated to 1968.. and done to 'Soul' (R&B) music. There are many inconsistancies with tthe history of the Shuffle Boogie Soul and as such there could be a case for Plagiarism and if a Law Suit was to follow it could prove a costly affair for someone.
@MetalTigger Hey, sounds like breaking news! Makes you wonder. And my mom (African American) was doing line dances back when she was a teen. I don't understand why it's considered so new (touching on hardemon1's comment).
There is now a BIG question mark as who did the original steps. Weisburd claims that he and he alone (according to the step sheet) Choreographed the dance in August 2010... so how come there is a video of the dance some 12 months PRIOR to August 2010 ... not in Palm Beach - but in California by James Rice.
I can't believe that this such a big deal! We the black community have been line dancing for ages. But because the country song is being used , it is now the new thing in Palm Beach County. Honey Please!

my thoughts exactly . . . doesn't even look like the same dance -- i guess it's the element of the timing -- a black vs white vs yellow
