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!
\"My kids have become wonderful dancers themselves and enjoy teaching just as much as I do.\" - Bobby Burgess
