This Broadway line dance was originally choreographed back in 1992 to the song JOEY'S SONG by Bill Haley and his Comets as a 1 Wall dance. Then in 2006 the dance was done to “DANCIN’ FOOL” for the Opening Number at “A NIGHT AT THE COPA”, an event created by Ira (2007— 2012) which drew hundreds of single and married couples. The dance subsequently became overwhelmingly popular with Ballroom dancers and Line dance groups mainly in the Filipino line dance communities here & abroad to the “HELLO DOLLY MEDLEY”. You can see many groups dancing it on Youtube.
