July 2017 After my performance thenI did the shim sham I did with my other partner Charlie Meade who had a stroke last year and hasn’t been dancing and has a lot of pain walking. I call it a miracle he got out there.
Once again the Miracle of Dance! Doing the Shim Sham with Charlie Meade at Midsummer Night Swing and he throws down his cane! Ha! We do the Break-a-leg move off at the end!
