    Oh yeah - I sure relate to that. The best of Bandstand is when it was broadcast from Philly and in black and white, back in the late 50's. Dick Clark was my first crush on an "older man" (in his late 20's).

    I was surprised to hear this too yesterday. I grew up learning to dance while watching Bandstand. Me and my best friend would get together and copy the newest dance trend. I can still do some of those dances today such as The Twist, Mash Potatoes, the Jerk etc. I don't think many of you remember those dances but I had a ball doing them. So sorry to see you go Dick, I will always have very fond memories of you, RIP.

    You're absolutely right, Ellie. I remember seeing Frankie Avalon, Fabian, Chubby Checker just to name a few.
