I do.

Let's hang out.

Moreover, let's hang out, earn some red-wine mustaches, and learn the routine to this fine bit o' footwork brought to us by T-town's own Claude François Dance Troupe. (Tollefson Square would seem a fine venue.)

You didn't know we had a dance troupe devoted to a deceased French disco star, did you?

Voila le wiki:

Ambitious, Claude François moved to Paris, where there were many more opportunities to pursue his career. At the time, American Rock and Roll was taking hold in France and he took a job as part of a singing group in order to make a living. … In 1962 he recorded a cover version in French of an Everly Brothers song, "Made to Love" (aka Girls Girls Girls). Written by Phil Everly, it had been only a minor hit in America, but Claude François' rendition titled "Belles Belles Belles" rocked to the top of the French charts, selling close to two million copies and making him an overnight star.

In an e-mail to GritCity, the dancers wrote:

We are a group of Tacoma natives on a mission – a mission to spread joy, dancing and a love of the late French disco star Claude François throughout Tacoma and the world! Although we are scattered across the world (from London to Iowa), we reunite once a year in Tacoma to continue this important work. In order to further our mission, we are embarking on an online outreach campaign around our latest video in which we perform the funky dance moves from Claude François international hit "Cette année-là".

My favorite part is when a car drives through the routine and it gives me a little frisson of electricity – will the driver coast by, head bobbing, or even stop, leap into the back row and join the dance?

Oh là là. You will just have to watch.

p.s. Here's a croissant I ate once in Paris. It was good, damned good, as Hemingway is alleged to have said in relation to something French.
