Monday Night Square Dance History (Minneapolis)

This is an excerpt from "Monday Night Fever," a Minneapolis community television program produced in 1986 by Bruce Davis, who provides the narration. The film is an introduction to the Monday night square dance that began in the Twin Cities in 1979 and has been running--with a few interruptions and changes of venue--ever since. In this segment, musician and caller Pop Wagner provides a general background of square dancing, after which the show describes how the Minneapolis series began with a group of musicians, illustrated here with a jam session.
