Shake, rattle and roll. Then dance.
This video is all about power -- the power of music, the power of the opposite sex, and the power of whatever pharmaceuticals are in the plastic bag tied around this old guy's belt loop.
Unless, that is, the crutches that he tosses away at the beginning of "Rock Around the Clock" belong to a partner that passed away earlier in the afternoon. In which case, the video is about the power of one man to cope with loss and move on with life, because the clock he's rocking around is ticking, so you may as well dance while you can.
After watching this dude in action, there's a good chance that "drop the crutches" is just one of his dance moves, along with "the hair pull" and "shake the plastic baggy." Moves that were popular back when "doing Molly" meant actually having sex with a woman named Molly.
Whatever the case, he's an inspiration to players of all ages.
