Bastille Day 2011 had a distinctly American flavour to it! The theme of the traditional 'bal populaire' or people's ball held on Notre-Dame market square was line dancing! Here on stage Versailles' 'les talons sauvages' line dancing association. There's an organ pipe of sorts on Artsy Versailles.Le bal du 13/7 au soir place du marché Notre-Dame était très américain ! Soirée country et line dancing animée par "les talons sauvages", l'association country de Versailles. Il y a un orgue étrange sur Artsy Versailles.

Danse de country, que j'arrive (grosso/modo) a maîtriser
Sounds like a lot of fun.
Did you dance, Ciel? On one of your visits to the USA, you must have learned how.
Looks like fun was had Ciel, somehow I don't think of line dancing when I think of France, maybe more like the can-can!!
Nice bolo tie!
It is still Bastille Day here so I am not too late to say Happy Bastille Day!
Line dancing in France? Please, stop before it is too late!
It makes me thing of of the time,many years ago, when our family went to Euro Disney. The rodeo clown for our section (who, as it happened, was from Kansas City) picked me to represent our section is the shootout with Annie Oakley. Buffalo Bob asked me in French where I was from. I said something like "Zhe sweeze de Saynt Louis, Mizzouree!" "Oh shit, an American" Buffalo Bob said under his breath. Annie won the contest.
This does surprise me.
How cool event there and your pictures are great!

J'aimerais trop danser country!Mais ici, c'est considéré comme ringard..alors j'ecoute juste la musique!
Looks like a little bit of everything.
Well, you sure caught me by surprise with this one. Line dancing in Notre-Dame market square?
How strange for the French national holiday to have an American theme. Somehow that just doesn't jive for me.
How curious on a national holiday!
This reminds me of my gym class where we learned to line-dance! Looks fun :D
I think they are both neat!!
I can't put the two together, this whole western theme in France!
I agree with EG... huh? I often confuse line dancing with square dancing... used to do a lot of the latter when I sang in a semi-prof choir in my teens... :-)
On ne sera pas depayse quand on ira en France!! Et en plus a Versailles? Un comble.
fun that you found the spirit of cowboys in Franch
This is really strange, but I am sorry to announce you that the theme for our next Effetto Venezia is... France!
Line dancing on Bastille Day? How curious! I like country music but I will proudly announce that I have never line danced -- however, I find it so captivating that whenever I see it, I have to watch.
