The 70's Gong Show was loved by fans because of the chaos that ensued for 30 minutes every day. At random moments, Gene Patton, aka "Gene, Gene the Dancing Machine" would shuffle out from behind the curtain & perform his unique dance moves to Count Basie's Jumping at the Woodside. The show's host, Chuck Barris was mesmerized by this Stagehand's moves & couldn't resist joyously dancing with him.
Patton will be remembered for both his dance moves & for breaking a Hollywood color barrier when he joined the Int'l Alliance of Theatrical & Stage Employees.
Dance on Gene...
