I have a crush.  Richard and I watch tons of Lawrence Welk (only not recently because PBS has stopped playing it for some reason).  Myron Floren always steals the show, and over the years more and more of the show seems to be given to him – as if the producers know that he is the sexiest accordion player on the planet.

I am speaking as someone who likes the sound of a well played accordion; but I imagine his chops would be appreciated even by those who don’t.  What’s more, he always has the happy little grin on his face while playing and seems completely at ease being in front of a crowd and/or camera.

When I mentioned that more and more of the show is given to him through the years, I didn’t mean more accordion spots.  Eventually he starts to MC half the show in place of Mr. Welk.  And he does this better than Mr. Welk.
