Don't know whether I don't like hero worship, or I've just got different hero's.

Let's hear it for the little guy. The stuffed shirts would starve to death without him.

He made careers which in turn made him. The ordinary schmo is on his own to leave his/her legacy.
I have fond memories of the bandstand era...being an early fifties teen.
American Bandstand dictated style, music and dance for the teens then and later. I do believe Dick Clark was a good man and well loved by many. May he rest in peace.
