Go- Go Dancers

Most younger folk probably wouldn't remember them. I wouldn't have except for a Facebook post a friend made yesterday with this picture. First thing I thought was Go- Go Girls, but the wife reminded me it was Go- Go Dancers. 

That's Nancy Pemberton and Annie Huettner back in the '60s on their way to work at the somewhat famous Whiskey A Go- Go in Hollywood. Not sure if they were dancers. They waited tables there, but the outfits sure are Go- Go with the mini- skirts and high boots that came to be known as Go- Go boots. 

Wikipedia confirms my recollections. They even mention that one of the places Go- Go dancing might have started out is Hollywood's Whiskey A Go- Go. Way to go Nancy and Annie!
