Chicken Dance creator has died...
MILWAUKEE -- The man who wrote the world-famous "Chicken Dance" died Wednesday at the age of 82.

Milwaukee native Bob Kames created the dance in 1982 and it earned him a gold record.

Kames is a member of the Wisconsin Area Music Industry's Hall of Fame.

2. I can see that.
The only proper name would be "Requiem for Wings".

(apologies to Samuel Barber...)
