à gogo or à go-go or a-go-go (uh GOH-goh) - adj., (postpositive) as much as you like, galore.


Also, a style of music and a cabaret/discotheque style/atmosphere. All of these derive from the name of the first discothèque, Whisky à Go-Go, established in Paris in 1947. In French, the phrase means aplenty/galore (and goes back to Middle French, origin uncertain). You can see how that would be something to advertise, just post-War.
