    Irish Jig

    A little late for St. Pat's, but anyone who knows that Scottish highland dancers do a version of the Irish Jig or anyone who enjoys Irish dance will get a kick out of this link:

    Kinda reminds me of the folks who try to dance a jig (or something approximating a jig) to the marches and/or slow airs the pipe band plays.

    Very entertaining. I can do that, ....... in my dreams. Thanks.
    I changed my signature. The old one was too ridiculous.

    Very funny! But that's not a jig. The time signature is all wrong.

    True 'dat! Music structure is definitely in "four", perhaps a reel? Jigs are in six, and the accents are different.

    A couple good "step" dancers in the video, though!

    Had to watch the whole thing, the music was that good.
    I've found that most relationships work best when no one wears pants.
