We may sound like a broken record, but it can't be helped! It seems we've said this so many times before, but the 27th was one of the best ceilidhs ever! Lots of visitors who wonder if they'll like this music and dance - but what's not to love? They are always quick converts!
A local friend in attendance showed her steps that night, and Christy Campbell, a well-known and beloved strathspey got her on the floor a 2nd time! Weren't we happy when Frederick from Quebec City came BACK and played accordion, with Shelly on fiddle and Allan on piano.
We'll never be bored of OUR job!!
What great square dancers on the 28th! They got into the groove right away and no wonder! Jennifer and Marion make great music together, nice rhythms and tunes!
On July 29, yet another great ceilidh with Melody, Derrick and Lisa Cameron. There were lots of visitors in Baddeck and both we and they are so happy they find our music!
We had a wonderful, appreciative crowd on the 30th who were in awe of Margie and Dawn Beaton. Folks who couldn't get into the hall stood outside and listened! A few said they may be back on Sat to catch another.
August 1st we got to see some Washabuck folks, who all loved Rachel and Donnie!
Wonderful tunes tonight with Mike Hall. He continues to amaze and thrill us! After the ceilidh, Jennifer stayed late and taught a step dance lesson to a Greek ballerina! She is now a dance teacher in Florida, and she and her daughter picked up "the hop" to take back with them and add to their repertoire of dance steps.
You really can't afford to miss our ceilidhs- as you can see, there's always something new and different, unexpected and surprising!
See you at the ceilidh!
