'Old Joe Clark' - Melody's workshop,
Eddlestone - March 2007 |
Melody taught us another dance over a few workshops and this is
it. It is danced to the tune 'Old Joe Clark', but we have also called
it the 'Farewell Dance' because Melody, Matt and
little Jimmy are soon heading off to pastures new in France.

Melody's 'Choreographed Routine' workshop, Eddlestone
- November 2006 |
This is the routine that was taught to us by Melody Lovell on
the morning of 4th November 2006. We think we all did really well
to learn
a few new steps (more for those who were novices!) and to complete
the dance in 1½ hours.

Linlithgow Folk Festival - September 2006 |
This is what everyone who attended the workshop was able to achieve
after an hour of teaching - a dance called Dead Easy (written
by Charlotte Moon). Well done to all!! And yes, it was a very warm
day!

After the workshop we did a quick demonstration. The dance is
called the Matlock Steps and is danced to a tune called Citigo/Laughing
Boy (although some of the tune is missing as we have edited the
music to fit the dance). The 'bat-eared' amongst you will hear that
it's the same tune as we used for the workshop dance!
