Brook Village (Cape Breton) Square dance

First dance of the night. Before it gets crowded, you can more easily see how the 3rd set (reel set) goes.
If you come to Cape Breton, don’t you dare leave until you’ve gone to a dance. Don’t worry if you don’t know the steps. The locals love to initiate the newbies…

Guitar: James MacLean. Not sure about the first reel, but he plays Molly Rankin's (Joh Morris Rankin), Derrick Beaton's (Donald Angus Beaton), The Stone Frigate, MacArthur Road (in D instead of the more common key of E), then two more before he finishes.
