Sandbach, Sophie and Gary


Congratulations Sophie and Gary from all in the Moody Food Ceili Band.

We had a new guest caller tonight – Mo Waddington – who was very sweet and brought along with her some new dances. I had never heard of 'The Road to the Aisle' which had a wedding story to go with it, and it was lovely that Mo chose Rosa,  a beautiful couple dance, for Sophie and Gary's first dance together.  

Highlight of the night was Sophie stepping up to the mike with her tin whistle to rip through a blistering set of reels, The Mason's Apron and Drowsy Maggie,  whilst the band struggled to keep up with her (well, it is bad form to upstage the bride).

Here's a list of Mo's dances for your Moody Food Dance Card:

The Cock o' the North / 100 Pipers
Rosa
The Road to the Aisle
Discouraging Waltz / Ragtime Annie
Blaydon Races
Gallopede
The Gay Gordons
The Humours of Scarrif / Some Say The Devil is Dead
The Siege of Delhi / The Earl's Chair
The Barley Reel
Yankee Doodle Dandy
The Mason's Apron / Drowsy Maggie
Circassian Circle
