I had a great post ready this morning…a video of 1963 Ireland, complete with a wonderfully understated step dancer, an adept fiddler, and a very well-dressed early 60’s crowd. But alas, technical difficulties beset the best of my intentions, and no such post appeared. So, rather like a silent movie, I will insert a still shot and let your imagination provide the rest. Or, for if your imagination is on temporary vacation, you can click on this link,http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fYvU7oBBgKA and see if you can bring the actual video to life on your computer. Slainte, Lisa
Just like now, faster is not always better. The precision and accuracy of the player and dancer takes great talent. Love it! No technical difficulties on their part.
Love it. When I was a little girl I would watch the girls in their embroidered costumes dance on TV – I wanted to do that so much!
Yes, when I was little, I would dance in my room, and in my mind, I was leaping so high. 🙂 In reality, I was probably just clearing the level of the floor. But many happy hours were spent dreaming. Thanks for writing! Lisa
Ah——the 60’s ! Seems like everything was better then. But hey, when you are in your 20’s what isn’t better. (No , we did not have silent movies!)
Yes, everything is amazing in your 20’s…I always say that 27 was one of my very favorite ages. 🙂
