Goat dance played on PA 800 /600?

Post by Happy Jack »

Hi all, found the following video whilst searching for 'goat dance' references.

" Met a redneck on a Grecian isle, he did the goat dance very well.
He gave me back my smile, but he kept my camera to sell..."

It is Romanian folklore played for the Romanian community in Italy, Torino.
But i am afraid it's not actually "played", the melody is recorded on Intro1 or pads, i have seen it before :P
Current: PA4x76, Roland FP50, Pa900 turned into module
Past: Pa3x Le, Roland GW8, Yamaha PSR S750, P95

Thanks, Reidoo, for the explanation. That's an unusual dance and I love the goat and horse costumes. What seems bizarre at first glance, becomes sensible with a pinch of added knowledge. :-)

Here's an energetic ritual performance by the Witchmen Border Morris, (no goats but bears this time), at a 'Straw Bear' Festival. Music played by their own (non-electric) button pushers. :-)
