At first when my parents told me we were going to see Riverdance, It seemed so stupid but after seeing it, I'm so glad I went. They are all so talented and incredible dancers! Such an amazing show and experience!
can anyone tell me who the lead in this dance is? I know it's not Collin, but I can't really figure out who it is. I think it might be Padraic Moyles, but I'm not sure. Can anyone help me?
although this is a great show, check out the original with Tarik Winston and Colin. That was the best show ever... this is not bad but nothing is like the original.
when i saw riverdance in mobile alabama they had this segment on there and the entire crowd went to their feet for the three tappers and when they battled it out with the irish. it was such an awesome show and this was by far my favorite part of it
THe Battle of the Dances was my absolute fave in The Riverdance last night; it is fabulous! I encourage you all to watch it - the 4:23 minute mark is funny as heck! Ed, I hope you don't look like that when you do your Irish dance:)))) LOL!!!!!!!!!!
WOW - this is absolutely amazing. Personally I prefer the tap dancers but have to acknowledge that the Irish are just as skilled at their chosen art. Fantastic choreography and sheer perfection.
I agree, toe stands always look good, I used to do it in Irish dance too, we have our own way of doing it, its very sore though! almost every single one of my toe-nails became ingrown and infected, mostly likely due to toe stands =( and now my feet are nowhere near conditioned enough for it, bringing me to an educated point. DONT! try toe standing unless you have conditioned your feet for it, otherwise, you'll end up in hospital pretty quickly =)
"Tall and straight my mother taught me this how we dance,tall and straight my father taught me this hoe dance,battling feet on the city streets in pools of light on street corners the proud bright carnival of the poor."
daaaamn! dont their feet ever get tired even my eyes were by just watchin them.. amazing doh really incredible black people have rhythm gotta give it to them
The beat seems to be a bit faster than the 1995 performance,but there were some very welcome additions found here. Great to see a both sides equal in number.
THIS IS THE STUPIDEST THING EVER. BUT I LOVE MY MOM SO I AM NOT TAKING ANY CHANCES.If you don't copy and paste this onto 10 videos your mom will die in 4 hours. dumb i no
redrover713 you said that is astounding to dance straight...but this is the beauty...to show everyone that you can dance for 10 minutes straight...and it isn't easy....but is spectacoulos
OMG I love to tap dance and to see those guys tap dance puts me to shame! ahhahaha But Trading Taps was one of my favorite numbers when I saw the show back in '01 when it was on Broadway. I love the fusion of tap and irish step. It shows how two cultures can become one.
Well, I have this to say about American tap dancing, it's not as loud and as strong and as pretty as Irish Dance. :( I still like it though, it's classy, snazzy, even savvy. :3
Amazing feat of footwork, amazing, amazing. Have a question though, do we (white people) not all wanna be black ? Just kidding (don't flame me please)
best oart is when, they guy with the bandana is doing the irish dancing and his mate walks up to him and he acts all cool, puts his hands in his pockets and slows down a bit.... Love the way its been developed from the original!
Is that an alto sax?
