Wild Aparagus is, in my opinion, one of the best if not the very best contra band in the states. They recently (April 2010) did a tour in Florida that included gigs at Tampa / Saint Pete (actually, Pinellas Park), Gainesville, O'Leno State Park, and Tallahassee. This video was shot in Pinellas Park (the Tampa Bay area) on April 16, 2010. Part 1 of this video is a medley of six contra dances. Enjoy! http://directorzone.cyberlink.com/video/23823
(The first dance sequence is "Get Me Going" by Lisa Greenleaf; the second is "A Dance for Dan" by Bill Olson; the third is Larry Jenning's variant of "Salute to Larry Jennings" by Ted Sannella; the fourth is "Expert Bits" by Peter Stix; the fifth is "Generation Gap" by Thankful Cromartie; and the sixth is "Butter" by Gene Hubert.)
