Bonnie having fun with a Cape Breton reel on the practice chanter. Reels are tunes in cut common time or 2/2, and played pretty round. The reel has two accents (or pulses) to the bar. Check it out yourself. But, if you aren't tapping your foot, you better check your pulse to see if you're still alive. Follow along with Bonnie, she's very musical.
During a basketball timeout in the 14,000 seat WVU Coliseum, the cheerleaders dance to "That Good Ol' Mountain Dew". The Mountaineers were playing Winthrop and won the game, 70-53. WVU has an alumnus as the head coach in Bob Huggins. West Virginia's mens basketball team is now 7-1.
Scottish bell ringers at the Ligonier Highland Games in Pennsylvania. My first time experiencing this type of music and found it very enjoyable.

I was trying to decide whether you were tapping while you were taping. Are you? What a funny video.
Hey, I'm gonna' start calling Bonnie "Bonnie MacDonald." She's amazing on that recorder.
