The Flower Power Jig (Highland Gathering Peine 2012)

Scottish Flowers dancing "The Flower Power Jig" at the 14th Highland Gathering in Peine.
First, there was the Red Hot Chilli Pipers tune & we decided that we wanted to dance to it... so I spent some evenings and a good part of a fine bottle of 18 year old Springbank Whisky putting together a dance that fit to the music.
To make it easier to remember all the figures, I borrowed heavily from dances our group knew and liked... the following dances were used as basis or inspiration:
"Nottingam Lace" by Jenny Bradley (my.strathspey.o...)
"The Piper And The Penguin" by Roy Goldring (my.strathspey.o...)
"The Dream Catcher" by Eileen Orr (my.strathspey.o...)
"1314" by John Drewry (my.strathspey.o...)
"The Sunlit Square" by John Drewry (my.strathspey.o...)
If the result is any good it is purely because I was standing on the shoulders of giants ;)
And yes, the chain in Bars 97-128 is neither a correct Ladies Cahin nor a correct Men's Chain - I have provisionally titled the figure a "Cross-Dressers Chain" as it is basically men dancing a Ladies Chain ;)
