Broom Dance

[livejournal.com profile] grikmeer asked about the Ankh Morpork stick and bucket dance.

The closest I can find is a broom dance.  (Many broom dances have circling choruses which could easily be done going around a bucket.)

They tend to be competitive, with one person trying to copy or outdo another.  Which could be why members of the Ankh Morpork Folk Dance and Song Society regarded them as dangerous.  I can believe someone breaking a leg in a broom dance...

Isn't the first rule of the Stick and Bucket Dance "You do not talk about the Stick and Bucket Dance...!" ;-)

DWCon awaits ...

If you are going to DWcon then it seems to me it would be a wasted opportunity if you did not organise some sort of morrisment!
