This phrased dance has got a TAG & RESTART in 2 places, on the FRONT wall only.

On the front wall, you will hear the word shotgun. This word will come up twice on the front wall.

This is the clue for the tag & restart in the two places.


Start the tag in section 3 after 5&6 then re-start the dance.
7&8.	Triple ½ turn, left right left.

You should now be facing the front wall.

The actions are: hands out stretched to welcome the groom, holding a baby, digging a hole & holding a shotgun.


This is a fun dance & ideal for a wedding.
