New Linedance: Sin City Swing, by Gary Lafferty
Please find pasted below the script for my new dance SIN CITY SWING. It's a 48-count 2-wall easy-intermediate level dance that was choreographed for our "Wish You Were Here" Las Vegas event that was held over the weekend.

The track is "Viva Las Vegas" by She Is The King, and it's a great fun up-tempo piece of music & hopefully the style of the dance matches the atmosphere generated by the music - it certainly seemed to do so at the weekend, where the dance proved really popular during the social dancing sessions following the workshop on Saturday morning.

The track is available from iTunes for just 79p, and please note that it's the Radio Edit that is the required version. "She Is The King" is the stage-name of an Australian female Elvis Presley impersonator (honestly! :-) and she is the only woman ever to be selected by Elvis Presley Enterprises to appear in the prestigious worldwide Ultimate Elvis Tribute Artist Competition; for more information, please visit her website at www.sheistheking.com

The track may be purchased here: itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum

My own website should be updated with the script & music sample within the next day or so.

You can find a video of the dance recorded at our WYWh weekend here :
