Wonderful dancers, but so odd to see men being “the woman”, usually it’s the other way round!

Fabulous! Loved it!

lads have the gay apparel on tonight

Excellent wish I could still dance like this!

And everyone is named Gordon????

Where are the women?

This is FANTASTIC!! I love the all male sets!!! Hoorah!!!!

What is the music at 3:44 called?

Amazing choreography and dancing.

Are any of these guys called Gordon?

what a load of shit

Wow I am so EARLY 10 years

that is not the routine we learnt for the Gay Gordons, not even close, but it looks so fun!!!

But I wanted to see gay gordon, where he be? Where is the, I came for the, Gay GordON. Thy Gordon whichest be Gay.

The Gay Gordons is not a homosexual terminology...its actually a Scottish Accordion group Rob Gordon who played a distinctive style of Scottish dance sets involving reels and country dance sets in 4/4 time, and pipe tunes !

That is beautiful!

i'm a gay gordon 2! :D

Where are the lassies? its not a ceilidh without some nice lassies.

OK this is not Gay Gordons the dance. So, since it's all men I will go with the other meaning of the word, LOL.

Fantastic!

let it them swing under the kilt

If you want gay try morris dancing

What's the tune they use for the walk on?

Nice Bluestone 42 reference!

This is not the gay Gordon's this is ocaridoan strip the willow

Read the information provided below the video: the dance GROUP is called Edinburgh Gay Gordons (there is also a London Gay Gordons and a Manchester Gay Gordons.) The display is a choreographed amalgam of 3 Scottish dances - De'il Amang the Tailors, Wild Geese and Dashing White Sergeant.

What the hell is this this isn't gay Gordon's it like a weird mix of dances

What beautiful footwork!

Very entertaining!

But I have to say this about gay females - lesbians - they would be quite unsuited for performing the Gay Gordons - it is essentially a masculine dance and for an all female group to dance to it would look a bit strange to be honest with you.

If this involved a group of gay females - all of them lesbians - it's very likely that there would be no adverse or insulting homophobic comments being made in here....such double standard indeed. Gay men, gay women - so what's the difference? The dance routine being performed here - the Gay Gordons known to everyone here in the UK - is just wonderful.

I'll rephrase that...no one is claiming an ownership to be proud to be Scottish, just that anyone CAN be proud to be Scottish ;-)

And it looks to me that this clip means that everyone can celebrate Scottish culture and tradition , no one is claiming ownership of anything other than a proudness to be Scottish

That is fantastic! Well done guys. I have danced the Gay Gordons with, mostly, women over the years and love this interpretation. Looks like you all had a great time too

love it!!

gracias, Eduardo!

Well done!!!

I don't mind if someone's LGBT [lesbian, gay, bi-sexual or transgender] if they don't negatively impact others. They're pretty aggressive though; stole the word "gay" which previously meant happy & carefree, nothing to do with sexuality at all. The Gay Gordons is an old Scottish dance which had NOTHING to do with homosexuality, neither do kilts, a traditional Scottish heterosexual mans attire.

Gay does mean happy, homosexuals (males) use the term to describe that they're happy and unencumbered. So we haven't lost the word's meaning. Oh I liked the video.

These comments sound a touch homophobic in tone also they seem lacking in a basic grasp of the English language or indeed Scottish culture which has evolved merged and toddled along for a few centuries before you lot emerged on to god's earth.

“Gay Gordon's” refers to a Scottish popular 19th century ceilidh folk dance where all dancers share the same steps. It in it's turn refers in part to an honorable long established Scottish regiment, made up of “Men in Kilts originally”,unfortunately now disbanded.

The word gay has evolved from it's carefree and happy origins which I am sure you would agree is demonstrated in this video through it's main stream interpretation of homosexuality (there is a reference to the dance group here) to a more current interpretation of something that is silly or weak nowadays, which this video does not display. If you have ever tried doing any form of technical dance you would be aware of this.

Therefore as a visible and valid form of celebrating male culture, stamina and team working this is a good example. Unlike some other video choices ???

for god sake,Get another name....this name does not belong to you, so don't hijack it! We already can't use the word "gay" for anything, bringing to mind the WW2 song Gracie Fields song, "Wish me luck when you kiss me goodbye"..the word "gay' is in it, meaning HAPPY! This is name of a Scottish Dance, it is not yours to take!

When men in skirts dance together, what else can it be but.......The Gay Gordon?

Are these videos really from last year, or is the "2010" a typo?

Brilliant!

Can you please tell me what the name of the dances are and also what the music that goes with each dance is called.

very different. well done

That was just brilliant! Thanks for sharing!
