Which foot for tapping rhythm?

and when I tap

and try to refrain from tapping

Yep, I don't tap all the time either (prefer not to when I don't need to), but recognise that it helps me keep a tighter rhythm for dance tunes.

Ain't that interesting? When I'm playing for dancers, I tend not to tap at all.


... but maybe that's not what you meant ...

For dance tunes, Ben (you know, jigs, reels and stuff?)... frequently solo and rarely actually for dancers!

[Patrick D'Arcy]

You'd never see me tapping my foot

Because we're all staring at yer ugly mug and don't notice you tapping yer foot.

Ah. You did mean something different from what I thought. However, it's a separate point which is worth making, I think:

I bounce my legs wildly for dance tunes, but don't even tap my feet when playing for dancers.

I'd pay to see what would happen if you did the wild bouncy thing while playing for dancers. The mayhem...
