If you want to see what was making them dance, have a look at this video.  It was taken in Ottawa on the day that Spain won the Soccer World Cup so this musical group was celebrating in an appropriate way.  I do not have the name or contact information for this group, so please send it to me if you know them so I can get permission to use this clip.
