This dance is performed in two groups, the banjo group and the guitar group, and just as the banjo and guitar compete in the music, so too will the two groups of dancers. When both instruments play separately, both groups will dance separately. When both instruments play together, both groups will dance together. The dance consists of five sections, W, X, Y, Z and A. W, X, Y are danced competitively between guitar (g) and banjo (b) groups. Z and A are danced together (g and b). The sequence for the sections is WXYZ, WXXYZ, AAAA, WXYZ, AA. It sounds complicated but if you listen to the music, the music will lead you into the next section of the dance. Start dancing just after he says "banjo" or "bandit"
