New World Record for longest ever Riverdance line!

It's with much excitment and celebration that we can announce that a new Guinness World Record for the World's Longest Riverdace line has been set in the USA!.

Bill Lee from the USA read IDM's story ( Jan 08) about the current record holders and decided he knew a group of dancers capable of breaking it! And he was right! He did!... even in 90º heat!

In an IDM exclusive, Bill told us, "I decided to organize our own attempt here in the states. I am happy to announce that on July 20, 2008 at the 35th Annual Rockland County Feis, 312 dancers broke the Guinness World Record of 216 held by a group of Irish Dancers from Dublin Ireland."

Watch the video of their World Record here, and check out the November issue of IDM for a full interview with Bill and some of the dancers involved!

Well done guys and girls! We are so pleased for you!
