'''FIGHT ABOUT THE FIRESIDE'''. AKA and see "[[Road to Arisaig]]," "[[Strathspey in Memory of Angus Allan Gillis]]," "[[White Clover]]." Canadian, Strathspey; Scottish, Reel. Canada, Cape Breton. C Major: D Major (Goodman, Rook). Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (Surenne): AAB (Athole, Goodman, Gow): AABB (Dunlay & Greenberg, Dunlay & Reich, Honeyman, Kerr). A so-called 'double-tonic' melody. Fight About the Fireside is also the name of a Scottish country dance, first printed in the Gow's '''Five Favourite Country Dances for 1822'''. "[[Glenburnie Rant (The)]]" has become associated with the this country dance, as it is often the first tune in the medley played as accompaniment, and thus "Glenburnie Rant" is sometimes (erroneously) called "Fight About the Fireside." The tune was included by musician John Rook (Waverton, near Wigton, Cumbria) in his 1840 manuscript collection (p. 208), as well as by County Cork cleric and uilleann piper Canon [[biography:James Goodman]] in his large mid-19th century music manuscript collection (vol. iii, p. 166). | '''FIGHT ABOUT THE FIRESIDE'''.
