Among the traditional festivals in Shenchi, the dry boat yangge is also a highlight. The dry boat is mostly performed in rural farmers' homes. During the Lunar New Year, it will be performed from the first day of the first lunar month to the second day of the second lunar month (Dragon Head-raising Festival). The purpose of its performance is to pray for good weather and good luck in the coming year. There are usually 6-7 people performing the dry boat. A female actress stands in the dry boat, called the "boat lady". Two people hold "lianxiang" in their hands, which is equivalent to the rudder. There is also a clown who holds a broken cattail fan in his right hand and a paddle in his left hand. His nose is smeared with white powder. He fans the cattail fan back and forth around the dry boat, which makes the audience laugh. The rest of the people beat gongs and drums on the side. The accompanying instruments include: big gongs, small gongs, drums, cymbals, etc. The dry boat is performed according to the changes in rhythm. After the opening gong and drum music ends, the performer holding the lianxiang will intersperse singing, and the accompaniment staff beside him will also sing along with the last lyrics after each section, but the gongs and drums will not stop.
