Dance club we left, returning after band's performance (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gigue

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'dance' is the definition.
(I know that gigue is a dance)

'club we left returning after band's performance' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'performance' could be 'gig' (I've seen this before) and 'gig' is found within the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for gigue that I've seen before include "Lively baroque dance" , "Small symphony orch." , "18th-century dance" , "dance music" , "Dance movement" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
