[Callers] Super easy dances - do they exist?

Linda, thanks for bringing this topic up.  It sounds like might have  
a good collection of English village dances in your collection.  I  
think they're perfect for that group.  John is correct, get them  
moving right away.

I realize that the thread is super easy dances but I'd like to throw  
out another idea.

Maybe it's time to train them.  I don't think you can get them to be  
as quiet as you want but maybe you can get them to be quiet when  
you're teaching.  Those new to calling might want to think about  
demos, making sure that there's a payoff for being quite and  
watching.  The payoff/reward could be showing them a cool move or a  
fun way to dance a particular sequence etc. etc.  And if you can get  
them to laugh during the demo that's even better.

Thanks to everyone for the dances.  We are fortunate to have so many  
talented contraographers.
