I have both versions, but a note that the Chain and then lines is the
original. The reasoning behind reversing them is that the long lines
gives you a chance to reorient before trying to do the chain on the
diagonal -- it makes it easier for newer dancers to orient to which way
is the left diagonal, which can be tricky for some folks to do directly
from a swing. It does help, but I think that the original version flows
better.

David,
Thanks. That is how I had it too. I have seen several videos online with
"reputable" callers (I do not remember who at the moment) and they were
doing the Forward and Back first and then the ladies chain. Do you think
that going from a neighbor swing to a ladies chain is awkward? Cannot
imagine anything by Gene Hubert having something awkward in it. I am calling
in Winston-Salem, NC Tuesday the 24th, and I am thinking of doing Double
Boomerang there. As you probably know, Gene Hubert started that series, so I
would much prefer to get it right.
Thanks for your help.
Rickey.
P.S. Any clearer idea yet when you might have time to call in Deerfield, NH
again.
