Re: [Callers] Dances for 3-6 couples - add'l note

Will, Here is a dance that I have called a few times, and I like it because it is a little different. It is phrased, although the timing becomes a little more critical with four couples. I hope it is something you can use. Richard Green T.A.G. by Roger Whynot Proper Lines of 3 or 4 couples A1 1's lead down center, turn alone come back Return & Cast around 2's. As they cast: A2 Gents turn LH star, Ladies turn RH Star(at same time) B1 When 1's meet, switch stars, lady passing in front. Keep star moving. Each couple switches as they meet. All switch back as they meet again When 1's meet again lead all to top, peel the banana, 1's make arch at bottom B2 Others pass under arch to top, 2's are now 1s -----Original Message----- From: callers-bounces(a)sharedweight.net [mailto:callers-bounces@sharedweight.net] On Behalf Of Will Loving Sent: Tuesday, October 14, 2008 11:23 PM To: Callers(a)sharedweight.net Subject: [Callers] Dances for 3-6 couples - add'l note I neglected to mention that I'm looking for dances that might be suitable for more experienced dancers. I've found a fair number of dances that can work well with a small number of dancers, but nearly all are geared towards beginner dancers, with only the most basic figures. Finding interesting dances that can satisfy more experienced dancers - near the end of a smallish dance or at a party - seems to be the challenge. Thanks to Richard for your suggestions, I will be following up! Is Nine Pin anything like the John McIntire's "Prime Minister's Breakdown", which I've heard described but never seen or danced and which I believe has a similar three-by-three formation?
