I know this has been covered before (I've
searched the archives)
but I figured others might want new ideas for programming dances
for this weekend.
I'm calling a dance on Saturday 2/13 with a Valentine's Day theme.
Thus far, I've come up with the following ideas (not in program
order yet)
Bob's Valentine - Chris Ricciotti
Gypsy 'Round Two - Tom Hinds
Pam's Clock-wise Valentine (2.5) - Seth Tepfer
Love Sting - Rick Mohr
Heart of Glass - Cary Ravitz
Spring Dance Romance - Dean Snipes
The Tease - Tom Hinds
Also thinking about:
The Country of Marriage - Susan Kevra
The Rendezvous - Dan Pearl
Caught in the Act - Donna McAllister
The Valentine's Day Massacre - Colin Hume (circle mixer, not sure
about the clap "massacre" progression)
Other ideas? Any dances with titles including "cupid" "arrow" or
"chocolate"?
I keep finding dances that are heavy on gypsy's, unequal, or have
lines of 4 down the hall and I don't want to make my program too
heavy on any of those.
Also, I've had a request (from the band) for a dance that begins
A1 with Petronella-style balance and spins. Any suggestions would
be appreciated.
Thanks!
