[Callers] Bands Chain

Hello All, In the near future, I get to call for my first gender free dance. I'm looking forward to it, and thinking about my program. I was contemplating putting in Bands chains. The gents chain is a move that seems by and large ignored in conventional contra dancing; the occasional dance I've seen using it is usually greeted with grumbling. Are gender free dancers more open to the move? I was thinking of the following dance (where barearms are on the right after a swing) *A1* Neighbor Balance and Swing *A2* Promenade Neighbor across and courtesy turn Barearms chain across the set (pull by right) *B1* Barearms do-si-do 1x Partner swing *B2* Bands chain across (pull by left, courtesy turned by neighbor) Right Hand Star 1x I've sent the question directly to the dance organizer, and I'm cross-posting on facebook, but I also wanted to poll the folks here. Thoughts? Thanks. -- Luke Donforth Luke.Donforth(a)gmail.com <Luke.Donev(a)gmail.com> www.lukedonev.com
