New subject: 40 bar dances (David Millstone)

12 Jul 2009

HI Chris,
Nils Fredland called "Major Hey" for us at a Rochester dance and it was a 
blast!
Needs some experienced dancers to keep it together:

Double Becket, 40 Bar
A1: Circle 3/4, Pass thru and Swing the one you meet
A2: Lines F&B
        Gents Allemande Left 1+1/2 to waves of 8 (partner in right hand)
B1: Balance R, L, Slide R
       Balance L, R, Slide L, face partner (looking along lines of 8 across 
hall)
B2: Hey for 8 (Partner by right, ...)
C:    Balance and Swing Partner

There's a shadow couple in the hey, and if the hall is crowded, have people
"tag" at the end of the hey, so the next person knows not to continue into 
the
next set!

 Hey,

A band I'm working with would like to play their favorite 40 bar jig
(AA=8+8 plus BB=12+12) at a dance sometime. I was wondering if anyone
had dances for this format and what their experience was calling them.

Thanks,
Chris Weiler
