Rickey, Tell the ladies that they allemande the new lady who is between their Partner and their Shadow and they are going to end up where she is, except facing out, with partner in left hand, shadow in right hand. I also tell the dancers they are not really out at the top and bottom, to stay alert for when they are needed. They will be needed as part of the long wavy lines curving around the ends (again, with partner in right hand, shadow in right hand) and to be alert for their cue to walk forward into a new wave of four. I don't tell the band what tempo to use for most dances since it might depend on the tune, but if it looks like the dancers are rushing to get to the next move, I'd signal the band to slow down a tad. I've never gotten tired or winded doing 3/33/33 and I'm not exactly in prime athletic condition, so that might have been a fluke. I see you are calling here in June. We may have too many beginners for it, but I would LOVE to dance Hussey Bride. I call it often, but other local callers don't use it much.

I did that and it went well, but good dancers got very tired and winded. What tempo do you use? Thanks also for the suggestion to call Bill Olson's The Hussey Bride. I did that too, and it went well except that in one of the lines a couple kept getting left out at the top. Again, mostly experienced dancers. The A1 is: Long Lines forward and back / Ladies Allemande Right 1 1/2 to cross the set and form long wavy line with the gents with the ladies facing out. A couple of us thought that several folks had trouble finding the lady to allemande with, especially when she was the next neighbor lady. Have you had similar experiences with this dance? What did you do about it? Thanks again, Rickey Holt, Fremont, NH ______________________________**_________________ Callers mailing list Callers(a)sharedweight.net http://www.sharedweight.net/**mailman/listinfo/callers<http://www.shared… ______________________________**_________________ Callers mailing list Callers(a)sharedweight.net http://www.sharedweight.net/**mailman/listinfo/callers<http://www.shared…
