Hi All:
Faced with a largely beginner audience at a recent festival, I came up with the following
when the band wanted high-energy Petronellas in the A's. I suspect it isn't new,
but have been unable to find it in the usual sources. Thanks in advance for whoever has
the author/title; otherwise I'll have to come up with one -
Improper
A1. Balance, Petronella, balance, Petronella
A2. N1 balance, swing
B1. Gents allemande L 1 1/2, partner swing
B2. Circle L 3/4 and pass through, N2 dosido and form ring
Yes, I know - I need to write a new Petronella dance like I need a hole in my head. Some
things just can't be helped -
Bob

For a title consider one of these:
a) Hole in my head
b) Like I need a hole in my head
c) I need to write a new Petronella dance like I need a hole in my head.
d) Some things just can't be helped
I would tend towards a) or d)

Hi all, If in fact this IS a new composition, IMO, "Hole in My Head" is by far
the best title so far. Sort of a "no brainer" (hah hah). Other titles are too
long or will get mispronounced and therefore transcribed incorrectly..
AND, as Bob so clearly explained, there is certainly a place for new "easy"
dance compositions!!

Hi Bob,
I've using a very similar dance here in NZ. I viewed it as a variation
of Heartbeat contra. Necessity is the mother of invention. You are always
welcome to come here and work with our beginners!
Here are some videos from a few years ago.
http://youtu.be/Br9nXDqWC6w
http://youtu.be/aFPzOyxT05Q
A1 Balance the Ring, Petronella Turn Balance the Ring, Petronella Turn
A2 Balance the Ring, Neighbor Swing
B1 Gents Left Allemand 1 1/2, Partner Swing (on gents side)
B2 Circle Left 1 1/4 (12), California twirl
note: Sometimes use B2alt LLFB, CL 3/4, pass thru
I don't know if I was inspired by this video from 3 years ago of "Spring Break
Alias" called by
George Marshall which has a more complicated B1.
http://youtu.be/-1cPyJWm-g4?t=1m34s
This dance is related:
The Missing Piece Bronwyn Woods Improper
A1 Neighbor Balance and Swing
A2 Gents Allemand Left 1 1/2; Partner Swing
B1 LLFB, Ladies Chain
B2 Balance the Ring, Petronella Twirl; Balance the Ring, Petronella Twirl
note: can be seen as a variation of Kitchen Stomp by Becky Hill
Cheers, Bill
