Hi Callers;
The first dance is called by Tom Calwell of Toronto, and recently he told me
the dance is called Bicoastal Contra by Pete Campbell (of the band Footloose).
It actually starts with the neighbor swing;
A1. Neighbor balance, swing
A2. Gents allemande L 1 1/2, star prom/butterfly whirl
B1. Lades gypsy R, partner swing
B2. Ladies chain, star L
