A band asked me to call Sasha as we prepared for their monthly barn dance. Seems it was a favorite of that dance community. So I learned it for them and indeed, everyone was laughing and whooping it up. But warning: I then thought, how fun! Let's bring this dance into my home contra community too, as a spice between the line dances -- and was met with the hairy eyeball like you would not believe. :-p It was very interesting to discover the delicate nature of dance choice for different crowds. I still want to expand the variety at regular dances, though - albeit somehow more tactfully in future. Yeah, call Sasha for that ONS for sure!
