I spaced out when I wrote my earlier e-mail. I was thinking that the
balance would be after beat 16 in the B2 of 30 year jig. It would
actually be after beat 8. So, the dancers would be able to hear
where to balance after all. It's while they are swinging that the
melody is a bit crazy. It also occured to me that the beginning of
the hey would occur where the melody is crazy as well but this
shouldn't be such a big problem.

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
