I also have put a lot of thought into making a public database of contra dances. I do agree that dances are probably not copyrightable, but my plan was to include a field for license. I was going to put on a bit of text on the website saying something like, "This is not legal advice, but if something is licensed by CC-NC, you're probably safe calling it at a paid gig, but we would ask that you not publish it in a book that you're selling."
