Jack: Did you get the dance correctly? What was sent does not progress, and as I read it the A2 swing is with partner, not neighbor. As for a possible correction: Improper A1. 8,8 Star R, N alle R 1 1/2 A2. 2,8,6 Gents pass L, 1/2 hey (PR, LL, NR, GL), P swing B1. 8,8 Gents alle L 1 1/2, N swing B2. 8,8 R and L through, star L This shortens the P swing to an unsatisfying 6 beats. Same thing for the N swing in: Improper A1. 8,8 Star R, N alle R 1 1/2 A2. 2,8,6 Gents pass L, 1/2 ricochet hey (PR, LL, NR, G ricochet), N swing B1. 8,8 Gents alle L 1 1/2, P swing B2. 8,8 Ladies chain, star L Bob > Date: Sun, 23 Feb 2014 15:40:40 -0500 > From: [email protected] > To: [email protected] > Subject: [Callers] Fwd: New dean dance - is it new? > > Dean Snipes called me a few weeks ago with this dance asking if it had > already been written.
