Re: [Callers] Another Name/Author Search

2008-12-29 Thread Liz and Bill 

Hi,

When I check the dance out, the progression is to the left (clockwise).
Someone help me with the terminology, I thought this was the usual way
for a Becket to progress, or  can it be either way?

Also the following dance by Gene Hubert has the same B part.

Boomerang   Becket (L/CW)

A1: LLFB, Right and Left Thru   
A2: Ladies Chain, Across Left Diagonal Ladies Chain,

Cheers, Bill
PS Any ideas of the reason for the name - Maybe the B part
is the boomerang where you get your partners back?

No, it does progress to the left.  My mistake there.  But the circle is the 
whole way.

A Pass Thru never includes a courtesy turn.  If it did then that would then be
a Right and Left thru (without hands, NE style).  Pass thru, then turn alone. 
If you do the dance as descibed it will play out just fine.  It is a circle
left the whole way, and direction of travel is reversed.  Hence, I believe it
is a reverse becket dance (but I dont have Gene's books to check).

Actually, I noticed that in Double Boomerang the PT across has a courtesy
turn, that would fix it.  This is from a website with his dances:

Duh on my part.  I walked it through from the ladies role.  Of course it
works with turning alone.

   When I diagrammed it, I couldn't figure out how to get you back to your

   This is a dance that I wrote down at a dance I went to a while back.
   Finally got around to checking it out and a) I don't know the name or
   author and b) it doesn't quite work.  It was a good dance, and did
   work, but I've obviously written something down wrong.  Does the
