How about "ARR-lemande left" and "dosados yer matey" (or neighb-ARR if that's
not redundant).
Of course ask the band for some hornpipes.
For simple costuming, rig an eye patch and do-rag (pirate style). A plastic
Captain Hook hook shouldn't be too hard to find (albeit usually children's
Hi, Angela,
I wrote two dances called "All Hands on Deck" and "Hold Fast." They both
sort of combine "Fast Hands" by Diane Silver and "A Pirate's Life for Me"
by Nathaniel Jack.
See www.duganmurphy.com/dances-i-wrote

How about:
Treasure of the Sierra Madre James Hutson
Forgotten Treasure Beth Parkes
The Seagull Erik Weberg
Golden Chain Nick Hawes
Ocean View Reel Donna Hinds
Woven Wave Cary Ravitz
Ride the Wave to Love JoAnn Kopanny
Dancing Sailors Ed Shaw
Night Sail Rick Mohr
Smooth Sailing Becky Hill

Jack's Sparrow is a four couple longways that works at most contras. The
two-hand turn by the profressed 1s at the end is often done as a partner
swing. https://youtu.be/CDTNZbQvkD0 . Helps if the band can play "He's a

These are all great suggestions, thanks all! Keep em coming!
After gong through my dances, I've also pulled out Bob Isaacs's "Double
Trouble," my* "Sharks in the Pond," and...*cough*...Luke Donforth's "Leave
'Em Hanging."
*written also with Lynn Ackerson, Bryan Suchenski, and Erika Rosenberg
For me a leisurely day and relaxed trip yields a better dance. I avoid rush

Also, cheap trick, but the gimmick of Maggie Jo Saylor's dance is
petronella turn and instead of the claps, shouting "yo ho!" -- can be
applied to any petronella turn set to a jig.

Not exactly pirate, but Hull's Victory is nautical theme with waves

Me neither, but the dance I'm calling tonight was sure to let me know! I
know there are a bunch of Pirate-themed dances out there (one that I heard

I know many of us travel some distance to call a dance, and some of us have
only a few miles to go to call. I'm curious in each situation, how your
pre-dance day is spent. What helps and what has hindered your calling might
be good too.
Thanks in advance for your input.
