Things have been quiet here for a little while, so I'm going to toss out a question:

What kind of tune would you ask for for the dance Take All of the Credit and None of the Blame (see below -- if anyone remembers the B2, please help with that too-- I had it on two cards, and I have a note on the one that I can find that what I have for the B2 is wrong....)

In any event, I just danced it recently and realized how much it crosses the phrase in the A2 -- the first balance comes on 1,2,3,4 but then the 2nd comes on 5,6,7,8, with the Hey crossing the phrase. The dancers had a little trouble figuring out where it should be when I was dancing (though it worked itself out after a few times through), but I think that with the right tune it could work well. It's a fun dance.
