How does one address the problem of the band/caller that "no one" likes?
More specifically, what happens if a band and/or caller "owns" a dance series,
but dancers don't want to go to their dances? (For whatever reason - they have
subpar skills, they're perceived as curmudgeonly, their repertoire is not
popular any more, they're passe aka same old same old, they're unfortunate
victims of vagaries of constantly shifting and subjective popular opinion,
etc.)
Is this really a problem that other organizers should worry about?
Why or why not?
And if yes, then what should/could another organizer do?
