Re: [Callers] Name this Robert Cromartie dance!
Jim: Yes, Vicki Herndon from Chattanooga, and I, Vicki Morrison from Tallahassee, are indeed two different people! Yes, I saw the video she posted on FB and I got in touch with her to make sure I understood the dance. The dancers in the video are a little hard to see, but perhaps it would clear up the confusion to watch it, assuming folks are able to open this link. Not sure if non-Facebookers can. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=10204059403144353&set=vb.1202573501&type=2&theater It is correct as I wrote it originally. When you go DTH, #1 lady on the end turns alone, #2 lady and #2 gent i the middle make an arch, the #1 gent pops through, the lady #2 twists around and #2 gent ends up on the outside and everyone is next to their partners. It's the same figure as April Blume just posted for a dance called "Pam's Four". Andrea Nettleton says the only name she knows of for this figure is "Right hand high, left hand low". Thanks for all the comments! If anyone ever finds out the name of the dance I'd love to know. I'm looking forward to calling it!

If the line gets inverted entirely, then Keith is correct that this dance doesn't work. Neighbors are on the same side of the set to start the lines down, so they'll be on the same side coming back up, which won't work with a partner swing next. I'm pretty sure I've danced this dance before, but with Lady 2 doing a normal right-hand-high, left-hand-low, while Lady 1 turns alone. If that's not Robert's instruction then we must be missing something with the dance.

I misremembered, the dance as I have it from Robert Cromartie is called “Dixie Gal”. The note about the Dixie Twirl move is: Dixit Twirl: don’t let go! Left-most leads under arch made by right-most pair to other side, right-most sweeps across to other side. Inverts the line, left-most down is left-most up. This is kind of like a “Right Hand High, Left Hand Low” except that it’s a line of 4, not just 3 (usually a gent and 2 ladies). I suppose it’s open to interpretation as to whether the “4 vs. 3” distinction warrants a different name for the move. I’ve also heard it described as a “California Twirl for couples”. I got it from Robert, don’t know when. I see that it’s published in Give and Take, my copy of which is at home.

I thought W1 was part of the inversion, thus ending up on the R end of the line once it was facing up. I was having the same confusion Keith was. So to clarify, lines of 4 down the hall after the N swing. W2 (2nd from the L) raises R hand to swap the gents, while W1 simply turns to face up. At the end of this maneuver all are next to their partners in the line o' 4, ready for to come back up the hall and swing. Have I got that right?

So, after that move, she is facing up the set, with her neighbor in her left hand, and her partner in her right hand. The first lady is on the left end of the set, facing up. So the balance and swing is on the side of the set, not in the middle. The gents do NOT stay in the same place after the down the hall; they switch places with each other when coming up.

Re: [Callers] [trad-dance-callers] Novelty & Gimmick Contras

Re: [Callers] Spring Cleaning
My taste in dances evolves. Recently I cleaned out many dances, especially glossary-type dances, that end with a ladies chain to face a new neighbor because I find it awkward, especially for new dancers, for the gent to escort the lady around and then turn to face his new neighbor and be there on time. I also have whittled down my glossary dances to a few intuitive ones that flow well since many of them are very similar.
