I’ll post my “unknown” dances over time so as not to overwhelm the list.

Here’s the first:

1s Improper

Down hall 4-in-line (1's in the middle), Don't turn around, back-up a few
steps, 1s arch while 2s go under to new couple (8)

Dosido the one you meet, Pass by and swing the next

Pass thru across set Right shoulder with Partner, turn alone; In normal
couples R&L thru across

LLFB, 1s Swing in middle


That's "Contra Madness" by Gene Hubert. It appears in Dizzy Dances I and II, 
but not on the web (as far as I know).

Thanks Everyone – I seem to be trying to solve a problem that doesn’t exist (or 
maybe it’s just me that has it).

 

I’ll post my “unknown” dances over time so as not to overwhelm the list.

 

Here’s the first:

1s Improper

Down hall 4-in-line (1's in the middle), Don't turn around, back-up a few 
steps, 1s arch while 2s go under to new couple (8)

Dosido the one you meet, Pass by and swing the next

Pass thru across set Right shoulder with Partner, turn alone; In normal couples 
R&L thru across

LLFB, 1s Swing in middle

 

Thanks

 

Jeremy

I agree with Paul. I find this a great part of our forum and easily

First of all, I think making changes is a bit premature -- nobody AFAIK
is complaining about the current stream of requests.  That said, Mailman
has the ability to create "virtual" mailing lists called topics:

https://www.gnu.org/software/mailman/mailman-member/node29.html

It would be straightforward -- once we agree on any topic names -- for
Seth/Chris to implement topic filtering.


Aahz speaks for me on this.  I don't find the current level any problem at all, 
and a sub-list tag
wouldn't be a problem either.

Do members have any thoughts about this?  Will it work?  How do we get
people on it? What are the issues?  Is there a batter / alternative
