Notes

The dance shares the same start as BOB, but has less challenging choreography in the second half to increase the opportunity to call it.

As in BOB, do not attempt to start the swing too soon in A1. If the men move straight across the set and the ladies are allowed to complete their gypsy, the men should flow into the partner swing.

Written on 27 Dec 2008 at the Berea College Christmas School and first performed there at the after-dance party.
