Yay! I hope I can *finally* teach the two dances I've found out
about.
Last weekend, I was at a gathering where I saw a dance done but not
called. I'm told that it's "the oldest figure dance" and "dates from
the '70s" (is that the 1570s or 1470s?). It certainly has the
appearance of a bransle, though with certain interesting variations.
However, I don't have the music or more information about it. Rest
assured that I shall research this dance, yclept the "Electric Slide",
in the hopes that I shall be able to present it at some point.
