Hi

This is a mixer dance. Everyone goes out on the dance floor, picks a partner and starts dancing, then after a bit the whistle is blown and they switch partners. This goes on and on, they love it.

From what I gather foxtrot is the norm for this. I would like to play it at slightly different speeds, like as in faster to keep it more interesting, but of course this is for seniors, so the question is how fast is too fast for a rather long dance.

I'm playing some of the real oldies:

Who's Sorry Now
Somebody Else Is Taking My Place
Alley Cat
Wedding Bells Are Breaking Up That Old Gang Of Mine
Should I
Walkin My Baby Back Home
Doodle Doo Doo
Do You Ever Think Of Me
Elmers Tune
Souix City Sue
Goofus
Angry (remember Tiny Hill
And a bunch more of this type.
