Becket-ized version of Tom Hinds' The Carousel, but without the chunky feeling of long lines forward and back (technically the slice is almost lines forward/back, but dancers can ooze it a bit more, especially since it's a slice and take).
Queue-less, not clueless, because this time The Carousel has no lines. Unlike my program, which at the time had 5 LLFB and one just had to go.

My own personal-choreography-discovered-accidental-variation of Weeks on the Road by Bill Olson, this one keeps the energy driving in the B1 leading up to the partner swing much better than the original choreography, which replaces the balance/spin right with a circle left 3/4.
