Double Mud Pig 🐽

by: Rick Mohr

formation: Becket

A1 6
circle left 3 places
10
neighbors swing
A2 8
long lines forward & back
8
right diagonal ladles chain to shadow #1
B1 8
star left 4 places with shadow #1
8
partners allemande right 1½
B2 8
star left 4 places with shadow #2
8
partners swing

Rick Mohr notes: While enjoying Mike Boerschig's Happy as a Cold Pig in Warm Mud I wondered, could you enjoy flying stars with both shadows instead of just one?

This dance is the result. It's more accessible than you might expect for a dance where you leave the minor set twice, because finding your partner rights the set in both B1 and B2. In B1, watch for your partner in the other star and meet with an allemande; in B2, watch for your partner in the other star and meet with a swing.

I'm not usually a fan of "shadow / partner / other shadow / partner" sequences because you keep repeating the same longish sequence with the same people, and so don't mix enough. But because the stars in this dance involve a changing cast of neighbors, you get the thrill of flying to your partner twice without the tarnish of identical setups

Frederick Reel variation

by: Tom Hinds

introduces moves: down the hall, up the hall

formation: Becket

A1 8
down the hall and turn as a couple
8
up the hall and bend into a ring
A2 8
circle left 3 places
8
neighbors swing
B1 8
long lines forward & back ⁋
8
ladles allemande left 1½
B2 16
partners balance & swing

Bradley Smith Notes: The first time through the dance, the ladles allemande Left in A1 is with the couple that you start the dance with. Every time after that, the ladles have to look to the right to find the next ladle to allemande. It's a very simple progression that just requires reminding the ladles to look for the next ladle in line after the forward and back
