Step Description by the choreographer, Grant Gadbois 604-684-2455
Notes by Biill Bader: Enthusiasm for this dance has been indicated throughout a
range of slower tempo "country blues" songs as well as faster "swing" songs. The
range of tempos this dance is suitable for is unusually large. This dance is not
advanced level, but dancing Blue Lights at full tempo to "House of Blue Lights" is
very challenging. Some instructors might prefer to use "Midnight Train".
