I should get myself back to Thursday at Springstep...
I've had terribly mixed experiences with it, the four or five times I've been -- mostly due to the different callers, I think, and the degrees to which they manage to speak clearly during the teaching moment, and then to watch whether the dancers have caught on or need ongoing coaching through the round.
The good rounds are great, the bad are just sad -- though the sad can be eased by a good partner, with a good attitude -- and the good partners can make the good rounds fabulous... But you knew all this :-)
(and I know *just* what you mean about the crushes...)
