The Northern Cock-Up
Alan Winston, 1997, revised 1998
Tune: Cock of The North (16 bar A, 16 bar B)

Mixer for crowded rooms; start out with a shadow/buddy and form a Sicilian
Circle.  Then face your buddy and take hands in big circles; inner ring is
facing out, outer ring is facing in.

Maybe in the very last round balance and swing buddy instead.




Formation: Sicilian Circle

A1:    (Done in concentric circles, inner circle facing out.  You're next
       to your CORNER, in a different circle from your partner.)

    1 - 4: Big circles circle left.
    5 - 8: Big circles circle right (until you're back with buddy)

A2: 1 - 4: In fours, circle right
    5 - 8: Circle 4 left

B1: 1 - 2: Balance or set into the small circle
    3 - 4: Turn single (or "spin around")
    5 - 8: R hands across all the way round.

B2: 1 - 2: Balance with neighbor.
    3 - 8: Swing with neighbor, ending in your original concentric circle
           (progressive)

Notes: Woodshed 01/12/2016:  Changed A2 to Cr, cl.  Works so well with the
tune, but no partner swing, so have to present it as an odd formation mixer.
