I hadn't considered it possible Call Sheet material, but perhaps it is. Presuming, of course, that there is material we can use instead of just more questions.
Some of my posting came from last night's MS class where we seemed to do more additional cuing than usual. A few more angels would have helped and it was an off night for some of the new dancers... such things happen. This morning, I was transcribing some C1 calling from a few prior ACDC fly-ins and started thinking about the nature of caller-dancer communications and whether our cuing is a help or hindrance and how cues might be offered in a more productive fashion.
I suspect there's no single best way to offer cues but perhaps there is a handful of general rules which might cover most situations and which could help newbie callers be more confident and earn the dancers' confidence. More thought is required.
