Mary Jo asked for a dance with a permanent ghost for when there are only 5 people for dancing and this is what I came up with.

Table rows with a green background denote recordings starting with one of the recommended tunes and the usual number of repetitions for the dance (?). A yellow background means a recording with one of the recommended tunes but a non-standard number of repetitions. Recordings with a red background use a different tune and possibly a non-standard number of repetitions.

Recordings whose titles are in italics are not explicitly linked to this dance but have been identified by the database based on the type, bar count, and recommended tune(s) of the dance.

Fun for Five

A fun dance for two and a half couples which also works very well without giving hands during the turns. While our dancers enjoyed this dance very much, they thought changing bars 29+30 with bars 31+32 would give it a better flow.
