When you retire you can do it free, if you sign on as a member of the
entertainment staff, a friend danced all the way from UK to Alaska.

Hell, I coulda done dat long before I retired. I took off work
whenever I wanted and the little earnings shown on my forms W2 prove
it. I learned of the host program almost at its inception, perhaps
thirty years ago, but couldn't, and can't, bring myself t'do it. It's
Dancer's Hell! But thanks for the thought.

I was on a cruise that had a couple of dance hosts, each a mediocre
dancer, just the kind who would not suffer as would the rest of us. I
also know a couple of pretty-good dancers who do it and seem to enjoy
it. They're treated extremely well.

The trick for me is to find a dance cruise on which to be a host. That
would be great! Unfortunately, I know most of the promoters and they'd
feel ript off if I did that. I provide a calendar of events, including
cruises . . .

DANCE CALENDARS: accessed directly or through:
http://geocities.com/dancefest/

EVENTS Around The World: at least three days and two nights
Monthly view: http://calendar.yahoo.com/YYY,c0b200/dancefest/?v=2&t
Weekly view: http://calendar.yahoo.com/dancefest/

.. . . so I couldn't plead ignorance.
