Re: Pre-Booking

I agree that pre-booking is not always appropriate but consider this 
situation:
The hall is large, there are 200 dancers.  You have a friend you very much 
want to dance with but said friend always seems to be so far away at the end 
of a dance, or is sitting on the opposite side of the hall, that if you don't 
pre-book something, you may never get that nice dance.  By the time you have 
made your way over to the friend he/she has probably found another dance 
partner.
