Tags and restarts are for when you are dancing to "Two Out Of Three Ain't Bad" by Meatloaf.

TAG: On wall 6 facing 9:00, while dancing the last 8 counts of the dance, counts 1-2& are the same. Instead of turning ½ turn stay to that same wall and lunge right to right side, rock recover, then restart with left to left side on wall 6

TAG: On wall 7
1-2& Step left-to-left side, rock right behind left, recover on left
3-4& ½ turn left stepping right to right side, touch left foot behind right, ¼ turn left stepping left forward (this part is going to seem fast)
5& Facing 6:00 step forward right, step forward left
& Step forward right
&8 Step forward left, ¼ turn left, stepping right-to-right side

Restart dance stepping out left

RESTART: On wall 10 do the FIRST 8 counts plus the first 4& count on the next 8. So count to "12&" then restart, after lunge forward, rock recover back, rock recover, restart
