nice one, love the theme! "without clothing" indicating to remove a different number of letters from [o]gl[e] and [d]ance feels a bit awkward, as does the definition for 5a, but those are nitpicks. big fan of 3a and 4d :)
Oops, i thought i had written dances, my bad! And yes, 5a is a little obscure since I didn’t want to use a similar definition to 6a. Thanks for the feedback and I’ll fix this now!
Great puzzle, love 3a especially. I agree with nate about the 5a def, it still feels like it should clue for GRAMMYS, (“Metallica has seven of this”: “Metallica has seven _______”), something like “one of seven for Metallica” etc. feels a more natural way to clue GRAMMY singular. But yeah sort of nitpicky.
