The dance a member has love for? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

limbo

'the dance' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'a member has love for?' is the wordplay.
'a member' becomes 'limb' (limb is a kind of member).
'has' says to put letters next to each other.
'love for?' becomes 'o' (I've seen this in other clues).
'limb'+'o'='LIMBO'

(Other definitions for limbo that I've seen before include "Period of uncertainty" , "neither here nor there" , "Dance - place of oblivion" , "Where things are unused or forgotten" , "Where things are lost or forgotten or being awaited" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
