border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Once again the viewing audience voted and the bottom six dancers were chosen from the results. The bottom six dancers “danced for their life” and the judges cut one guy and one girl. This established the Top 10 dancers. Starting next week only the voting audience will decide the fate of the dancers. The judges will only be on the show for giving their opinions, which we consider valuable in making a decision to vote.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tonight the bottom three Guys were Ryan, Victor, and Nathan and the bottom 3 Gals were Karen, Ellenore, and Mollee.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The judges were unanimous on their decision tonight on the girls. The judges were NOT unanimous with the guy choice. The gal cut tonight was Karen and the guy was Victor. Nigel commented that if he had his way, Nathan would be the one going home tonight because he has not grown since the beginning of the season. (We agree with Nigel)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Too Karen and Victor we at &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3366ff;&quot;&gt;AA&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;N&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; send our congratulations for making the Top 12 and even though the both of you are leaving tonight, “Let &lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;nothing&lt;/span&gt; stand in your way as you continue your journey to complete your dream.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3366ff;&quot;&gt;AA&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;N&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Final comment:&lt;br /&gt;After watching SYTYCD for the five previous seasons we think this Top 10 is by far and away the best ten dancers to reach this level of the competition. Each in themselves has something special to offer in their dancing, whether it’s technique or the simple fact that they are so far out of their specialty and conquering each weeks challenge. This is going to be one tough season to decide who to vote for and with that in mind, the dancers need to connect with the viewing audience through their dance. With the format change of the dancers partnering by random from next week on, the dancers will lose their comfort level of having the same partner each week. In our opinion this will be a deciding factor in deciding “America’s Favorite Dancer.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSHkYWgWDoEbRuR71i_qku9npZRj2xbJevXbYUNzoidTIcgfYYLsoKJwQhBZMfjRmDwtfMvyD73LaJEwBpFYfOL3XA6X5kr_csZ4ji_Mw_4KnNigScAHam3XfaW1mUYAEOfiFeyuxTFPM/s1600/Victor.JPG&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alaboutnothing.blogspot.com/feeds/1000817914262771466/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/287085436063318737/1000817914262771466' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/287085436063318737/posts/default/1000817914262771466'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/287085436063318737/posts/default/1000817914262771466'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alaboutnothing.blogspot.com/2009/11/so-you-think-you-can-dance-season-6_25.html' title='So You Think You Can Dance Season 6 Week #5 Results'/><author><name>Al About Nothing</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07035334984220202842</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='29' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2-6nDavX9ic6XQ5nu8JvQ7l6gTQEzvjbP_ZJ9ipZt2R3mK3ppS5QomknkBCi8bQiNvCJxP-D59V7ZboHwQsowGtJtpB6TWmMEKuHVXidTKhrAw3BUYcskUSf1CbtCIrc/s220/cooltext427532808.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvcP25BSU4wYwarHG3FLs6J9wn_yV2xj9SbsGxfFF0Ki30f1zk2IYJNe5v934XCcvpI86V0q9pBOYhxdP_HV9g0C1fbuXUiyA61dzFgLcT0tQu_hIHEsvbRsJSfxTEEoZFZEeMJg4Q4o0/s72-c/Victor.JPG" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-287085436063318737.post-5393147517874616789</id><published>2009-11-24T20:21:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2009-11-24T20:25:36.334-08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Britains got Talent"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="dance"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="dreams"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="entertainment"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="FOX"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="inspiration"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="music"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="So you think you can dance"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="TV show"/><title type='text'>So You Think You Can Dance Season 6 Week 5 Performance Top 12</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgV1Zr83rsp9JKdgifChrnA1thLi38c8F3BZs0p7QHjdUqQshhn5vGITqYSHHPrVN3uSICS7EVk3RGtQfhA7cPq4AOS67ck_Yl4p7XiP63aM8pM7_GnExeW1jXRnXTd6ESP7gBj0PxxmMQ/s1600/so-you-think-you-can-dance-auditions1.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5407892048340154450&quot;

border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; One again tonight the viewing audience votes and the bottom three gals and three guys will dance for their lives on tomorrow nights results show.  The judges will then cut one gal and one guy tomorrow night. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tonight all the dancers danced two routines.  This week is extremely important because it will decide the Top 10 and the Top 10 dancers will go on tour for a year when this season is over.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once the Top 10 are chosen the viewing audience will decide who gets cut based on the voting, the judges will only be on each show for their expertise opinions.  Also after tonight the couples will no longer be together, they will be picking partners at random each show starting next week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; The judges tonight were Nigel, Mary, and Adam.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Here is my performance review for tonight’s show by couple round one and two:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3366ff;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;1] Ellenore and Ryan&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Round one: Style Lindy Hop – Song “I have got to be a rug cutter.”&lt;br /&gt;Nigel said, “I really enjoyed watching that routine.”  Mary said, “That was tremendous the end was amazing.”  Adam said, “That was awesome you guys.”  I did not like the style, but the dancers did a good job it looked like. High energy and good execution of the moves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Round two: Style Broadway – Song “Razzel Dazzel”&lt;br /&gt;Adam said, “You guys nailed it!  Ellenore you are a rock star and Ryan you brought the character.”  Mary said, “Ryan you dug in and got the character.  Ellenore you are unique and I don’t think we have had a dancer like you on the show.  You are the ‘it’ girl because you have ‘it’.”  Nigel said, “Both of you were in character.  Great job.”  I completely enjoyed it and I am starting to like Broadway.  Very good.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3366ff;&quot;&gt;2] Kathryn and Legacy&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Round one: Style Jazz – Song “So Deep”&lt;br /&gt;Adam said, “Great choreography by Sonya.  You guys keep dancing like that you are going all the way.”  Mary said, “Legacy those ‘crab walks’ were outstanding and Kathryn you are ‘drop dead’ gorgeous and did a great job.”  Nigel said, “This was my favorite routine of the season.  Legacy I never thought you were musical until tonight.  Both of you guys were great.”  I thought this was an awesome routine and I agree with Nigel as far as this being the best routine of the season.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Round two:  Style Viennese Waltz – Song “You Guardian Angel”&lt;br /&gt;Adam said, “Legacy that was fantastic and Kathryn another great night for you.”  Mary said, “Legacy those were great lifts and Kathryn you are perfection.”  Nigel said, “You needed better movement and Kathryn you are gorgeous.”  I though this was a triple “wow”.  It was beautifully danced performance wise.  I also like the message Legacy delivered about “Hope” for everyone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3366ff;&quot;&gt;3] Victor and Karen&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; (A new couple this week)&lt;br /&gt;Round one:  Style Tango – Song “Montsorrat”&lt;br /&gt;Adam said, “Victor you had great poise and stature.  Karen you had great energy and both od you did a good job.”  Mary said, “Because you two are a new couple this week I did not think you could pull this off and you did.  I was surprised and you guys had tremendous quality and movement.”  Nigel said, “You guys had chemistry and it was beautiful to watch.  Victor that was fabulous and Karen you really have something special.”  This was another ‘wow’ for me.  Very nicely done and they had my full attention.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Round two:  Style Hip-Hop – Song “Moving Mountains”&lt;br /&gt;Adam said, “That was intense but something was missing.  I think the music threw me off.  The dancing was great though.”  Mary said, “It was okay, but not memorable.”  Nigel said, “I did not get anything I could hold on too out of that routine.”  I thought it was okay.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3366ff;&quot;&gt;4] Mollee and Nathan&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Round one: Style Hip-Hop – Song “Ring-a-ling”&lt;br /&gt;Adam said, “Mollee you had a couple of bobbles but that could have been because of your sore ankle, but you did look stressed and the dancing was soft.  Nathan you did great.”  Mary said, “The routine started slow and picked up as it progressed.  There were a few bobbles and I enjoyed watching.”  Nigel said, “That was ‘Hip-Hop 101’ you guys needed to mature.”  I thought it was soft and just okay.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Round two:  Style Can-Can (New style this year) – Song “Can-Can Suite”&lt;br /&gt;Adam said, “Nathan did better than Mollee but both did good.”  Mary said, “You guys ‘killed it’.  Great energy and made it enjoyable to watch.”  Nigel said, “You had great energy and were the perfect couple for this style.”  I thought Nathan was good and Mollee so-so.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3366ff;&quot;&gt;5] Russell and Noelle&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Round one: Style Samba – Song “Hips don’t lie”&lt;br /&gt;Adam said, “I enjoyed it but it was a little too nice.  Both great dancers, but I needed more.”  Mary said, “The performance level was phenomenal and Russell you brought the joy.”  Nigel said, “Noelle you seemed to dance it too ‘clinical’ and Russell good job.”  I though it had high energy and I really liked the moves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Round two:  Style Contemporary – Song “A case of you”&lt;br /&gt;Adam said, “You guys were gorgeous and the opening was one of my favorite moments this season.”  Mary said, “That was a special routine, it flowed from beginning to end.  It was ‘out of this world’.”  Nigel said, “Noelle you were totally committed and Russell your technique is getting better each week.”  I though it was beautifully danced and the paint was a nice touch.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3366ff;&quot;&gt;6] Ashleigh and Jakob&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Round one: Style Lyrical Jazz – Song “Time Flies”&lt;br /&gt;Adam said, “That was so beautiful I don’t know what to say.  Jakob you are a privilege to watch and Ashleigh that was excellent.”  Mary said, “You guys had great chemisty.  Jakob your passion and technique is great and Ashleigh you have grown a hug amount.”  Nigel said, “I take back what I said about Sonya’s Jazz routine being the best, this was.  You two as a couple give too each other what each needs.  Great job.”  I thought it was very nicely danced, but likes Sonya’s Jazz routine better.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Round two:  Style Cha-Cha – Song “Cha-Cha Heels”&lt;br /&gt;Adam said, “Jakob you did a good job and asked Ashleigh if we were welcome to her world?”  (This is Ashleigh’s specialty).  Mary said, “Ashleigh it does not gate any better than that.  Jakob you were sharp and there for her.”  Nigel said, “Great job both of you.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3366ff;&quot;&gt;AA&lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;N&lt;/span&gt; “Comments”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You need to remember that the couples all have been together for several weeks and that showed in tonight’s performances, but this competition is to chose one dancer and not a couple.  After tonight when the couples are broken up and begin choosing a partner randomly, things will definitely be a different ball game.  Now I am by far not an authority on dance styles, I have to listen to the judges about that.  I do know when I am entertained and what I look for is in a routine which dancer of a pair gets my attention.  I also look for the dancer that is not even close to his or her style (specialty) and I am entertained by that individual.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Tonight was awesome and I am looking forward to tomorrow nights results and to begin the Top 10 count down starting next week.  Bravo to all the couples on tonight’s show!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; I have &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;nothing&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; to add except this show “rocks!”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alaboutnothing.blogspot.com/feeds/5393147517874616789/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/287085436063318737/5393147517874616789' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/287085436063318737/posts/default/5393147517874616789'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/287085436063318737/posts/default/5393147517874616789'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alaboutnothing.blogspot.com/2009/11/so-you-think-you-can-dance-season-6_24.html' title='So You Think You Can Dance Season 6 Week 5 Performance Top 12'/><author><name>Al About Nothing</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07035334984220202842</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='29' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2-6nDavX9ic6XQ5nu8JvQ7l6gTQEzvjbP_ZJ9ipZt2R3mK3ppS5QomknkBCi8bQiNvCJxP-D59V7ZboHwQsowGtJtpB6TWmMEKuHVXidTKhrAw3BUYcskUSf1CbtCIrc/s220/cooltext427532808.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgV1Zr83rsp9JKdgifChrnA1thLi38c8F3BZs0p7QHjdUqQshhn5vGITqYSHHPrVN3uSICS7EVk3RGtQfhA7cPq4AOS67ck_Yl4p7XiP63aM8pM7_GnExeW1jXRnXTd6ESP7gBj0PxxmMQ/s72-c/so-you-think-you-can-dance-auditions1.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-287085436063318737.post-4181770205045092553</id><published>2009-11-18T18:15:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2009-11-18T18:19:16.620-08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="believe"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="dance"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="dreams"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="entertainment"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="FOX"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="inspiration"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="So you think you can dance"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="talent"/><title type='text'>So You Think You Can Dance Season 6 Week #4 Results</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiu651uEvOrE7JT0j8i37RyZE9vcwzuXLjjS7AkdNeKJTTUiYbbf4Ckkm-oaR8CGZbRrAZ85-8jMkLrtvvL3pViF0fw4ZSxORuh1GshAJ0j_ZYPufD6q9E-6shpwqRhKAWWU1dR0kDloFo/s1600/Kevin.JPG&quot;&gt;&lt;img id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5405633232194942834&quot;

Bottom 3 Guys were Kevin, Victor, and Nathan.  The bottom 3 Gals were Karen, Channing, and Mollee.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; This week I totally agree with the viewing audience on the bottom 6 picks.  Way to go America you rock!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; So the bottom six all danced for their lives and the Gal cut was Pauline and the Guy Peter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Last week Nigel warned the dancers that he did not think anyone of them danced with any emotion or showed off their talent in their specialty.  This week Nigel commented that the dancers did much better.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; The judges were unanimous on their decision tonight.  The gal cut tonight was Channing and the guy was Kevin.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Too Channing and Kevin we at “&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3366ff;&quot;&gt;AA&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;N&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;” send our congratulations for making the Top 14 and even though the both of you are leaving tonight, “Let &lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;nothing&lt;/span&gt; stand in your way as you continue your journey to complete your dream.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Next week will be the Top 12 and each dancer will be doing two routines.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alaboutnothing.blogspot.com/feeds/4181770205045092553/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/287085436063318737/4181770205045092553' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/287085436063318737/posts/default/4181770205045092553'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/287085436063318737/posts/default/4181770205045092553'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alaboutnothing.blogspot.com/2009/11/so-you-think-you-can-dance-season-6_18.html' title='So You Think You Can Dance Season 6 Week #4 Results'/><author><name>Al About Nothing</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07035334984220202842</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='29' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2-6nDavX9ic6XQ5nu8JvQ7l6gTQEzvjbP_ZJ9ipZt2R3mK3ppS5QomknkBCi8bQiNvCJxP-D59V7ZboHwQsowGtJtpB6TWmMEKuHVXidTKhrAw3BUYcskUSf1CbtCIrc/s220/cooltext427532808.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiu651uEvOrE7JT0j8i37RyZE9vcwzuXLjjS7AkdNeKJTTUiYbbf4Ckkm-oaR8CGZbRrAZ85-8jMkLrtvvL3pViF0fw4ZSxORuh1GshAJ0j_ZYPufD6q9E-6shpwqRhKAWWU1dR0kDloFo/s72-c/Kevin.JPG" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-287085436063318737.post-1658573528318163311</id><published>2009-11-17T20:29:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2009-11-17T20:33:53.354-08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="believe"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="dreams"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="entertainment"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="fame"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Family"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="FOX"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="inspiration"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="So you think you can dance"/><title type='text'>So You Think You Can Dance Season 6 Week 4 Performance Top 14</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFFVXyoCMcBhMlAwx-egVfjO6pe544d7zgHgChQwLqBdMAJkO-XS7CLhpqnyYx9oUPKXPws4Zjz_JjUaOhibPIARCy-n7gFT3_SMCuz6LPLrDXlMSfdJnxvLJBDQfvBtQq_5t8iMG-6xg/s1600/so-you-think-you-can-dance-auditions1.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5405296359557973074&quot;

border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; One again tonight the viewing audience votes and the bottom three gals and three guys will dance for their lives on tomorrow nights results show.  The judges will then cut one gal and one guy tomorrow night.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; The judges tonight were Nigel, Mary, and Adam.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Here is my performance review for tonight’s show in the order performed:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3366ff;&quot;&gt;1] Ashleigh and Jakob&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; – Style Hip-Hop – Song “Whatcha say”&lt;br /&gt;Nigel said, “Jakob every week you are challenged and you deliver.  Ashleigh you are growing faster then anyone I have ever seen.  Mary said, “Ashleigh you are a star tonight.  Jakob you always hit it.”  Adam said, “Jakob you will be in the Top 10 for sure.  Ashleigh originally I did not believe you would make it, but tonight you made me a believer.”  I have to agree with Adam, I have not been a big fan of Ashleigh, but tonight she made me a believer and I think it was her best performance ever.  Great job!  I have to agree with Nigel on Jakob, he will be a top 10 dancer this season.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3366ff;&quot;&gt;2] Kevin and Karen&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; – Style Broadway – Song “If my friends could see me now.”&lt;br /&gt;Nigel said, “Karen I did not like your performance.  Kevin I did not like yours either.”  Mary said, “I agree with Nigel, neither one of you were in your characters and in Broadway that is a must.”  Adam said, “Kevin I was amazed you even got through that routine you being a “hip-hoper.  Karen you were okay.”  I did not like the routine and thought it was a ho hum.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3366ff;&quot;&gt;3] Russell and Noelle&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; – Style Fox Trot – Song “Baby (You got what it takes)”&lt;br /&gt;Nigel said, “Russell you have vastly improved in the last few weeks.  You are still a star and incredible.  Noelle You fight each week for yourself and you are doing it.”  Mary said, “Russell that was excellent you made it look easy.  Noelle you are gorgeous, elegant, I am proud of both of you.”  Adam said, “That was a joyful performance and it was fantastic.”  I though it was very good.  They had chemistry and it was very entertaining.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3366ff;&quot;&gt;4] Channing and Victor&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; – Style Jazz – Song “Blackbird”&lt;br /&gt;Nigel said, “Channing you looked like you were enjoying yourself and that made me enjoy myself.  Victor you grew beyond belief before and now you seem to be slowing.  You are a superb dancer.”  Mary said, “Victor you are consistently good and now you need to go deeper.  Channing you were strong and that was fun.  Very good.”  Adam said, “Channing you are finding your way in this show.  Victor you are still great and need to grow.”  I always like a Ty routine and this one was another good one.  It was fun routine and the dancers did a good job making it entertaining.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3366ff;&quot;&gt;5] Kathryn and Legacy&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; – Style Paso Doble – Song “Pursuit”&lt;br /&gt;Nigel said, “Legacy I always see you practicing and that passion will get you to the Top 10.  Kathryn you matured this week and you brought it big time.”  Mary said, “Legacy you were ‘crazy’ (In a good way) again.  You were right on.  Kathryn you were spot on tonight and both of you were perfect.”  Adam said, “Legacy you have been growing since Vegas and are an inspiration.  Kathryn you ‘killed it’ tonight that was perfect tonight.”  I have to say that usually I don’t like this style at all but tonight these two had my attention from beginning to end.  Both dancers were way out of their element / specialty and they nailed it.  That was and awesome performance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3366ff;&quot;&gt;6] Ellenore and Ryan&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; – Style Contemporary – Song “Your Ex-Lovers Dead”&lt;br /&gt;Nigel said, “I think this was the best routine of the night.  Ryan those were great lifts and I think you are the best ballroom dancer doing contemporary.  Ellenore you become the character in every routine you do.  You are a complete dancer and performer.”  Mary said, “Ellenore you are a perfect blend of star quality.  Ryan you have perfect timing and an inspiration to ballroom dancers everywhere.”  Adam said, “You guys took my breath away with that routine.  Thank you both, that was an honor to watch.”  I really like the routine and the dancing.  It was enjoyable to watch.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3366ff;&quot;&gt;7] Mollee and Nathan&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; – Style Pop / Jazz – Song “Bad Romance”&lt;br /&gt;Nigel said, “it was far better than last week.  Nathan you are one of the most talented dancers we have had on this show but you need to grow.  Other dancers are passing you up.  Mollee you have the talent to be great because you are so committed.”  Mary said, “That was very good, but I did not get any chills.”  Adam said, “You guys now know that this will not come very easy, but you guys worked hard this week.  Good job.”  I agree with Nigel when he said, “This was far batter than last week.”  Anything would have been better than last week and this week was a “so-so”.  I think the choreographer made them good this week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3366ff;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;AA&lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;N&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;“Best of Night”&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; performance – Legacy and Kathryn.  Even though Nigel liked Ryan and Ellenor’s routine we think that the deciding factor is “growth”.  We looked at what the dancers “specialty” is and we thought that the biggest stretch came from Legacy and Kathryn.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have &lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;nothing&lt;/span&gt; further to add tonight except that The Dizzyfeet Foundation is having a special November 29th called “Celebration of Dance” to be held at The Kodak Theater.  Tickets can be purchased on their web-site.  &lt;a href=&quot;http://dizzyfeetfoundation.org/&quot;&gt;Click here&lt;/a&gt;.  This is a fund raiser for the foundation to donate to schools for children to enjoy the dance experience.  Eight scholarships have already been granted and the eight dancers will be dancing at the coming show.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Tune in tomorrow night for the audience voting results show.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alaboutnothing.blogspot.com/feeds/1658573528318163311/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/287085436063318737/1658573528318163311' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/287085436063318737/posts/default/1658573528318163311'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/287085436063318737/posts/default/1658573528318163311'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alaboutnothing.blogspot.com/2009/11/so-you-think-you-can-dance-season-6_17.html' title='So You Think You Can Dance Season 6 Week 4 Performance Top 14'/><author><name>Al About Nothing</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07035334984220202842</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='29' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2-6nDavX9ic6XQ5nu8JvQ7l6gTQEzvjbP_ZJ9ipZt2R3mK3ppS5QomknkBCi8bQiNvCJxP-D59V7ZboHwQsowGtJtpB6TWmMEKuHVXidTKhrAw3BUYcskUSf1CbtCIrc/s220/cooltext427532808.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFFVXyoCMcBhMlAwx-egVfjO6pe544d7zgHgChQwLqBdMAJkO-XS7CLhpqnyYx9oUPKXPws4Zjz_JjUaOhibPIARCy-n7gFT3_SMCuz6LPLrDXlMSfdJnxvLJBDQfvBtQq_5t8iMG-6xg/s72-c/so-you-think-you-can-dance-auditions1.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-287085436063318737.post-7977612811522069059</id><published>2009-11-11T18:08:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2009-11-11T18:12:31.460-08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="believe"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="dance"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="dreams"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="entertainment"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="fame"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Family"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="FOX"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="inspiration"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="So you think you can dance"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="TV show"/><title type='text'>So You Think You Can Dance Season 6 Week #3 Results</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVrEXSg30TAUzrPUbZYL97QCHhtEgwpoGaxmHIqSKvarCcogDY382gWCPgJWIiuQz8WeXfo7WB9Qi0r-ePWFUxfu-w7wmCMlhxbqqlPKeuVMskE2sERWfXtlwwpo7Y93lH-0dmu1kPUf8/s1600-h/Peter.JPG&quot;&gt;&lt;img id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5403033653352243970&quot;

The opening dance tonight was all the dancers dancing to “Warrior’s 2”  I thought it was a very good job done by all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The bottom three gals and guys were then revealed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Bottom 3 Guys were Ryan, Peter, and Kevin.  The bottom 3 Gals were Elenore, Pauline, and Karen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; In my opinion Kevin and Karen should &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3366ff;&quot;&gt;NOT&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; have been in the bottom group, it should have been Mollee and Nathan.  Mollee and Nathan were terrible last night and frankly have not done all that good up to then.  Kevin and Karen “killed” their routine last night.  Come on America, it’s called dancing not popularity!  (Sigh)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; So the bottom six all danced for their lives and the Gal cut was Pauline and the Guy Peter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Too Peter and Pauline we at “&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3366ff;&quot;&gt;AA&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;N&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;” send our congratulations for making the Top 20 and even though the both of you are leaving tonight, “Let &lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;nothing &lt;/span&gt;stand in your way as you continue your journey to complete your dream.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Next week will be the Top 14.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6BmUZb6z4H-QwqqPScffxOi2OELU18Zs3E6QjtPq0GRW03CzxvHJKRLTdFxV_nIZbcKw0uUO59ctnLy1-wLQ2tPLZencByGftrh-_8S2S5LJFcPqTE9cjN-KGXrvv9JBEnBWsO7xLREk/s1600-h/Pauline.JPG&quot;&gt;&lt;img id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5403033507672811378&quot;

border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;  Tonight the viewing audience votes and the bottom three gals and three guys will dance for their lives on tomorrow nights results show.  The judges will then cut one gal and one guy tomorrow nigh..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; The judges tonight were Nigel, Mary, and Adam.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Here is my performance review for tonight’s show in the order performed:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3366ff;&quot;&gt;1] Kevin and Karen&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; – Style Hustle – Song “Come To Me”&lt;br /&gt;Adam said, “You guys made it work. You both owned it. Fantastic.”  Mary said, “Amazing, very good.”  Nigel said, “Kevin you delighted me and Karen you bring something new every week.”  I thought it was a “wow”, very good.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3366ff;&quot;&gt;2] Ashleigh and Jakob&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; – Style Jazz – Song “Relax”&lt;br /&gt;Adam said, “Ashleigh you belong on this show.  Jakob you are strong and flexible at the same time.”  Mary said, “This is a perfect partnership.  Ashleigh is growing and Jakob is brilliant.”  Nigel said, “Ashleigh you are growing each week and Jakob you remind me of Joel Grey.”  I thought this was a great routine and liked it very much.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3366ff;&quot;&gt;3] Pauline and Peter&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; – Style The “dreaded” Quick Step – Song “Hey Baby!”&lt;br /&gt;Adam said, “There were some missteps, but Peter you were on fire and Pauline you are adorable.”  Mary said, “You guys pulled it off.  The performance was amazing.”  Nigel said, “I don’t really caer about the technique, the performance was great.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3366ff;&quot;&gt;4] Kathryn and Legacy&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; – Style Broadway – Song “I wanna be like you”&lt;br /&gt;Adam said, “Kathryn you needed more character, but the dancing was good.  Legacy you have taken a huge step in your growth.”  Mary said, “Adorable routine and Legacy you are growing by leaps and bounds.”  Nigel said, “Kathryn I was a little disappointed in your dancing.  It was somewhat childish.  Legacy you are terrific and an inspiration.”  I don’t really like Broadway but I really like this routine.  Excellent job!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3366ff;&quot;&gt;5] Channing and Victor&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; (New couple this week) – Style Contemporary – Song “Be Be your Love”&lt;br /&gt;Adam said, “this is a good partnership.  Beautiful routine and good quality of movement.”  Mary said, ”Beautifully done.  Tremendous job.”  Nigel said, “Technically danced well. It was a tough routine for a new couple.”  I liked this new couple.  Very good job.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3366ff;&quot;&gt; 6] Ellenore and Ryan&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; – Style Hip Hop – Song “Lost Boiz Anthem”&lt;br /&gt;Adam said, “You did good, a yeomans job.  Ryan this was a huge step for you.”  Mary said, “It wasn’t great, but good.”  Nigel said, “Not good at all.  The style wasn’t there in the dancing.”  I agree with Nigel, not good at all.  Last week was a “bravo” this week a “yuck.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3366ff;&quot;&gt;7] Mollee and Nathan&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; – Style Salsa – Song “Quinbara”&lt;br /&gt;Adam said, “Not good at all. Your weakness was exposed.”  Mary said, “That was french fried and not a bright moment.”  Nigel said, “From beginning to end that did not work.”  I like this couple but I must agree with the judges, it was not good at all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;8] Russell and Noelle&lt;/strong&gt; – Style Afro Jazz – Song “Frog Dance”&lt;br /&gt;Adam said, “There was an enormous amount of joy and character and both of you were committed to the routine. Fantastic!”  Mary said, “That was “Crazy” (In a good way).  Both of you gave me far more than expected.”  Nigel said, “I loved the routine.  Russell no question you are a star this season and living up to it.  Noelle that was a good job.”  I thought this was an excellent routine and I completely enjoyed it.  I am amazed constantly by Russell who is way out of his element and dancing excellent every week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;AA&lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;N&lt;/span&gt; “Best of Night”&lt;/strong&gt; performance – Russell and Noelle&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have &lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;nothing&lt;/span&gt; further to add tonight except that The Dizzyfeet Foundation is having a special event later this month.  Please visit the web site for details.  &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.blogger.com/dizzyfeetfoundation.org&quot;&gt;Click Here&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Last week Brandon was called in to take the place of Billy.  He only had one and one half days to prepare for the performance. Because the rules say that if a contestant makes the Top 20 they can not come back for another season.  Nigel said, “Because of the circumstances surrounding Brandon coming back he was going to talk with the folks at FOX and see if he could get that rule wavered for Brandon. UPDATE – FOX waved the rule and Brandon can return next year for the auditions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nigel commented “Two “tappers” gone tonight and that breaks my heart.”  We agree 1000%.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Too Phillip and Bianca we at “AA&lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;N&lt;/span&gt;” send our congratulations for making the Top 20 and even though the both of you are leaving tonight, “Let&lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt; nothing&lt;/span&gt; stand in your way as you continue your journey to complete your dream.” &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alaboutnothing.blogspot.com/feeds/7186430808812906713/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/287085436063318737/7186430808812906713' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/287085436063318737/posts/default/7186430808812906713'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/287085436063318737/posts/default/7186430808812906713'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alaboutnothing.blogspot.com/2009/11/so-you-think-you-can-dance-season-6.html' title='So You Think You Can Dance Season 6 Week #2 Results'/><author><name>Al About Nothing</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07035334984220202842</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='29' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2-6nDavX9ic6XQ5nu8JvQ7l6gTQEzvjbP_ZJ9ipZt2R3mK3ppS5QomknkBCi8bQiNvCJxP-D59V7ZboHwQsowGtJtpB6TWmMEKuHVXidTKhrAw3BUYcskUSf1CbtCIrc/s220/cooltext427532808.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhH0AKpu7lyszdcvHgd4RUfGzQnUleFxSWAYeisQb0R8YBHwRBJx5gR7noCZxEUBE16pbu_bX_TscLwiTQbA-243Osc-Y8WR_FEcf4swcG0e8wJGFRbUXyRqYrVbyphLaOUwfNZ1Ww2xh0/s72-c/Phillip.JPG" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-287085436063318737.post-5218582993597972958</id><published>2009-10-27T20:48:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-27T20:51:16.597-07:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="dance"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="dreams"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="entertainment"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Family"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="FOX"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="inspiration"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="music"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="So you think you can dance"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="TV show"/><title type='text'>So You Think You Can Dance Season 6 Week 1 Performance</title><content type='html'>To start it was announced that Billy Bell had to leave the show because of illness and Noelle would not be performing tonight because of a knee injury. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Noelle was scheduled for an M.R.I this week and hopefully will be back next week.  If she does not return, she will cut from the show.  We here at ABN hope you return next week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; The Billy news is also a disappointment.  Billy is a very gifted dancers and I for one was looking forward to this season watching Billy dance.  Billy, we here at ABN are wishing you a speedy recovery and hope to see you again later in your journey.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Also it was announced tonight that the judges will be making the decision as to who will be leaving the show.  The announcement will be made at the end of the show. (I have already posted the results.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; The judges tonight were Nigel, Mary, and Adam.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Here is my performance review for tonight’s show in the order performed:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1] Channing and Phillip – Style Jive&lt;br /&gt; Nigel said, “Phillip was good and Channing needed more balance.”  Mary said, “Not bad, wants more from the couple.”  Adam said, “Phillip, good job.  Channing surprised me in a good way.”  I thought it was a so-so performance.  No chemistry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2] Ashleigh and Jakob – Style Broadway&lt;br /&gt;Nigel said, “Ashleigh good job.  Jakob you are one of the most gifted dancers I have ever seen.”  Mary said, “Ashleigh excellent and Jakob, you were perfect.”  Adam said, “Ashleigh needs to finish the lines of the dance moves.  Jakob, you are setting the standard for dance this season.”  I thought it was a good routine and Jakob was excellent.  His dancing was awesome.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3] Peter and Ariana – Style Hip-Hop&lt;br /&gt;Nigel said, “I missed the theme.  Not a very good job.  You both need more.”  Mary said, “It was sloppy in the middle.”  Adam said, “Something was missing.  You did not move together at all.”  I thought it started good, and there was good energy.  I have to agree with the pair not dancing together, it made the dance fractured.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4] Russell and Noelle (Melody the choreographer of the routine) stood in for Noelle.&lt;br /&gt;Nigel said, “You just proved why children need to learn dance in school.  You were totally out of your element and did a very good job.  You are an&lt;strong&gt; &lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff9966;&quot;&gt;inspiration&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; to others.”  Mary said, “You did a respectable job.  You were spot on in the beginning.”  Adam said, “That was amazing, fantastic job.”  I agree, Russell is a “Crumper” and was completely out of his element.  Great job!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5] Bianca and Victor – Style Contemporary&lt;br /&gt;Nigel said, “You’re the most connected couple yet.  Bianca you are growing and Victor that was excellent.”  Mary said, “Bianca good job and great energy.  Victor, you took this dance to another level.”  Adam said, “Bianca that was very good, but you need more.  Victor, you were a revelation and dancing in you’re “sweet spot.”  I thought this routine was a “wow”.  Bianca surprised me with her performance and Victor was right on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6] Kevin and Karen – Style Cha-Cha&lt;br /&gt;Nigel said, “Kevin that was a very good performance.  Karen, excellent!”  Mary said, “Kevin that was very good and Karen you were sharp and sexy.  Very good.”  Adam said, “Kevin that was really good, great job.  Karen “YIKES” that was great.”  I thought this was another “wow”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7] Ellenore and Ryan – Style Contemporary&lt;br /&gt;Nigel said, “I enjoyed it completely.”  Mary said, “You guys had great chemistry.  Ryan you nailed it and Ellenore you did a great job.”  Adam said, “Beautiful routine.  Bravo!  You two are an exciting pair of dancers.”  I thought it was danced very well by both.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8] Pauline and Brandon.  Brandon was called back to stand in for Billy&lt;br /&gt;Nigel said, “It was not strong enough.  It needed more.”  Mary said, “You two make a great couple but Brandon you need growth.  Pauline you were elegant and had good movement.”  Adam said, “Beautiful performance.”  I thought they had good chemistry and it was very well danced.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9] Kathryn and Legacy – Style Hip-Hop&lt;br /&gt;Nigel said, “Legacy you brought it.  Karen you brought together also.  I am looking forward to your partnership.”  Mary said, “Legacy you nailed it and were so precise.  Karen, right on.  You pulled it off.”  Adam said, “Great routine and great chemistry.  Good job.”  I like this one a lot.  They had great chemistry and the dance moves were awesome.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10] Mollee and Nathan – Style Disco&lt;br /&gt;Nigel said, “Great energy and that was fabulous.  You guys brought it!”  Mary said, “You guys nailed it and had awesome charisma.”  Adam said, “That routine had infectious energy and I am a big fan of this routine even though I really don’t like disco.”  I thought this was the best routine of the night.  Great chemistry, awesome energy, and the routine pushed both dancers to another level.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This concluded the performances and then the judges picked two guys and two girls to “dance for their life.”  The two guys were Brandon and Russell (I was surprised on this one.)  The two girls were Ariana and Pauline.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; The final decision was Arian and Brandon was cut from the competition.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Too Brandon and Ariana we at ABN send our congratulations for making the Top 20 and even though you are leaving tonight, “Let &lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;nothing&lt;/span&gt; stand in your way as you continue your journey to complete your dream”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have &lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;nothing&lt;/span&gt; further to add tonight except that I am looking forward to next weeks show.</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alaboutnothing.blogspot.com/feeds/5218582993597972958/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/287085436063318737/5218582993597972958' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/287085436063318737/posts/default/5218582993597972958'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/287085436063318737/posts/default/5218582993597972958'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alaboutnothing.blogspot.com/2009/10/so-you-think-you-can-dance-season-6_27.html' title='So You Think You Can Dance Season 6 Week 1 Performance'/><author><name>Al About Nothing</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07035334984220202842</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='29' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2-6nDavX9ic6XQ5nu8JvQ7l6gTQEzvjbP_ZJ9ipZt2R3mK3ppS5QomknkBCi8bQiNvCJxP-D59V7ZboHwQsowGtJtpB6TWmMEKuHVXidTKhrAw3BUYcskUSf1CbtCIrc/s220/cooltext427532808.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-287085436063318737.post-1467029358239842400</id><published>2009-10-27T19:29:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-27T19:34:25.575-07:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="dance"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="dreams"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="entertainment"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Family"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="FOX"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="inspiration"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="So you think you can dance"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="TV show"/><title type='text'>So You Think You Can Dance Season 6 Week #1 Results</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBXxjtUo9UJfY4Hg4i4ItzwFVnD2BMHXDDnnhu0zALa6r5ViYti0Ie6OkSMsCxFaIsO0GmcbWTZuYfcXXHIn1mGgF_JidbcBDA5rb-3t0p602DHmqfXD5INFWWb-7FCJ0N3-_MPzI9Z_4/s1600-h/brandon.JPG&quot;&gt;&lt;img id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5397473335834852114&quot;

border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Cut from the top 20 tonight was Brandon and Ariana.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This week the judges made the final decision as to who will be leaving the show. This came after all the performances and the announcement that Billy Bell had to leave the show because of illness and Noelle would not be performing tonight because of an injury.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Brandon was called in to take the place of Billy. He only had one and one half days to prepare for tonight’s performance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Because the rules say that if a contestant makes the Top 20 they can not come back for another season. Nigel said, “Because of the circumstances surrounding Brandon coming back he was going to talk with the folks at FOX and see if he could get that rule wavered for Brandon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So now we are down to a top 18 and this year is looking really competitive. This makes for plenty of excitement.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Too Brandon and Ariana I send my congratulations for making the Top 20 and even though you are leaving tonight, “Let &lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;nothing&lt;/span&gt; stand in your way as you continue your journey to complete your dream”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Foot Note: Brandon, we hope to see you next year. To FOX we say, &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3366ff;&quot;&gt;“Waved the rule!”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alaboutnothing.blogspot.com/feeds/1467029358239842400/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/287085436063318737/1467029358239842400' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/287085436063318737/posts/default/1467029358239842400'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/287085436063318737/posts/default/1467029358239842400'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alaboutnothing.blogspot.com/2009/10/so-you-think-you-can-dance-season-6.html' title='So You Think You Can Dance Season 6 Week #1 Results'/><author><name>Al About Nothing</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07035334984220202842</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='29' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2-6nDavX9ic6XQ5nu8JvQ7l6gTQEzvjbP_ZJ9ipZt2R3mK3ppS5QomknkBCi8bQiNvCJxP-D59V7ZboHwQsowGtJtpB6TWmMEKuHVXidTKhrAw3BUYcskUSf1CbtCIrc/s220/cooltext427532808.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBXxjtUo9UJfY4Hg4i4ItzwFVnD2BMHXDDnnhu0zALa6r5ViYti0Ie6OkSMsCxFaIsO0GmcbWTZuYfcXXHIn1mGgF_JidbcBDA5rb-3t0p602DHmqfXD5INFWWb-7FCJ0N3-_MPzI9Z_4/s72-c/brandon.JPG" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-287085436063318737.post-7835195216254002761</id><published>2009-10-21T19:29:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-21T19:33:32.135-07:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="dance"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="dreams"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="entertainment"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="FOX"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="inspiration"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="So you think you can dance"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="talent"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="TV"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="TV show"/><title type='text'>So You Think You Can Dance – Los Angels – Choosing the Top 20</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZmOChJf99YyUhfFtlacJAZducPV9z9Q2i3V-UpWebbasuXDletVpKL3k3eMYlVLyv-t-H_IeFS29Kuwf33Q-etRpNgNNkJ45czWTKMXxlOo4Imx1XXW5WXg-jx4m98oiznEME3IlGMEw/s1600-h/so-you-think-you-can-dance-auditions1.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5395246206503253810&quot;

border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Tonight’s judges were Nigel, Mary, TY, Adam, Debbie, and Mia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; This show was one ball of emotion for all the contestants, whether they were picked or cut from the top 20.  I was happy to see that the judges urged all the dancers that were cut to continue to grow and return next year to try again.  This is a good case because several of the dancers that were picked this year had tried out for other seasons and were cut only to return and make it this year.  The same applies to other previous seasons.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here are some of tonight’s highlights:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; 1] The show opened with Nathan being accepted into the top 20.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; 2] Kathryn from LA&lt;br /&gt; She said she decided to let go of her limitations in Vegas and open her arms to the experience.  She said her family was very proud and she felt blessed by the entire experience.  She was accepted into the top 20.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3] Channing&lt;br /&gt; The judges said she was such a strong dancer that she needed to work more on he partner skills.  She was accepted into the top 20.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4] Ariana was accepted into the top 20.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5] Elenora was accepted into the top 20&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6] Billy&lt;br /&gt; The judges said he had great technique and Billy said he is happy to have come so far.&lt;br /&gt; He was accepted into the top 20.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7] Russell (Crumper)&lt;br /&gt; Mia said that she was blown away at his “Crumping” and that the only concern with the judges was whether he could do other styles.  They said he did exactly that during Vegas week and he was accepted into the Top 20.  He is the 1st “Crumper” style dancer to make it to the Top 20 and I could see that he was very proud of himself for getting this far&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8] Kevin was accepted into the Top 20.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9] Bianca (Tap Dancer)&lt;br /&gt; This was Bianca’s second try for the Top 20 and she was accepted into the Top 20&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10] Phillip (Tap Dancer)&lt;br /&gt;The judges felt that Phillip needed to calm down and accept criticism.  He needs to open up to new ideas and direction. He was accepted into the top 20.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Wow!  Two Tap Dancers have made it this year so far.  There was one more left.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;11] Peter (Tap Dancer)&lt;br /&gt;Peter seemed a little apprehensive before he went before the judges because two Tap dancers had been accepted.  The judges discussed how he had been on the edge of being cut during Vegas week and there was one instance when the judges split their decision.  He was accepted into the top 20 and said he felt like he was “walking on air.”&lt;br /&gt;Double “Wow!” Three Tap dancers made it into the Top 20 this year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;12]  Victor&lt;br /&gt; Ty said he was a big fan of Victor and that he was a strong dancer. Also noted was at the beginning of Vega week it was pointed out by the judges that his hair was a distraction.  Victor then proceeded to cut it off and then had a “buzz”.  He was accepted into the top 20.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;13] Jacob was accepted into the top 20.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;14] Molly&lt;br /&gt; The judges said she danced like a 13-14 year old and she needed to mature.  She was accepted into the top 20.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;15] Pauline&lt;br /&gt; Pauline was injured at the end of Vegas week and could not complete her final solo.  This was discussed by the judges and then she was accepted into the top 20.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;16] Noel&lt;br /&gt;Noel was another returning dancer that was cut last season.  She said she really wanted this to happen.  She was accepted into the top 20.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;17] Paula&lt;br /&gt; Paula was also another returning dancer that had previously been cut.  The judges said that she was fantastic and a very special dancer.  She was accepted into the top 20.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;18] Legacy&lt;br /&gt;The judges said that any other year he would have breezed right through to the top 20 but this year they had so many good “Hip Hop” dancers they had to look and compare them all.  He was accepted into the top 20.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now it was down to two places left open.  One for the girls and one for the guys and the guys went first.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Gene and Ryan (Who is married to Ashleigh)&lt;br /&gt; Ryan was accepted into the top 20.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Next were the two girls Karen and Ashleigh.&lt;br /&gt; Karen was accepted into the top 20.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; They cut to the waiting room and when Ryan saw Karen come in and say she made the Top 20 he assumed that his wife Ashleigh did not make it.  He became very emotional as he waited for her.  Ashleigh then came in and said she had also been accepted.  It seems that earlier when Paula was accepted into the Top 20 she had to decline because she had landed a part in a movie.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Final notes:&lt;br /&gt;To the dancers that were “cut” this year I say. “Let &lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;nothing&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; stand in your way as you continue your journey to complete your dream”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Up until a few a days ago I had no idea this game existed. I was talking with Jeremy a young fellow at work and I asked him how his apartment hunting was going? He said, “It was going fine. I have looked at a few places and have a few more to check out.” I then said, “Have you thought about staying where you’re at?” He said, “Well when I step out on my patio I can see across the courtyard in to an apartment where several young guys live and they have a room dedicated to Beer Pong. Every time I step out on my patio I see them playing Beer Pong, so they must play 24/7.” I said, “Beer Pong?” Jeremy looked at me with an astonished look and said, “You don’t know what Beep Pong is?” I said “No, I have never heard of it.” He said, “You’re kidding me!” I said, “No, really I have no idea what you’re talking about.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We then had a discussion about Beer Pong and decided to take a survey of the people in the office who know what Beep Pong is. After the survey we found that the folks younger than 35 all knew what Beep Pong was. The folks from 35 to 45 have heard of the game, but did not know for sure what it was. The folks 45 and older never heard of Beer Pong.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Because I wanted to be enlightened as to how this game is played I asked Jeremy to explain the game.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jeremy went on to say, “I learned how to play when I was in college at Purdue University. There are other variations, but this is how I learned.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“First you set up a ping-pong table in the middle of the room. Then you get 20 16 ounce Solo cups. At each end of the table you set 10 cups up in a triangle pattern near the edge of the table. You then fill each cup with about an inch of beer. Then you get a ping-pong ball and choose up teams. Each team stands at the end of the table and one at a time tosses the ping-pong ball across the table attempting to get the ping-pong ball in a cup at the other end of the table. If successful, the cup at the other end of the table is removed and a team member on the other side must drink the contents. Once the cup is removed, the other cups are rearranged into the best possible triangle pattern and the game continues. When all the cups are gone on one side of the table, the team at the other end is the winner.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I then asked, “Should the net be set up on the ping-pong table?” He said, “Only if it is already set up on the table you are using. The net is not part of the game.” I said, “Oh, so the winners don’t have to jump over the net when they win.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Someone else then asked, “What kind of beer should be used?” Jeremy said, “Whatever you can get you hands on would be fine to use.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another asked, “Why only and inch of beer?” Jeremy said, “Well this can be determined by the folks playing the game. Usually at the beginning of the game an inch is the starting amount, but as each additional game is played the amount is usually increased.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then I asked, “Have you ever played using some kind of hard liquor like “Jack”? Jeremy said, “I did once and it was not a pretty site at the end of the evening.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So that’s it. Seems pretty simple and might be fun, and there might be other people who might like to try the game.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The game set up might be conducive to a kid’s game especially at a birthday party where the adults are trying to keep the kid’s occupied with games. They could fill the cups with Kool-Aid, sugar flavored optional. ”Kool-Aid Pong!”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another would be for the Napa Valley folks. They could use wine as the liquid, the quality would be optional. “Wine Pong!” or “Whine Pong!”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Finally we don’t want to leave the senior citizens out of the mix. Nursing homes usually have a game room and are looking to keep the inhabitants busy. They could have this set up in the game room and use Prune Juice as the liquid. “Prune Pong!”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have &lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;nothing&lt;/span&gt; else to add to this report except to say, “Now I know why Schnucks Grocery Store (Cordova TN) has ping-pong balls for sale in the beer aisle.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alaboutnothing.blogspot.com/feeds/9064934152617157631/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/287085436063318737/9064934152617157631' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/287085436063318737/posts/default/9064934152617157631'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/287085436063318737/posts/default/9064934152617157631'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alaboutnothing.blogspot.com/2009/10/beer-pong.html' title='Beer Pong!'/><author><name>Al About Nothing</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07035334984220202842</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='29' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2-6nDavX9ic6XQ5nu8JvQ7l6gTQEzvjbP_ZJ9ipZt2R3mK3ppS5QomknkBCi8bQiNvCJxP-D59V7ZboHwQsowGtJtpB6TWmMEKuHVXidTKhrAw3BUYcskUSf1CbtCIrc/s220/cooltext427532808.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6rouW6Pxo8JQibxuWvQI5ZBejolHL4lN_masCKVvOoo08p4VzsFWJOmREVOabs97jIWfQdjsPEOqAbkfafbcZh9uV_yzrHF2n8rthyphenhyphenA_orqfk-YPAsQ0jgxF6Va-VSqeR0GL5WGekcNQ/s72-c/beer-pong.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-287085436063318737.post-7631250116699374296</id><published>2009-10-14T21:13:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-14T21:18:04.344-07:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="dance"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="dreams"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="entertainment"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="music"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="rock"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="So you think you can dance"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="TV show"/><title type='text'>So You Think You Can Dance – “Vegas Week” Call-back.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmvm_7rZLWLZIfdDDhX8TlAsVUG4qyl6oUFRahlD2vlH6ptQbWH3HdmLRTnEEvqVpJyeq_ncHa3LyoTO0xvz2je9QAqeNYgx8qCiOY-93IhkU86LBzlRSZR4fQPAErjeI0kJMnSoavDyY/s1600-h/so+you+think.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5392675262681542018&quot;

border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;  The show tonight was fast paced with many quick previews of the dancing.  The format this year is for the contestants to dance various styles through each segment of each day 1 through day4 of the “call-back”.  At beginning of tonight’s show only 77 dancers were left to continue on thought these 4 days.  At the end of tonight’s show there were 38 dancers left and next weeks show will be when the Top 20 are chosen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tonight’s judges were Nigel, Mary, TY, Adam, Debbie, and Mia and they were busy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Here are some of tonight’s highlights:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3366ff;&quot;&gt;Day 1 of Call-back – Style Jazz.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Karen was in the first group and her husband was in the second group to perform.  Karen made it through, but her husband was cut.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Molly from the Los Angeles Audits was in another group and made it through to the next session, but injured her ankle during the first routine.  She went to the hospital.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Russell “The Crumper” made it through to the next session and amazed the judges because he has never had any forma training.  (I am rooting for this dancer).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3333ff;&quot;&gt; Day 2 of Call-back – Style Broadway.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; This day began with 69 dancers left in the competition.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Russell “The Crumper” was in the first group and Nigel said, “You were wonderful, creative, and did a good job.”  Russell made it through to the next session.  (Yeah!)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Molly came back from the hospital to find her group had been rehearsing for two hours getting ready for the next routine.  She joined in but found she could not perform some of the moves.  The group modified the routine so Molly would only need to do a minimum of moves.  They performed the routine in front of the judges.  Mia did not like it and Nigel said, “I think you all were hiding behind your character.”  Even with these comments the entire group made it to the next session.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3333ff;&quot;&gt;Day 3 of Call-back – Style Contemporary (Mia routine)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Kevin one of the “Hip-Hop” style dancers received a comment, “Great technique, your amazing, and brilliant.” From Ty.  Kevin moved on to the next session.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3333ff;&quot;&gt;This is &lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;my highlight&lt;/span&gt; of tonight’s show:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;“Legacy” the amazing “B-Boy” style dancer who was warned last week after “dancing for his life” that he had better step it up on other kinds of styles if he wanted to remain, Tonight he was nervous at the beginning and when he completed his performance hew was emotional stating to the judges, “I now know what you meant last week because tonight I have learned the meaning of the dance movement’s.”  I could see this guy was moved and sobbing with I would guess some would call and “epiphany”.  Know what?  This is exactly what this show is about!    “Bravo! Legacy!”.  He moved on to the next level.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3333ff;&quot;&gt;Day 4 of Call-back – Style Broadway (Ty routine)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The dance groups were broken up to “guys” and “girl” groups,  The “girl” groups started first.  One hundred dancers were now gone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pauline who last year almost made the “Top 20” performed and injured her ankle near the end of the group routine she was part of.  She was sent to the hospital and when she returned she did not know if she moved on or not.  Guess we will find out next week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bianca performed in a group and Nigel said, “Terrific!”.  She moved on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ashley who has a husband that will be performing in a “guy” group later received a comment from Nigel when she complete her dance group routine.  He said, “Tremendous!  You have grown more than anyone this year.”  She moved on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This ended the “girl” group routines.  Seventeen “girls” have moved on and will wait until next week for the Top 10 girls will be chosen and be part of the Top 20.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ryan, Ashley’s husband made to the next session.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dominic was injured last year and returned only to be “cut” this week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When the “guys” groups completed their routines twenty one guys had made it through.  In total there were now thirty eight dancers left.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; All the dancers then performed solo’s.  There was a very quick preview of several except for Billy Bell.  They showed quite a bit of his routine and Adam was openly moved by what he was watching.  I have to agree it was great and even on the “quick” previews, I could tell that the dancers this year are far above any dancer from previous seasons.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3366ff;&quot;&gt; Final notes:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To the dancers that were “cut” so far this year I say. “Let &lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;nothing&lt;/span&gt; stand in your way as you continue your journey to complete your dream”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; I have &lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;nothing&lt;/span&gt; else to report tonight except don’t forget the “Dizzy Feet Foundation” for kids.  Click here for more information.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Next week is the finals in “Vegas Week” to pick the Top 20.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alaboutnothing.blogspot.com/feeds/7631250116699374296/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/287085436063318737/7631250116699374296' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/287085436063318737/posts/default/7631250116699374296'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/287085436063318737/posts/default/7631250116699374296'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alaboutnothing.blogspot.com/2009/10/so-you-think-you-can-dance-vegas-week_14.html' title='So You Think You Can Dance – “Vegas Week” Call-back.'/><author><name>Al About Nothing</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07035334984220202842</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='29' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2-6nDavX9ic6XQ5nu8JvQ7l6gTQEzvjbP_ZJ9ipZt2R3mK3ppS5QomknkBCi8bQiNvCJxP-D59V7ZboHwQsowGtJtpB6TWmMEKuHVXidTKhrAw3BUYcskUSf1CbtCIrc/s220/cooltext427532808.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmvm_7rZLWLZIfdDDhX8TlAsVUG4qyl6oUFRahlD2vlH6ptQbWH3HdmLRTnEEvqVpJyeq_ncHa3LyoTO0xvz2je9QAqeNYgx8qCiOY-93IhkU86LBzlRSZR4fQPAErjeI0kJMnSoavDyY/s72-c/so+you+think.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-287085436063318737.post-6305118034961035384</id><published>2009-10-07T18:53:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-07T18:56:31.640-07:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="dance"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="dreams"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="entertainment"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="fame"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Family"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="FOX"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="inspiration"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="So you think you can dance"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="TV show"/><title type='text'>So You Think You Can Dance – “Vegas Week” First Three Days.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqSAXKQP_mYBeslt0teco3A30LBQqebygAbvV24GkDYMcW0t_040PC6CfXv7Xcw-jmf2fwoQybudM8UHGqi8plGfIipX2eKWYNydIKU0zxbFW0YwsQDtyDOtwO8exT3O_tjIa5DE-X5HA/s1600-h/so+you+think.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5390041522243256066&quot;

Here are some of tonight’s highlights:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nathan opened the show tonight.  Interesting enough is that Nathan auditioned last year and “wowed” the judges, but he was only seventeen and could not go on to “Vegas”.  Nigel was so impressed that he gave Nathan a ticket to “Vegas” for next year.  Now the only question was is he still good enough to compete this year?  The answer after he completed his routine this year is “YES”.  I agree!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jacob and Williem, the male couple danced and Jacob was cut from this year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Teddy, the Travis Wall look-a-like initially made it through to the next level, but at the end of the night was cut.  He did say he would continue to improve and be back next year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Ryan, Evan’s brother, barely managed to get through the first round Hip-Hop and ended up being cut on day 3.  Last year it was down to him and his brother completing for the 20th position of the Top 20.  Evan was picked and made it to third place in season 5.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Day two found 90 dancers remaining.  The first injury was Billy who took an elbow to the node and was not allowed to rehearse the “Cha-Cha” routine until his nose stopped bleeding.  He missed all the practice session, but his partner helped his between sessions.  When they danced with their group they all made it through to the next session.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There were two “Dance for your life” contestants tonight.  They were John (Contemporary) and “Legacy” (B-Boy).  John danced well, but the judges all said he did not have any emotion at all.  Their decision was “NO”.  “Legacy” did his specialty (Hip-Hop) and was awesome.  All judges agreed that it was an awesome routine, but he was warned by Nigel that he needs to “step it up” on the other styles.  The decision was “YES”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;My Highlight&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; of tonight’s show was Russell and Iveta dancing as a couple to a “Cha-Cha” routine.  Russell is the first “Crump” Style dancer to make it this far and was very nervous during practice for this routine.  Iveta, however is a world champion ballroom dancer and did some pretty fine coaching of Russell.  After they performed for the judge’s Nigel said, “Excellent!”  Adam said, “That was unbelievable!  Very Good!”.  I agree and applaud their performance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#339999;&quot;&gt; Final notes:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt; It looks like the bar has been raised this year and the dancers are really being pushed to their highest levels.  I wish each and everyone the best of luck.  To the dancers that were “cut” so far this year I say. “Let &lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;nothing&lt;/span&gt; stand in your way as you continue your journey to complete your dream”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; I have &lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;nothing&lt;/span&gt; else to report tonight except don’t forget the “Dizzy Feet Foundation” for kids.  &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.dizzyfeetfoundation.org/&quot;&gt;Click here &lt;/a&gt;for more information.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alaboutnothing.blogspot.com/feeds/6305118034961035384/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/287085436063318737/6305118034961035384' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/287085436063318737/posts/default/6305118034961035384'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/287085436063318737/posts/default/6305118034961035384'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alaboutnothing.blogspot.com/2009/10/so-you-think-you-can-dance-vegas-week.html' title='So You Think You Can Dance – “Vegas Week” First Three Days.'/><author><name>Al About Nothing</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07035334984220202842</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='29' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2-6nDavX9ic6XQ5nu8JvQ7l6gTQEzvjbP_ZJ9ipZt2R3mK3ppS5QomknkBCi8bQiNvCJxP-D59V7ZboHwQsowGtJtpB6TWmMEKuHVXidTKhrAw3BUYcskUSf1CbtCIrc/s220/cooltext427532808.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqSAXKQP_mYBeslt0teco3A30LBQqebygAbvV24GkDYMcW0t_040PC6CfXv7Xcw-jmf2fwoQybudM8UHGqi8plGfIipX2eKWYNydIKU0zxbFW0YwsQDtyDOtwO8exT3O_tjIa5DE-X5HA/s72-c/so+you+think.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-287085436063318737.post-8231475520028420202</id><published>2009-10-06T19:49:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-06T19:53:14.088-07:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="dance"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="dreams"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="entertainment"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="FOX"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="inspiration"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="music"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="rock"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="So you think you can dance"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="TV"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="TV show"/><title type='text'>So You Think You Can Dance Fall Season 6 – Auditions Salt Lake City UT</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBLdm4ELYlD8JyBZUCYh7W-HlPukuo5nghP8WNLoKeFARannk-CvW_IC-U_CJBSvrsWH8uK45pdTHg6z04Nx31TPZ5gAh9buQZk9q8ANtl9nALcfilT-OW_7oz8su2Jq68lq5uv87QJzU/s1600-h/so-you-think-you-can-dance-auditions1.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5389684972987176418&quot;

border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; This was the sixth show for Season 6, which this year is running through the Fall Season considered prime time. Tonight is the last audition night and “Vegas Week” starts tomorrow night.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tonight’s judges were Nigel, Mary and Mia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Contestants in order of performance: (Not all the contestants that were awarded a “trip to Vegas” performed on this show.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1] Bryan (Style -- “B-Boy”)&lt;br /&gt;Nigel said, “Strong moves and that was one of the best Hip-Hop auditions tis season.” Mary said, “Great stuff and great spirit.” Mia said, “Awesome job, one of the strongest Hip-Hop routines.” I thought “Whoa! Great moves!” I liked it.&lt;br /&gt;He was sent to choreography but left because he did not have any experience on other styles. He did try, but left and said he would be back next year when he gets training in other styles. ( hope he does return because he had some awesome hip-hop moves and looked to be an “original”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2] Tristy (She was the passenger in 25 car accidents in three years)&lt;br /&gt;Nigel asked, “Do you have any training?” She said, “Yes, three years.” Nigel looked surprised and said, “Someone is taking your money.” I also thought it was a weak routine and not structured.&lt;br /&gt;The judge’s decision was a “NO”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3] Hayley&lt;br /&gt;Nigel said, “I like your attitude.” Mary said, “Wow! String, powerful and confident.” Mia said, “Awesome job.” I thought it was good. I like her moves and the routine was very good.&lt;br /&gt;The judge’s decision was a “YES”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then there were five quick previews of dancers that all were sent to “Vegas Week”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4] Ariana (Style – Burlesque)&lt;br /&gt;Nigel said with a big smile on his face, “Fantastic!” Mary asked, “Did you think we wanted to see a strip-tease?” She said “Yes, why not?” Mia said, “Not much dancing.”&lt;br /&gt;She was sent to choreography and at the end of the night the judge’s decision was “NO”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5] Iveta She is from Lithuania and she danced ballroom with a partner.&lt;br /&gt;Nigel said, “You are vivacious and danced brilliantly. That was a very special audition.” Mary said, “Wow, you are exquisite.” Mary then got “misty” because she was very impressed by the routine. Mia said, “You have over whelming talent. It was a privilege to watch.” I thought it was a fantastic audition. I thought it was the “BEST” Ballroom audition this season and one of the “BEST” auditions ever,&lt;br /&gt;The judge’s decision was a “YES”. (No doubt here)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This ended day one and it was announced that 13 dancers were put through to “Vegas” from choreography.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6] Pascal (in the promo he said he becomes what ever song he is dancing)&lt;br /&gt;Nigel said, “There was no dancing in that routine.” I thought it was a strange routine. There were not any dance moves and he just flopped around and shook.&lt;br /&gt;The judge’s decision was a “NO”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7] Ashley and Ryan (Married pair)&lt;br /&gt;Nigel said, “Ryan was very good. Ashley was not real.” Mary said, “I loved the routine and Ryan was great. Ashely was a little fake.” Mia said, “Something was missing Ashley. Ryan did a vey good job. I thought it was agood routine, but oddly enough, I think the chemistry was missing.&lt;br /&gt;They were both sent to choreography and at the end of the night the judge’s decision was “YES” on both dancers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8] Leigh and Josh (This couple has only been together for two weeks)&lt;br /&gt;Nigel said, “Good job both of you.” Mary and Mia agreed with Nigel. I though it was good.&lt;br /&gt;Just then Leigh noticed she lost a toe nail and her toe began bleeding. Nigel called for a medic. When the medic was done Leigh received a judges decision of “YES”. Josh was sent to choreography and at the end of the night the judge’s decision was “NO”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This ended tonight show and it was announced that 19 other dancers moved on to “Vegas” after their choreography session.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tonight’s show notes:&lt;br /&gt;Once again I liked the way the show was presented tonight. They did not show any embarrassing routines and then only the contestants that were going to Vegas were quickly shown. I think this made the show 100% more interesting than last years audition shows.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have &lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;nothing&lt;/span&gt; else to report tonight except don’t forget the “Dizzy Feet Foundation” for kids. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.dizzyfeetfoundation.org/&quot;&gt;Click here&lt;/a&gt; for more information.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tomorrow nights show starts the auditions “Vegas Week” when then the top twenty is chosen for the remainder of the season. The “promo’s” looked great. I am definitely excited. Mia made a comment in the promotional Vegas Week video, “This is going to blow season five away!”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alaboutnothing.blogspot.com/feeds/8231475520028420202/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/287085436063318737/8231475520028420202' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/287085436063318737/posts/default/8231475520028420202'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/287085436063318737/posts/default/8231475520028420202'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alaboutnothing.blogspot.com/2009/10/so-you-think-you-can-dance-fall-season.html' title='So You Think You Can Dance Fall Season 6 – Auditions Salt Lake City UT'/><author><name>Al About Nothing</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07035334984220202842</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='29' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2-6nDavX9ic6XQ5nu8JvQ7l6gTQEzvjbP_ZJ9ipZt2R3mK3ppS5QomknkBCi8bQiNvCJxP-D59V7ZboHwQsowGtJtpB6TWmMEKuHVXidTKhrAw3BUYcskUSf1CbtCIrc/s220/cooltext427532808.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBLdm4ELYlD8JyBZUCYh7W-HlPukuo5nghP8WNLoKeFARannk-CvW_IC-U_CJBSvrsWH8uK45pdTHg6z04Nx31TPZ5gAh9buQZk9q8ANtl9nALcfilT-OW_7oz8su2Jq68lq5uv87QJzU/s72-c/so-you-think-you-can-dance-auditions1.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-287085436063318737.post-7098853556852685964</id><published>2009-09-30T18:46:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2009-09-30T18:49:45.054-07:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="dreams"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="entertainment"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Family"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="FOX"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="inspiration"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="reality"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="So you think you can dance"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="TV"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="TV show"/><title type='text'>So You Think You Can Dance Fall Season 6 – Auditions New Orleans LA</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7APhj9Orwlj9WeKsWiS4-BF4hdpn50mDfnAHno19IsYb_ij6raCX4rWaACBgiW_3-kASPJcFatJE9F75Q4ayX9cGZQwPe2mdJYkr6GIax3KzDq9wQCF12n7dUGmRCYYIW0_Shk3m2vJ4/s1600-h/so-you-think-you-can-dance-auditions1.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5387442061085699922&quot; style=&quot;FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 150px&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7APhj9Orwlj9WeKsWiS4-BF4hdpn50mDfnAHno19IsYb_ij6raCX4rWaACBgiW_3-kASPJcFatJE9F75Q4ayX9cGZQwPe2mdJYkr6GIax3KzDq9wQCF12n7dUGmRCYYIW0_Shk3m2vJ4/s200/so-you-think-you-can-dance-auditions1.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; This was the fifth show for Season 6, which this year is running through the Fall Season considered prime time.  This is the first time ever for New Orleans Auditions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tonight’s judges were Adam, Mary and Ty Lil “C”.  Nigel was gone because he was receiving an award back in England.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Contestants in order of performance:  (Not all the contestants that were awarded a “trip to Vegas” performed on this show.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1] Shelby -  Introduced a new dance style named “New Orleans Bounce”.&lt;br /&gt;Adam said, “You have good strength and drive.  Great to watch.”  Mary said, “Great energy, love it.

At this point several “NO” dancers were shown and Mary decided there need to be some rules.  She then introduced “Mary’s Dance Rules.”  #1 Do not wear hat over eyes.  #2  Do not do the never ending reach.  #3  Do not do self worship.  #4 Men -- no booty shaking.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10]  Jakob&lt;br /&gt;Adam said, “You rocked it with strength and strong moves.”  Mary said, “Fantastic!”  Lil “C” said, “Loved it.”  I completely enjoyed this routine.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;11] Diana  This contestants grand-father was very ill when she came to the audition and pasted away yesterday.  Her family pushed her to follow her dream and go to the auditions.  She was keeping the family updated on her progress.&lt;br /&gt;Adam said, “Your Grand-Father would be proud of you.”  Mary said, “Very good, great moves and you made it look effortless.”  I thought it was a beautiful routine, danced with passion.&lt;br /&gt;She was sent to choreograph and at the end of the night the judge’s decision was “YES”.  (&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff9900;&quot;&gt;YEAH&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;!)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tonight’s show notes:&lt;br /&gt;

border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; This was the fourth show for Season 6, which this year is running through the Fall Season considered prime time&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tonight’s judges were Nigel, Mary and Ty Lil “C”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Contestants in order of performance:  (Not all the contestants that were awarded a “trip to Vegas” performed on this show.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1) Billy&lt;br /&gt; Nigel said, “Great technique, but watch your hands and sway back.”  Mary and Lil “C” did not have any comments except voting “yes”.&lt;br /&gt;The judge’s decision was a “YES”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2) Amber&lt;br /&gt;  Nigel said, “*&amp;amp;*#%^#%@ performance, but great dancing, tremendous.”  Mary said, “Lousy performance, great dancing.  Lil “C”, said, “Remarkable dancing, bad performance.  I agree with the judges on both comments..&lt;br /&gt;She was sent to choreography and at the end of the night the judge’s decision was “YES”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3) Travis&lt;br /&gt;Nigel said, “Fun, but dancing is not competitive enough.”  Mary said, “Not strong enough.”  Lil “C” said, “Not strong enough dance.”  I agree, weak dancing.&lt;br /&gt;The judge’s decision was a “NO”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4) I miss the name of this dancer on a quick review, but the judge’s decision was “YES”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5) Victor&lt;br /&gt;Nigel said, “WOW!”  Mary said, “Explosive and dynamic.”  I like the routine and dance.&lt;br /&gt;The judge’s decision was a “YES”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6) Antwain and Anthony (Twins that came back from 3 years ago)&lt;br /&gt;All three judges said, “They are glad to see they are both growing in their dancing.”  I like their dancing.”&lt;br /&gt;They were both sent to choreography and at the end of the night the judge’s decision was “YES” for Antwain and “NO” for Anthony.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7) Matthew “Boogie Links”&lt;br /&gt; Nigel said, “Great rhythm and moves.”  Mary said, “Loved it, great moves.”  Lil “C” said, “Great style.”  I thought some of the moves were good, but I questioned his dancing.&lt;br /&gt;He was sent to choreograph and at the end of the night the judge’s decision was “NO”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8} Jessica – Great story here.  She is missing her left hand but following her dream.&lt;br /&gt;Nigel said, “Terrific dancing.”  Mary said, “You are inspiring and great dancing.”  Lil “C” said, “You demonstrate passion, strength and acceptance.”  I liked her performance and dancing.&lt;br /&gt;She was sent to choreography and at the end of the night the judge’s decision was “NO”. She did have a little trouble with her partner.  Nigel hoped she would not get upset.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9) Jonathan – During the promo he came across as “A legend in his own mind”.&lt;br /&gt;Mary said, “Some talent, but needs structure.”  Lil “C” said, “Out of control.  You were all over the place.”  Jonathon then began arguing with the judge’s and Nigel said, “You have an attitude problem.  We are here to help you learn more, not argue with you.”  I thought it was an odd routine and not at all under control.&lt;br /&gt;The judge’s decision was a “NO”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10) Thomas – Another great story here. &lt;br /&gt; Nigel said, “Great dancing, but you need to watch your emotions.”  Mary said, “WOW!  You are so talented and gifted.”  Lil “C” said, “Thank you for showing us your great talent.”  I thought this was the “&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color:#3333ff;&quot;&gt;BEST&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;” performance of the night.  A powerful contestant.&lt;br /&gt;The judge’s decision was a “YES”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tonight’s show notes:&lt;br /&gt; Once again I liked the way the show was presented tonight.  The embarrassing routines were held to just a few and the contestants sent to choreography were saved to last few minutes and then only the contestants that were going to Vegas were quickly shown.  I think this made the show 100% more interesting than last years audition shows.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Nigel said, “Great performance, beautiful moves.”  Mary said, “Brilliant, loved it, clever, and fresh.”  Ty said, “Unique and fantastic.” I though he was entertaining, very good dancing, and different is a good way.&lt;br /&gt;The judge’s decision was a “YES”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2) Jean&lt;br /&gt;

He recovered and left without being judged.&lt;br /&gt;The judge’s decision was a “YES”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9) Gene.&lt;br /&gt;Nigel said, “Great musicality and good dancing.”  Mary said, “HE needs to control his facial expressions, but good dancing.”  Ty said, “Good timing and dance.”  I like his dance moves, very sharp.&lt;br /&gt;Gene was sent to choreography and at the end of the night the judges decision was “YES”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10) Paul&lt;br /&gt; Nigel said, “Asked how old Paul was?  Paul said, “46”.  Nigel said, “he was to old for this show and was not really dancing.”  Mary said, “Not very good.”  Ty said, Not good at all.”  I though he was very weak.&lt;br /&gt;The judge’s decision was a “NO”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;11) Kevin.  This was a “comeback” after trying out for season 3 he went on to train in contemporary dance, and came back tonight.&lt;br /&gt;Nigel said, “Very good.” Mary said, “Was good, not great.”  Ty said, “Why didn’t you show any of your contemporary training?  Even without thought it was great.”  I liked it and thought it was very good.&lt;br /&gt;Kevin was sent to choreography and at the end of the night the judges decision was “YES”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tonight’s show notes:&lt;br /&gt; Once again I liked the way the show was presented tonight.  The embarrassing routines were held to just a few and the contestants sent to choreography were saved to last few minutes and then only the contestants that were going to Vegas were quickly shown.  I think this made the show 100% more interesting than last years audition shows.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;  I have been watching reality shows for quit a few years.  The main shows I watch are “Ice Road Truckers”, “Deadliest Catch”, “Extreme Loggers”, and just recently, “Swords”.  The one thing all the characters on these shows have in common is “They ALL whine.” They take “whining” to the highest level and the best of the best on these shows is the commentator.  When the characters begin to taper off on whining the commentator jumps in and starts projecting on everything that can go wrong will go wrong.  As the show progresses the commentator points out what one of the characters is doing while you watch and tells you what that person is doing wrong or “might” be doing wrong.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; There is some general whining that covers all of the shows.  Like for example “I have been up for 48 hours about to fall asleep standing.”. “What do they expect, I am new.”, I miss my family.”, “If I don’t get home soon I will go crazy.”, “How can I work in this terrible weather?”, “It’s to cold.”, “It’s to hot.”, “We are not making any money because Joe parted his hair on the wrong side of his head.”, Yada, Yada, and Yada.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Now if you really want to get on one of these shows you need to specialize your whining.  If it’s “Deadliest Catch” or “Swords” you need to study the art of fishing in the ocean.  “Swords” is a new reality show and I think all they did was use the old scripts from “Deadliest Catch” because they sound like they are using the same whines.  “We are not catching any fish because the captain does not know what he is doing.”, “How can the captain expect us to work in this storm?”, This is storm is making the deck slippery and it’s getting too dangerous to work.”, “I am a greenhorn, what do they expect from me?”, “If everybody would work as a team we could get rich in just a few weeks.”, and Yada, Yada.  On “Extreme Loggers”, “The “skidder” is broken and I can not get loaded.”  The saw broke and we are at a standstill”, “That 10 ton tree almost hit me when it fell.”  “The boss wants me to climb to the top of that 200 foot tree and cut the top off.”, and Yada, yada.  On “Ice Road Truckers”, “If I go too fast I could end up in a ditch or run off the side of a cliff.”, “The heater is not working in this rig.”, “The road is a sheet of ice and my tires are losing there traction.”, “I have to be in Nogascatuwan by midnight tonight with this load.”  “It’s snowing so hard I can barely see past the hood of my truck.”,  and Yada, Yada.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; It’s probably fairly easy whining about the job, but what these characters are really good at is whining about making tons of money in a short period of time and how dangerous their job is.  I wonder if it ever dawned on them that the more dangerous the job the more money they make.  I don’t think so because the whine about making thousands of dollars in just a few weeks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; So now go out and find a really dangerous job where you make tons of money is a short period of time, study the industry and get to specializing your whines so you can zero right in on the subject matter.  Be sure to study the history of the industry and the disasters so you can have something to refer to if you get so good at whining you become a commentator.  When the show slows down they always go back to something terrible that happened in a given industry history.  For example on “Swords” they mention “The Perfect Storm” on every show and sometimes several times during each show.  They always compare it to what is currently taking place and they always find a crew member or two who was “fishing” in the same decade as when the storm took place.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Now, go out there and get that great job and don’t forget where you got the tips on your new career.  Be sure to mention the “Albout&lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;nothing&lt;/span&gt;” when you’re on camera spewing out the greatest whines in the history of reality TV.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alaboutnothing.blogspot.com/feeds/6626399346125017077/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/287085436063318737/6626399346125017077' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/287085436063318737/posts/default/6626399346125017077'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/287085436063318737/posts/default/6626399346125017077'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alaboutnothing.blogspot.com/2009/09/how-to-get-on-reality-show.html' title='How to get on a Reality Show'/><author><name>Al About Nothing</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07035334984220202842</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='29' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2-6nDavX9ic6XQ5nu8JvQ7l6gTQEzvjbP_ZJ9ipZt2R3mK3ppS5QomknkBCi8bQiNvCJxP-D59V7ZboHwQsowGtJtpB6TWmMEKuHVXidTKhrAw3BUYcskUSf1CbtCIrc/s220/cooltext427532808.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNKyzNEJSLa7sPWvj3X2PeL8BA8Qg47WCiEIKaADW_D89Ekyzl3Up1GEytAm-x_9fl2c7Rg3xfk3nh4UUwevHII0Wi6IFAnqhFG9Ve1EqwEqyvW3K8Qg6880afZGoeoekeCsZLBLyBXE4/s72-c/reality-tv2.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-287085436063318737.post-870194948791422405</id><published>2009-09-20T20:12:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-09-20T20:15:48.969-07:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="humor"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="laughter"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="memphis"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="slang"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="southern"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="tN"/><title type='text'>An Adventure in Memphis Southern Slang…</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQgevsB7gMawEkL3aD63Jlx-Up0wyT6-haKK5PS3Ww3UJJN3P4bCsYfYXQ7_A0Arqm7xAgqx2a7GRjOYeXozVRzlWMr9QDKY9N-6FQQnoL7ZuTXD7Noz_Nmf4XbA69br_Fc2IlgUuKPxc/s1600-h/memphis.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5383753546935017570&quot;

border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;  I stopped in Starbucks at lunch to grab a quick coffee and relax on the terrace before returning to work.  This particular Starbuck’s is on Germantown Parkway in Memphis TN and it has a great open terrace in the front of the store.  I usually grab a coffee and head to the terrace to read a book and take a mid-day break at lunch.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; When I headed out to the terrace I noticed another guys sitting in the area where I usually sit.  As I approached he glanced at me and said, “HI. How are you doing today?”  I said, “Great! How are you?”  He said, “Fine, thank you.”  I then said, “Hopefully the world is as good as the both of us.” And smiled.  He then said, “Well, I guess that would depend on which side of the grass they are on.”  I smiled and sat down to start reading my book.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Now I have to tell you I had no clue on what he meant by that.  Round and round in my head went “Well, I guess that would depend on which side of the grass they are on.”  Just when I was about to ask him what that meant, he left with a wave.  Now I was obsessed on figuring out what that phrase meant.  It had to be some kind of southern slang and because I was new to working in the south I would have to figure it out on my own.  Actually I once worked in Orlando FL for a year but all the people I know down there were from New Jersey or New York.  So here I was thinking about the “grass” remark.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; I closed my book and took three deep breaths and thought, “Okay.  If you’re on top of the grass you would be alive and that would imply you are having a good day.  If you are below the grass that would indicate you are dead and buried and having a &lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff6666;&quot;&gt;nothing &lt;/span&gt;day and that would imply your having a “bad” day.”  “Aha!  I thought that has got to be it.”  To confirm what I concluded I decided to poll my fellow co-workers when I returned to work.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; When I returned to work I told Sam about my lunch conversation and asked him about the “grass” remark.  I then told him my conclusion and he started laughing.  After about five minutes Sam said, “I think he was referring to the “grass in greener on the other side” clique.  I then discovered that others were listening because questions began coming in from other cubicles.   One was ‘Did he say what kind of grass?”  Another asked “Was Astro-Turf mentioned?”  On and on questions came in and finally I said, “No, he simply said ““Well, I guess that would depend on which side of the grass they are on”.  No more no less.”  That ended the questions and we all went back to work.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; That night I met my friend Larry and his mother for dinner.  Larry’s mother is 80 years old and a native of TN.  I figured she would know what the “grass” remark meant.  I told her the story and what my conclusion was. She started laughing like Sam did at work.  She said, “I think you fried at work is right about the clique, but your conclusion is very creative.”   She continued with, “Thank you for the sharing that.  I have not laughed so hard in a long time.”  I then said with a smile, “Your welcome and the next time I see that fellow I will let everyone know the answer to my puzzle.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; To my delight I didn’t have to wait very long to see the fellow again.  The very next day he was at the Starbuck’s where I initially met him.  I immediately asked him what he meant by the “Grass” quote after telling him what I thought he meant.  He said, “That is exactly what I meant.”  I started laughing and told him about my experiences over the last twenty four hours and how many people enjoyed discussing his comment.  He laughed along with me and we then started a pleasant conversation about southern slang.  As we chatted I noticed he had a book with him and I saw that the subject matter was exactly the same as the book I was reading.  Both books were about generating the intension of positive thoughts and how the thoughts draw others to you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I must say it’s been an amazing twenty fours hours and I made a new friend after all was said and done. I find it amazing how one comment made in passing to a perfect stranger generated several other conversations with other folks and much laughter.  It’s been a great experience and &lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff6666;&quot;&gt;nothing&lt;/span&gt; that I could think of could replace the “tall cotton” of this entire experience.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alaboutnothing.blogspot.com/feeds/870194948791422405/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/287085436063318737/870194948791422405' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/287085436063318737/posts/default/870194948791422405'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/287085436063318737/posts/default/870194948791422405'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alaboutnothing.blogspot.com/2009/09/adventure-in-memphis-southern-slang.html' title='An Adventure in Memphis Southern Slang…'/><author><name>Al About Nothing</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07035334984220202842</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='29' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2-6nDavX9ic6XQ5nu8JvQ7l6gTQEzvjbP_ZJ9ipZt2R3mK3ppS5QomknkBCi8bQiNvCJxP-D59V7ZboHwQsowGtJtpB6TWmMEKuHVXidTKhrAw3BUYcskUSf1CbtCIrc/s220/cooltext427532808.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQgevsB7gMawEkL3aD63Jlx-Up0wyT6-haKK5PS3Ww3UJJN3P4bCsYfYXQ7_A0Arqm7xAgqx2a7GRjOYeXozVRzlWMr9QDKY9N-6FQQnoL7ZuTXD7Noz_Nmf4XbA69br_Fc2IlgUuKPxc/s72-c/memphis.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-287085436063318737.post-4859534969418465600</id><published>2009-09-16T18:56:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2009-09-16T19:00:02.471-07:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="dance"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="dreams"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="inspiration"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="So you think you can dance"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="talent"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="TV"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="TV show"/><title type='text'>So You Think You Can Dance Fall Season 6 – Auditions Phoenix AZ</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjw6ufJSTuZE-r0achebc-r3RPUJ7mKiEDmp3R25yKviO-3dXFlm3YI5O_UETyoP5TSuTK_DbgqxcHa96-ne-w7xl7Wh4bcqOPJTHq5S1SGDD5Gj2PRo_e7r0AZ9Nykiw6cqXCYK_2EzVc/s1600-h/so-you-think-you-can-dance-auditions1.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5382249567928677650&quot; style=&quot;FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 150px&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjw6ufJSTuZE-r0achebc-r3RPUJ7mKiEDmp3R25yKviO-3dXFlm3YI5O_UETyoP5TSuTK_DbgqxcHa96-ne-w7xl7Wh4bcqOPJTHq5S1SGDD5Gj2PRo_e7r0AZ9Nykiw6cqXCYK_2EzVc/s200/so-you-think-you-can-dance-auditions1.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; This was the second show for Season 6, which this year is running through the Fall Season considered prime time&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tonight’s judges were Nigel, Mary and Mia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Contestants in order of performance:  (Not all the contestants that were awards a “trip to Vegas” performed.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1) Brandon and Demetrie from Tulsa dance Hip-Hip&lt;br /&gt;All the judges agreed they were weak dancers, but very entertaining.  They went to choreography and the final decision was a “NO”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2) Sasha&lt;br /&gt; She had previously auditioned in Season Four’s Audition.&lt;br /&gt; Nigel said, “Beautiful dancing.”  Mary said, “Excellent dancing and solo routine.”  Mia said, “Strong technique and great solo.&lt;br /&gt;The judge’s decision was a “YES”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3) Katie.  There was a quick review of her dance.  “YES”.&lt;br /&gt;Nigel commented that she was strong in her performance and technique.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4) Ellie. There was a quick review of her dance. “YES”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5) Allison.&lt;br /&gt; Great story on this contestant.  She is hearing impaired and dances beautifully.  She said, “She feels the music.”&lt;br /&gt; Nigel said, “Beautiful movement in her dance.”  Mary said, “Great inspiration and beautiful dancing.”  Mary also related a story about someone she knew who had the same impairment, but gave up on her dancing and is no longer with us.  Mary was really moved by Allison.  Mia said, “Thank you for sharing.”  I thought she was excellent.  Allison was sent to choreography and at the end of the night the judges decision was “YES”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6) William and Jacob.  (Same sex dancers).&lt;br /&gt; Nigel said, “String dancing.”  Mary said, “I am proud of you two and their technique was strong.”  Mia said, “Good dancing and strong routine.”  I thought they danced very well.  They were both sent to choreography and at the end of the night the judges decision was “YES”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7) Johathan.&lt;br /&gt; All three judges agreed that he was entertaining but a weak dancer.&lt;br /&gt;The judge’s decision was a “NO”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8) Jarvis.  (Energy plus)&lt;br /&gt;Again all three judges agreed that he was a weak dancer, but very entertaining.  He was sent to choreography and at the end of the night Jarvis collapsed during the dancing. He recovered and left without being judged.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; 9) Kelsey.&lt;br /&gt;  All three judges said she was “OK” and just before Kelsey came out there was some joking about aliens.  Nigel asked Kelsey if she had ever been abducted by aliens and she said, “Yes, once.”  Nigel then left the judging area and went back stage.  (I think she was joking).  Mary and Mia said her dance was ok and sent her to choreography and at the end of the night the judges decision was “NO”, but all the judges told her to keep working on her dance because she was close to being accepted.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;10) Johnathon L. (B-Boy)&lt;br /&gt; Nigel said, “Tremendous and exciting in his style of dancing.”  Mary said, “Great personality and very exciting.”  Mia said, “She had heard about him and how well he dances.  You are a powerhouse and then said he was “stupid”, or in other words, he “blew” her away.”&lt;br /&gt;The judge’s decision was a “YES”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tonight’s show notes:&lt;br /&gt; Once again I liked the way the show was presented tonight.  The embarrassing routines were held to just a few and the contestants sent to choreography were saved to last few minutes and then only the contestants that were going to Vegas were quickly shown.  I think this made the show 100% more interesting than last years audition shows.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  I have &lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;nothing&lt;/span&gt; else to report tonight except don’t forget the “Dizzy Feet Foundation” for kids.</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alaboutnothing.blogspot.com/feeds/4859534969418465600/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/287085436063318737/4859534969418465600' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/287085436063318737/posts/default/4859534969418465600'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/287085436063318737/posts/default/4859534969418465600'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alaboutnothing.blogspot.com/2009/09/so-you-think-you-can-dance-fall-season.html' title='So You Think You Can Dance Fall Season 6 – Auditions Phoenix AZ'/><author><name>Al About Nothing</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07035334984220202842</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='29' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2-6nDavX9ic6XQ5nu8JvQ7l6gTQEzvjbP_ZJ9ipZt2R3mK3ppS5QomknkBCi8bQiNvCJxP-D59V7ZboHwQsowGtJtpB6TWmMEKuHVXidTKhrAw3BUYcskUSf1CbtCIrc/s220/cooltext427532808.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjw6ufJSTuZE-r0achebc-r3RPUJ7mKiEDmp3R25yKviO-3dXFlm3YI5O_UETyoP5TSuTK_DbgqxcHa96-ne-w7xl7Wh4bcqOPJTHq5S1SGDD5Gj2PRo_e7r0AZ9Nykiw6cqXCYK_2EzVc/s72-c/so-you-think-you-can-dance-auditions1.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-287085436063318737.post-3952380046614499004</id><published>2009-09-07T14:52:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2009-09-07T14:56:07.748-07:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="believe"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="dreams"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="golf"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Melanie"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Oudin"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Tennis"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="tiger woods"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="US OPEN"/><title type='text'>US Open Tennis Tournament– Melanie Oudin</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjovPd9nPSOOR57QFNhwaQuLI2o0bGydi31EXLSkjKqkg4UO1lLjqgdriCKzDaJlzfsL97MIDaz-a2cwlsJ5uMxwvHMYYW2ELWO0D9M-4mjf4hX-U1qOTNZyPDJEZ85zxUVSpOpVlYkXQU/s1600-h/MelanieOudin0805.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5378847026977966434&quot; style=&quot;FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 112px&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjovPd9nPSOOR57QFNhwaQuLI2o0bGydi31EXLSkjKqkg4UO1lLjqgdriCKzDaJlzfsL97MIDaz-a2cwlsJ5uMxwvHMYYW2ELWO0D9M-4mjf4hX-U1qOTNZyPDJEZ85zxUVSpOpVlYkXQU/s200/MelanieOudin0805.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; WOW!  Now that was a match worth watching every minute.  Way to go Melanie!

(They charged him again) and this time the service guy said they needed to add a device for his HD reception.  (Another additional charge.)  Finally everything was working but Jeff was not happy with Comcast at all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; After Jeff told be this story I told him about my experience (See blogs for April 4th and 27th 2009).  I gave Jeff this email address so he could voice his complaints directly with Comcast - (&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:We_Can_Help@cable.comcast.com&quot;&gt;We_Can_Help@cable.comcast.com&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Jeff tool advantage of the email and just a few days later told me that Comcast does care and they were giving Jeff a credit to his account for the aggravation and misunderstanding.  Jeff is now a happy camper.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Now I say to all of you Comcast Customers out their in cyber-space, that if you have something to report too Comcast, take advantage of the email address above and let them know.  Being silent will only add to your stress and you probably could use some stress relief these days.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have &lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;nothing&lt;/span&gt; else to add except -- Have a &lt;span style=&quot;color:#ff0000;&quot;&gt;COMCASTIC&lt;/span&gt; Day, I know Jeff and I will!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://alaboutnothing.blogspot.com/feeds/7372932383312395365/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/287085436063318737/7372932383312395365' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/287085436063318737/posts/default/7372932383312395365'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/287085436063318737/posts/default/7372932383312395365'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alaboutnothing.blogspot.com/2009/08/comcast-cares-another-happy-customer.html' title='COMCAST Cares!  Another Happy Customer.'/><author><name>Al About Nothing</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07035334984220202842</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='29' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2-6nDavX9ic6XQ5nu8JvQ7l6gTQEzvjbP_ZJ9ipZt2R3mK3ppS5QomknkBCi8bQiNvCJxP-D59V7ZboHwQsowGtJtpB6TWmMEKuHVXidTKhrAw3BUYcskUSf1CbtCIrc/s220/cooltext427532808.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPhut78JMfhj_Fmh-mWgvmbb7AIDWnpAtVLl3e78rszwdOI0fPDYKhHiczIjGCHN0Y6I0_aPdgKNQh4hLsly7hXAGe7SHu9EgNLctNGl3EgAY1BKOCm1LzuhWOzG802IfGAveGVEW87Gg/s72-c/comcast.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
