Beantown Auditions!

What a coincidence that Boston auditions are the day after the tour hit Boston! Oh wow, I am a dork as usual. And I really want to go to the tour...

Haha I like the group worm in line! Never seen that before. Sweet. Tyce as guest judge always makes for some funny comments, facial expressions, and insults of course. 

Here we go Boston!!

 Teddy Tedhome - We've already seen him in Season 5's preview package. And he's adorable in his yellow plaid pants (that his mommy bought for him). As he says, he is "whimsical". I love love love his quirky style. He's like a Pixar cartoon or something! Never seen anything like it. And ps, love the song. As my roomie put on her facebook status: I wonder if Jason Mraz ever realized how popular his songs would be with SYTYCD hopefuls? I totally agree with Mary that his audition was so CLEVER! He definitely stands out and was even better than I remembered!

Gene Lloret - He's starting out with some little salsa steps! Wow this kids like defies gravity with his breaking moves! He's a lot like Gev in his style...kinda freaks you out with some of the stuff he does! Judges were super impressed and didn't even talk to him after, they just handed him tickets. He didn't even know they were to Vegas! I'm thinking he's not trained in anything else though, but it'd be awesome if he proved me wrong because his solos would be awesome in the Top 20!

Kimara Wood - very powerful dancing! Kinda like what Vitolio should have been like. 

Channing Cooke - She totally reminds me of Kherington with the cute face and "tomboy" vibe! An ice cream scooper, how cute is that?!?!?! And she looks like Kristen Bell?? I hope she's good because I like her already! Well, her beach gymnastics look great I think she'll do great! Very lovely movements but sometimes a little too literal for me, although that is a weird pet peeve of mine so I can't hold it against her too much. She seems like the kind of dancer that can grow a TON on this show. Good audition, she's going to choreography...I agree I guess. I'm sure she'll be fine. And she is! Vegas!

Ryan Casey - Wow this guy is TALL! 6'8''?! So unheard of for a dancer! Ok, so he's a tapper, that fits. Love the fast tapping to funky music. For such a tall guy his movements are very precise! Pretty impressed actually. There are some awkward tall guy moments, but overall great audition! He would not work with a partner though, let's be honest. Off to choreo...good effort, but no Vegas. Just as well, partnering would be horrible for him and a girl any shorter than 6'3''!

Russell Ferguson - A Krumper! Yay! Kalyn must be freaking out right now! Love the music, great movements. I really liked that! He's trained in ballet, modern, jazz, tap, and African? Ok this guy is a stud. Hahaha Nigel! Have you ever fused Krump and Tap? It's called Krap! HA. ZING! Off to choreo, figures! Well he must be a carpenter because he nailed it! Vegas! Can't wait to see more of him!

Breeze (Fabrizio Jenkins) - Popping. Kind of. Pretty much staying in one place but he has some good moves. And he fell over? Can't tell if that was on purpose or not. Hahaha, Nigel called him out and he totally did! Covered that very well at least. I agree with Tyce that if he trained he could be really good. And there he goes to choreo but with a bum ankle. To be fair to his partner he bows out of the competition. Good luck to you, buddy. 

Karen and Matthew Hower - Wow they're married?! Haven't seen too much of that, it's cute! Cool little hip hop ballroom number. They are so relaxed and flowing, I like it. Great turns! I would have like to have seen a lift or two, but other than that, great routine. I loved the ending. Karen is totally Jennifer Lopez hot, Mary! Good call! Awkward edit...Vegas! First husband/wife team to make it there!

Gene Berston - "I specialize in Latin styles. The sexy dance." Kinda weird that he's dancing alone though. Well he's got some moves. Unfortunately he reminds me too much of Jonathan for me to really be a fan. Sorry Jonathan. And sorry Gene. I'm sure they're going to make him do choreo so they can see that he can dance with a partner. And they do, but not before he rips open his shirt. And he's fine with that and off to Vegas. 

Paul Magliotto - Ok well he's weird in his package, so I'm sure this is going to be absurd. He has a "movement invention"...dear lord. He's also way to old for the competition. Sorry buddy, but WHAT are you doing? Shuffling around the stage attempting some rudimentary interpretive dance? Oh man, the turns are priceless though. Why do they show this crap? Blah. He's out. Shocking!

Weirdo reel + Tyce = awesome. "It looks like constipation. You gotta get rid of that. "

 Kevin Hunte/ K Bez - He apparently auditioned in Season 3? Hmmmm...he's whatever to me. Nothing special but not like he's bad. He is mostly just staying in the center of the stage and moving his legs around. I don't know. He says he's studied contemporary since he auditioned last time. Nigel liked his musicality and popping, but it was just "good" not "great". Tyce was a little harsh because he didn't show enough growth. Ok so they're sending him to choreo which is fair. And he does a good job and is going to Vegas. Hope he improves on that though, otherwise his trip will be very short. 

And that's all for tonight...3 more weeks of auditions, 3 more weeks of Vegas/ get to know the Top 20, and then it begins! Oh wow that is literally an eternity. At least we have GLEEEEEEEE! G'nite!
