So You Think You Can Dance Canadian tour kicks off


So I went to the SYTYCD show yesterday in Van. I was soooo excited, the last few hours, and minutes of work seemed to take forever as I counted down. I went with a group of people but only knew my co-worker so it was a little awkward but I did learn alot about toilet training and what their children like to do or say. We almost missed the opening though because we were running late after eating dinner, NOOOOO! But, we made it just in time for the first dance number and it was great. I spent half the show fiddling with my camera and trying to focus it but did get some decent pictures. They had quite a few of my favourite numbers though some were not included. The group numbers were great and they also had all of them do their solos, just like the T.V. show. Twitch from last season of the US show was there. He was getting mobbed a bit so the tech people pulled him into the off limits area. I kind of freaked out and screamed like a crazy person. I couldn't get a picture though I tried. I just got 4 blurry dark images with a few blinky lights. Lame. Anyways, the dancers were great. There were a few cheesy bits here and there and brutally long awkward pauses after each routine - I think it was to give the audience time to cheer and stuff but honestly 20 seconds is probably the maximum time needed and it seemed to go on for a few minutes. Admittedly, I didn't time it, so I may be exaggerating. I wish there were more routines but the dancers would likely pass out from exhaustion so I understand. I did get a T-shirt, of course, I almost didn't but wanted to complete my So You Think You Can Dance obsession. $40 later, but worth it. If only Francis made it to the Top 10, too bad! You should all go if you can. It's great and I can't wait till Season 2! I want to go again!
