So You Think You Can Dance?




On Friday, I took my wife to see So You Think You Can Dance at Nokia Theater (against my will (even though she will claim it was my idea (which it might have been (but I still deny it)))). We had watched the show every week and really enjoyed it and thought it might be a fun thing to check out for our Anniversary (I bought the tickets then). We got there a little early bit early, fought traffic, got dinner (suprisingly inexpensive) and found our seats. I was suprised how popular it was as we got upper level seats and I bought the tickets about 3 hours after they went on sale. Here is a pic of the lobby during intermission. Packed!

Anyways, the show itself was great. They basically did the best dances of the season and had some entertaining banter between the dances. It was pretty cool seeing them in person, you get a whole differen perspective since you see the whole dance floor and how they move around it and work together. My favorite dance was the bollywood one. A guy at work has gotten me into some bollywood movies lately, so I think that is why I liked the dance. Here is a pic of it.




One of the coolest things that happened was I ran into Jeremy, Bethany and I's old roommate. He and his wife had the same situation as we did (watched the show, he wanted to go and tricked her into thinking it was her idea and he was going along to be a good husband). We got to touch base and catch up some. Hopefully we will get together after my trip. But it was really cool seeing him. And how random, I was taking the crowd picture above when I turned and he was walking up the stairs. We had simeltanous suprise and confusion. It was great. Often in life we are suprised by the coincidences that happen. An old saying says that coincidences are just God's way of staying annonomyus. I like to think that's true. Anyways the show was really great and I would recommend both watching the show and checking out the tour. It's much more entertaining then Idol...in my opinion at least. Anyways, here is a picture of us with me doing my typical horrible self-picture-smile. Enjoy!



P.S.: This picture makes me insane...
