We just returned from the America's Best Dance Crew taping. My ears are still ringing and I am still scraping confetti off my shoes. That was intense!
As with last season, I watched in the press tents with BABDC reporting crew members Sarah, Michelle, Cheryl, and with members of 21 other press outlets. Though there was some laughter (especially at the Ninja Turtle comment), wild cheering (at the Quest announcement), and lots of videotaping (why would you tape a TV in the press tent?), I missed on-line blogging and chat with this site's readers. Afterwards, we waited in an area suspiciously like a windtunnel, and finally got to see the stage around 30 minutes after the show stopped taping.
Then all hell broke loose. 22 media outlets and about 14 interviewable celebrities/crews = media feeding frenzy. We tried to interview Quest, but kept getting moved aside by other larger or more persistent camera crews. Man, I should have had my NY game going more. We did get to talk on camera to Shane Sparks, Randy Jackson, Ringmasters, Dynamic Edition, Beat Freaks, Strikers, and off camera to GOP, co-producer Howard Schwartz, Fanny Pak and JC Chasez.
No major revelations (except that there WILL be a Season 4), but we'll share the answers to our reader questions soon. And, we're going to try to talk to Quest tomorrow. No promises, but here's hoping... they did smile at us!
