Spotlight on Denver Auditioners, Part II

Who will compete on America's Best Dance Crew Season 5?  We have no idea! But we DO know names for most of the crews that auditioned.  Early in January, we will run a contest to let you 'cast' which of the crews you think should make it to ABDC5 Top 9.  To help you choose and give these crews some exposure, we'll spotlight each of them and show any recent performance videos we can find. Yesterday and today: spotlight on crews that auditioned in Denver. 
  • Motion Underground hails from Denver. DayOneVideos posted several of their performances, including this:

  • Rocky Mountain Rockstarz consists of former professional cheerleaders and dancers affiliated with LA Lakers, Denver Nuggets, and other teams. Here's a performance at a 2009 party:

  •  True II Form from Denver have performed all over Colorado. They have an eclectic hip-hop based style. Many videos of them are available at WendyWut's Youtube Channel, including some bboy freestyles and this performance from Verve 2009:
 



  • Illmatik Phlo Krew from Miami. Members come from 4 different crews: Ground Zero Crew, IllMoves Crew, ThunderCatz, and mystika. Their MySpace page has videos for each of the 4 crews, but nothing for the Illmatik Phlo crew itself.
  • We lack videos for: Bandits (a bboy crew from Texas),  Ricochet (a contemporary burlesque group that was part of The Damsels Dance company from Denver)
