SOOOO I WENT to the SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE show in Toronto last night and WHAT A GREAT TIME!!! Loved the atmosphere of the audience SCREAMING out for these suddenly famous DANCERS!! WOO HOO! It was great! And I have to admit I think I have given Teens a bad wrap... THEY DO HAVE TASTE! I was bad thinking that they only liked things with instant gratification via tecno new age blah blah blah.. you get the picture, well I was close to tears listening to the screams coming from these teens as though they were at a rock concert.. and why??? Because of a CONTEMPORAY DANCE ROUTINE!?!?!?!?! Wow, I am STUND... also the same response over a waltz??? All I have to say is I am sorry teens.. I misjudged you, you do have taste. I better stop acting like the parents when I was a teen. Regardless the show was great. I loved it, and the only complaint I have it that I hated my seats... I wanted to be CLOSER, and that Ivan wasn't there... that sucked. I loved Ivan on the show and really was disappointed he wasn't there. Wonder why he wasn't there?? I think it has something to do with him crossing the border... just a thought.
The evening was fun and topped off with my mom and I trying to meet the dancers after the show.. we stood in the cold along with many many screaming teenage girls and when they came out... NOTHING, all I got was pics of the tops of many people's heads.. so we left and at our hotel while standing outside several motorcycle cops came right up to the hotel lobby followed by a cop car and a "driver" in a turban... when we went in a hotel "security guy" was going up the same elevator as us and I asked is someone important here?? Which he was very kind and talkitive...... talking right out of the question HAHA!
It was an interesting night, and I know my mom had a blast... I wish I was 15 again and still able to dream about becoming a dancer... it is good to dream and that show I know has put dreams in many a young persons heart last night.
Loved it.
