Johnny Cash Does Elvis Impersonation

Written by: Rocky

Take a look at this great video of Johnny Cash joking around. It gave me a great laugh.

Isn’t it amazing that we can now watch performances like this that were recorded almost fifty years ago?

America’s Best Dance Crew: Sexy Not Trashy!

Written by: Rocky

Fan-ny Pak, Fan-ny Pak! I was chanting right along with the audience. My favorite performance of the night. I have a confession to make, Fanny Pak was on my list of crews to be eliminated early in this competition. During the auditions I thought Fanny Pak was a joke, during the top twenty show I was surprised when they made it through to the top 10. Fanny Pak, really?!? But after the first show I saw creative potential and they’ve grown on me ever since!

My favorite three crews, Super Cr3w, SoReal and Boogie Bots are still my favorites, but tonight were a little disappointing. Both Boogie Bots and Super Cr3w were just okay. Thankfully, SoReal were good… again!

Which brings me to A.S.I.I.D, how did they manage to get more votes this week than SoReal? Every week SoReal is a fan favorite, both with the live audience and those posting on message boards. Last week their routine was definitely one of the top four.

A.S.I.I.D. has always seemed a bit sloppy to me, as Lil Mama pointed out about their performance last week. I think right now they’re getting sympathy votes for having a hearing impaired person on the team. I know it’s not PC to say it but that’s how I feel. They made it into the top three crews this week over two more popular crews. One crew that was awesome last week. Of course, I’m basing my opinion of popularity on what I read online and hear from real life people. Maybe their fan base just puts their efforts into voting rather than talking and posting. Not a bad thing. It didn’t help my opinion of the situation when the show made sure we knew that it was the loss of a hearing aid that threw them off and not just sloppy dancing. Milk the sympathy votes some more! Of course, I have to be fair; they milked sympathy votes for my Boogie Bots, too. Yeah, so I’ll be quiet now.

Phresh Select and Supreme Soul landed in the bottom. Many people were predicting that Phresh Select would go this week, as was I. So that was not a surprise. But Supreme Soul, that threw me. I think they are the sleeper crew and will be in the final battle. I’ve seen some of their performances before this show and they are definitely not showing their full potential. Actually, if the bottom two were not decided by public votes, I would say this was planned. My prediction: Expect Supreme Soul to continue to shine strong for the rest of the show.

Overall, it was just an okay show, but I still love it!

This week Phresh Select heads home.
