Kl Live Showdown!

Boatful of energy is what I call my Malaysian friends! You are wondering why I say this right???!!?? Well......since coming back here.....there seems to be events almost every other day, be it birthdays, karaoke sessions, dinners, lunches, etc. At first, I thought.."hhmm...maybe it's just because it's the middle of the year and hence alot of events are happening".....BUT NOPE! I soon find out....my friends.....and alot of other Urban youth in KL go out every night till the wee hours of the morning, and they still have the energy to get up early to go to work/school the next day......I know I know..those that know me probably think "it's because I am an ah-ma(Grandmother)" but I promise you, my friends from other countries who visit think so too!!!! So guys...if you are reading this....what is the secret to the endless amounts of energy??!!??

Anyway, I am writing this particular post to highlight our very own Malaysian version of "America's best dance crew" which is called "KL Live showdown". The best dance crews are picked from nationwide auditions to enter this competition which is aired live on tv. Thanks to my beloved girlfriend, we manage to get tickets to the finals, whicch was supppper packed! Given the fact that I llooooooovveeee dancing(some say I dance like a "monkey") because I can go crazy dancing just listening to music!!! Offended as I should be...its true:)

Taking snapshots before entering....very excited as you can tell from our faces!!

Judges table....scary!

Slides of the show throughout the whole season...

Wakaka crew's first dance, they danced to Shakira's waka waka world cup song! How apt!The best part of the performance was the beginning, in which the leader glided down from the top on a Malaysian flag. Element of surprise +1 point! However, I found that they weren't synchronized at all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I found it messy!!

Floor Fever crew.....A mixture of girls and guys, they were awesome! Very creative outfits, dance moves were sharp, and loved their expressions!!!!You know....expressions are really important when someone dances.....you want to see smiley and pumped up faces right???!!

Gillar Battle Crew....also another creative concept, they used shadow play for the whole dance....

For the second round of dances by all the teams, I only manage to take a few pictures of Floor Fever because it was really packed and I was soooo impressed with this team that I made sure I took a few pictures of them for all of you to see:) Their second dance..they used drums to start followed by a clean, tight, and mind blowing performance...I think they can be as sharp as the Jabba Wonkies!

Buuut......due to votes from the rest of the viewers and probably a sttttrrrrooonng fan base.....the Wakaka crew won.... Man!! I was soo upset because I had a wager with a friend of mine that Floor Fever would win...and they SHOULD have.....

I guess from what I heard, Wakaka won because they were reeealllyy good during the dance off battles...the final two crews at the end of every round will battle it out, free style dancing! I guess...in a way....they can think on their toes??? hehehe.....well Congratulations Wakaka crew!!!

In my opinion, some of these dance crews are really good and have the potential to be make it big!!! And to be honest, I am really happy that the dance and arts community in Malaysia is expanding so much.....we have so many arts center that stage plays, musicals and stuff now! This just inspires me to want to form my own dance crew......hehee..anyone interested?
