Blog 22-Jabbawockeez

This weeks blog, is about one of my favorite groups of all times, the Jabbawockeez. The Jabbawockeez are America's Best Dance Crew (from now on going to abbreviated ABDC) winners from season 1. Since then, they have enjoyed a large amount of mainstream success, due in part to their phenomenal skill, as well as their entertaining choices of costumes, which always involve some sort of mask to hide their identity. The reason for this, they say, is to make every group member as important as the next, and to get the audience to focus more on the performance, stunts, acrobatics, and overall feel of the dance, as opposed to one or a few of the crew members. One judge said after a certain performace, "Y'all just set the standard for the next 10 seasons", and he was right. After the Jabbawockeez won season one, no dance crew for the next 5 years was able to match the creativity, intensity, perfection, and performance level of the Jabbawockeez. In fact, after a few more years, ABDC faded from the spot light, due in large part to the less than exciting crews that appeared continuously on the show. Below I will post some pictures of the Jabbawockeez, as well as links to two of their best performances,
