Last night was the first taping of the highly successful MTV reality show "Randy Jackson Presents America's Best Dance Crew" Season 3. I was there along with my new guest video hosts Ellen Kim and Kyle Hanagami of The Lost Kids helping out Pacific Rim Video to capture the excitement of Season 3.
During our pre-show interview of the crews inside the garage, the following clip Dominic of Quest Dance Crew shows the love for various dance crews on ABDC Season 3!
From the crew of Puerto Rico to the cloggers of Alabama and the excitingly and interesting dance genre called flexing, it sure looks like this season is definitely about entertainment.
Until next post, "look over your shoulder" for the crews of America's Best Dance Crew Season 3.
The show premieres this coming Thursday on the MTV Network. Check your local listing for airtimes.

Far*East Movement makes online history with first live online streaming of a record release party!
Last night in a studio in Burbank, CA, the hip hop/rap group Far*East Movement or also known as FM held their record release party for their upcoming album Animal. The most unique element of their party was the fact that they were able to bring the fans into the studios via a live stream of their party.
Realizing the importance of connecting to their fans, the group decided the bring the party to the people via the live online broadcast of the party which included a live show of Far*East Movement performing cuts from their previous albums and new cuts from the Animal album.
Through the kindness of StickAm, FM was able to interact with their fans through the blog and live chat. FM egged on their online party people to answer questions and win prizes throughout the release party.
According, to the group, an online release party has never been done before. This may be paving the way for new artists to connect with their fans through the net.

America's Best Dance Crew getting ready for Season 3
In the last few weeks, Randy Jackson and crew have been searching high and low throughout the U.S. for the next group of dance crews to battle it for season three of the widely popular MTV series "Randy Jackson Presents America's Best Dance Crew." I had the pleasure to check out the Los Angeles leg of the audition and will have posts with video interviews of auditioning crews, choreographer Napoleon D'Umo, judge Shane Sparks and the master of the show Randy Jackson.

Randy Jackson says, "Three Baby!" As in Season Three.
On in unusually warm Saturday in October at the Foresight Studios in Los Angeles, a grip of dance crews came a calling for their chance to vie for a spot on the MTV show, "Randy Jackson Presents America's Best Dance Crew."
With the success of season two, more unique groups have come to play on the hallowed ABDC ground. From Krumpers to a crew from the Aloha State, potential ABDC crews took to pounding the pavement to illustrate their moves to sway the judges to pick them as a crew for the live tapings.
In this first post of the upcoming Season 3 show, I had the pleasure of speaking to choreographer Napoleon D'Umo about his duties as a scout in widdling down the candidates for the live show, how he got involved and what crews need to do to wow the judges.

Napoleon D'Umo works behind the cameras to help decide what crews will head to the live show of ABDC.
My interview with Napoleon D'Umo
Next ABDC post will be of Quest Dance crew who participated in the Los Angeles Audition.
Season 3 will premiere some time in January of 2009.
