The judge’s decision was a “NO”.

11) Kevin. This was a “comeback” after trying out for season 3 he went on to train in contemporary dance, and came back tonight.
Nigel said, “Very good.” Mary said, “Was good, not great.” Ty said, “Why didn’t you show any of your contemporary training? Even without thought it was great.” I liked it and thought it was very good.
Kevin was sent to choreography and at the end of the night the judges decision was “YES”.

Tonight’s show notes:
Once again I liked the way the show was presented tonight. The embarrassing routines were held to just a few and the contestants sent to choreography were saved to last few minutes and then only the contestants that were going to Vegas were quickly shown. I think this made the show 100% more interesting than last years audition shows.

I have nothing else to report tonight except don’t forget the “Dizzy Feet Foundation” for kids. Click here for more information.

Atlanta auditions are next week.
