Mass Update: 9/29/2011

Posted by Beast575 with No Comments

I’m sorry for the lack of updates, guys. I’ve been super busy. I wish I had time to put these all in their own posts, but for now they’re going to have to stay clumped together. Here are the major things going on in the LXD world that I’ve missed these past couple weeks:

LXD News

  • Mike Song (Umbra) posted some of the rehearsal footage of the dancers from the episode, “Reprogram.” Check it out HERE. The video features choreography by Mike Song and Kenneth “Free Boogie” Crawford, and is danced by Madd Chadd and Pandora, Umbras Brandon Phillips, Cassidy Noblett, H20, Taichi, JD McElroy and Jesse Morales, and Energies Free Boogie, Mike Song, Anthony Lee, and Tony Tran.

Keeping up with the LXD Dancers

I’ll try to come around more, and be more on top of my game. Hopefully there will be a few more posts up here in the next couple days!

Video: The LXD Performs at Choreographers Carnival 12yr Anniversary *UPDATED*

Posted by Beast575 with No Comments

The LXD performs at Choreographers Carnival 12yr Anniversary at the Avalon in Hollywood, CA on Wednesday, January 26, 2011. This year Carnival honored Travis Payne for the Lifetime Achievement Awards. The event is produced every month by Carey Yasis, Paulette, DMK in association with the World of Dance, Myron Marten and 21XL. You can catch The LXD shows on Hulu which is produced/directed by Jon M. Chu. Jon M. Chu is also the director for the upcoming Justin Bieber film Never Say Never.

The piece was choreographed by Harry Shum, Galen Hooks, and Christopher Scott. The performance features  Brandon Philips, JD McElroy, Johnny Erasme, Bryan Tanaka, Nugget, Slick, JRock, Pandora, Milky, Jeremy Marinas, Beastmode, Machine, and more.  The piece also features some previously unseen ballerinas, including former SYTYCD contestant Ashley Galvan.

Pandora writes on her twitter that this is a villain piece, so are we to assume that Justin Starr, along with these new characters, are set to turn to the dark side in Season 3?

Upcoming LXD Performance?

Posted by Beast575 with No Comments

Rehearsals are already in session for the year of 2011, and the LXD is prepping for a fantastic year. Johnny Erasme, one of the Umbras, tweeted earlier today:

LXD rehearsal. Great way to start off the new year….
He also spent time with fellow Umbra Brandon Philips the day before, so there it’s a safe bet that the Umbra will be making an appearance soon. We’ll keep you posted as more information is revealed!

It sounds like this performance tonight will be heavily Ox/Umbra influenced. The only heroes that have been confirmed to be in attendance tonight are Harry and Chris, but my guess is that their involvement is limited to choreography. It will be interesting to see how this performance plays out without any good guys around!
