Season 3, Episodes 8: “Mess in Aisle 7,” and Episode 9: “Alliance of the Dark” Online!

Posted by Beast575 with No Comments

These few episodes, directed by Christopher Scott and Ryan Landels, introduce some terrific new characters portrayed by some of the biggest names in dance.

You may recognize “America’s Best Dance Crew” champions IaMmE, and “Live to Dance” finalist Kendall Glover, for starters. These episodes also lay home to the on-screen debuts of many dancers who have worked with the LXD in the past: “So You Think You Can Dance” contestant Ashley Galvan, who performed with the LXD at Carnival; “Burlesque” actress and dancer Tyne Stecklein, who previously appeared in the LXD short film, “Matched“; Youtube sensation Angelo “Lil Demon” Baghdad, who has been with the LXD since their first performance on Youtube Live; and Jessica Lee Keller,  who danced with the legion on SYTYCD and in Beijing.

You also see the development of some of your other favorite characters with the assistance of choreography by Kenneth “Free” Crawford, Dee Caspary, and Christopher Scott. Enjoy!

LXD to Join Glee Cast On Tour!

Posted by Beast575 with No Comments

That’s right, folks! The LXD joins up with the Glee cast once again for their international tour! GLeeXD returns!

Dancers who have been confirmed for the tour (via their twitter pages) are Jonathan “Legacy” Perez, choreographer to the LXD’s premiere episode, “The Tale of Trevor Drift,” and Stephen “Twitch” Boss, who plays Mr. E in Season 2. Also on tour are William Wingfield (Katana), Luis “Luigi Rosado (Trevor Drift), David “Kid David” Schreibman (Karen AKA The Kidd), Shelby Rabara (Dark Nurse), and Danny Graham, who has yet to make an appearance on the LXD online web series.

Harry Shum, Jr. is attached to the project as well. In addition to appearing with the Glee Cast, he’ll be artistic directing the LXD with Chris Scott. Galen Hooks, and LXD newcomer Aakomon Jones will be choreographing. It is unknown whether any of these four will be performing in addition to their previously stated duties.

Another dancer who has mentioned being in LXD rehearsal is ballerina Ashley Galvan. She tweets that she has never been on pointe for so long (6 hours!). However, it’s possible that these rehearsals were for the LXD’s recent performance at Google in London.

For a full list of tour dates and times, visit the official website at http://www.gleetour.net/. For more details on the tour, visit Reuters’ press release page.

Stay updated on twitter! @LXDInspired

Step Up 3D Out on DVD/Blu-Ray Today!

Posted by Beast575 with 1 Comment

That’s right, folks! The third installment in the “Step Up” franchise makes its way onto DVD and Blu-Ray today. It features the talents of countless LXD members, and was directed by LXD creator/director Jon M. Chu. This is a “must buy” for anyone who is a huge LXD fan, and it makes a great stocking stuffer. Pick up your copy today!

I’ve done my best to place where individual LXD members can be seen throughout Step Up 3D. This way you know who to look for, and you may recognize some dancers that you didn’t know were in the LXD before. Some members appear on this list more than once, and that is not a mistake. Some dancers are used in more than one crew in the movie. Let me know if there’s anybody I missed!

If you have yet to see the movie, this could be considered as spoilerish, so check out the list behind the cut.
