Jabbawockeez Mus.i.c @ MGM, Las Vegas 08/22/10: Michael Jackson

A dance troupe that won the dance reality series, "Randy Jackson Presents America's Best Dance Crew", the Jabbawockeez' influence has spanned the globe inspiring minds through music and dance. Dressing in expressionless white masks and white gloves, the crew guides the audience's attention away from individual identities and towards a unified and synchronized group. They create a canvas for the audience to visualize the music as they paint beautiful and artistic imagery through precise, intricate movements. The name is derived from the fictional creature in Lewis Carroll's poem, "Jabberwocky." Known for creativity, unique choreography, athleticism and intricate synchronization, the Jabbawockeez are poised to change the way we see dance. Showtime: 7pm (select dates) & 9:30pm nightly.

Welcome to our series on exploring your masculinity.

This is audiotape number 1:

"Getting A Grip"

[ohthisguy]

damn... these guys speaking their opinions to each other on youtube.

[brothaman007]

@Darwin42ME i could careless if you think it was tiresome.

Funny that you think your opinion is any more entertaining.

[Darwin42ME]

@brothaman007 Your responses are getting tiresome. I said it was silly to complain since they have so much freestyle in their routines and your response is I have the right not to complain as well. I referred to the Fingerbangers who make most of the music the Jabbawockeez dance to, and you say it's not hard to do or written for them. I'm not quite sure you know what you're talking about. But this is youtube...

[brothaman007]

@Darwin42ME wait....

written just for them? No... they have remixes put together by the likes of people like me. Take for example this version of Dancing Machine.... not hard to do... but the song is not written for them.

Also, you have the right to not complain, just the same as I do.

[Darwin42ME]

@brothaman007 I think you underestimate just how "band-like" this dance crew is. The songs which they perform to are in many cases written just for them. It would be silly to take a routine and put it to another song. Not to mention their dance routines are so song specific.

Yet this said, I must admit with the amount of freestyle that the Jabbawockeez have in their shows, now 90 minutes long, it seems silly to complain about worn-out routines.

[brothaman007]

@Darwin42ME but this isnt a band.

This is instead a dance troupe that has a BILLION songs they could do shit too, but instead have used the same ones that they have been using for MANY MANY years.

Hell, if they used the same moves, but to different music would be an upgrade.

Do not get me wrong... im a huge fan

[Darwin42ME]

@brothaman007 If you go see a band you love, you want them to play a little of the old, a little of the new. Fans love their old stuff, fans love their new stuff.

[tyuiop747]

@brothaman007 Im sure its hard to come up with new routines and plus they switched it up at the new MUS.i.C. Its got much more. And also it might be for the people who havent watched ABDC, so they havent even seen those old dances.

Btw, i love the Jabbawockeez ! I wish i could go see them, so badly ! Nice vid.((:

[brothaman007]

while i love these guys, how shit is it that these guys are still using routines from 3-4 years ago.

[Kairizzle]

what is the begging song of the hole show?Do u know
