Performance Art

An excellent show last night.
The clear loser, even to me and probably to the viewing audience was that boring tap dancer unable to pull off a Salsa routine even though her family is Colombian.
The young Asian guy, revealed to be a member of the Miami ballet already, pulled out all the stops to be a Hip Hop dancer. His solo also rocked with a clear progression and satisfying ending. Often these young dancers seem to just be pulling out their tricks to their favorite music even though they know they have 30 seconds.
Kent also timed his choreography, showing himself to be a serious competitor even though his persona is a boy from the sticks having a good time. In the performance, I felt like the weird crossed suspenders were a good metaphor of how he could have connected more with the partner even though he has that persona to keep up. Her outfit was classy sexy, and with a more serious look, he would have matched instead of looking distracted.
Robert picked a favorite piece of music, the Ray LaMontagne "Hold On Forever", and seemed to ignore the building tension in the song, not up to the performance standard.
Another visit from Sloane meant I was too exhausted to vote.
