New York area Mario Spinetti fans take note. Movmnt Magazine is sponsoring a free concert this Sunday, the 21st, at The Living Room on the lower east side. More info here.
It's been more than a year since most have seen season 2. Now that we're older and wiser (we hope), what did you notice this time around? Should someone else have made it into the top 20? How great is Clair Callaway? Did Jason get cheated? How was it to see Mary's choreography again? And Brian Friedman's? Did Ivan last longer than he should have? Who impressed you more or less than you remembered?
Newest comments will appear at the top.
Your weekend will belong to Benji, Travis, Donyelle, Heidi, Ivan, Allison, Ryan and the rest. MTV has a season 2 marathon scheduled beginning Friday night. We'll have an open discussion thread, so stop by and share your observations. Thanks to Loralyn for the tip.

The Daily Press has 3 mini-reviews from Tuesday night's show in Hampton, Va. Here's one:
Although my favorite dancer, Lacey Schwimmer, couldn't dance because of a knee injury, I thoroughly enjoyed the energy of the show and the enthusiastic crowd. Ballroom dancer Anya Garnis and contemporary dancer Shawna Noland did a good job of filling in for Lacey during some of my favorite dances -- the samba with local Danny Tidwell, who dominated the stage with his presence throughout the show, and a moving contemporary piece with Kameron Bink. I watched the show all season and it was interesting to see how the emotion of the choreography played to a live audience -- at times the solos seemed lacking, but during the group numbers the show came alive. -- Nicole Paitsel, Daily Press
Boss’ outfit - a black cap tilted sideways, a green Superman T-shirt, long red and black basketball shorts hanging low, bright yellow tube socks, and green Nike hightops - said he came to dance hip-hop and nothing else. No tutus today. With or without the persona, the intensity he has for teaching his style radiated from him for 90 straight minutes.
His musical choice, a number written by Robson, rattled the floor boards, but so did one stomp of his foot. Students were captivated by every move he made.
It was carefree but precise, commanding but rebellious, arrogant but confident. Miss a beat, miss a lot, so try to keep up.
While Lacey Schwimmer recovers from a knee injury, Shauna Noland dances her part in Dancing with Kameron Bink. This is from the Hampton, Va. show.
Wade's appearance on Dancing With The Stars. The song is Hi by Psapp. Travis Wall is in there...somewhere.
We certainly hope for Lacey's quick return from her knee injury, but in the mean time it's interesting to see some of the substitutions. Here's Danny and Anya's Viennese Waltz to Lifehouse's You And Me, possibly my favorite routine of the season.
Jaimie Goodwin fills in for Lacey in Mia Michaels' reunion piece.
Reports from the tour indicate that Lacey Schwimmer's knee injury has gotten worse and caused her to stop dancing for at least the next 3 shows. Shauna Noland is filling in for Lacey in the Dancing routine with Kameron Bink, Jaimie Goodwin is subbing for her in the Time piece with Neil Haskell, and Anya Garnis takes her place in the Samba with Danny Tidwell. Lacey and Danny's Viennese Waltz has been replaced with Anya & Danny's Viennese Waltz from early in the season. The Mein Herr routine has been dropped entirely as it was designed for the top 4 dancers. Lacey still appears at the beginning and end of the shows. The tour takes tonight off before appearing in Hampton, Va. tomorrow night.
Wade Robson will appear on tomorrow night's Dancing With The Stars results show. Reliable sources have confirmed that Travis Wall will be amongst the 8 dancers appearing with Wade. Thanks to Loralyn for the original tip.
