Schickmeister Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 Okay. Cool. Although this really doesn't help the fans much except that I am now more certain than ever that there will be another "fight club" in this show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luvs me sum mello! Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 "complex choreography" The Cavaliers always do some, but making a point about the choreography makes me excited about how extensive it will be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 I was really hoping for some "Kung Fu Fighting" by Carl Douglas. Maybe a little trumpet feature in the middle of the show Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sburstall Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 "complex choreography"The Cavaliers always do some, but making a point about the choreography makes me excited about how extensive it will be. Well it is different than the "simple" choreography they have been doing in the past. Anyways, all original. Should be interesting (at least). IMO, in terms of entertaining, they are batting .500 in that area. Just as long as it doesn't sound like Spin Cycle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Don-O Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 I'm kinda hoping for a steroid-pumped upgrade of the dragon drill from their Variations on a Korean Folk Melody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
