As the second season of
America's Best Dance Crew draws to a close, the people behind
America's Best Dance Crew Live have decided to bank on a growing popularity and add more cities to the current itinerary. The 2008 North American tour now includes 25 cities this fall. The latest additions are Las Vegas, San Diego, Phoenix, Grand Prairie, and Houston.
The tour will kick off in Miami on September 18 and will run for five weeks across the country all the way to October 23 when it ends in Houston, Texas. It will feature five of the most popular dance crews from the show's first two seasons as they battle it out a la the normal
America's Best Dance Crew each night, live. Most notable, of course, of the line-up is season 1 winner JabbaWockeeZ and b-boys on wheels BreakSk8. Three spots are still up for grabs.
"We're excited to bring
America's Best Dance Crew closer to you, live," said the show's executive producer and
American Idol Judge
Randy Jackson. "And we're thrilled we could just add these five shows to satisfy all you fans in
Las Vegas, San Diego, Phoenix and Texas. We heard your requests and read your blogs, and we're making our way across the nation to give America what it wants.
America's Best Dance Crew has the greatest fans, and we just want to say thanks by giving them the hottest show of the year."
The tickets recently went on sale last weekend and go from anywhere from $39.50 to $56.50. The complete and final line-up will be announced alongside the show's second season finale on August 21, Thursday. Tickets can be purchased at Ticketmaster.com. For the list of cities, click
