Who will compete on America's Best Dance Crew Season 5? We don't know! But we DO know names for most of the crews that auditioned. Early in January, we will run a contest to let you 'cast' which of the crews you think should make it to ABDC5 Top 9. To help you choose and give these crews some exposure, we'll spotlight each of them and show any recent performance videos we can find.
Today: crews that auditioned in Atlanta. Note: our information on the Atlanta auditions is extremely sparse. PLEASE leave a comment if you have a video, photos, or information on these groups. Tomorrow: more Southern crews who auditioned for ABDC5.
