Spotlight on Southern ABDC 5 auditioning crews: Part. 1 - Houston

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 Houston. Note: our information on the Houston and Atlanta is sketchy at best. PLEASE leave a comment if you have a video, photos, or information on these groups. Tomorrow: more Southern crews who auditioned for ABDC5 in Atlanta
