Sounds interesting William. I won’t be going to the auditions since I know I can’t dance. I enjoy dancing, but I know I’m no good.
On the other hand, I would consider going if So You Think You Can Dance would let me interview some dancers and cover the auditions on my blog.

do you know if there goin to dc??
MixedDancer,
Doesn’t look like they’re going to DC. New York was the closest, but that’s already complete. SYTYCD Memphis auditions on March 16, 2009 look like they are the closest to DC, but that’s not very close at all.

Why are they not coming to Utah this year? I have found a lot of bogus dates and so I thought it was on April 3rd in Salt Lake. What’s the deal?
Hi Tom,
I’m not sure why they aren’t going to Salt Lake City this year. Seems like a bad idea to me since so many great dancers came out of Salt Lake City last year. I could be wrong, but I haven’t seen a Salt Lake City date for auditions.
In fact, on the official So You Think You Can Dance site it says “Scheduled Auditions Have Been Completed.”
I think that’s a bad sign that SYTYCD auditions won’t be happening tomorrow in SLC unless they’re doing something really special to find more dancers or something.
i was just watching and there was a song i cant find t starts like this- “stick around untill the sun comes up” and there were two dancers (male and female) and the girl had been in a car accdient and her mom was still in the hospital anyway i just wanted to find the song they danced to
Rachael,
You are talking about Arielle Coker and Phillip Chebeeb I believe. You can find the song they danced to: https://puresytycd.com/2009/05/28/so-you-think-you-can-dance-2009-seattle-and-la-audition-music/
Hello, I was wondering about the audition process. How early should we arrive? And why do they give you three slots for titles of your songs since you only have to dance two like you earlier stated? thanks
