Part of the list of quarterfinalists were revealed in America’s Got Talent Season 6 Episode 11. Tonight we’ll find out the rest, or at least most of them.
The first of the standby groups is the magicians. After a couple of rough acts, we get Landon Swank. He floats a box with balloons and then produces a hot blonde from it. Seth Grabel then does a bunch of illusions. Too bad about the mishaps, for which he makes sure to blame the girls who are helping him. So if it went right, would the credit go to them?
Last night, we saw singers and more singers. Tough singers, sissy singers, even singers with chicken pox. Tonight the remaining singers join us as part of the kids acts. First, we see Tanner “Lil T” doing a little dance. Next up, Avery & The Calico Hearts sing another high pitched song, but they acknowledge that not all the notes were in tune. The SH’Boss Boys do some more rapping. Anna Graceman, who for some reason has been relegated to day 2, sings Rolling in the Deep while playing keyboard. Very good, but she also acknowledges it’s not perfect. Still, no way she doesn’t make it.
The danger acts are up next. Tonight’s theme is fire. Fire eating, fire juggling, then the Sandou Trio Russian Bar group not only has someone who jumps on the bar, but does so while holding flaming sticks. One to watch. Pat & Phil, the Smage Brothers, return with their motorcycles.
Large dance groups take the stage first for the dancers. For some unknown (but not good) reason, they’re followed by Sam B, who I fear will make the quarterfinals.
One of the novelty acts says he doesn’t think any of them are going through. Pretty much because they suck. Leonid has apparently decided he’s a dancer. Then we see a juggler, a bodybuilder who thinks he can dance as well as Leonid, and a yoyoer (he’s at least good). And what would the weird acts be without Meet Me at Fairfax and 3rd, the group where one guy sings (badly) while the other one stands on his head until he gets his cell phone rings?
Oh, and since we haven’t quite been hit over the head with this category enough yet, now it’s time for even more singers, a second group of male singers, including Dylan Andre, Mauricio (who the judges admit is a joke), and Daniel Joseph Baker.
Now that the singing is over, it’s time for the decisions. The Smage Brothers, Sandou Trio Russian Bar, Avery & The Calico Hearts, SH’Boss Boys, Anna Graceman, Landon Swank, Seth Grabel, Ian Johnson (the yoyo kid), Sam B (really?), some group of dancers with a lot of cleavage, Daniel Joseph Baker, Mauricio (oh, c’mon), and Dylan Andre are headed to Hollywood.
