soo theme was def "unique" haha....take it out though it would serve u better off....some parts are sloppy (formations, n forgetting moves)

but overall i liked it....u girls are good dancers jus cut that intro n weird gimmick in the middle out! Gimmicks should be bhangra related

An explanation ? no prAblAm :D .. AVA was being creative :p .. We wheere doLlieEss :p that come out when your asleep
.. similar to those from the "toyhouse" if you've ever watched it..cept we had a ..bitt.. of a evil side..
I still think the idea was SIckkkkkk.. OVCOURSE i expected ppl to HATE it/ love it .. some ppl are open to new ideas
and others arn't.. the Idea was sposed to be more obvious *sigh*.. we had more props in mind we wanted Massive AVA blks ..
like those "abc" blocks kids play with .. you might have noticed we had three dinky little blocks at the back of the stage:p !
(they where sposed to be WAY bigger.. to make us seem liek tiny little dolls :p) If we where to do this idea here at home
..we diffenetly could have made exactly what we had in mind.. but only having 2 hrs before the mixer to make it waas
deffenetly a challenge ! .. Overall, we didn't wanna take away from the routine thats why we didn't go ovrboard with the
idea cuz we care more about the bhangra :D
..thanks for the feed back :)

Performance was generally good.. kind of sloppy at points

And as mentioned before.. there were shan-e sets present in the set.. such as the kaato segment.. same set (with the shan-e mix)

AVA girls collaborated with Shan-ee Punjab @ Bhangra Idols 2oo9 .. Thats why it may seem familiar :D

That would have been interesting.

I enjoyed the performance, and I think you girls don't need me to point out what went right and what didn't as far as choreography and execution go.

Just some thoughts about the theatrical aspects (which I thought had potential). Larger blocks aside, there were a couple of things which could have highlighted how the gimmick cohered with the dance.

First, I agree with Faizan. The little look back to the audience before dancing could have been more crisp. Also, I think a stronger sound cue and sharper lighting cue at that point would have been useful as the intro music to Punjabi came in quite abruptly and didn't really pack a punch. I think having a circular narrative would have helped as well. Though it may have been difficult fitting it in with the live set, going back to your doll-like state at the end would have accentuated the beginning's relevance.

If you wanted to go all in, the mix's mood could have been a bit darker and more chaotic. The beginning to the jhummar set managed to capture that but it would have been nice if it had been sustained. Strangely, I'm listening to Gajjde Gabroo's Pioneer mix as I type this and there's this really cool bit at the 5:50 mark that sounds like it would have suited your performance.

This may be a little extreme, and risked subjugating your routine to the gimmick, but did you consider modifications to your vardiyaan? Maybe also experimenting with grotesque porcelain or raggedy doll makeup? Would have been cool to see that.

Good stuff nonetheless, will be rooting for you at the next show.
