SYTYCD6 Music - Top 18

Two of the three tappers on So You Think You Can Dance were shuffled out of the competition this week by the judges, despite Nigel Lythgoe's protestations. Bianca Revels and Phillip Atmore were bounced, leaving Peter Sabasino as the lone tapper in the competition (I don't think I would've predicted him as last tapper standing).

Standout performances this week were Ellenore/Ryan with the Argentine Tango, Karen/Kevin with hip-hop, and Kathryn/Legacy with contemporary. The Argentine Tango was even more impressive considering that Ellenore's dress got caught on her heel for most of her routine, and she never once let it outwardly affect her.
