Who Will Skate at the Gala?

[screech]

Anyone else find the title of Plush's song kind of amusing?

DesertRoad, going through this thread, I'm at a point where I don't even need to look at the handlename to guess which comments are coming from whom.

Just about all the negative, overly unnecessarily critical ones are from you.
It's just a gala for goodness' sakes.
Relax some and enjoy it!

If you can't handle the snark, the intertubes are not for you.

Don't care for Kavaguti and Smirnov's bit of show-skating. Flash for the rubes.

Mao shows these other skaters how you can have a gala program that's entertaining, full of difficult elements and show some skills you can't see in competitive skating.

Plushenko rips off Lambiel's exhibition shamelessly, from the oldies French ballad right down to the knee slide. Of course, he doesn't have the dance skills and musicality to pull it off.

Loved Plushenko and Mao. Such artistry and fire in their exhibition pieces. If only they would bring that to the same level in their competitive programs!

HaHa Okay.
I'll just go and hang out with people who might actually appreciate the efforts of these skaters.

Sounds like a plan... do you have room for me at the table? I can bring treats - ?

By the way ... totally OT ... Canada just won the Gold in men's curling, and is now tied for the record in gold medals ... yay!!!!! (Okay, I'm Canadian).

'bye, enjoy the skating everyone. I need to divide between celebrating curling and enjoying skating.

Cool beans! But I think that'll end right there. Go Team USA!!!!

*sighs* we have about 20+ minutes until we get DomShabs doing The Matrix!

I appreciate the efforts of these skaters... to find the worst, soul-drainingest, ear-bleedingest music known to man and subjecting it to an international audience. Really, it's really quite awe-inspiring in its Lovecraftian horror. And I don't even want to know where you can find people who appreciate Michael Bolton and Celine Dion. ::shudders::

Be glad we didn't get the cheesefest known as Dima Bilan! Anyway, gonna listen to some Gaga before DomShabs are on!

I love Celine Dion!
