something tell me that only the true fans wil stay for warm-up group 3. The Davis/White and Samuelson/Bates are back to back.

 

[dorispulaski]

Well, there's the Hubbells in group 3. And the CD is the Viennese and they are tall people with lovely long lines. They could conceivably place 3rd in this CD.

I'm not getting any picture from IN, anyone else having problems?

 

[dorispulaski]

I don't think they started yet--the Junior boys ran over quite a long time and finished maybe 10 or 15 minutes ago.

Nope. The feed came on and then froze.

Pratt and Obzansky must have done well:

No, mine's perfect, quality's pretty good too, much better than novice ones.

 

[london_calling]

Well the screen isn't blank, it has those different colored bars, like when a television station goes off the air.

 

[flyingnun]

That's what I'm trying to figure out myself

Try the 700K link on the NOW PLAYING tab. When I clicked on the 400K link, there was no feed, but the 700K feed is very good.

Group 2
Matthews & Gislason
She's in a red purple dress covered in sparlies, with very long white gloves and a random rag hanging off one arm. A little tight at first, but really quite a lovely dance, except for a couple leg line mismatches. Good edges and extension, I thought, and good speed.

TES 16.67 PCS 14.92 Total 31.59

 

[dorispulaski]

Lynn Kriengkrairut and Logan Giuletti Schmitt
She's wearing transparent blue net cheesecloth over her underwear.
They have obnoxiously loud edges and some line mismatches

TES 14.93 PCS 12.88 Total 27.81
