2025 Grand Prix de France: General Info and Pregame Chat

When you have a really bad day, skating can get your mind off your troubles....This weekend will be fun.
Tonight, I played back Mone Chiba's first Sr. Intl Comp, with PaulE and I in the front row....For me, it was
one of the most exciting women's FSs I have ever seen, and one of the most beautiful.
 
What is new about their RD? The official bio still shows the same two songs by Prince.
If I am not mistaken, it cannot be used for the Olympics. So they have to switch it eventually and they had mentioned "in the fall" so I suspect that we may see a new RD from them this weekend.
 
Alas the ISU is no longer publishing the old style entry lists. The stubs exist but there are no entries on them. :(
I am not sure I understand. I went to the results page and the entries are listed. Are you talking about another place where we could find entries and it's not longer there ?

Has it something to do with the music rights? I know that rights to Prince's music are more stringently protected than most other music and videos with skaters using his music seldom appear on YouTube or are quickly removed/have the music removed if they do appear. So, it can be that videos of the whole Olympic rhythm dance competition would be removed because of this one team using Prince's music. I hadn't really thought about it.

I read the his estate didn't want his music at the games

One of the great things that Doris does is show a link to the "start time for each skater". and at the individual comps I can look up anything I want about the skaters....but I am now printing out the start times....I take these to the living room and the big screen is ...on a clip board. Then, If I have any questions about the skater/program/music/coaches, I make notes and to back up stairs to my computer room. After the comp.
