Anyone else having trouble with the Canadian feeds? All of the links bring up error messages for me now.

If I never have to hear Bjork again I'll be happy.

That was more in the spirit of New York then what Ross Miner did in the men's SP and he's American

Wang and Liu were portraying the night life of NY... Miner was portraying the morning commute

I gave up on the Canadian feeds. The Russian feeds are totally off in terms of synced sound. Really, it is like 5 years ago when most of the feeds were dreadful.

Doris would be the right person to ask about that. The thing is, modern covers a very wide variety of dance, so it might be a challenge to come up with one SD pattern for it.

But they should.

As a modern dancer, I would LOVE that. But... I don't think it'd ever happen. It's not ballroom, and which style would they go with? Can you imagine a Graham program?

Dear team Finland:

Please get rid of the Bjork and the horrible coloured dress. I want to support you but.. I really can't do the Bjork. At least it's not that dreadful it's so quiet song with her screeching...

Can't believe you people like Bjork but dissed Tom F'ing Jones. It's like I died and went to musical purgatory.

They should get more points just because they skate to Woodkid.

Yes PLEASE. Or a contact improv theme. That would be fun. And... odd. :reye: Anyways, Piper and Paul would rock it, whatever it was.

You said you wanted modern dance, Weak Ankles? Hope you like maudlin contemporary, cause that seems to be the only form it takes in ice dance.

I liked the unique music choices, but T/P didn't seem to do anything unique with them

Same! Loved both the Tom Jones and the Bjork. A+ for more original music selections.

Alas you are right. Well Piper and Paul's FD last year wasn't maudlin. But it just baffled people. Not me. I loved it. But you're right. ID choreographers are generally so unadventurous.
