    Great Britian's Olympic Figure Skating team of John and Sinead Kerr today used the Reanimation remix of 'Crawling' as the backround music for their choreography at the Vancouver Winter Olympics. While this may be deemed as small news, it was certainly interesting to see some presence of Linkin Park at the Olympics! You can check out the video below:

    Please keep in mind that this is not the video from tonight, but from a practice run of the performance. We are actively hunting down the actual performance itself and will let you know when we have the footage.

    This is actually from the practice run. Unfortunately the final performance isn't up yet. I've edited the news post to reflect this info.

    No, I thought it was too. I've been told from Adam though that it's not the right video. He, like us...is searching like mad for it.

    First LPAer to find the final footage and let us know gets a gold star! :p

    Wrong song choice. They should've ice-skated to Given Up!

    Wow. Though a practice run, the icedance was really nice.

    They really felt like they were two different, thinking differently but supportive, And then there times of unison; of complete actions and very complimentary. Quite a fitting song, I must say. :) It's a nice touch on contemporary music.

    and after just a preview of the icedance for Requiem for a Dream, dang. As dramatic as the song is, so too, the dance is very dramatic. DAng.


    Edit: Yeah, Matt Cherette should really keep his bias of the band off. Pfft.

    Maybe not the best choice for their song but it's still cool. And their run looks sick.
