Ice dance coaches's sun/moon signs:
Every last IAM and MIDA coach has an earth or water sign for sun or moon if not both. earth is stable and solidifying, solid water= ice it's so literal 😅
IAM coaches: Marie-France - Leo sun/Taurus moon Patrice - Sagittarius/Virgo Romain - Cancer/Pisces Pascal - Taurus/Virgo or Libra moon Josee - Cancer/Cancer or Leo Benjamin - Libra/Cancer
IAMO coaches: Scott - Virgo/Sag Adrian - Virgo/Leo or Virgo Madi - Pisces/Cancer Cara - Pisces/Pisces Sheri - Virgo/Taurus Justin - Taurus/Cancer Alma - Capricorn/Cancer
MIDA coaches: Charlie - Scorpio/Scorpio Tanith - Cancer/Sag or Capricorn Greg - Scorpio/Taurus
a large percentage of male ice dancers have earth sign sun or moon, and coaches are mostly former skaters, so that could be related
when we look at other schools, it's not 100% - there are exceptions, but still - in a list of 23 coaches, only 1 definitely doesn't fit the pattern.
Igor Shpilband - Cancer/Virgo or Libra Pasquale Camerlengo - Aries/Aquarius Anjelica Krylova - Cancer/Virgo (slight chance of Leo) Barbara Fusar-Poli - Aquarius/Scorpio (slight chance of Libra, but, Scorpio seems to fit her so much) Marina Zueva - Aries/Pisces or Aries (i always think of her as a double Aries, but there is a chance she's a Pisces moon) Massimo Scali - Sagittarius/Virgo Luca Lanotte - Leo/Capricorn

Romain Virgo Excites Fans With U.S. Tour Date Announcement During VP Records’ Record Store Day Celebration
New Post has been published on https://plugzafrica.com/romain-virgo-excites-fans-with-u-s-tour-date-announcement-during-vp-records-record-store-day-celebration/
Romain Virgo Excites Fans With U.S. Tour Date Announcement During VP Records’ Record Store Day Celebration
On Saturday afternoon, the VP Records store in Jamaica, Queens, was abuzz with excitement. For Record Store Day 2024, visitors flowed freely through the historic space, combing through rows of CDs and vinyl, meeting and taking photos with Romain Virgo, and enjoying an hours-long sound system session outside. Around 6 p.m., the event culminated with Romain Virgo’s announcement to the large crowd that he would be bringing ”The Gentle Man” tour to the Crown Hill Theatre in Brooklyn on June 7 and 8 – his first shows in the city since last year.
Hosted by Garfield ‘Chin’ Bourne of Sound Chat Radio, the event brought together Reggae fans from all of NYC’s five boroughs – and beyond. It featured sound systems like Bass Odyssey, LP International, Nexxt Level, Super Force, and Dub Electric playing vintage dubplates in VP Records’ parking lot, with artists like Valiant and Tarrus Riley making special guest appearances.
Authentic sound system culture was on full display as the various “sounds” went dub-for-dub against each other – a segment that was followed by Romain Virgo toasting over classic dancehall riddims.

For hours, fans took advantage of the opportunity to get CD copies of The Gentle Man, Romain Virgo’s new album, signed by the artist. Many were quick to scoop up this year’s exclusive Record Store Day titles: re-issues of Don Carlos’ Pass Me the Lazer Beam LP, The Aggrovators’ Dubbing at King Tubby’s, Vol. 1 and 2, and of Yellowman’s Zungguzungguguzungguzeng.
“The turnout on Saturday was a strong reminder that people still have a deep love for vinyl, Reggae music, and sound system culture. It was a great day for the community, and we look forward to putting on more events like this in the future,” said Chris Chin, President of VP Records. “Thanks to the VP Records team for their contributions to the event’s success, especially Dane ‘Fatman’ Bogle for his coordination of the sound system activities.”
Romain Virgo’s upcoming shows in Brooklyn are part of a longer string of U.S. East Coast concerts, beginning at Toad’s Place in New Haven, CT on June 6 and wrapping up at The Ave Live in Philadelphia, PA on June 9. The tour is in support of his latest album, which features Masicka, Patoranking, Capleton, and Jesse Royal.
More information on the tour will be announced soon.
