There was one other rhythmic gymnast that I hadn't really met before, and the two of us were going to be dancing with the ball. All week we were rehearsing long hours, putting together the routine, getting fit for the costume and finally meeting the band and working on timing with them. They watched the routine once and they played the music with us once. Then Robbie wanted to go to his hotel. Obviously they weren't used to working with dancers and Robbie didn't know he had to be placed certain places at specific times.
Timing is everything.
There was one part where he had to spread his legs so that I could roll on my ball through them. Well, at least we still had dress rehearsal. We finally got our outfits the morning of the show. Luckily I was wearing skin colored fishnets and they sewed the bathing suit to the stockings so that it wouldn't ride up my butt. Well, we'll just have to deal.
