After suiting up, Novitsky, Pesquet, and Whitson got to talk with friends and family using microphones behind a glass wall.
As always, their backup crew members: Fyodor Yurchikhin, Paolo Nespoli, and Jack Fischer, stood behind the prime crew members and continued to follow behind them up until they boarded the Service Tower elevator just in case a last-minute issue arose.
Under 30 minutes to launch.

Apparently, there's a problem with the NASA TV feed.
So, we'll have to watch the past footage from a small screen in the Korolev Control Center until the NASA TV problem is fixed.

L-25 minutes. The Service Tower halves are now retracting.
You can barely hear "Fight Song" by Rachel Platten playing over the Roskosmos feed.
Now "On Top of the World" by Imagine Dragons is being played.

When Novitsky, Pesquet, and Whitson rode the Crew Transfer Van to Gagarin's Start, it took 25 minutes to get from the suitup facility to the launch pad.
I can't tell what song is being played right now.

L-20 minutes. NASA TV feed has been restored.
Just in time to see Novitsky, Whitson, and Pesquet waving goodbye to everyone before boarding the Service Tower elevator.
All three have been aboard for about 2 hours.

Back to the launch pad shots. Showing the Soyuz venting liquid oxygen from its valves. Those valves will close about 2 minutes before launch.
