I envy anyone who gets to see this.

It was a GREAT show last year, when it was here in DC; too bad (for me) that it's been moved to Texas! If you're anywhere close to San Antonio, you should not miss it. For starters, only about 50% of the routines make it to the FOX show...and a lot of great ones were missed last year. Too, it's a great cause.

Hrmph. Make that $24.08 via Ticketmaster. I knew Ticketmaster sucked, but tacking on $9 worth of fees to a $15 ticket is ridiculous.

Nevertheless, I have my ticket. Looking forward to the show!

It's still a decent price for the show but yeah Ticketmaster is the gyp joint of all time.
Kimmie!

I really wish I could go. Unfortunately, Wednesday is my longest day of school and missing class the week before finals is probably not a good idea. And it is too far to do just a day trip.

Darn. :( No SOI, No nationals, No skating for me live for a long time it looks like.

[Teenes]

FYI, Plushenko is out of the show now. Sarah Hughes and Paul Wylie(!) have been added. Musical guests are Gloria Gaynor and David Archuleta.

And yes, definitely a very very good price for the show (having just gotten SOI tix today, BIG contrast in prices). I'm looking forward to it!

Have fun tomorrow! Looking forward to reading your review of the show. :)

[ryanbfan]

Yes, review please! And pics if possible :)

Photos are definitely forthcoming but after I've had time to process them, which won't be until at least after this weekend (I had credentials).

As for a review, I'll try to write a real one (was going to do it on the plane this morning but I've only had maybe an hour of sleep last night so I might sleep instead), but I was tweeting from the show and more or less have a realtime one:

Hope that holds you over until I get to the real one.
