Stars on Ice anyone?

[Justine_R]

Anyone going to the one of the many stars on ice tours?..im volunteering at one. :)

No, since I saw it on TV already, and I prefer watching competitions. If it weren't as expensive, I'd probably go, but there's not much of a draw for me to see pros doing the same watered down programs with props and all. :)

I'll be going to Montreal and Hamilton atleast :) I saw it in Syracuse and it was a lot of fun! I can't wait to see it in Canada with the awesome crowds we have here!

If I had it my way I'd be going to all of them since it's Izzy and Lloyd's last year.

Justine, what are you doing for volunteering? SOI seems to be a pretty self-sufficient tour, with plenty of roadies, etc. Are you going to volunteer for the arena?

I'll be at the last US stop, in Portland, ME, with my cousin Pookie! That is, unless her pregnancy keeps her at home... Then I don't know who I'll go with. It's Easter weekend, so I can't take my hubby (he has help the Easter Bunny) and I can't take one of my kids, because the Easter Bunny is not planning a stop at the Regency, that's for sure! Hmmm, this could be tricky!

I'm going in Vancouver! The crowds been great the last few years that I've gone, so I'm really looking forward to it.

I'd sad that it'll be the last time I see Isabelle and Lloyd though. Although, I certainly appreciate the great run they've had. :)

I will be attending the show in Hamilton, Ontario in April. Looking forward to the show. I saw the show on A&E and it looks rather interesting. I do believe that the Hamilton show will be taped for TV. I always enjoy those !!

Justing_R that's great to hear that you will be volunteering at one SOI show. Back in 1994 during the Skate The Nation Tour I had the opportunity to work backstage before the show. Friends of mine who owned a catering company were catering for the show throughout the day/night. So I asked to help and did it for the entire day up until 1/2 hour before show. Served the skaters their supper and got their water/trays ready in the dressing rooms. It was a great experience.

I'm going to Baltimore, MD this weekend to see the show!

I got to go to SOI in Portland Maine on April 12th 2003, and I shook hands w/ Jamie Sale!

I'll be at the Vancouver show. It's the very last stop of the tour, so we always get a little extra end-of-tour stuff. I hope they do something for Isabelle and Lloyd like they did when Scott "retired" from the tour a couple of years back -- especially since I'm pretty sure Isabelle and Lloyd actually are retiring!

I saw the show in Philly on 2/20. It was the 10th year for going and first time ever on-ice seats. My husband has a huge crush on Jamie Sale and guess who was shaking hands with the audience at our seat area--yep, Jamie, he was like a giddy school kid! We both got to shake Jamie's and Kristi's hands.
April 10th we'll be attending Champions on Ice.

Went to see SOI in Baltimore this weekend. It was a great show and a lot of fun for everyone. The music was wonderful, but then again, we love Joe Jackson! I liked the theme of "Time" and the transition skaters.

From the first four performances to the end, it seemed like nearly every skater fell or stumbled at least once.

Afterwards, we waited outside for autographs. Big crowd: ten people. They loaded up the buses inside a garage and waved goodbye to the crowd. Very disappointing to the kids.

By the way, SOI shirts and goodies are on sale at the website for 50% off. Prices at the show itself were original retail.

I'm going to SOI in Hamilton this year! I cant wait!!!

[mousey]

i entered a contest for soi.... but chances are im not going :cry:

[Michigansk8er]

I went in East Lansing 2 weeks ago. It was great, and everyone had a good skate. The venue was only about 1/2 filled, though, and it is a small arena. I doubt they will come back. :cry:

Was kind of wondering if Yagudin was hurting though. He looked like it, and only did a 3toe's, if I'm remembering right. I'd hate to see his hip end up like Tara's.

I've seen the show in Toronto before. The crowds there were the best!

[Skatingsarah]

I'm attending the performance in Ottawa! I cant wait
