A couple of new Kurt Browning articles

A couple of interesting articles about Kurt Browning and his upcoming Gotta Skate special have been published in Canadian newspapers today:

This one contains a few spoilers about the Gotta Skate show as well as Kurt's possible plans for the future:

Speaking of Kurt, fans who get the Hamilton-based channel CH TV may want to tune in to the local news a bit more often this week--"Gotta Skate" was the lead story on last night's 6:00 news. They showed a couple of live clips from rehearsals and also interviewed Kurt and some of the other skaters who'll be performing in the show. They also re-ran part of this segment during last night's 11:00 news with a new clip of Kurt, Scott, Steven, and Brian rehearsing footwork for a group number. :)

Kurt fans who get this channel might also want to check out my new post in the "TV Alerts" forum--he'll also make an appearance on Friday morning's "CH Morning Live" news. :)

Thanks for the info; unfortunately, I don't get that channel. Can't wait to hear about the show from those who are lucky enough to be going.

Unfortunately, Kurt fans who don't get CH TV didn't miss much this morning...they only showed about a minute-long clip of the skaters practicing along with (very!) brief interviews with Kurt and Brian Orser. The clip might have even been a repeat from last night. :(

On the bright side, here's a link to another Hamilton Spectactor Kurt article (this one describes a fluff piece he taped at a local school which will be shown during the Gotta Skate TV broadcast, similar to the one filmed in a Vancouver school during his show last year):

Hope everyone lucky enough to see Kurt's show this weekend has a great time!
