Kicking Off Christmas Season with Boitano, Kulik, Czisny and more

[Willowway]

Anyone in or near Jacksonville, FL can kick off Christmas this coming Saturday night (7 pm, Veterans Arena) with not only Brian Boitano, Ilia Kulik, Todd Eldredge, Kimmie Meissner, Leonova & Kvalko, Michael Weiss, Alissa Czisny, Ryan Bradley, but also Martina McBride AND Mannheim Steamroller. It should be a lot of fun. Steve Disson told me yesterday that there are still a few good seats to be had. If you have friends in the area, please let them know.

Saw the Friends and Family show this past weekend at the new (and gorgeous) Penn State rink - suffice to say that the number of adorable children has never been higher (John and Sylvia's two beautiful girls, Naomi's wonderful family of three children, Kurt's boys, Liza (Ilia and Katia), Gabriela (Isabel and Rocky), the Wylie family (whose Dad was skatin' up a storm) and more. It was wonderful and I hope wonderful on TV.
