No Michelle Kwan? Wow. Wonder if she was invited?
Do they really expect to sell-out with those tickets prices?
Well, I don't think that those prices are too expencive.By the way European ice stars shows cost much higher.As I see the US have a lot of different shows around the country during the year and I think practically everybody can visit them,not only rich people.
I would hope that Michelle was invited to this (even if she is unable to be there), however this is still a terrific cast. I do think that the top tier prices are ridiculous, so we're going to attend this event at the next price level.
