Are you sure you aren't looking at the Canadian cast? Elvis and Keegan were both in the Canadian SOI this year.

I am going to the one n Wenatchee also. It only has about 5500 seats so it is a great place to see SOI.

Well, I am turning myself into the nursing home again. I just went to both sites and you are correct. The SOI tour, Canada, is full of Canadians and the US tour is full of Americans. With no mention of Satoko.
I have false memories for sure but I would swear on a stack of bibles 4 feet tall (OK, i am not a Christian but still.....) I found a link that gave the top four US skaters and two Canadians.
I am appreciating everyone here I follow on FB/IG posting their selfies with the stars.....

Boise is a neat area. I went there to see Celtic Woman for the third time. Over the past 30 odd years, I have stopped there over night in Sept. after the Reno Nat. Air Races, making the ride in one day but with the traffic, changing it to two later in life. Like Spokane, it has grown way too big.

This happened three weeks ago from what I understand.
I have read on other forums that customers at SOI were moved when they had blocked seats, in the weeks since this was originally posted. Since all of this is online reporting, no idea if it is true.

Better not try that cra& with an old person. "Oh, you will be happy in the 20th row...." An obstructed view is an obstructed view. You dont wait till the day of the event and offer them their money back or different seats unless they are better. Never mess with old people. Here we have a pic from 2009 Cleveland Nats, Novice ladies short program in progress. Security went seat to seat and threw everyone out of their all event seat over to the other side of the Arena. Except this lady. She paid for that seat, it was hers, and she wouldnt move. The next day security came by and apologized for doing this as they had no reason to do it.This happened three weeks ago from what I understand.

Accidents happen. That is why you keep some seats in reserve.

I really like living here. We are about 1/2 mile from the Greenbelt & Boise River and about 15 min from downtown Boise. The Morrison Center on the Boise State Campus has a lot of shows/productions. (I'm assuming that's where you saw Celtic Woman).
Counting down to SOI!

There seems to be much less crime and homelessness there , unlike Spokane. Eco-friendly ethanol free gas is easier to get, too. Spokane has a wonderful center for the performing arts....very little parking, and you really dont want to walk around there at night. Spokane was great in 1989, and even in 2007 and 2010 for USFS Nats....it will be an experience to go down there on Thursday night with 10,000 other people now that they have built the track and field center and soccer stadium next to the arena.

FYI advanced parking for $28.75 is sold out. Best to go early and hunt.

SOI Spokane, my review
I wont harp on the parking but instead of paying a large chunk of cash in advance or learning how to use their QR kiosk, we took our old car and parked it 8 blocks away and walked. Got out fast and home quick.
The metal detectors were odd. Keep your keys (I had two sets) and cell phones (I had two) and just walk through. Bag and camera security was very tight. The show started 10 minutes late as people had no idea of the parking fiasco. Levito was fine except that she decided not to jump. Andrew skated to some mishmash and had issues to his jumps. Ilia skated to rap numbers and didnt jump alot and had issues with his landings but the crowd loved all his back flips. There was a nice moment when all the team gold winners stood on a platform and held real or simulated medals...at the end of the show, Ilia seemed obsessed with parading his OGM around the arena alone and asking people to stand.....
The group numbers didnt do much for me, especially the drawn out "its too darnedd hot"
The hit of the evening was Alysa doing basically her Oly short program without the combo (a show rink is smaller than an official rink) and Jason's exquisit performance in the second half. Ellie and Danny were fine and avoided throws and jumps all together. Amber's second act was fine with no major crash landings...Evan and Maddie were fine...I wondered how many people knew that in 2007, she and Greg Z were novices here and Evan was a Jr.... 19 years ago....Thats alot of skating......
The lower bowl was basically a sell out, when you consider the 4 flat screen TVs in the corners blanked out about 50 seats apeice.
The crowd favorites were clearly Alysa, Ilia, Amber and Jason. Alysa even made fun of her statement "That's what I am frigging talking about!" or something like that.
I am glad I went to THIS SOI. Doubt if I will go to another...dont like the show lighting (bring a ball cap if you are old) and I miss the international Champions on ice.
Felt sorry for this lady. She was given a seat on top of the section blanked out by a big flat screen and was made to look through a huge grate used to cut off access to the blanked out seats. I asked my wife if it was an optical illusion but she said no. Wife had a good time (she is very animated during performances
Loves Jason (who doesnt?)

21 shows down, 7 to go! Some of the athletes went to Colorado springs in the last week to tape a 90 min Peacock special with Adam Ripon to be aired May 30th.

A well written detailed review of the SOI show at Chicago, which captures much of the excitement.
it doesn’t hurt that the author adores Jason (among others, she is generous).

I went to Stars on Ice and it felt like a rock concert
An evening with Alysa Liu, Amber Glenn, Jason Brown, and Ilia Malinin's eight backflips
