I cannot believe I will see him perform live this coming Tuesday. I am as excited as a little kid in a candy store. I get to hear Seal perform his new songs live. I am sooooooooooooo ready for it.

Yesterday, I walked into our lunch area at work and what do I see?

The Baltimore Sun has a LIVE section and Seal was on the Front Cover with a great article about this upcoming event on page 6T.

Here is a link to the article: Baltimore Sun Article. Unfortunately, no pictures.


Did anybody know Seal did this type of show before?

They mentioned Seal did this in Germany last year. Hmmm...German Friends...anybody?

Skater with Autism Will Perform at 'The Music of Seal on Ice'

Teenager figur skater Krista Kellner, who has autism, will take to the ice for a solo performance as part of “The Music of Seal on Ice,” which benefits Autism Speaks. Grammy Award-winning singer and songwriter Seal will perform live during this one-time-only music and skating production, while a cast of skaters including Olympic Gold Medalists Kristi Yamaguchi and Brian Boitano, plus many other world and national champion skaters, interpret the music on ice. The event will take place on Dec. 18 at 7:30 p.m. at the Verizon Center in Washington, D.C. and will be televised nationwide on NBC from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. EST on New Year's Day. $5.00 from every ticket sold will be donated to Autism Speaks.

Ice skating helped Kellner discover her competitive spirit and strengthened her confidence in learning to live with autism. At a young age, Kellner was frightened of large crowds, but she has now proudly performed two solo performances in front of 2000 people. “The Music of Seal on Ice” will be her third and largest performance.

Her parents Dave and Maria Kellner say “the focus and discipline of skating helped her to focus better while studying for school.” While Kellner has struggled in other areas of her life, she excelled at ice skating and learned to apply that same hard work and dedication to school and music study, achieving an A- average.

Kellner's coach, Elizabeth O'Donnell, is the founder of Gliding Star, a leader in adaptive ice skating for people with physical, mental, emotional or multiple challenges. O'Donnell began teaching adaptive ice skating in 1976 in Buffalo, N.Y. O'Donnell began working with Kellner when she was three years old.



I am so PROUD that SEAL is going to be part of such a special evening....I cannot wait to hear all about the show.

This is absolutely wonderful...May God Bless this performance!

Love, Janet

I CANNOT WAIT !!!!!!!!!!!

I ended up not being able to go last night...I was really looking forward to getting tickets,but couldn't afford to go this time of year can be so depressing....Sylvia I cant wait to hear what happened last night...but at least we'll be able to see it in a week or so on tv...

Sorry guys for the delay.

I could not find a free moment yet to finish up my review here at work. I am about half-way through the show.

I might be able to finish off later on, but right now, I got to leave this place of work and race to my part-time gig...here I come.

Life ain't grant?

Hey! Haven't been on this board in a good long while - some of you may know me (and have even met me!)

While the German Chick is still penning her review, I thought I'd share with you the best pics I shot that night. Many of them turned out blurry for one reason or another. It was a friend's camera I wasn't used to which didn't help but mostly I was trying to avoid the big 'network' camera that was filming because when it was at certain angles we couldn't even see Seal.

I guess it's not possible to post the actual pics in here so I will just post links to the photos. Enjoy!
