Here is another picture of Rudy and a review of the show from the November 7 Halifax Herald
"No Rocky Landings for Stojko's SK8,"
by Andrea Nemetz
The Rudy part of the review: "It was a fast-paced mix of comedy and drama with some thngs never before seen on ice...One such thing was Rudy Galindo's Rocky Horror Picture Show number. When the 1996 U.S. champion appeared in black lace and leather, blue eye shadow and pink lipstick, he was a dead-ringer for Tim Currie, suggestively slinking his way across the ice in a scene that could have been lifted from the cult classic film." More pictures of the skaters on the Elvis SK8 Tour, including Rudy, of course, are at http://www.figureskatingcalendar.ca/page8lo.jpg
A complete review of the first show in St. John, Newfoundland, November 3 , is at The Skate Blade . Written by Lesley Herridge, this thorough account is as close as fans who couldn't make it to Canada will get to the whole show! She has this to say about Rudy: "Rudy Galindo was after her [Liz Manley] and he skated to Sweet Transvestite...interesting. Heavy heavy make-up with black pants and a black sparkly shirt and gloves. Part-way through the program the pants were ripped off to reveal a bodysuit. The crowd went nuts. He landed 2 axel/2toe, 2 sal, 2 axel, and a cartwheel into a split to end."

    Events: Men's singles Elvis Stojko tells TNT about his preparations for competition E lvis Stojko has nothing to worry about. Sure, Canadian men have entered the last three Olympic Games as the reigning world champions ... and come a cropper. So what if Stojko is in the dubious position of making it four-for-four? Big deal. Pressure? What pressure? "It's a heavy load, but I want that when I go in," says the three-time world champion. "I've been the underdog and skated well. I've faced the pressure of coming back, the pressure of defending, I've done the rounds. I wanted to go in as world champion, to have that pressure as another challenge." Bold pronouncements, to be sure, but then, this is a guy who seems to enjoy a good fight. After a shaky short program at the 1996 world championship left him in seventh place after which one Canadian newspaper screamed "The King is Dead" Stojko skated a superb long program and clawed his way to fourth.
