DonS 3,324 Posted September 19 Got tickets for the wife and I to see Trans Siberian Orchestra in November. Never heard anything from them aside from the following song: I've heard that it's a good show. Has anyone here seen them? I understand that the show has a ton of rotating musicians. Singer-wise it's cool that Russell Allen from Symphony X is apparently still in the rotation.  He's a damn good singer, and I saw him in concert a few years ago, so hopefully he'll be part of the show we see. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thornton Melon 648 Posted September 19 I saw them 6 years ago, also in November when they do a Christmas themed show. Yeah, it was a good show. They have a bit of a hair metal vibe, which isn't my cup of tea, but they pull it off. Good musicianship, a couple of hot backup singers...you'll enjoy it.

I've never seen them, but know several that have and everyone raves about how good it is. It won't be Til Lindemann, but nothing is! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DonS 3,324 Posted Sunday at 03:31 PM TSO show was last night. Very cool! Definitely not recommended if you have sensory issues as it was non-stop lasers, pyro, video screens, hydraulic platforms, strobes, etc. Our favorite parts were trying to identify the different standard Christmas/classical songs they change up into symphonic metal. They did one acoustic bit dedicated to the guy who founded TSO as it sounds like he must've passed recently. The gal doing the singing was excellent and at one point they switched over to playing Black Sabbath "Changes" for a bit. They performed a badass version of the Nutcracker Suite and the best part was watching this hot chick in the section below us absolutely headbanging her (very nice) ass off. I won't see them every year but will certainly catch them again some time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maximum Overkill 2,507 Posted Sunday at 05:00 PM I just found out that a Trans for my R8 is $24,000. And that's rebuilt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
