Trans-Siberian Orchestra

I have tickets tonight to go see the Trans-Siberian Orchestra at the Jobbing.com Arena

I have never seen them live so I am looking forward to the concert!

Please give a review.... considering taking the wife there for part of our anniversary evening!

Saw them the last few years. I was really impressed with the energy, music and pyrotechnics......Let us know what you think of the performance!

Well, They do have a lot of energy and good music but I am not sure I would ever pay to go se that show again (the Christmas show). I was disapointed in the lack of laser show, they do put on a good show but I guess I was expecting a little more.

I did take a few 30 second videos with my phone and I will try to post them tonight after work.

I was in a Suite at Jobbing.com so my seats were great but I can tell you if I ever do a show there again I will bring my binoculars as it was hard to see what was really happening. They have some hot girls (I assume they were, they were so far away) that bounced their heads around throwing the hair (hairography) but other that thay I am not sure what they were there for.

The fire show was impressive but after hearing Charole of the Bells 4 times (4 different arrangments of the same song) I was beginning to wonder if they had anything new, still not sure of that.

The wife loved it however so I guess it was not a wasted evening, the concert ran about 2 hours and 45 minutes.

AH too bad. Kids and I caught a show last year in Detroit and the whole thing was excellent. They had a lot of lasers going, esp during the pyro's. I guess the economy has impacted them as well. Also caught Manheim Steamroller and they were good, but no where near the showmanship of TSO.

I have been to 4 or 5 of thier shows over the years and they have always been great performances.
I went to a couple and told my wife I would go again when they had something new.
I saw them in Cleveland this year and finally, some new material.
They did have a great show, with lazer lights, dancers and exploding cannons. The videos were great.
I know they have several traveling companies. Shows must vary.

I had to tell some people in the row behind us to be quiet. I could never forsee myself telling someone to be quiet at a concert. Funny thing, I got tired of listening to them complain and make noise, I turned around once and asked them to stop. The 2nd time I I turned around and said Hey will you....and then several others jumped in and told them shut the heck up. That was the end of that group. Not another word!!
