kegtapr Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 Damn, early show in Rochester again. Think I'll hit up the Buffalo one instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Jack Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 No Syracuse, Rochester is during the week, Buffalo is on an away game weekend, and Albany is the same as the last game of the season. Looks like not for me again this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chilly Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 How much do they change up year to year? I went last year, and liked it, but not enough to go again if they didn't change much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fezmid Posted August 10, 2010 Author Share Posted August 10, 2010 How much do they change up year to year? I went last year, and liked it, but not enough to go again if they didn't change much. The first half is always the same - it's the story of Christmas Eve. The production changes (the stages have been getting more elaborate over the years, giving the musicians more mobility), but the music doesn't. The second half is mixed up quite a bit from year to year and is usually completely different although they always play some fan favorites.

bbb Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 I love the first part (I can listen to that album in August and am surprised I haven't yet this year.) My niece, who I go with every year, hates the narrator, and therefore likes the 2nd part better. I can get kind of bored during the 2nd part. There is only so much head banging instrumental heavy metal I can listen to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duey Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 I had to miss them last year for the first time in six years, so I will def be there this year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acantha Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 I've been wanting to see this for a while, and I think things might line up this year to do so. I've looked around the site, but there doesn't seem to be a "sign up for notification" type thing...does anyone know about when tickets tend to go on sale?

bbb Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 Seems to me that it's usually beginning of September for the fan club tickets.....You can get seats close to the stage - I've had front rows........But, I think the light show, etc. is better seen from good lowers further back and I've got them in like October or November.........Last year, I waited too long and tried getting them in December, and all that left were 300 level.....I had to pull some strings to get in the lower bowl.

Acantha Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 Thanks. Guess I'll set up some reminders starting around end of September so that I don't forget to start looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed about sitting further back. I had I think it was row 4 and the spot lights they had along the foot of the stage would hit us right in the eyes sometimes as they moved them around. But it was cool seeing them perform that close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
