One word describes tonights TSO show at MSG...UN-!@#$ING-BELIEVABLE!!!!

 

What a night! These guys were amazing, playing for nearly three straight hours, and totally blowing away the 13,000+ in da house.

 

I know there were a couple other TSWers going tonight, so I'd love to hear you thoughts on this fanastic concert! :blink::blink::w00t:

They were really pumped to play there. For many of them playing MSG was a dream come true. Glad you enjoyed.

Trans Siberian Orchestra

AWESOME band that plays Xmas concerts.

 

Did $1 from every ticket go to charity?  Apparantly when they played in St. Paul, it was the largest crowd ever (over 9,000).  Sounds like MSG was a *tad* larger :blink:

Yep...right before the show began they presented a check for $13,000+ to a local childrens rehab hospital.

Maybe because it's been talked about nearly every other day for months? :w00t:

 

It actually took me awhile to figure out where MSG was.... :o

It's obvious that you've never heard them play if you're calling it "cheesy orchestral christmas music." :o Sad, because I provided a link that you could download clips from and everything.

 

Read and learn, young Grasshopper:

you're right...and maybe the word "cheesy" didn't need to be in there :o .  i'm just not a big christmas music kind o' guy.

It's not really "Christmas music" in the sense that you're probably thinking of. It's almost all original, very story-centric, played by VERY talented artists. They don't play Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer or stuff like that. Also, they have a small orchestra, but it's definately not normal orchestral music. How many orchestras have an electric violin? :(

 

Listen to some clips and see what you think. Xmas Eve and Other Stories (their first album) is still my favorite.

I was there with my wife and 2 kids. TSO put on a great show! We all enjoyed it. We also made to see Rockefeller Center and the tree. It was pretty cold walking the streets of NY yesterday. And the stores, like Toys R us and Macy's were PACKED. I'd hate to work there this time of year. Just crazy!!!
