Wednesday after a full day of class, lunch, class, party, and a ton of rain, I drove out to Raleigh to see Trans-Siberian Orchestra in concert! So exciting! I've heard a lot of really awesome things about their shows; they're super elaborate, with lights and pyrotechnics, along with awesomeness. On tour they only use a small string section, ( Read more... )

Lucky for you, they are an awesome group.

I'm so glad I went! I feel like I have fulfilled some sort of life experience :D Do they ever head across the pond?

duowolf December 4 2009, 20:17:52 UTC

I don't think so, at least not in a while. It's a shame really though maybe they're come over sometime soon.

Awww man. Well, they apparently play in North Carolina every year, and I'll be here for at least one more year :D

I'm glad you had a good time! I went a couple of years ago with my parents and the show just blew me away. :D They had Geoff Tate (of Queensryche) join for the vocals for a few songs. It was amazing. I was freaking out hardxcore and my parents were all "who is that?!"

Love TSO! I never realized they had made a video for Christmas Eve. The ending made me smile and snuggle into my covers. Kitteh!

the_great_elk December 6 2009, 00:44:28 UTC

Kitty! I was actually surprised at how... different their video was from what they perform at concert's, and part of what the song is supposed to be about. But it's still an amazing piece.

Whoa, that first video is pretty badass. I love that song, but that's the first time I've seen that video!

I'm so happy you got to see TSO live. I went to see them two years ago, and it was amazing. I wish I was going again this year!

the_great_elk December 7 2009, 17:35:55 UTC

YOUTUBE SEARCH WHOOOOOO!

Thanks! I might go see them again next year, since they play in the area every year, but I'm not sure I want to deal with the traffic. *so lazy*
