Comments about ‘Trans-Siberian Orchestra opens holiday season with joyful show’

TSO puts on, quite possibly, the greatest rock show you will ever go to. Tonight was no exception, what a wild ride! Although I missed seeing Al roam about, Angus seemed to rock a little harder to make up for it. Anne Phoebe was not there which disappointed many a single male but the violin's were strong and we all look forward to having her back next year.

TSO ROCKS!

BEST SHOW & CONCERT EVER. It "hurt" to see Al sitting in pain, but he wowed the crowd nonetheless. This was my 3rd TSO concert and I plan to go every year I possibly can. They just get bigger and better every year. A stupendously talented group of musicians, a wonderful Christmas (and year-round) message, and great giving and generous people.

Yep, TSO ROCKS!

I was there last night and thought the vocals, for the most part, were mediocre at best. The laser lights and theatrics were neat, but I would give this show a c- and not worth the price of admission. The traffic around the E-Center was even worse than the show.

This was our second year, and it was even more awesome than in the Energy center! We had 29 family members there and drove 150 miles one way to see it; then home again to work today! Well worth the trip! We are already planning on next year! It helps to get the cd and read the story before you go, and learn the word of the songs, especially if you are a little hard of hearing!

My problem with the show wasn't that I didn't understand the vocals. It was that there voices were horrible. I guess that I shouldn't have expected much from a bunch of hard rockers.

I'm not sure what saddens me more. That I missed the show or the previous person's comment containing the improper spelling of "there". The correct spelling would be "thier". When being negatively critical of others, it might be a good idea to at least appear intelligent. Who knows? It might make you seem as intelligent as those hard rockers of whom you expect so little. In your effort to point out what you believe to be a flaw you revealed one of your own. Take a bow.

I first saw Trans-Siberian Orchestra a couple of years ago at the E-Center with my parents and a couple of friends. I was totally blown away!! Best Christmas musical group and concert I had ever seen, other than the Mormon Tabernacle Choir at the Conference Center last year. It was a great idea to start out with that is still going strong today. I will just have good and great things to say about last night's TSO concert. The music was great; so were the performers. Every single one of them. The visuals were so terrific; lasers, pyros, lights and the jet rocketed platform that launched the lead guitarist and that cute female violinist in midair. I also really liked the positive atmosphere of the whole thing and how people; young and old were enjoying themselves. Most of the Christmas tunes were awesome but I liked stuff from "Beethoven's Last Night," that cool gothic rocker, "Carmina Burana," and the keyboard ditty from "Peanuts." It was also cool to hear abit of "Kashmir" and a couple of years ago, they did "Layla." Thank you and Merry Christmas to everyone in Trans-Siberian Orchestra; musically and visually. YOU ALL ROCK!! Loved your shows!

I was a first timer going to the concert and thoroughly enjoyed the show last night. We had about 30 family members that attended. I think this will become a tradition!

This show is always awsome. Yes we missed Ms. Anna but it is interesting to see the performers that usually toue the east coast. But Terrible, stay home next time, leave the seats for those of us that enjoy it. And Sad, it is spelled their. Should have checked your spelling. This is an awsome show and gets better every year. Can't wait.....

AWESOME performance....these artists are such a talented group. The lasers, pyros, fire, was something to behold. I had my 2 daughters come as first timers, and they and their husbands loved the show. This was my 2nd show and I plan to go every year. Great holiday tradition. I attended with 7 others from my office.
