Be sure to stick around when the band leaves the stage... they always encore with an extended jam on their favorite classic rock tracks. Fun stuff indeed.

OH!!! You will love it! The entire show is pulled together with narration between the songs. So you get a wonderful Christmas story and AMAZING music to accompany it. The talent on that stage is fantastic - whether it's the instrumentals or the vocals ... all great!
They are usually in my area around mid-late November, so it's the best way for me to get pumped for my holiday season. I start listening to them right before I go to the concert and all the way through the holidays.
ENJOY!!!

I've been trying to see TSO for years now. I'm a big Savatage fan(the band TSO's a side project of) and TSO rocks as well. Thing that ticks me off thought is Christmas Eve(Sarajavo) was originally a 'Tage song(off the Dead Winter Dead Cd) that radio wouldn't touch but when it was released as TSO radio took off with it, go figure. Actually if you like the way TSO does classical pieces check out Dead Winter Dead( it's a concept album, about the Bosnian Civil War), two songs come to mind Mozart and Madness and Dead Winter Dead(Prelude). Not to mention some really cool vocal stuff as well.

No
They have to be the biggest crime against music ever perpetuated in the line of Christmas. Take the tired cliche of a "heavy" rock band playing with a strings section than add generic Christmas music.
Right up there with Evening at the Pops and the Nutcracker

Yeah, their music is really great to listen to at Christmas. I love that Christmas in Sarajevo song. It's amazing. Hope you enjoy your concert!

A delightful Christmas treat for the season! I love them, sadly I will be out of the country most of the dates they play.

Love them :) A lot of people don't understand their music though, so they can't appreciate it as well as others, but I think it's really amazing! Have fun a the show, I wish I could go to one, too! :)

They're ok for the holiday season.
I liked them better when they were Savatage, when John could sing & before Criss tragically died.
