*Not sure if this should be here or in classical so Mods feel free to move it.....

Recently saw this group live in Toronto and it was the best live show ive seen,the music was perfect,the lights,lasers,pyro,snow,band interaction with audience was all excellent.

TSO are a rock orchestra who play their own versions of classic songs and christmas songs like Dance of the sugar plum fairy,Beethovens 5th,O Come all ye faithful,Canon,Carol of the bells although they are probably best known for Wizards in Winter.

I love Trans-Siberian Orchestra

Didn't realised they had brought out their Night Castle, glad it's another non-christmas themed one, as Beethovens last night was brilliant

GhostInTheRuins

Beethoven's last night is their only album I can listen to because it's not full of christmas crap, it's is a great album though. Might try to get my hands on the new one.
