Photo Dump...

This is from Dec. 30th when I went to see Trans Siberian Orchestra.
They put on an amazing show.





















































This was Rice Park just outside the Xcel Center and the Ordway Theatre.

Wow, looks like it was an awesome concert. Great photos. I spotted one guy with short hair, how did he get in the band? I bet it was a fantastic evening!

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

LOL... Yeah, I think there are two guys.
The one black guy who was the narrator for the show, and the one white guy who is originally from Minnesota, so he got a big round of applause during the introductions. :)
I would say they are better off because they stand out amongst all the hair band boys. LOL...

Great photos. Do not know the band at all. Looks like a rock band , am i right?

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

Are you familiar with Mannheim Steamroller?
TSO is kind of the rock version of them.

[davesmusictank.livejournal.com]

Don't know that one either. Sounds mainstream to me.

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

They are both famous for their Christmas music.
Mannheim is for the most I believe instrumental and TSO is mostly vocal.

It was FANTASTIC. :)

[ellierachael.livejournal.com]

Glad it was a good show :)

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

Thank you. :)
It was almost 2 1/2 hours of show. :) And the last one of their Winter tour. :)

[ashmedai.livejournal.com]

Wow, that looks like a spectacular show! I think I've heard of this band, what kind of music do they play?

*hugs*

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

I think they are most known for their Christmas related stuff.
Are you familiar with Mannheim Steamroller? I would say TSO is a rock version of MS.

Here is a non Christmas piece by them.

No I'm not...I kind of live under a rock music-wise. And German YT won't let me watch the vids because of copyright issues. They block almost all contemporary music vids in Germany because of that.

UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[endlessblush.livejournal.com]

Your photos are incredible - wow
Looks like a great show

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much.
It was a fantastic show.
I tried to video one of the songs, but there is something I obviously need to learn about running this camera and using the video mode. UGH... It keeps loosing focus. UGH..........

[owlstorm_9]

guy in the 4th pic looks kinda like Meat Loaf... Most Impressive set of photos!!!

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

He kind of does in that picture. :)
That's also him in 11, 22, and 25.

[chaquir.livejournal.com]

oh wowwwww that looks like a good time!!!
You were right in front so it seems, or did you manage to zoom in that much with your camera?

The guys seem to be a bit of an eye candy too !

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

Yep, I snagged a front row seat. :o :o :o

Yes, even with the 80s hair there were a couple of cuties. lol...

[chaquir.livejournal.com]

wwowwwww how on earth did you manage to do that??


oooooooooh yes!! I sure wouldn't -dump- all

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

I had been watching the tickets available and the weather.
There had been a seat in row 12 for awhile, and then a couple days before Christmas all of a sudden there was a front row seat. The weather was still iffy, but I had to buy the ticket. lol...

[chaquir.livejournal.com]

AWESOME!!!

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

And now no shows until Summer. :o

[chaquir.livejournal.com]

*bummer*

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

Gives me time to save some money, hopefully. :)

[chaquir.livejournal.com]

well yeah, that's one way to look at it too

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

Fingers crossed. :p

[chaquir.livejournal.com]

1.3 billion perhaps?

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

Wouldn't that be sweet?
You would have a house guest just as soon as I could get a passport. lol...

[chaquir.livejournal.com]

LOLLLLLLLLLLL** oh dear

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

Wonder how long that would take? :o

[chaquir.livejournal.com]

hmm.. perhaps just 3 weeks or so?

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

Oh well, didn't win, so no biggie this time. :(

[chaquir.livejournal.com]

did the big jackpot go out?

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

Yes, finally. There were 3 winning tickets. They each get $600+ million before taxes.

[chaquir.livejournal.com]

that's a nice amount

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

I sure wouldn't complain about it. lol...

[chaquir.livejournal.com]

oh me neither

[elkster.livejournal.com]

Love the pics! My in-laws saw them last year too and said they were awesome.

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

Thank you. :)

So worth going if you ever get the chance. :)

[technophobe1975.livejournal.com]

Wow, some impressive visuals there (and I am not just talking about the guy in pic 13 ;) )
Seriously though, it does look a great show, plus you got lasers AND dry ice!

[thespian15.livejournal.com]

The guy in 13 is originally from Minnesota. :)
I think he kind of looks like Captain Hook from the tv show, Once Upon a Time.
