Trans-Siberian orchestra

« on: December 29, 2007, 03:20 PM »

Anybody familiar with this group? I just caught their show in Dallas last night and it was fantastic... all great musicians. The drum, John O. Reilly, played an Ekit along with acoustic cymbals... wow! What a sound! And a fantastic drummer, too! I was too far away to see his kit in detail but it really sounded great with the orchestra.

You'll want to go see & hear them if they come to your area.

they integtare lasars and huge bursts of fire into their show... the best live show I have every seen!

One musician that they spotlight is a young lady from london who plays an electric violin... and she dances and runs up/down stairs, etc while she plays... Shocked

I should really go. They're in town soon, and I have never seen the show.
But, we need to slow down financially with Christmas spending behind us.

I saw it in Grand Rapids, MI this last year. SO AMAZING. never seen a stage show like that before. Such a large group of talented musicians. I can't imagine how long it takes to set up lighting etc.

My wife and I have seen them about six times in as many years. They come into Scranton, PA with their Christmas show each year and we try our best to get there. They are fantastic. We also get their new CD's at the show. They make great listening all year round.
