i went twice, and it was the same both times. Not only that, but everyone adds all this hype to it, and i was really let down with how ok it was. Ide rather go see a musical or something.

I was sitting next to some people who had seen it every year for the past few years. Before the show we were promised more pyro and more lights than other shows, and the person next to me said that this was by far the craziest show they had seen.

Have seen them twice, and loved it! I saw them at medium-sized theaters, so the pyro/lights stuff wasn't too over the top. I have heard stories though... need to go see them at a big-time venue.

For those who like the music but don't want a KISS-esque show, go see them at a theater or something. The musicianship is fantastic, and it really is a wonderful show... it's more of a story than a concert, and it can be pretty moving. I'd recommend it to anyone.

I see them every year. If you can get floor seats, it's fantastic (for the fake snow, band members running around past you, etc). I got front row tickets once and was blinded by the lights, but it was worth it for the band members jamming out right in front of you, on the stage and on the arena floor. The show can get a little boring, especially the Christmas part (it's basically the same every year). I really love the rock concert part though, and they always bring on a special guest. Some of them were only so/so, but a few years ago they had Joan Jett, and this time around Steven Tyler. I'm definitely planning on seeing them again.

Yeah who am I kidding. All I need is one good feature and it's 'useable'. Once I used to work with this chick who had a great rack (was kind of fat though), but for the most part was just a total ****. So once, after she stuck me with a bunch of work to meet her deadline, right before the end of my day on Friday, I told her no way, and said, "Oh yeah, do you remember when you were wearing that red sweater and you bent over my desk to make corrections on those graphics I did for you?" She said that she did. "Yeah, well I used that the other night." I might have stolen that from a movie, I can't remember, but the sting was pure bitter just the same.

Then I left. Funny story. About a year later, after I no longer worked with her I ran into her in a bar. I talked her into servicing me in my car. Then I left her in the parking lot when she asked for a ride home. :ninja::hiding:

Well... that is no doubt the best story I've ever read associated with the Trans-Siberian Orchestra.

Maki... once again... Thank you! :p
