    just announced it's winter tour for this year. They will be here in St. Louis December 9 playing 2 shows in one day because they have become so popular. It is a tradition with my mom, my brother and I to go every year. We also usually have cousins, a few aunts, etc who join us if they can work their schedule around it. For us it is also something we share because of the oppression of not being able to celebrate Christmas for so many years.

    If you love Christmas music and you love Rock I highly recommend you check it out. Not only is the music amazing (classical music and christmas songs played on electric violins and electric guitars), the light show they put on is spectacular. They also tell a story. They have a narrator with an amazing voice that tells a story between the songs, and the songs help fill the story in. It's a great experience.

    If you are not familiar with the Trans-Siberian Orchestra you can check out these you tube clips... however, it's nothing to the experience of seeing them live:

    Thanks for posting this, I love their shows!

    I went to see them a few years ago and my son, a baby at the time was mesmerized by the light show.

    I hope you get to go again this year.

    My only disappointment is that every year they talk about doing a summer tour of their Beethoven's Last Night album and it never materializes :::sigh:::

    I just noticed that they will be in some rinky dink town just outside the city, why would they do that?

    I don't know... I only know they are very popular and have a huge following here in St. Louis.

    Wow, I can't believe no one is excited about this. I guess I'm just weird that way. Check out the Faith Noel song on the link above.
