I posted a while ago, asking for opinions on whether or not I should go. I got pretty good responses, so me and the BF are going to see them tonight - our very first event at the Pepsi.

I figure, it sounds like a good Christmas show, and we haven’t been to a concert in 2 years and before that, never. (2 years ago we saw Blue Man group on their tour, and what a show that was!)

Also, I will only be able to post for another hour or so, and then I won’t be back until Monday! So, Happy Christmas!

Have fun!!!

They were in Raleigh earlier in the season, but I couldn’t go due to final exams and projects. ☹

Have a wonderful time. I’d love to see them live - their CDs are in constant rotation in my stereo this time of year.

Hope you enjoy it. I’ve never cared for TSO, even though I really like Savatage’s later work.

My GF and I saw them a few weeks ago. It was enjoyable, but probably not something I would have to see every year. Some of the performers were really great though. I think it was just too early in the season where we weren’t in a Christmasy mood yet.

I promise to post a review on Monday. As for pics, I’ll try, but I can’t see that I’ll get any good ones!
