Probably the best show I've ever seen. Fantastic guitars, light and laser show is mesmerizing and the vocals are so good.

Female vocalist Chloe Lowry is the best I've ever heard. Highly recommend this to anyone.

I've been a couple of times and it's always a great show.

I could never decide if it was going to be a total cheese fest or not. Sounds like it's worth checking out.

It is. 10-15 minutes of cheese in the 2 hours. The rest is stunning. And like I said, the musicianship and vocals are incredible.

Look at it like a show more than a concert.

Listen to the end in both. She rocks these vocals.

My wife and I found it a cheese fest and made it 45-60 minutes with her laughing hysterically (and inappropriately) We left. Everyone else there was riveted. To each his own. We based the decision to go on the rock'd out version of the well known Christmas songs. I felt it was more like an awkward church sermon with over the top lights and guitar for the bit we endured.

Your second link is Russell Allen from Symphony X. He is one of the best vocalist in the prog metal scene. TSO is basically a rock opera. Too bad you didn't know what you were getting in to. The first half of the show is pure cheese. The second half rocks but I guess you missed that part.

Yeah the rock opera part would lose me every time. I think many people go only knowing the commercially popular songs not expecting 50% cheese. Lots of people love it. I just like to caution others not to base ticket purchase off the limited exposure you may have. Knowing the second half rocks would not changed mind. It was comical and my wife still laugh about the experience every holiday season.
