The Trans-Siberian Orchestra Winter Tour 2010 will be at the Pepsi Center in Denver on Wednesday, December 22 at 4:00PM and 8:00PM and the World Arena in Colorado Springs on Thursday, December 23 at 4:00 PM and 8:00 PM.
The Trans-Siberian Orchestra started with Paul O'Neill's vision to, "Create a progressive rock band that would push the boundaries further than any group before, following in the footsteps of Emerson, Lake & Palmer, Pink Floyd, the Who... but take it way, way further" (TSO Biography). The Trans-Siberian Orchestra is made up of Paul O'Neill: Composer/ Lyricist/ Producer, Robert Kinkel: Composer/Co-producer/Keyboardist, John Oliva: Composer and Al Pitrelli: Music Director/ Lead Guitarist. So far this rock opera band has sold over 7 million records world-wide, and according to Billboard Magazine are considered to be one of the top touring artists of the decade. TSO has a $20 million-plus production that tours to over 80 cities, playing for over 7 million people adding up to ticket sales over $280 million... now that's what I call success! TSO main plan was to make six rock operas, a trilogy about Christmas and a few rock albums.
Trans-Siberian Orchestra's first rock opera, Romanov, was temporarily put on hold so TSO released Christmas Ever and Other Stories as their debut album. This album went double platinum, which allowed the band to create their Christmas trilogy by releasing their second and third albums: The Christmas Attic and The Lost Christmas Eve. During the time TSO was finally able to release their first real rock opera, Beethoven's Last Night.
Speaking from experience TSO puts on one of the most incredible performances. Nothing can compare to their electrifying music combined with two stages, pyrotechnics, lights and lasers. This is definitely the must see show of the season!
