Nothing says Christmas like a screaming guitar!

Precautions were taken. Sunglasses, noise reducing earplugs...plenty of time for the drive.

While we arrived on time, I really needn't have bothered with the other two items.

The Trans Siberian Orchestra is not meant to be heard through earplugs.

I took them out about an hour into a nearly three hour show.

And THAT'S when the show REALLY began!

You know you've been to a great show when Seether, Pantera and Mandatory Metallica are your 'calm down music'.

I am SO happy that I took tomorrow today off.

TO CHRISTMAS SHOP WITH MY KID.

We'll probably start around 2 pm. When I wake up.

Poor Tiff has to work today. I hope that her hearing returns quickly!

I saw TSO on the 1st of Dec, and my ears are still ringing, my pupils are in spasm from the light show, and i'm still hoarse. They are not entertainment they are ENTERTAINMENT!

Pictures. Pictures. Pictures! C'mon, now, you can't tell us you don't have a camera phone. We saw the troop with the lady fiddle-player, hot pink fiddle, as a matter of fact. Which one did you see?

Sounds great. What sounds even nicer is sleeping 'til 2. ;-) I'm going to take my young'uns out today too, but just regular shopping. They'll be thrilled (not).

Very jealous. Don't they do a great show, though? A very sensory experience, all around.
