Ron Paul Supporters at Tran-Siberian Orchestra...

[Ginobili]

concert in San Antonio. I was wearin' me Who is this man? *Ron Paul Picture* And why is he trying to save my country? T , and I had about 9 people say "Hey, thats Ron Paul right? Awsome!" and I got at least 40 people staring at my shirt.

That said... the concert.... HOLY CRAPPIN' ROCKED. At the end (im sitting on the 2nd floor seats in the middle of the stadium), the violinist and lead guitarist are doing a solo, and im standing up waving, and I see the Lead guitarist (who I have a man-crush on >_>) stare at me, and I *ALMOST* Think he saw my shirt. He nodded at my anyways, which almost made me pass out.

i saw TSO here in denver, they have the biggest "go big or go home" attitude ever. they own that place and are amazing! everyone go see them when they come to your town, when you need to take a break from canvassing, but be sure to leave some slim jims and wear a shirt!

Excellent classical rock orchestra. my favorite genre of music by far - I'm glad to hear about supporters at TSO concerts. shows that we're not all just losers sitting in our homes posting on this forum! haha =D

When I saw them in DC I had to struggle not to shout out "BRING THEM HOME!" when they were talking about the sacrifice our troops are making and to remember them this time of year before the show started.

Saw them on Christmas Eve a few years ago at the Beacon Theater - they were sick!

Yeah, they're totally cool. I couldn't believe it when I found out a bunch of them used to be Savatage. :p

The song "Christmas Eve (Sarajevo 12/24)" (TSO's first radio hit) was originally a Savatage song from their 1995 release Dead Winter Dead. DWD was a rock opera about the Bosnian War. It was an incredible piece of music.


Savatage is one of my favorite metal bands who never made it our of the club scene. After DWD, a few members and their producer started a side project that focused on Christmas music. They re-released the same "Christmas Eve (Sarajevo 12/24)" as a TSO song and BAM! they get played all over the radio, are now filling arenas, played on the Rosie O'Donall show, and made a PBS special. I've seen Savatage many times in the clubs, and the first time TSO toured I was a mile away from the stage in a theater surrounded by posers dressed like they were at the opera. Where were these people at a few years prior?
:cool:
