			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I had the pleasure Sunday of going to see a Trans-Siberian Orchestra concert in Nashville, TN. This was my first TSO show, and I found the band to be absolutely amazing. I would venture to say that Al Pitrelli (lead guitar) impressed me more than Angus Young of AC/DC fame did when I saw them. Alison Zlotow also had incredible stage presence for an electric violinist.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/dillona/3128530092/in/photostream"><img class="alignright" title="Trans-Siberian Orchestra Lighting" src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3119/3128530092_78399ccc8b.jpg" alt="" width="270" height="203" /></a><br />
The lighting was absolutely breathtaking. I figured I would never see another light show as elaborate or perfectly synchronized as Nine Inch Nails. I was pleasantly surprised.<br />
My seat wasn&#8217;t what I usually hope for when I go to a concert. I typically like to be within the first 15 rows by the stage. I got my tickets the day of the show, and I figured as long as I was on the floor it wouldn&#8217;t be too bad. This turned out to be a blessing, I believe, because being father back gave me a better view of the lighting and of the overall stage.</p>
<p>They had an elaborate pyrotechnic display featuring fire both on the stage and on the floor behind the audience. Lasers were also featured, with green light spanning across the arena in a style that reminded me of Coldplay.</p>
<p>I hope to see them again in the future, and you are doing yourself a great disservice if you don&#8217;t at least check out their CDs. <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002ZDVGS?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=baywebdes-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=B0002ZDVGS">The Lost Christmas Eve</a> is my favorite.</p>
