The history behind the magic and wonderment of TSO makes being a part of the show as a fan even more exciting. Every song has a purpose for its existence but the beauty of music is being able to see how that audience member reacts to the song that you wrote must be a lyrist’s high. Thank you for sharing with all of us your passion for those that are (whether they are here on Earth physically or spiritually) a part of the TSO family. Awesome interview!

There's no crying in Heavy Metal. Chris had me teary eyed missing my sister. The 2021 tour was the first time I've seen TSO since she passed. Last time I saw them live with her was 2017. We watched the live stream concert in 2020 the day she met my girlfriend who is a music teacher. Wizards of Winter was on and she asked my girlfriend if she could teach her piano. Sadly she was gone four weeks later.

Such a great interview..so emotional and kind!

[@tritontransport]

19:40 I can vouch for this! I’ve been to many first shows of the tour and the last show on the tour in the same year and you can’t tell any difference 👍. Class acts and nothing but the best from start to finish

[@dillonohlemiller9027]

I knew these guys worked hard, but their rehearsal process is genius

[@skycannamela2768]

I went to the show almost every year

[@thesoultransferprotocol721]

Seeing TSO in Sacramento tomorrow night!!! This will be EPIC!!!!!

[@johntiggleman4686]

About 14 years ago, I mentioned to my son-in-law's father that my family was going to see the Trans Siberian Orchestra, and that he should go. Well, he and a buddy went to the evening show...he was expecting an orchestra, not a rock band! He had never heard of TSO before. Not been to a show since. His loss. ;)

We cannot wait to see TSO in Nashville Dec 1! Would not be Christmas without TSO.

When the TSO comes to T oronto, the 7 musicians that come in to form the 8 person orchestra are from the Toronto Symphony Orchestra; that's right, The TSO. LOL It's kismet!!

Great interview. I love TSO and have seen them many times at the Izod Center and the Prudential Center. They always put on a phenomenal show and never disappoint. I had a front row seat once in Newark and was wearing a Rush t-shirt. It caught someone's attention in the band, maybe Chris, Joel, or David Z. (RIP), that I was stopped by a crew member afterwards who said someone in the band loved my t-shirt and I was given a TSO pick. That was really cool. BTW, here is the video of Chris playing to Daryl's voice at MSG he talked about. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eZKXeH9pj550b6c

[@viewfromthehighchair9391]

I love TSO but they have skipped Toronto a number of times in the last 10 years which is incredibly disappointing to me because I love the show. The way I've put it in the past is, "It is the single best thing I've ever seen in my life. I love people that like to tap a finishing nail in with a 2 tonne wrecking ball." It just suits my personality. TeeHee "Anything worth doing is worth doing to excess." (don't know who said this originally) I hope TSO comes back this year. If so, I'll be there!!

[@KREW-LAND]

can you make public your interview with krewella

[@rogerjones6033]

Why did they eliminate or blip out the 2 drummers at 5:00 when Chris was counting band members?
