Sunday, December 16, 2007 - 5:45 PM This past Friday (December 14th) we went to see the Trans-Siberian Orchestra at the Nassau Coliseum. We had seen them before, and they always do a great show - I don't think we had ever seen so many flashing lights or lasers. They are best known for their Christmas albums so it is always great to see them during the Holiday season. The first part of the show is a Christmas story they have developed about an angel who is sent down to Earth by God to bring back something that best represents the good that has been done in honor of the birth of Jesus. It is basically a Christmas rock opera. Throughout the show they kept teasing a big surprise at the end. We assumed it was going to big some big production for a song - but boy were we wrong. At the end of the show they brought out none other than Roger Daltrey of The Who (who they called the originators of the Rock Opera) and with the band played a number of Who songs including Pinball Wizard and See Me, Feel Me. To say we (and the whole crowd) were excited would be an understatement. I took some pictures with my camera phone (hope they look ok):
