I finally picked up their Christmas cd's for a decent price. I see some time spent burning into a single "best of" in the near future. Any other fans out there?

I've been to a concert of theirs and it got me hooked. I have 4 of their CDs and their DVD. I love the "Music Box Blues" song.

I caught them live and fell in love with it. I haven't gotten the holiday CD yet, not enough time to look frankly.

I've only heard the "Christmas In Sarajevo" tune, Rich, but I do like it. I didn't realize the TSO was made up of some of the members of Savatage, though.

Every single year around this time, never fails, "Christmas Eve in Sarajevo" comes on the radio while my entire family is out driving around somewhere. The energy it creates is inescapable. We all do our own versions of the little girl conducting and pretty much look like a bunch of idiots having some strange fit cruising down the road. But it's so much fun...we're absolutely insane.

But yeah...that song has found its way into our hearts, especially during Christmas!

And I'm just imagining scening to it...now that would be HOT.

I never get the warm Holiday fuzzies until I hear that Christmas Eve song on the radio, or in the mall, or at someones house. I love TSO and their music.

"Christmas Eve (Sarajevo 12/24) was first released on Savatage Dead Winter Dead. It was such a huge hit that they (Jon Oliva & Paul O'Neil) wrote a Christmas CD & released it under the TSO name. Savatage is too heavy of a name to put out a Christmas CD.

After casting my vote and reading the posts, I'll be brave enough to publically state I've never heard of them.

i'll admit i'm a HUGE fan...i love the way they modernize a lot of the classical pieces (i'm a huge fan of classical music as well as the "faster/harder" rock

).

Savatage is one of my all-time favorite bands! TSO was a gimme, as far as I was concerned, when the talk started about the project on the website.
I own all the Savatage music, and the first 3 TSOs..
I have yet to see TSO live (although I've seen Savatage more times than I can count..LOL)

Try Level's link, Bear. I'm sure you've at least heard the music, even if you don't know them by name. We are simply going to have to drag you, kicking and screaming if you prefer, into the 21st Century.
