I AM GETTING READY FOR CHRISTMAS!!!

Let the Christmas decorating begin!!

I have told you before that I have the entire upstairs decorated for Christmas already and have 6 trees in some manner, shape and size up there.

I am off now for a week and will be starting the outside and the downstairs.

I have been making new bows to change up greenery swags in my Living Room a bit.....

And new ones for some things in the Kitchen.....


Been checking out the Dollar Store and look at these place
mats I found!!
Perfect for my Kitchen.....

And here I am in one of my Christmas sweaters getting ready to leave the house to go to the Trans Siberian Orchestra Concert on Friday!!!



If you are going to see TSO in concert this season, You will not be disappointed!! Their Winter Tour for 2011-2012 kicked off yesterday in Wilkes Barre and we were treated with a special guest appearance of Paul O'Neil, TSO's founder, composer, producer and lyricist!!

He performed on stage for several songs with the band and introduced a song that has never been performed LIVE before. He was also at the controls of the lighting and sound and lazers and then walked through the Arena signing autographs and then threw some of his famous leather jackets into the audience!!

I have gone to see TSO about 8-9 years now and it is one of our Christmas traditions so I am now ready to start decorating and playing Christmas songs and watching Christmas movies.

If you would like to see TSO in concert, please scroll down on my side bar to watch a video.....

It's that Time of Year again!!!

Trans Siberian Orchestra is a Christmas Season tradition for Joe and I.
They come to the Wachovia Arena that is right by our home every year.

This years concert is November 11 and I have my tickets already!

We will be sitting right off the stage in the lower bowl of the arena which are great seats as I seem to be able to get tickets in that section every year.

I am glad that it is fairly early since that will get me in the Spirit and I will already have started decorating the upstairs of our home.

The video below was posted on You Tube and shows the beginning of the Show from last year in our arena.
About 4 minutes in to it, you will see 3 musicians come down from the ceiling. Be sure to watch that.....

Please turn off My Playlist if you are going to watch the video.....



Part 2. If after this video is over and you would like to see more, click on Part 3 and keep doing that to see most of the concert.
I picked these videos as you can really see the light and laser show which is amazing!!



I highly recommend seeing TSO during this Christmas season if you get the chance!
It is a fantastic Rock Opera concert!!

Hugs,
Debbie

TRANS SIBERIAN ORCHESTRA!!

Please turn off my Playlist to hear the video!



This is what I will be seeing tonight at 7:30pm!!!!

Can't wait! I have only missed seeing them twice in the 9 years that they have come to my area!!

Trans Siberian Orchestra!!

Okay, if you don't know already, I am a HUGE Trans Siberian Orchestra Fan!!

I have seen the Winter Tour of TSO every year for the past 6-7 years except for last year due to a health issue. And for me, it just wasn't Christmas without seeing TSO!!

I live within walking distance of Mohegan Sun Arena in Pa. and I just bought my TSO tickets!!
Yippee!!



I will be sitting in section 103 ,row F ,right off the stage on November 14th @ 7:30 pm!!


I AM SO EXCITED!! If you haven't seen TSO perform their Winter tour with all of their Christmas songs, you do not know what you are missing. I also have a few of their videos from You Tube posted at the bottom of this blog. Please take the time to see the magic of Trans Siberian Orchestra LIVE!!!

From the MUSIC to the LASER LIGHTS, to the PYRO, it is the ultimate Christmas Rock Concert!!

I removed the Video here on this post as it took up too much room. You can view it by clicking on the link on my side bar. Please turn off my Palylist if you are going to view any of the you tube videos of TSO!


Seeing this Christmas concert before Christmas , inspires me for the entire season. I start decorating early, the beginning of November and once I see TSO, I really get into decorating and the spirit of the entire Holiday season!
