The Weekend Sillies and Front Row Seats!

 

And as an added treat...
On December 4th, we went to see Trans Siberian Orchestra for the 6th year in a row. We are in the fan club, so always get good seats. This past show was very special - I nabbed us front row seats!









Oh yes - it was AMAZING!

Either you missed your calling as a photographer, or they are such great showmen that you couldn't take a bad picture.

I've still never seen them!! They come here every year, but tickets are so $$ I always chicken out. haha. I'm sure it's incredible though!

Great photos!!!!

Will, actually I am a professional photographer and have been for 22 years. You're not allowed to take in SLRs to the concert, so these were all with my two Nikon Coolpix cameras.

DL, aren't they great?

Jules, they put on the best show I have ever seen.

LD, we were so excited to be that close.

Kristin, splurge - they are worth it.

Always love the LOLZ kittehs... I've never heard TSO but they don't look very orchestral! In fact I may have to check them out. I like rockers.

TSO is awesome! Even my parents seen them, in Toronto a few years back. And have to say that cat does look a lot like Dick Cheney.

Great shots! "Ain't no row, like front row" :)

I shot video with my Nikon S8100 from the front row at a couple TSO shows this Winter, plus the entire show from the 3rd row in Hartford - check it out:

Was lucky enough to catch 6 shows this Winter, have tickets for 3 shows coming up in May bringing me to 34 TSO shows! Woot! Cannot wait!

Great pics! You always crack me up with the cats.

Susan Gourley/Kelley said...

Wow, I really want to see TSO in person sometime. I love their sound.

L. Diane Wolfe said...

Stephen, my in-laws went one year, too.

Chantele, it's not Christmas without TSO.

Squinty, you are devoted.

Lolcats are so funny. Thanks. Trans Siberian Orchestra plays awesome music. They were in San Antonio, but we didn't go.

Golden Eagle said...

LOL. I love the "You Sir!" one.

It looks like it must have been a great concert!

Shannon Lawrence said...

Cool! I've never been, though they come here each year. Glad you got to go and enjoy it. Thanks for the funnies!

Lol awesome LOLCat pictures. They're hilarious.

Glad that you enjoyed the concert. :-)

Dick Cheney's cat? Giggle, giggle snort. The snow one is breaking my heart because I live 2 miles from Lake Ontario and we have no snow yet! Now I believe in global warming.

Dear Mother Nature: Please send me snow. I'm in withdrawal. My shovel is covered in spiderwebs.
