Trans-Siberian Orchestra: The Lost Christmas Eve at Capital One Arena

Why see Trans-Siberian Orchestra: The Lost Christmas Eve?

The Lost Christmas Eve Tour

The Trans-Siberian Orchestra is hitting the road once again in 2024, bringing their electrifying holiday rock opera to audiences across North America. To mark the 20th anniversary of their fourth studio album, The Lost Christmas Eve, the progressive metal group will perform 109 shows throughout November and December. Join them for a festive celebration that spans over two decades of Christmas magic! Along with The Lost Christmas Eve, fans can expect some of the band's greatest hits, making it clear why audiences keep coming back year after year.

As in usual TSO fashion, The Lost Christmas Eve tells a story through lasers, pyrotechnics and music, it follows a bitter old man, alone on Christmas Eve, wandering the streets of New York. Once full of promise, he chose wealth and isolation after the tragic death of his wife. His decision cost him his son, who he abandoned as a baby. But on this fateful night, a chance meeting with a mysterious girl changes everything. He learns his son is alive, now working as a caregiver for newborns. In a quiet reunion, the son's forgiving gaze melts years of regret. Together, they sit, comforting the innocent, beginning a new chapter of hope and redemption.

Who are TSO?

The rock band's concerts are arguably the most visually dazzling live event you're ever likely to see, featuring giant video screens, a pyrotechnics display that rivals many cities' New Year's celebrations, and more lasers than Star Wars. Composed of four original members, the group's touring lineup's ranks are swelled with entire string sections, and dozens of extra musicians and choirs.

As for the music, TSO takes the likes of Pink Floyd and Yes as their inspiration, adding in elements of classical music, heavy metal, and just about anything else that takes their fancy. You won't find many other bands switching from a lacerating guitar solo to the heavenly voices of a children's choir without a moment's notice. The Ghosts of Christmas Eve Tour is named after the band's 1999 holiday-themed\rock opera TV movie which they'll be playing live!

WOW - first time I have seen them - wont be the last!

First off, what is the name of the blonde soloist that sang a few songs??? She Was INCREDIBLE!!! Her voice and talent just BLEW US AWAY!! But the entire show was spectacular. (the venue, Key Arena SUCKED! Pretty bad when airplane seating is roomy in comparison. I am 5'10" & 185# and was crammed in my seat) But this was much more than a show - it was and EVENT!! The effects were incredible, the music was fantastic, the talent was astounding - there is just not enough adjectives! GO see the show! I will be back next year! (and hopefully NOT at Key Arena!) ...

A different Christmas story.

I've been to so many TSO Christmas concerts that I've lost track. Needless to say, I love TSO and they are now part of my Christmas tradition. The Lost Christmas Eve story is somewhat of a bummer, and the music to this story isn't quite as moving as Christmas Eve and Other Stories(hence the 4.5 stars), but the show itself makes up for it! They blew our socks off at the Verizon Center! They are high energy and uplifting! They will always get my Christmas $$$ as they are the few that still put Christ in Christmas...you will never hear Happy Holidays at their concerts! MERRY CHRISTMAS! ... Read more

Good, but, a little off this year

Great show, as usual. This was my 6th time seeing them and I brought alot of people to see them for the 1st time. I should of brought those people last year, instead! They had lots of mechanical issues this year(the stage where the drum set sits was supposed to hover down and during "Winter's Palace", 3 of the members were supposed to come down from the ceiling). They also had a couple other things that I noticed. I also thought it was strange that they played a Savatage song besides "Christmas Eve 12-24", this year. It just felt out of place. They also skipped one of my favorites like "The Mountain". Other than that, it still was really good! I just wish they brought their A game this year when I brought other people. I am still a fan, though ... Read more
