Seniors,have you ever gone to see the Trans-Siberian Orchestra?

I ordered tickets online after seeing an ad on TV that they were going to be in Portland, Oregon. I have never been to an orchestra before, so is it something we dress up for? I know I sound like a country hick, and I am. I thought it was going to be easy listening music, then my granddaughter told me I could watch them online on youtube. Hmmm, not easy listening. But loud! Have you seen them and what do you think? Thanks in advance

Update:

Sorry for any thumbs down. I don't give them to anyone who takes the time to answer my questions. I appreciate all answers.

    I've only seen them on youtube Ladyb and yes they make a nice sound. I would dress casually and make the most of a good night out.

    Have fun.

    Oh I would love to go see them. They are great. Especially at Christmas time. You don't have to dress up.

    I like them a lot. Most of what I've heard is great Christmas music.

    They are a lot like the Mannheim Steamrollers.

    I've not seen them in concert - just on Youtube.

    I do believe if I were able - i would enjoy seeing them in concert - during the Holidays.

    Dress warm and for comfort.

    My son loves them and thought my husband would even though he's a classical music buff. He gave us a cd which my husband plays all year long (It's Christmas music).

    Yes, they are loud. There is something about their music that we like very much. My husband calls it Heavy Metal Classical. I think his description is over-kill. If we had tickets, we'd go.

  • OH LUCKY YOU!!

    I have always wanted to see them but have their CD's

    No you don't have to dress up at all. they are a great bunch of people!

    They had a concert not so long ago about a 100 miles from me but there was no way I could go see them since the weather was bad back then..

    I hope you can take picture or video tape them!! they are great!! and have fun!!

    I have never seen them perform live but I love their music.

    I do not think they are from Siberia and not an Orchestra. I had heard the name but I think they are a rock & roll band.

    BTW - I was in Vladivostok in late April and walked inside the train terminal for the TransSiberian Railroad. A first for me. I was on a North Pacific crossing cruise.
