Has anyone else come across this????

I thought this was so funny....

I was just at a Best Buy retail outlet, and I was looking through the CDs, and came across the classical section... I was just browsing through them when I noticed they had Symphony X as one of the classical artists...
At first I thought, maybe it was out of place...but when I looked again, there were several "Odyssey" discs along with the seperation tray card that said "Symphony X"
I didn't mean to be anal about it, but I brought it to their attention and they relocated all of the discs to the right place, but then I started to wonder, how many other Best Buys think that Symphony X is considered classical music???

I know they have a bit of a neo-classical twist to them, but to classify them as straight classical, I thought was funny... LOL!!!

Cool, maybe I'll start checking out some of the classical sections here.

Think of what an classical music lover will experience when he puts up his new cd

LMAO!!!

I'd give anything to see the look on their face when Romeo's blazing intro blasts through their speakers, instead of the normal piano and violins they're used to....LOL!!!

I would bet that it would make some new fans of SyX...especially if they listened to the Odyssey (the song) or picked up a copy of V that way. I have played Yngwie in the past to some classical fans that had never heard him and they loved his instrumental stuff and even some of his songs.

Especially if it's V with the prelude leading into Evolution and all...

Worse... in many CD stores around Brazil (Sao Paulo, for what I know), I saw Symphony X's CDs in the "Pop/rock" session!! And that got me thrilled...!!!

Maybe that explains why I've never seen their CD's in stores

So will I. Maybe that's why I can't find any of their albums around here.
