Thought this might be of interest here..from Blabbermouth..

Legendary vocalist Jeff Scott Soto (TALISMAN, JOURNEY, YNGWIE MALMSTEEN) will sing on the upcoming TRANS-SIBERIAN ORCHESTRA winter tour beginning November 1. Jeff will be part of the West Coast production (as TSO is split in two).

According to Jeff's official newsletter, "Jeff is thrilled to be part of this tour as it is an introduction to future appearances with TSO, including the new album 'Night Castle'."

TRANS-SIBERIAN ORCHESTRA is a rock orchestra founded in 1996 by Paul O'Neill, Robert Kinkel, and Jon Oliva (SAVATAGE). The band's musical style is often described in different terms, incorporating progressive rock, symphonic metal, and heavy metal, with influences from classical music.

OH HELL YEAH!!!!

I was just talking to my wife about getting tix for this year. We've always wanted to go, but they always play so early here, like in mid-November, and it always sneaks up on me.

This is all the extra motivation I need to make this a priority this year.

Thanks for the news Jax!!!!!!!!!!
