" Trans Siberian orchestra. Leo we have moved we have a Paul -- on occasionally. The trans Siberian orchestra's going on the road again they're going to be in from Boston at the -- sent -- on it. Well first. -- Paul welcome back and how we car show and at Telus Telus torture row what's your what's your show where is this time."

" Press for great great keyboard how we ended some. Well it's you know. Going out for the first time in spring and it's. Detour is gonna be Beethoven's last night they in its entirety complete that the narrator in between. -- using the poultry that is going to be on the re release and go on the second half's going to be from Mike -- And it's you know we're also gonna try to make an effort to long. Get to a lot of the cities that we have been able to go to the last five years is because some. Yelled -- tours have gotten so big you know at thirty -- troublesome part for effect -- buses that."

" Right you've been more at the central might think around and now Massachusetts and you have been embossed on."

" Yes yes basically own. Because it's mainly you know the ability to -- his. You know much weight as possible from the trust thing and the fact we need stage support -- of the arena. And bomb and also because. -- a -- orchestra basically uses -- I think I'm not exaggerate when -- more pyro of that all the other rock -- in the world by the year. And actually it was funny because some. We're doing multiple things should not -- my -- well can -- last October sort of gold and platinum glance the but we also decided you know at this spring's here and that would allow pop the ponds and -- into what we needed Asia and Europe. And you know that a lot of journalists you know pretty much from every country you're over last year to load it in America. And I'm actually sitting here like -- foot -- magazine sent off. All the reviews are great but at some of them pretty funny this red one yesterday and this is quote for quote the title. And not pyro the barbecue and retired school of Wales. Ahead of their goes thought you know lasers. That buried closer I was the first time on that he could get -- the albums."

" heavy snow was snow machines in the so show."

" Only for one reason on because. They have this spring type of laser yeah home which is like you know by current state court -- regulators. On. And I don't know the bad hasn't this is only kind of an in the world I couple had. And that bad I mean when the late then we have stated support into the arena. And when the waste is going to the house. But it goes -- snowflake. It's just it has -- so realistic. You know look -- is very ethereal and there's just nothing else like that. It's some not by itself is I probably would never use it on laser sidewalk. But when he deleted it actually goes to the snowflake it's it's magical and -- of cellulose is may not know this but -- or something in the chair elect of the smoke or something that affects as few places it needs -- to reflect off of."

" Really I didn't know that oh yeah. Actually -- would seem to when he you know science fiction movies at the blazers you know word you know they showed up right before they demolish the incoming UFO."

" Now I don't -- actually truly funny because in -- for the first aliens they've figured it. The in the movie it didn't look futuristic enough so they don't. Colbert who would borrowed their laser system. We -- state of the art back then and this I didn't notice of the super level. Or if they can't expect that I love that stuff I mean. I mean yeah that'll always Pioneer's -- When you look at precedent orchestra you know and that let you record you know first -- you know -- watch structural support -- Brothers. I said you know okay but only. Specifically different like okay resentment -- progressive rock band but -- hard rock band. With a -- symphony at 24 lead singers and I wanna pull from every red rock oral B -- B world that it theatrical world classical world. And you know the band -- says. I'm up he'll sit 55 but bomb. And we have been members reported 93 which tried it basic but it's a couple Searle and that. And on it every year we get new members song you know last year -- just -- Soto who placed -- carried -- dust off. And you know it brings a lot of depth and especially this store because the first step is they -- was last night. And done. Bob Evans who's got a three octave range -- Beethoven yeah. -- just -- Soto you know please let -- stop police and this is just like a battle. Of heavyweights you know -- late as -- glad each other and don't. The you know has coupons plot twist to it and --"

" Are you want toward our view or you just starting up."

" Bomb we are basically in full production rehearsal on the first show it because like a week away. And it's. If I controlled chaos that you know somehow just comes together the last second. And of but you know last year we were really scared -- you know how -- just because the economy yet. It and everything else but on. You know William -- like you wanna cut back up right now we have to go out -- like a show like no single. And or well the."

" what do you want on the Robles this last weekend around here because you know what's kind of wet weekend if you as you may have robbed. Yeah we we noticed batters but we're also thankful we've missed liked. It's very fortunate that -- missile snowstorms in the mid Atlantic states do whatever earlier."

" It was like in the rock artists have been very good to look at that and eleven years we've never cancel the show and done. The closest she ever came as -- five years ago. We try to get to the Rocky Mountains sent. Thank god one -- is that they taught at the end. Yeah should have been an eight hour drive and when I heard about the -- what -- call -- should just -- the -- will make it -- to -- or later. Except Paul I don't care -- get Huskies. Is no way I'm canceling this show. And it did basic and you know 48 hours that eight hour drive but he made it and don't. The bend. Its reality show is also we're also owners -- appreciable directions to see Iran. I mean. Last year -- seven's -- processed because you're Italian and Mexican prodigy it has. Stage support sensitive -- you know. -- part of the whole nine yards and I think what a couple of can help improve it's like pull this popular to do and I said. What we -- definitely support of the type music department of the type of music beyond."

" How many go -- girls that's when I'm interest of the -- you know girls sparked by Beethoven didn't have a legal gore girls on his last night."

" Nobody really does -- he has. Twelve. Drop -- vocalist that are we called triple threats because. They have got vocal. Aren't there unbelievably great singers are unbelievably great dancers step staggering response stage. And -- also everyone it was a great actress which you know comes in really handy to the worst believable."

" Wear miniskirts or micro miniskirts."

" They basically. They wear dresses that on. You know. They look great and social good professional actors and but the I think what typically put force I think sixty CEO worst percent last year and -- The review a little bit confusing because you know sold out everything is great but. Maybe the show was so perfect. Because there's one point the second half way around. We -- critical winter night where frightened little song I go to bomb. Mozart's magic flute upper -- You know -- in the opera world. That song sort of particular source one of the most difficult swaps a form. So I'm like okay not only do we have to do it on. I'm gonna start with all of the female singer in the on the stage at the back of the -- behind the town board shall start there. Get those money notes and then epic -- wrong Leo like all the corporate. Still across the arena and end up on the main stage. And don't. The review from the but I think is called telegraph argues that actually said I don't understand how you know some people they end up Massachusetts bomb. Are willing to pay money to see you know pretty girl -- address let's think assault she's not what six. And -- We don't do that and itself."

" the telegram is owned by the New York Times so occasionally they have problems. And Jayson Blair wrote the review but they admitted that. Instead the crop up with."

" I can I just did not understand because it really is difficult to do but I mean. We basic you know since the dance started you know we pretty much heavier we had about one -- two new members yet but we additional 2000. And that I usually see that and and that usually two or making it to the band and but every year we tried a bar and just take it to another level. And its -- And about five years ago I mean post or. And begin October last year -- put out -- official on numbers you know that what the bill yeah or what Torre. Interest -- orchestra. Was number five for the most tickets sold and we -- well what about it now. Money gross but that's because -- since they want. We agonized to a keep the tickets down -- The basically been between twenty and fifty dollars -- last year that we went 25 to sixty dollars. And which basic noble circle premium seats. And political circles actually stored for good reason by the voters because some. Others to get the money both the best 2000 -- tend -- you know. For either 25% of forgotten by the -- and you know slowly started this thing 90% of that money goes to -- But the problem with that is it basically means that -- corporation. Or ultra rich you cannot afford you know the best seats and so from day one we kind of help outline and don't. Then last year the voters elect Paul you've really got to stop this you know or you're doing is you know on the -- people are still in the band and I said. I understand your frustration. But. The problem is that I do which you say the number one like I said. I liked the fact I would -- so goes on sale despite the fact of the biggest truck production ever mounted -- far away that. The -- delivers a newspaper and the kids too long. Or warm bucket. Has an equal chance of getting the best seats and yes I'm aware that Warren Buffett can buy it because it lives the paper Switzerland in exchange for his face. But it Beckett wants those tickets there hit. And they're. They select all. It's not -- at Tokyo to try another analogy that we've tracked the -- just not a rock band they believe -- wheat farmers can't. And we have a problem locust and the 25 to 40% of the wheat crop every year. And you're like okay I've got a solution. We're gonna crop dust with a pulse okay yup you're right the grasshopper shall the -- what we could --"

" And don't -- me -- a one call I know you gotta run here Paul but I do what they do we got a guy wants to talk to be sure and again I'll put this we're talking Apollo Neil from the trans Siberian orchestra they're gonna be at -- wing center on April 1. And that's the that's the closest they're going to be in the with their new show. Jim your next with how we guard Paul O'Neill from the transcend Varian orchestra go ahead Paul --"

" All it between our talked you have standard jurors sent even before yesterday it. All the mounting at all Walter wow -- to -- because it's still on the -- out. But I NN -- they know exactly. This state -- a little story real quick but I've brought my -- your last Christmas show here in Manchester, New Hampshire. I'm up in Maine so it took me about five hours to get there my son complained the entire way about where we go and what are we gonna get there all that stuff and and now we will be glad that show and he just sat there completely and utterly -- Bryant the all time he wouldn't let me play anything but you're gonna do music on the way home and overstepped. But the chart and pretty much treat this you just please tell your son. They're tasty music is now exceeded only by his taste in Paris could pick wisely on the way down. I appreciate that but I mean it is definitely you secure golden do you want your -- the biggest bands that it but -- A diplomatic quick question I don't mind I'm gonna -- wondered how much how much show you how much involvement is John you know leave which you guys anymore and and a few ever appeared all the guys."

" Actually John is about. Hundred getaway from the right now are and how it John great I loved John on you know obviously one of most talented musician I've ever met. And you know what can -- college. We just magical just because -- you know a lot of singers always help -- they have three -- range. John dogs yes they have it all larger want. And -- You know -- are still right -- that a fact dom. We're taking cover about late to Broadway. And about the next two years so and higher you know. -- the policy finishing touches on that. -- moral cookies was -- which is a musical about Bolshevik revolution. Which was originally was -- office's first album but. Beat up post ultimately get on former first we're actually in the city of finishing out as we speak. And -- I mean Beethoven's last night. You know where -- He actually -- to -- to stop police. I put it is brilliant just because some. You know so many other specific but it yet done that this operation her up with John. He you know had this you know people never. We deal itself in the beginning beginning it's always adopted the you can hide behind -- patriotism or religion or tightness or something. And it's not pretty get closely it's not what's -- that he realized what it is."

" And it was a day to be talking about smell people's breath the buoyancy Patrick they have had enough. Especially around your boss that."
