Went to the 3:00 show today (they're playing currently as well) at Nationwide and all I can say is WOW! These guys absolutely kill it every time they swing through town! This is my 3rd time seeing them, the 1st time we've heard an extended set of material from Nightcastle and I have to say it kicked ass! Anybody else attend or attending tonight's show?

For the first time the West coast must have had him on the keyboard. The East coast only had original members on lead guitar and drums this year. In the past they have had original lead, electric, drums, and keyboard.

Had great seats this year, center floor row R. Missed the chick violinist from last year and the blonde chick that did the "dual with the guitars" just didn't have the pipes of the Asian girl that has done it in the past. Also wasn't a fan of the medley from the upcoming rock ballet(couldn't understand her).

One of the lower rated of the shows I have seen but still one of the best overall concerts!

Smith and Wolensky afterwards was great too!

I've seen them twice in the last 3 years. Once was at Nationwide and the other was at the Palace at Auburn Hills. They always put on a great show, but both were their Christmas shows. Has anyone ever seen their shows during other years? What do they play, and is it as good?

Their shows have always been Christmas shows. This past year was the first time they did a spring tour. It was the Beethoven's Last Night cd in it's entirety. The venues were much smaller but the show was equally awesome. We saw them at EJ Thomas Hall in February.
