Gutter ballet is one of my favorite albums, solid tracks front ot back.I was a fan of theirs back then but then didnt listen to them much for a while (got realy into the thrash/speed metal scene) but then started listenin got more prog rock and metal and picked up dead winter dead, and wake of magellan and had been listening to a lot of that for a while.

This was TSO's 10th year of touring, and its amazing that they now play packed arenas when we first started going to their shows it was at the half filled beacon theater in NYC. A lot of the singers and musicians are locals to NY. One of the singers passed away a few years back and his dream was to play at MSG. Sadly he wasnt with us anymore when they did play the garden. What they did was played the song he sang with his recorded voice and a spotlight over an empty microphone. They said that was the only time they ever had played any recorded material on stage. I thought it was a very cool thing to do.
