Believe and Prelude to Madness were dedicated to Criss Oliva, Without him TSO would have never been... and there are very few TSO fans that even realize this.
That's probably true. Keep in mind though that TSO was birthed out of a failed attempt by Savatage to release a Christmas album that didn't go over well with their fans.
LOL! that would be great... most of those TSO fans would fall on their asses. I'm thinking they might incorporate more Sava stuff in the spring tour.
There was no fire because the pyro regulations are set by the fire marshall/venue in each city. Albany is very strict and won't allow pyro within a certain distance from the audience
Criss Olivia was the nicest guy you could ever meet, I had been lucky enough to work with savatage many many times during the 80s and they all were the nicest guys around . Jon and Criss woudl sit and visit with fans and crew constantly. Criss you will be missed alwyas ,

hey in spring tour , all TSO is going to play together or only east tour?
israelitaman 2 years ago
I'm assuming the original TSO will be on the Spring tour.
Chris and Al on guitar
Johnny on bass
Jeff on drums
Bob on keys
Then I hope they get the singers Beethoven cd.
No clue who will do the narration.
I hope that Jon Oliva is there. That would make my year!!!
Jon = God

Al was on the spring tour. And there was no East/West Coast. Just TSO. And TSO is and always will be Al, Chris, Johnny, and Jeff.

Do you you even know who Savatage are?
It's Criss not Chris..
And this was the first year TSO played Prelude to Madness... and the first year they have ever made a dedication to Criss Oliva.
