Deck the halls with walls of bombast


Trans-Siberian Orchestra somehow takes several things we hate -- pretentious appropriation of classical music, Michael Bolton-esque vocal histrionics, Stryper-inspired haircuts, laser light shows, and Christmas -- and synthesizes the bunch into a single mass of civic-center-shaking agony.

Did we mention tickets go for $59.50 a pop? 

It almost makes one pine for Manheim Steamroller.
