Quick Raleigh review:

- I loved Welcome to the Show as an opener. Zack needs to sing more songs though.
- Not a fan of the light balls or moving screens. Just distractions.
- Criss Oliva's white guitar is very prominent on most of their merchandise but they don't show it on the projections anymore. They also did not do the first part of The Mountain which I always thought of as a tribute to him.
- Savatage and Jon Oliva were mentioned during the introductions. Sometimes they seem like "bad words" so it was lovely to get a nod.
- "A Little too Far" was pretty good and the crowd really seemed to enjoy it.
- Oh Holy Night is usually the highlight for me but it was nothing special this round.
- T-shirts were $40, pretty typical concert prices.
- The spinning cube at the back of the floor was weak compared to the Tesla ball. I was expecting it to do more.
- Caffery did not run to the back of the arena for the final song like he usually does.
- Great use of lifts throughout the show.
- The sound is just TOO low and there is no punch at all. I had the same complaint when I last saw them 2 years ago. Is this just a Raleigh thing?
- All in all an entertaining show but it all feels so Disnified and corporate. I am starving for new material and really just want a 10 hour Savatage show.
- I kept reading about all these projects Paul was working on. Where are they? Nobody is getting any younger. I don't know who is in charge of bringing them to life but Jon Oliva is a mess and I am not sure if he has the discipline to get things done. Who is steering the ship?
- The Christmas thing has become a tradition but they always leave me wanting more...

Signed,

A spoiled fan
