  • December 2008 was the first edition of Christmas Metal Symphony in The Netherlands in a venue called 013 in Tilburg.
    The second edition of CHRISTMAS METAL SYMPHONY (December 20. 2009) in 013 - Tilburg is already in full progress. For those of you who don't want to miss out on this unique Christmas show, you can order your tickets as of Saturday September 5. 2009 when the official presale starts an to make shure that your Christmas will never be the same....!
    Normally, December would be the month of the year to bring you joy and prosperity but this year that will not the case for the true metalfan! Due to the cancellations of the DIO and Slayer concerts in Holland, the portion of December metal has seriously decreased. But fortunately... Christmas Metal Symphony is still firmly scheduled in the calendar of 013 in Tilburg (The Netherlands) on Sunday December 20th.
    To ease the pain of all metalfans who thought that they could have a fully booked metalmonth, 013 and the staff of Christmas Metal Symphony have decided to lower the ticketprice for CMS. Everyone who buys his / her ticket now, will benefit from a discount of € 3,50, so the new ticketprice for CMS will be € 29,00 !! (excl. servicecostings)
    Anyone who already has bought their ticket will get the first 2 drinks on the house! Just go to the special bar in he lobby and show them your ticket with the full price printed on it and you will receive 2 tokins for your first drinks. This way we will toast with all of you on the succes of CMS 2009...Europes most unique metalshow!
    Some of last years visitors told the organisers of CMS that they expected more metalclassics in the show. Since we took this very seriously, you may expect an extra high percentage of true metalclassics performed by metallegends like Jorn Lande, UDO, Mats Levén, Cristina Scabbia, Simone Simons, Charlotte Wessels, Joakim Brodén, Mark Jansen, Damian Wilson and hosted by our very own MC: George Oosthoek. Christmas Metal Symphony will give you your well deserved portion of true metal, so you will be well prepared for your mandatory Christmas diner...
    This unique show will be musically backed by the amazing 30-piece MAGNUM OPUS ROCKESTRA (conducted by Marcel Heijen) and our own CMS band: Santa's Little Helpers featuring Joost van den Broek, Koen Herfst, Jeffrey Revet, Frank Schiphorst, Johan van Stratum and Marcel Coenen. Prepare yourself for a great metalparty at 013 in Tilburg and we will take care that you will get your well deserved portion of metal before Christmas!
    Doors will open at 7 PM and the show will start at 8.30 PM. If you want more info: check out www.christmasmetalsymphony.net or buy your tickets at www.013.nl
    This video shows the edition of 2008 when Russell Allen (Symphony X) was one of the guest singers.
    The song played is "Evolution, The Grand Design" and features besides Russell Allen on Vocals:
    Koen Herfst - Drums
    Frank Schiphorst - Guitar
    Marcel Coenen - Guitar
    Joost Van Den Broek - Keyboards

    Russell Allen along with Jorn Lande are easily the greatest male voices to touch the ears of mankind!

    ONE OF THE GREATEST VOICES OF ALL TIIIIMMMEEE!!! Even withe Russel's consideration he's still the most underrated voices in metal. Probably because of the prog rock label.

    I love how SX made a ballad about the fall of Lucifer
    My favorite part at 5:09
    "So I cheated, and I've lied.....Been a victim of foolish pride
    And I've begged, and I've crawled, And I've battled and bled for it all
    So I'll savior the downfall............of paradise"

      @Cotramjoxxx 9 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    • @danielepietrini3371
      @danielepietrini3371 9 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      +Cotramjoxxx I've listened these song, obviously. But with the term "lower" I don't refer to the vocal range of Tommy, but only to the expressiveness of his voice. It's a matter of taste, of course.

    Now we're standing here
    Upon the edge of the world
    Got nothing left to give
    Two hearts apart, two worlds apart
    Now I'm lost in a haze
    And I'm stuck in this maze
    It feels like I'm the last man on earth
    It feels like I'm the last man on earth
    Feel like the last man on earth
    I'm feeling all alone
    And if your heaven is made
    For the righteous and the worry
    Then I have a dime in hell
    For the hungry and the crazies
    Now I'm lost in a haze
    And I'm stuck in this maze
    It feels like I'm the last man on earth
    It feels like I'm the last man on earth
    Feel like the last man on earth
    I'm feeling all alone
    Oohoo yeah
    Last man
    Now this nobody else baby
    Last man
    Nobody else the me
    Last man🥀🥀🥀

    Russell Allen & Jorn fucking Lande are the greatest singers of Rock/Hard Rock/Heavy Metal

  • @nengstro
    @nengstro 9 ปีที่แล้ว +38

    Russell Allen is probably one of the most underrated singers out there.... He should loose weight and replace the LeBoef guy in Dream Theater...

    • @Diamedley
      @Diamedley 9 ปีที่แล้ว +20

      nengstro What does his weight have to do with his singing? Also, the "guy" from Dream Theater has a name. James Labrie, not Leboef.

    • @kramnic8240
      @kramnic8240 9 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Dennis Møller Laboeuf. ROTFL But yeah Allen > LaBrie, in both tone, skills, presence and not talking/acting like a total dick.

    • @adamlewandoski7144
      @adamlewandoski7144 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      And what the fuck does his weight have to do with his singing ability. I am from around the same area the Russel is from and know many musicians some I am sure you have heard of and some a bit more obscure as I was heavily involved in the industry about 20 years back, working in a popular to the area recording studio as an assistant engineer as well as a session guitar and drum player if duty called, as well as background vocals. I guess going to a concert and witnessing amazing talent in front of you is not what it is about, no you have to have a person that looks like they are gender confused so you can stand there and stare while gyrating to make your little appendage rub against the socks you stuffed your spandex with all the while dreaming of ravaging the skinny little singer before you. I had the privilege of meeting Russel a few years back and I can tell you he is a down to earth great dude, totally missing the "rock star" attitude, also he is a tall guy that can absolutely handle himself. I would much rather see a concert with Russel onstage eating a meatball parmigiana when the guitar solo starts and when done calling up a spandex wearing chicken shit tough guy and pound on him for a bit then turn around and finish the set enjoying an espresso and a cannoli then a concert with a skinny assed feminine guy dancing around maybe with some ability but that look, who cares. The individuals that truly appreciate the art of music, the ones that wait to hear that certain guitar part, the ones that can truly feel the emotion of the lyrics as the singer is pouring his heart out, the way the drums thunder out a heavy percussive pattern that touches your inner emotions so intense it is sometimes like an experience that cannot be described, that is me as crazy as it sound to some. I am not alone in these feelings as many in my close circle of friends as well as people I have met while working in the industry and especially folks I have met while attending countless concerts and local shows have often spoke of this emotion when certain songs are played especially live. I used to think it was a musician thing but I was proven wrong many times and to us that share the same feeling of enjoyment and passion for the music don't care what the musicians look like we care about the energy, feeling and emotion that the song projects or makes us feel when it is so amazingly executed. many thanks for reading, stay true to the amazing art of true music.

    In the cold misty morning
    Gleaming rays awake the dawn
    Here I stand, a stranger in this land
    Does your conscience betray you?
    Falling from grace, feel the sun on my face
    Does desire still hold true?
    Mystified by her beauty, does the hunter pity his prey?
    Under starless skies all love must die
    And fade away
    Take my hand, divine or damned, make a stand
    Seize the day
    Yours or mine, damned or divine
    Draw the line, come what may
    Looking down from ethereal skies
    Silent crystalline tears I cry
    For all must say their last goodbye, to paradise
    My yearning been silenced
    By angelic skin of white
    Love conquers all, though heavens fall
    This fateful night
    Yours or mine, damned or divine
    Draw the line, serpentine
    Love is a tragedy
    All that I have, and all that I'll ever need
    Is right here inside
    Let the winds of freedom be my guide
    Looking down from ethereal skies
    Silent crystalline tears I cry
    For all must say their last goodbye to paradise
    (Say goodbye, goodbye)
    So I've cheated and I've lied
    Been the victim of a foolish pride
    And I've begged and I've crawled
    And I've battled and bled for it all
    So I'll save up the downfall of paradise
    Looking down from ethereal skies
    Silent crystalline tears I cry
    For all will say their last goodbye, to paradise
    Looking down from ethereal skies (looking down from ethereal skies)
    Silent crystalline tears I cry (oh, I cry)
    For all will say their last goodbye to paradise (all will say their last goodbye)
    Looking down from ethereal skies (looking down)
    Silent crystalline tears I cry (crystalline tears I cry)
    For all will say their last goodbye to paradise
