TSO remains true to the vision of their late founder Paul O’Neill, by being one of rock’s most generous bands. This year, the band will surpass a staggering $20 million donated to charity, a testament to their ongoing commitment to philanthropy. This generosity is fueled by their tradition of donating at least $1 from every ticket sold. That means with their 20 millionth fan attending a show on this tour, TSO will be hitting not just a concert attendance record, but a charitable milestone as well.
TSO‘s music director and lead guitarist Al Pitrelli said: “When I was working on ‘Lost Christmas Eve’ with Paul O’Neill, we talked a lot about time. He said that losing money or things wasn’t as bad as losing time. Material losses can be recovered, but you can never get time back. That’s why he always thought it was never too late to change. Never too late for forgiveness. People can make things right, forgive each other, and reconnect. ‘The Lost Christmas Eve’ is about that hope: it’s never too late for any of us.”
This year’s tour marks the grand return of “The Lost Christmas Eve” to the stage for the first time since 2013. Expect an all-new, dazzling spectacle packed with pyrotechnics, lasers, and the incredible storytelling synonymous with TSO. The celebration continues with a high-energy second set featuring the group’s greatest hits and fan favorites.
“The Lost Christmas Eve” is a product of the imagination of and based on TSO‘s double-platinum CD of the same name. The plot is one that resonates with people deeply over the holiday season. Alone on Christmas Eve, a bitter old businessman wandered New York City. Once a rising star, he’d traded love, family, and joy for a life of solitude and regret. The tragic loss of his wife hardened his heart, pushing him away from his infant son and into decades of isolation. Then, a chance encounter with a mysterious girl led him to a life-altering phone call. His son, who he abandoned decades ago, was alive, a gentle soul caring for troubled newborns in a maternity ward. After seeking him out, the son gives a silent and forgiving gaze to his long-lost father. As they sit together, comforting innocent infants, a new reunited life begins.
For fans who want to take the TSO magic at home, there’s more good news. To commemorate its 20th anniversary, Rhino will be releasing special vinyl pressings of “The Lost Christmas Eve” hitting retail stores nationwide beginning September 13. These collector’s editions come as two LP sets housed in stunning gatefold jackets with a deluxe 20-page book. Music lovers can choose from the standard black vinyl, cobalt, or crystal-clear vinyl pressings.
For the ultimate collector’s experience, fans can also head directly to the TSO store on September 13. There, they’ll find an exclusive “The Lost Christmas Eve” vinyl package. This premium package boasts a sculpted embossed sparkly-foil gatefold jacket housed in a protective slipcase.
