Jay Jay - Is the band planning on playing much of the Christmas stuff in Sweden - from what I recall I think you have only ever played one song live from the Christmas album outside of USA (I think it was - I saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus) - Hard Rock Hell England in November 2007 - Guess it doesn't really cut it playing Let It Snow in June/July when doing the European festivals. Guess it will be too expensive to bring the Christmas 'stage' over with you. Looking forward to December.

This is an inappropriate response to a fan who wants to pay to see you play! You should be ashamed.

Hi Blue Eyes...what do you find inappropriate? there is one show scheduled.....and it's in Sweden. All of their Christmas shows since 2006 (when the album came out) have been in the U.S....and of those....many were in NY except for a Philly show, a Baltimore show, a Jersey show and 3 awesome shows in Vegas. So all those fans in Europe & countries further had to fly across the pond to see the Christmas shows. (and a few did--Funtazia is in the UK...Aussie Mark is from Australia...there were a few others from Europe and Canada who we've met at Christmas shows) So....if you want to catch Twisted Christmas in 2013....go to Sweden! That's our option this year.

Hey Kev
It's the Gorannsson Arena in Sandviken. I actually found it on Google maps.

Okay..I'm gonna take a shot at this...Regular admission looks like 550 Kronos plus 40 service fee, which right now, is approximately 90 US Dollars or 67 Euros.
For VIP tickets...130 Euros, 176 USD...which looks like based on my almost non-existent understanding of Swedish (I just look for words that seem to compare to English etiology) you get a beverage and 1 glass of wine/alcoholic beverage with dinner buffet served from 6 pm to 8 pm and early admission maybe at 6pm? try google translator to be sure. Hey Swedish SMFs...how accurate is my interpretation?

Parkett 550:- (serviceavgift 40:-) – på golvet med fri sittning på läktaren.
VIP 1095:- (serviceavgift 45:-) – i VIP-biljetten ingår 1 fördrink bestående av 1 glas mousserande vin/alkoholfritt samt en buffé med kallskuret och tillbehör. Buffén serveras mellan kl. 18 – 21. Åldersgräns i VIP-logen är 18 år.

SMFKev - Armadillo is correct in his translation (about £56 I think I paid). Hunt around for flight deals - I used airmiles I'd been saving for ages and never had a use for and got a return flight from Edinburgh for £35. There's deals on hotels if you rake around. Can't wait!!!

I think its awesome TS plays at all anymore, But having said that I miss em, When I lives in NY state well back then you could see them alot, even catch em at the bar for a little good conversation. I miss it, but im so glad it could be was and is a part of my life. Rock and roll hall of fame? shit to me these guys define what it really should be setting standards of increadible riffs , rock moments and so on. Ill always love this band where ever I can see or listen to them. Happy holidays TS and thank you ! I hope magically I can rock with them again !
