Further proving that heavy metal is just classical with different instruments, we have Russian Guess The State! hard rockers TSO doing The Marriage Of Figaro.
Um...they're not Russian (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transiberian_Orchestra).
Also, they SWEAR they have a new album coming out with O Fortuna on it. I'll be upset if they don't finally release it - they did O Fortuna when I saw them 4 years ago, and it was FANTASTIC!
Jon Oliva, eh? I saw Jon Oliva's Pain at the Karmøygeddon metal festival a few months ago. They were really good. The guy had a bad knee and was walking with a crutch (I reckon morbid obesity is doing his joints in), but he still had this awesome stage presence. He just seemed wonderfully charismatic and happy to be there.
