SAVATAGE / TRANS-SIBERIAN ORCHESTRA / DORO guitarist Chris Caffery has checked in with the following TSO update:

"Hi!

We are just leaving a radio station in Albany, NY. WPYX. An awesome acoustic performance. Bob, Meeun, Alex and Myself played the music. All of the singers but Stevie were there. He went to see his new baby daughter.

Hershey was a lot of fun. The night show was an amazing crowd. So much fun to play to. The day show I was having some troubles with my in ear monitors and the follow spot people were on glue again!

The hotel we stay at there has a smell of chocolate in the air. I am not sure how they do it. There must be something in the air system. If you ever get a chance to spend a couple days in Hershey it is definitely worth the trip. Especially in the summer.

We are heding to Portsmouth, New Hampshire for two days off on the water there. I am going back to bed and then looking forward to getting some lobster later!

Tomorrow I will get any new CD orders out in the mail!

Thanks to everyone wo has come to the shows so far, we are having an amazing time out here in 2007!"

Peace!
