GWAR / Kingdom of Sorrow / Toxic Holocaust Only lead singer Oderus Urungus (aka Dave Brockie) has stuck around since GWAR's start 23 years ago, but the huge costumes, raunchy and obscene lyrics, and fluids spraying into the audience are sure to be on full display as the metal band makes its return to Dallas.

If you are considering, buy a ticket, it's well worth it!
I saw Emmanual Ax 15 years ago, and the only difference I saw or hear last night was his hair is now grey. Every note was crisp, singing and emotive...the best of Mozart with a pianist who loves Mozart as much as the rest of us.
And for the Mahler, at points the entire audience quit breathing to match the orchestra...powerful, brassy, explosive, everything you expect and want from Mahler.
Welcome to Dallas Maestro van Zweden !
