    Hmm. I should go when it hits Oakland...or just wait to see when they come around for San Francisco. I'll figure it out soon.

    I recommend them. I saw their show back when they hit Seattle for the first time, I can only imagine it's gotten better since then.

    I'd really like to see it, but I'm not sure what my money situation will be. I was going to see JoCo the night before, but I've changed that to Disturbed. :D

    Still, I'll let ya know if I can make it

    It is, IMHO, not that great a show. I enjoyed watching better musicians play on YouTube more than I enjoyed this.

    And I got my tickets for free.

    I saw it in Jersey and I thought it was great. Highly recommend it to anyone who has an appreciation for orchestra music and video games.

    It was a fun show and worth it if you are in good company! But I'm not sure if I would go back a second time even if the music changes with each show. They went a little crazy with the lightshow while in Chicago.

    I had a good time. I got to see Koji Kondo conduct and play piano. And I got to meet a bunch of cool people who worked on a bunch of cool games as they had a meet and greet after the concert. Plus the Kain cosplayer let me take a picture with the Soul Reaver. :shock:

    hm, I hadn't even thought about cosplaying. Probably won't, though.

    Damn it, now I can't decide if I should dress up or not.

    Also, does anyone know what time thing get started? I know the concert's at 8, but what about the pre-show festival? Or how late is it likely to run? Preliminary internet searches are being surprisingly unhelpful.

    According to the site the actual concert is 2.5 hours. I have no clue about the pre-post stuff

    Sweet, thanks. Now I just need to decide if I wanna go home and get a costume or not. It's Squall... the pants and jacket are decently comfortable, but those belts can be a pain in the ass to manage.

    Personally I wouldn't cosplay if I'd be sitting for that whole time. But then again, I'm not into cosplay.

    I remember when I went there were a couple guys cosplaying as tetris pieces. You'll at least be more comfortable than them

    I didn't cosplay. I should've, though. I would have had a pretty good shot in that contest.

    I went last night and had fun, generally. Except I had no idea that Tommy Tallarico was behind the show, or else I wouldn't of come. He was one of the primary reasons I can not stand G4TV (in any form). He is so incredibly full of himself. Did I mention I cannot stand him?

    Besides anytime Tallarico was on the stage, I enjoyed the music thoroughly.

    I guess that's the answer since Tommy had nothing to do with G4 outside of The Electric Playground and Judgment Day, and hasn't been seen on the station since sometime in 06-07 if I remember correctly.

    I hadn't heard about this until just now. Being I am local it would have been nice to go to it. Another funny story is that me and a friend were going to go to gameworks that night...but ended up playing games and watching anime from like 10PM-4AM.
