|Video Games Live|
Yesterday on the Friday of 20th June 2009. I came back from the best concert ever, Video Games Live. For the other concerts i've been too it's just 1 band doing all their songs but this really takes me back to like when i was a little boy and played Mario, Zelda, CastleVania, Donkey Kong. All those were right there, seriously the NUS symphony orchestra was amazing! Can my band do that? Or choir singing One-Winged Angel? I hope they can cause i would pay to go and watch that concert again. Here's a list of what games they performed (alphabetical not in appearence) Oh they say they never perform the same show twice!
GAMES THEY PERFORMED:
CastleVania (Finale, also known as castlevania rock)
Chrono Chross & Chrono Trigger (One of the best ever i've heard)
Final Fantasy (Segments)
Halo (Segments)
Kingdom Hearts (My ultimate favourite I swear, video above tagboard)The Legend of Zelda (Not half bad)
Metal Gear Solid (Segments with the Original Metal Gear Solid composer coming up to play his saxophone *WORLD PREMIER*)
Metroid (2nd most requested song that they haven't played)
Sonic the Hedgehog (Dammit that was awesome)
Super Mario (Segments, ok do you know wtf and how nostalgic this was!?)
Tron (Didn't like it, for me)
Blizzard: World of Warcraft (Very Good)
Diablo III (THAT'S RIGHT DIABLO III!!!!)
Arcade Medly of different games such as Pong, Donkey Kong and among others
There was also this blindfold pianist called Martin Leung he performed the following songs
10 Final Fantasy Pieces
Super Mario Bros
Tetris (With the orchestra)
Castlevania (with orchestra)
Sonic The Hedgehog
Most videos can be found on youtube but give them a chance, they were recorded by phone/camera. Now my only regret was that I didn't being my phone or camera *cries* but if they come next year, you can hell bet I'll be there. Oh and for those Aerosmith friends, the co-creator of Video Games Live, Tommy Tallarico, is the cousion of Steven Tyler, lead singer of Aerosmith so yeah, some trivia. Anyway I gotta go spend my days outside *stares* ugh... i wanna go for the concert a second time round, but with friends!
I'm Also gonna host a outing to watch the movie Up, anyone wanna tag along just tag me on the tagboard... (too many tags)
