WOW! $175 To Listen To Video Game Music???
If we were gonna throw down that much money to experience a video game in person, we'd just go see the Broadway version of The Lion King video game. And yes, The Lion King WAS a video game! Google it. LOLz.
Disney-video-game-adaptations aside, we're not 100% sure that we think it'd be worth $65 - $175 to go see a live performance of video game music, but we could be wrong.
The Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM) is def hoping we're wrong, because this weekend they'll be featuring Distant Worlds: Music from Final Fantasy, which will showcase compositions from the hit video game series performed live to "state-of-the-art HD videos and stills shown on a massive screen highlighting the games’ most memorable sequences."
We ARE aware the Final Fantasy fans can be pret-ty hardcore, so maybe this event will end up being a hit!
Will U go to BAM to experience Final Fantasy music live?

Look up Yuki Kajiura Live on youtube , Performances of “In the light of twilight under the moon” and “Vanity” both are part of an Anime/Video Game series and they are extremely successful . I would pay top dollar to see a show like that .
Yes, I actually have my ticket for Atlanta. You really don’t do any sort of research, do you? Distant Worlds has actually been quite popular all around the world, and it’s one of many Final Fantasy concerts that have happened. Just because it’s music from a video game doesn’t make any less beautiful or amazing. Oh, and $175 isn’t that much of a price tag when you take into account you also get a meet and greet with the conductor, Arnie Roth (who is a Grammy winner) and Nobuo Uematsu, the composer of the music being performed
if you played the game you would know that each game has a very detailed story line and also a classical music feeling. I love the music for this game and kingdom hearts. I actually have some of it in my ipod!!!
If I had the time yes I would ‘throw down’ that much money to go see it. The music is gorgeous and I have many orchestral variations on my ipod that I listen to on a regular basis.
Perez, the FF soundtracks are possibly one of the most beautiful creations in music. They span an epic series and the composer has millions of fans around the world. It’s orchestral and it’s amazing. Don’t knock it when you don’t even research the music behind it.
