Yeah I went to the one in NY and met Nobuo. He sat a few seats away from my girlfriend and I. Awesome guy.

The tour has been happening for quite some time (there was a concert just a few nights ago), and you only post about it now?

Anyway, I definitely recommend going to this.. If you're lucky you might even get to meet Uematsu yourself.

They'll be in St. Louis the 23rd. You don't even have to be lucky to meet Uematsu, just willing to shell out for VIP tickets!

@Zimmy That's basically like doing a Star Wars festival with the picture of Jar Jar Binks as your mascot.

@Zimmy They only did 1 FF13 track when I went and people booed, the rest was Uematsu.

What? That's disrespectful, to the orchestra and to the people organising the tour. If people are going to boo just because of a game they didn't like then they don't deserve the concert at all.

For the record, I loved FFXIII's music.

@RITHsv You loved the song from Sunleth Waterscape? With perhaps the most banal lyrics of any song ever made? A song that I'm pretty sure had it been pitched for a children's show would have been turned down as being too sickly sweet.

FF13 features some okay music but also features music that actually made me turn the music off for a while.

@Zimmy You have a problem with Sunleth Waterscape?
I wish I could hate you to death.

Final Fantasy XIII has some incredible music by Masashi Hamauzu.

Don't crack.

Okay Los Angeles has the Nokia Theater and the Walt Disney Concert Hall, why do I never seem to read about dates here?

@I am a machineee The current tour of the Distant Worlds concert already played in L.A. back in September at the UCLA Royce Hall.

I was hoping we would get it again this year but so far it doesn't look like it. It was a fantastic show, Hironobu Sakaguchi was even in attendance in addition to Nobuo Uematsu.

Also I will be singing in it. I went and registered just so that I could comment here and brag about that.

"The acoustics are pretty spectacular in the space..."

Understatement of the year. Boston Symphony Hall is one of the most acoustically perfect performance halls in the country.

A bunch of friends and myself went to Sydney for Distant Worlds when it toured there. We don't live in Australia. It was worth it.

Saw this back in Baltimore and Nobuo Uematsu himself was there. It was surreal...

I hope they release a CD of one of these performances, I'd TOTALLY be on that.

Just went to the one in Kitchener Canada yesterday (concerts are the only cool things that happen in this city). Very nicely done and a good selection of music from all the games.

Just got the last ticket available (there may be some more in shopping carts). Can't believe I didn't hear about this earlier. Losing my edge...
