A while ago I found this website.

Video Games Live™ is an immersive concert event featuring music from the most popular video games of all time. Top orchestras & choirs perform along with exclusive video footage and music arrangements, synchronized lighting, solo performers, electronic percussionists, live action and unique interactive segments to create an explosive entertainment experience!

This is a concert event put on by the video game industry to help encourage and support the culture and art that video games have become. Video Games Live™ bridges a gap for entertainment by exposing new generations of music lovers and fans to the symphonic orchestral experience while also providing a completely new and unique experience for families and/or non-gamers.

Video game music they play:

Mario™, Zelda®, Halo®, Metal Gear Solid®, Warcraft®, Myst®, Kingdom Hearts®, Castlevania®, Medal of Honor™, Sonic™, Final Fantasy®, Tron, Tomb Raider®, Advent Rising, Headhunter, Beyond Good & Evil™, Tom Clancy medley (Splinter Cell®, Ghost Recon™, Rainbow Six®), EverQuest® II and a and a special retro Classic Arcade Medley featuring over 20+ games from Pong® to Donkey Kong® including such classics as Dragon's Lair, Tetris, Frogger, Gauntlet, Space Invaders, Outrun & Robotron.

Anyone interested in this? I think I'll go once tickets are available near me. It seems many people enjoyed the experience of the concert including non-gamers as well.

I think this is going stupidly far. A live concert for game music? Dear god.
I'm always amazed that people listen to game music at all to be honest.

Who the fuck would pay money to go see some random choir sing the Tetris theme?

This is rediculous...

i went to one of these actually. not this specific one, the one i went to was called Play! A Video Game Symphony. It was
totally awesome. One Winged Angel live was amazing. Even cooler was when i started school and me and my friend were talking about in in choir, and our choir teacher told us she was in the choir for that concert

This is fanboyism gone wrong.

I personally think it's awsome that they are finally putting some songs from games into a concert.

I wish I could've gone to this.

Me too but my mom would probably say no we would have something planned.
