Being in the game industry I was excited to see VGL and to see what format it would bring to the stage. I was amazed at the response to the music of some of the older games and how the crowd really got into it. I found myself whistling a little louder every time a new song started.
This wasn't just another concert of orchestration where you had to sit still and be quiet. In fact, we were urged to scream, yell,clap, whistle and laugh as loud as you wanted and to really have a good time!
Without giving away too much detail, there were multiple moments of game interaction with the music and special guest stars to keep the show fresh and exciting. The beauty of this show is that it evolves and changes from city to city, venue to venue and caters to the fans!
We got a few surprises and some funny moments but most of all the musicians were top notch. If you love soundtracks and the powerful feeling you get from listening to a sweeping majestic orchestration, this is a gamers dream show. Especially under the night sky at the Greek theatre.
