Tommy Tallarico is really short in person.
Alright, I'm terrible at writing reviews, but I just got back from this and I'd at least like to say some stuff. Plus I told Tommy I would. I don't even know where to start. The whole thing was pretty damn awesome. And being in the second row was great, other than that light on the right side. We tried to get him to pick a friend of mine to do the Space Invaders thing, but Tommy was too easily swayed by cleavage. And of course that guy who yelled to kill all the people who think video games promote violence was epic lulz.
Let's see... The classics medley in the beginning was pretty cool. Certainly wasn't expecting anything like Dragon's Lair. The pianist was absolutely amazing. It's mind-boggling that anyone can move that fast and still hit the right keys. Considering how much Crash talks about it whenever it comes up, it was pretty cool when they started playing Baba Yetu. The Halo and Castlevania parts were pretty epic. As far as the ending, while I don't have anything against One Winged Angel, especially the guitar version, I would have liked to see something like Dancing Mad.
I ended up buying two copies of the Video Games Live Volume One cd, so hopefully my friend will pay me back for that soon. And a Video Games Live hat. Mostly because I'm still pissed that they were out of Rock Band hats way back when they had that thing at Best Buy. It took everything I had to keep myself from spending even more money on the Earthworm Jim cd (sorry Infernal). Ended up getting them to sign the back cover of the cd. I told Tommy that they should put in some Megaman and Earthbound music. I meant to also say something about Ace Combat. My friend said they should do Devil May Cry, and was promptly ignored for more discussion of Megaman (he says they're working on 2 and 3).
All in all it was a lot of fun and it was completely worth it to see. Also that pong shirt (that was me that said something) and the Spiderman guitar were pretty ballin.
On a side note, my internet has been shit lately, so I haven't really been able to be around. Not that any of you assholes care. Now I'm going to copypasta this into the VGL thread.
