    I have shit tier luck w/ women. I can't even make this shit up
    Was a cute girl in my row tonight. Was walking down to find my seat and some guy left his cup in the middle of the walkway and I kicked it on accident and it spilled all over her @_@

    She didn't even respond to my apology. Had a tank top on under my button up and I took off my button up so she could have something to wipe herself dry and nope totally ignored

    lol my "look" was so diff tonight. I wore the only pair of long pants i own and a button up shirt (which I also never wear). I wore my glasses (which I don't usually wear, but I didn't want to sacrifice vision tonight).

    My friends that I know who saw me there were all like "wtf"

    I'm actually really shy, believe it or not. But now I feel bad because I need to get out of my shell more.

    If you really want to know... :^)

    EDIT: Also, wow... BG Bucket really does handle that image in an odd way. I tried rotating it 90 degrees and then uploading to my bucket (don't worry, I deleted it after testing) and the thumbnail view showed properly but if you expanded it the image was flipped 180 degrees instead of 90.

    Went to the L.A. concert last June in the Microsoft Theater. Hitoshi Sakimoto* attended instead of Uematsu; he looked really happy to be there.
    Oh and our program was pretty fucking insane:

    “Prelude” (Final Fantasy Series)
    “Victory Fanfare (Extended)” (Final Fantasy Series)
    “Liberi Fatali” (Final Fantasy VIII)
    “Character Theme Medley (Terra/Kefka/Celes/Locke)” (Final Fantasy VI)
    “The Dalmasca Estersand” (Final Fantasy XII) *
    “Torn from the Heavens” (Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn)
    “Balamb Garden” (Final Fantasy VIII)
    “Swing de Chocobo” (Final Fantasy Series)
    “Answers,” featuring Susan Calloway (Final Fantasy XIV)

    –Intermission-

    “JENOVA Absolute” (Final Fantasy VII)
    “Light Eternal” (Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII)
    “Eyes On Me” featuring Susan Calloway (Final Fantasy VIII)
    “You’re Not Alone” (Final Fantasy IX)
    “To Zanarkand” (Final Fantasy X)
    “Final Fantasy I – XIII Battle Medley” (Final Fantasy Series)

    Which was a 15 minute suite of:

    “Prelude” (Final Fantasy Series)
    “Battle Scene” (Final Fantasy)
    “Battle Scene 1” (Final Fantasy II)
    “Battle 2” (Final Fantasy III)
    “Battle 2” (Final Fantasy IV)
    “The Last Battle” (Final Fantasy V)
    “Decisive Battle” (Final Fantasy VI)
    “Fighting” (Final Fantasy VII)
    “Force Your Way” (Final Fantasy VIII)
    “Battle” (Final Fantasy IX)
    “Otherworld” (Final Fantasy X)
    “Awakening” (Final Fantasy XI)
    “Boss Battle” (Final Fantasy XII) *
    “Blinded By Light” (Final Fantasy XIII)
    “Prelude” (Final Fantasy Series)

    Then they closed with:
    “Main Theme” (Final Fantasy Series)

    And did the usual...
    -Encore-
    “One-Winged Angel” (Final Fantasy VII)

    The high point was definitely the world premiere of the JENOVA Absolute arrangement. Was transcendent shit:


    You should definitely check out the battle medley too. Hope Arnie makes your upcoming programs like this.

    Man, I wish I had seen this topic sooner. I wanted to go to this as I live in Orlando but the wife couldn't get it off work. Decided I didn't want to drive down to it and go to it alone.

    I went to the Los Angeles 2011 show @ UCLA, a 2 night engagement and went to both. Night 1 had Dancing Mad blasting with a pipe organ and choir. I will never forget that. Though night 2 OWA didn't have the choir and everyone sang along XD

    I think they were just premiering Battle on the Bridge and Answers arrangements which were both pretty sweet.

    Ugh I still need to pick up Distant Worlds vol 3 on CD.

    I was attending UCLA when they did those back-to-back shows in Royce Hall. Didn't find out about it until the day before the first evening and had to miss. Was real bummed, thought it would be their last LA performance and I was LITERALLY taking classes in the venue (Royce has like 25 lecture/discussion classrooms).

    Then my girlfriend surprised me with tickets to the June 2015 show. Had no idea they even had plans to return to LA. FF7 remake was announced the day before at E3. We experienced great redemption that night. Was goodtimes.

    I'm thinking of picking up some tickets for the one in Houston.
    I've never been to any concert or anything of the sort before, but hearing this would be amazing.
    Looking at the prices, it won't be too expensive either.
    Anyone got recommendations on where to best sit at? Is there a section that would be great without going to the most expensive Seats?

    Not knowing the venue, I assume that since it is a home to the Houston Symphony Orchestra, the acoustics will be good throughout the venue. Sight lines are not necessary for this. You won't need to shell out for front row. If you want to see the screen that displays FMVs, then orchestra or front rows of the mezzanine , but you're not there for watching video; you're there for the music.

    You're pretty much there for both, the video just enhances the experience even more.

    Jones Hall is a relatively small venue, there aren't really many 'bad seats' in the house. I'll see if I can't find some photos I took from the upper deck when Mythbusters were in town when I get back home.
