    I'll be going to the Baltimore show since I missed the NYC show this year, plus it's a couple weeks after my Bday so good timing.

    Anyone ever been to the Baltimore Symphony? Or can tell me from their shows where they would have rather sat? I'm willing to pay the 150 for the seats if its worth it. Here is the seating chart http://www.bsomusic.org/main.taf?eru...1&PerfNo=10344 I'll only need 2-3 tickets.

    Thank you so much for this post, their performance is the same weekend as Otakon. Last I had checked they didn't have any more dates in the area. As for a good place to sit, I can't speak for the Baltimore Symphony but at the other venues I've been to (NJPAC, Kennedy Center, Mann Center) I can say that everywhere on the ground level was tremendous, the more centered you can get the better, personally.

    So I actually want the cheap floor seats 10 rows back? I would think with the design of most halls you don't want to be anywhere near the stage.

    Grabbed 2 tickets, Z108 and Z109.... I think these are the same seats I had last year.... pretty close anyway. I chose these seats instead of whatever they thought was "best seating"

    I'm going to the London concert at the Royal Albert hall in November. Going to meet up with some long time ls mates there since it's the closest EU will ever get to a Fanfest.

    Went to the show last night, grabbed the cheap seats on the balcony. Overall great show - only problem with the balcony was that you couldn't see the choir because of the screen they used to show clips from the games. Other than that, only thing I didn't like was that they didn't play Aerith's Theme. Hope you guys that are going tonight in Atlanta enjoy it as much as I did.

    Damnit to hell. the program is not at all what is listed on the website.

    No ronfaure, no thanalan. Like six more songs I was looking forward to they aren't playing. This is boolshiat.

    By floor level I mean anything not the balcony. Never personally been any closer than 20 rows from the stage, have all sounded great. When you're that far back coupled with the incline away from the stage it typically makes for a nice view of the full orchestra in a comfortable sitting position. See the spoiler for an example video, was about 6 seats from the back of the hall on the floor level. Excuse the shakiness and relatively poor audio quality.
    Spoiler: show

    I am nine rows back and I think I could have sat further back.

    Hate no theme of love or one winged angel. I guess I need to go to the Chicago one.

    At the dallas show they let the audience decide between OWA and i cant remember what other song for the encore, OWA won with ease, Zanarkand theme gets me everytime.

    So slight bump but I just checked their website and they're coming to Toronto in March 2012, I'll probably get a ticket next week.

    For those of you that know the Chicago area, is the Symphony Center in a nice part of town? I'm shopping for hotels and want to know if it's safe to get something a couple blocks away and walk.

    Zanarkand theme makes me bawl my eyes out - so anyone spots someone crying like a loon in London... it's not me honest!

    Think we're like right at the front for the London date - would have to find where I'd hidden the tickets to check.
