Man, his most recent concert was so awesome! I cannot believe how simply amazing this man is! I hope that they release this concert on DVD.

According to… eye witnesses, the concert last year was awesome, so I’m pretty optimistic. And of course I got my ticket a few weeks ago! 😛

From speaking with people on FF Online recently who went to the US FF concert last month, apparently it was brilliant… Congratulations to everyone going to the German one, and enjoy yourselves…

Yeah, I hope it comes out on DVD, which is apparently in the planning stages.

It’s just a pity that there is next to no chance in the the seven stages of hell of Nobuo Uematsu ever coming down here to Australia for a FF concert… *sigh*

That alone would be worth buying two tickets to hear, no matter the cost >.>

I wonder if that’s going to be a rendition of the entire opera from FFVI, or just an excerpt, as there isn’t any actual track on the FFVI OST or any of the arranged albums by that name.

The closest piece I can think of is the famous Aria di Mezzo Caraterre, which is of course Celes’ opera theme (the part where you have to choose the right lines), but any part of the opera orchestrated would be brilliant..

Pity there is still no orchestrated rendition of Dancing Mad though… sigh…
