Videro Gamez

Just sitting here in the intermission of Video Games Live - a concert put on by the Utah Symphony (although it looks like it's a production that tours nationally, playing with local orchestras).

It's pretty much the awesome. They picked a guy from the audience, had him put on a t-shirt that had a picture of the ship from Space Invaders on the back of it, gave him a tethered fire button, and had the orchestra play the game music as he played a level of the game by firing with the button and moving across the stage (they tracked him) to move the ship on the big screen left and right. So, yes - the awesome.

There's lasers and fog. And they had the guy that did the viral video of himself playing Mario Bros. music on his piano blindfolded play 10 themes from the Final Fantasy series for one of the numbers. That guy has the maddd keyboard skilsz.
