Video Games Live

I went to video games live in Birmingham and it was pretty sweet hearing some old and new games played through an orchestra. It was the Alabama Symphony Orchestra playing, with the UAB Singers (I don’t remember the name) doing vocals. There was also an awsome pianist there as well. It may sound pretty wierd listening to video game music but once you hear them play it will change your perspective. We were not allowed to bring cameras however, everyone brought them anyways… except me . At one point in the show the crowd was clapping to the beat however, way out of sync and the conductor turned to the crowd and started conducting for the croud. It was awsome.

Anyways, here is a couple of youtube videos to see for your self.
