Unless these allergies that have knocked me flat keep me still flat tomorrow, the whole family will be at the Video Games Live concert at the Hollywood Bowl tomorrow. There are even tickets left. I’ll be doing the Meet and Greet thing too, though I will probably miss out on meeting all the gameplayin’ celebs in Hollywood at the afterparty because I have to get the kids back home to get at least some sleep on a school night. It’ll be a late night as it is, but they’ve been pestering me about the show ever since they saw the classic game montage. (Note: YouTube seems to be down right now, but when it’s up, the first movie on that page should work).

You’re taking a limo, right? No sense in dealing with traffic.
I forgot to suggest that when you mentioned the red-carpet treatment.
Raph,
If you get a chance, speak to BT about his new album: This Binary Universe. I think it has many video game influences and the tracks are designed from a balanced technical and artistic direction.
Progressive Sounds has a very good and technical review of the album: http://www.progressive-sounds.com/Music-Reviews/BT-This-Binary-Universe.asp
A common touching point is track 6: The Antikythera Mechanism, which uses ukelele to good effect.
Wish I could be there. The event is a convergent point of video games and other forms of artistic entertainment.

I probably won’t make it in time for the red carpet thing. And we’re just driving up…
really enjoyed the show, i’d recommend this show to anyone.
great music, great live performances…
only problem was clearly their choice of audience participants.
they had 8000 gamer geeks out there, and they chose the 3 people in the place who had obviously never played space invaders or frogger.
Would have been much more enjoyable to see people who were at least competant…
