    In case anyone hasn't realised yet, Tommy Tallarico's video games live show is coming to Ireland at the national concert hall. Have my tickets booked already. Should be a great show with all your favourites.

    Yeah it's a live concert. Not sure how long it is but I'm sure there are reviews of it and I'd say a lot of the retro stuff is in a long 10 minute medley. I've heard good things about it, Tommy is a great artist and if you aren't convinced just check out some youtube videos. If it's successful it might open the doors for Eminensce (sp?) or play as well.

    I actually can't thank you enough for this. Been wanting to see this for feckin ages, and was recently considering going to the UK to see it, as i never really expected it to come over here. Going to book my tickets now.

    I've been keeping an eye out for this group or the Play! group to come here. Cheers for the heads up man. Gettin' me tickets now. Think it was this group that did an amazing version of the Last Ninja music (Probably my favourite along with Zelda)

    The tickets have been available for a while now, I'm amazed it wasn't advertised more. Anyway I can't wait and was also seriously considering a trip to london to see it or play.

    I went to this in London last year and it was amazing so I'll definitely be going again. Apparently they have a variety of different games they play music from and they mix it around so chances are it'll be a different set this time round. I'll probably take part in the cosplay contest this time too :)

    Who would you feel the need to hide from? I can't imagine feeling like it's something to be ashamed of. In fact I know of at least 1 non-gamer who went to it and really enjoyed it.

    Sounds good, now to make a few mates and then ask them to go!



    But when I ask them they won't want to be my mates anymore!

    To be honest I'd say they will enjoy it. Would the wife and kids not go?

    Was thinking that myself but figured November was a bit far to arrange the meet for people not going to the concert (i.e. all meet up after).
