Video Games Live to Rock Arena Near You in 2008

Video Games Live, the reigning titans of live symphonic videogame music, will be hitting the road again for a 2008 world tour. Veteran game composer Tommy Tallarico will lead his immersive multimedia spectacular through Brazil, Taiwan, China, and Germany, with stops at game conferences, on a cruise ship, and in a Mexican bullring. As always, the tour promises grand-scale graphics projections set to epic videogame hits from Final Fantasy, Legend of Zelda, Sonic, Halo, World of Warcraft, Tetris, et al., as well as audience-interactive portions of the show in which attendees can win cash or prizes. Perpetually sold-out since the first historic VGL show at the Hollywood Bowl in 2005 and popular enough to spawn a Final Fantasy-themed competing concert from SquareSoft, Video Games Live remains a testament to gaming’s stronghold on pop culture.
