That's kinda awesome and unexpected (my hometown). I wonder if any Buffalo GAFers will go. Paging CrankyJay.

Have there been any Nintendo symphonic events in Buffalo before?

Please tell me they plan a CD/iTunes release for this!

The one in Buffalo is 45 minutes away, but it's on a freaking Tuesday night. What the heck Pokemon Company?

Also worth noting the one in Boston is at the same weekend as the Pokémon World Championships 2015 which is also in Boston

If we can get a date at the Royal Albert Hall, I'll be delighted.

Agreed, though I'm honestly expecting it to be in the same place and weekend as the UK Nationals next year. It makes more sense.

Still about 5 hours at the best location for me. I think I'll pass.

I did make the 6 hour trip for Zelda though. I'm sure this will be amazing too, but I guess I'm just not really feeling it.

Toronto? I'm there. Sony Performing Arts Centre was a great venue for the Zelda Symphony Orchestra and I'm even more hyped for this one.

I'll be the idiot wearing a Pikachu hat and shouting "PIKA-PI" in my gruffest, manliest voice.

Toronto, eh?

I'm still not sure if this will be anywhere as good as the Zelda one though so I'll hold off buying tickets

I'd love a paid live like the one for the Zelda concert in Japan, in February. Now that was fantastic.

Mexico, yusss.

Slowly but surely we've been getting some of the 'biggest' VG concerts here... FF: Distant Worlds, Zelda: Symphony of the Goddesses, Video Games live and now Pokemon <3

Just like the Zelda symphony, can't make any dates. The North American leg is while I'm in Europe, and the European part while I'm in the states. DAMMIT

My best friends boyfriend just bought 4 tickets for them and me and my boyfriend to go on July 26th! :)

I told him to pick the cheap tickets that are $35 each, he chose expensive ones. <_<;

I spent $70 on the Zelda concert and didn't go, definitely will go to this :)

Oh, not my city...*sigh* honestly I can't even blame them after the Zelda concert where they had to resort to giving out two tickets for the price of one the days before the concert because of low sales and EVEN THEN the place was only half full at best :|
