Next Thursday there is a Video Games Live concert at the Mershon Auditorium at 7:30pm. VGL is a concert tour that performs video game music internationally. It is a pretty well known event, and I'm going to go with a few friends. I've heard about the event before but I didn't think there would be a concert so close to me. It's literally about an 8 minute walk away. They have concerts all over the world: all over Europe, Brazil, Canada, and now the US.

The Columbus Symphony performs the music from various video games, from really old Atari games to the newest ones, like from the Halo or Metal Gear Solid series. They play the music while a bunch of crazy visual effects goes on, and there is video game stuff everywhere. I'm pretty excited about going; we are getting the most expensive seats, and have a pretty big group going. It's definitely a good break from midterms!
