Anyone go to this in Philly tonight? I thought the piece selection was pretty good overall with acceptable levels of pandering. I had a good time overall. Autism levels were off the charts though.

I'm on my way back now. I agree, but what did you expect autism wise? It's just to be expected. The music was great.

People cosplaying, nerds spazzing out challenging each other over PSS, parents dressing their children up as Magnemite, screaming out answers to "Who's That Pokémon" (which were all starters, obv), etc. You name it.

Any pieces that you liked in particular? I enjoyed the Sinnoh route medley and Sycamore's Theme.

OP, if you are still here, do you know anything about their pieces being put on an album, if they're planning on doing so?

So you mean they were having fun while you were sat on your own doing nothing and talking to nobody to make sure you don't seem autistic?

Not OP, but I went to the Washington one and they didn't mention anything. I expected it to be put in with ORAS in the same way the Zelda one was with Skyward Sword, but they probably would have announced that by now.

That's not even autistic that just people having fun.

There were two families with two four or five year old kids who were screaming and punching at each other while pretending to be mega charizard before the show and it was pretty annoying but then a really autistic kid say infront of them and kept turning around to talk to the one mom and kid so I got a good laugh. Luckily every one around me kept quiet during the performance except the fujoshit Asian girls that say next to me after the intermission was over

As much pandering as it was it was done beautifully.

Was the high point of the night for me personally.

Went with my girlfriend, her idea, we sat lawn pretty much dead center at the back.

Was curious to see if they were going to do the remakes like Lavender Town from Fire Red but they didn't and to be honest I wasn't that bothered that they didn't.

The concert was intense as fuck, but the the whole thing was kinda hard to follow for me since there was some kid directly in front of me who most likely had actual autism. All he did for the entire concert was flail his arms around and pretend to play all the instruments at the same time. That being said, though, if they ever do this sort of thing in the future with more songs, I'd probably go again.

Yeah, the Sinnoh music was wonderful. I was looking forward to hearing a bit of music from the snow route (217) but it wasn't included. Oh well.

I kept cringing early on as I heard people speak out loud about their teams and stuff, it's the first time I've been to some sort of event like that. I'm not use to it being accepted I guess lol

Should have moved, man. There were actually a lot of seats available. I paid for the cheapest non-lawn seats and was able to move to the most expensive section ten minutes into the concert.

Anyone see the dude (and I do mean dude) dressed up as Misty? Wasn't sure what to make of that one.

Also: retards leaving before the encore. Niggas ain't never been to an orchestra before.
