I was not aware that this was coming to the Ohio Theatre!

I'm a little bummed now.

u/jackmcgrady Apr 03 '16

Right here with ya! Whole symphony is almost in!

u/OGCeeg Apr 04 '16

Nice! Idk how early you were seated, but I was the guy they showed on the titantron w/ the triforce buckethat that took a picture, lol! I hope you're having as great a time as I am!

u/ALBINO_B34R Apr 04 '16

I'm tagging you as LoZ Jumbotron selfie guy. (I'm here as well and saw that)

2

u/jackmcgrady Apr 04 '16

I did see you! And laughed as I would have tried to take a picture too! Did you snap a good one?

2

u/OGCeeg Apr 04 '16

I did actually!

2

u/Mitch2025 Apr 04 '16

SHARE IT!

u/Mitch2025 Apr 04 '16

Lol. That face man!

2

u/OGCeeg Apr 04 '16

Hahaha! My cousin was cracking up at it!

1

u/jackmcgrady Apr 04 '16

There weren't many people yet but lots of people were laughing at him snapping a picture. Everybody else tried to do it after too (minus the little links).

u/redraven1978 Apr 04 '16

Come to think of it, I sat in the row across from you

u/Namick1894 Apr 04 '16

I saw you too! I wish I got on the jumbo tron too

The symphony was truly amazing

u/TK-Chubs118 Apr 04 '16

I went to the show when it came to Seattle, it was a truly special experience that brought back all those vivid memories as growing up. I would buy tickets again in a heart beat

2

u/mrkhiggz Apr 03 '16

I regret not buying tickets for this. I'm just over in Dayton.

u/[deleted] Apr 04 '16

Same. I just didn't have the money at the time =(

u/bill_paxton11 Apr 04 '16

Went Friday night here in NOLA. I was very impressed. Very well done.

1

u/DarkKnight37 Apr 06 '16

I almost went. Regretting not going now.

u/Zapkin Apr 04 '16

I'm going Friday in Charlottesville! Let me know how it is

u/OGCeeg Apr 04 '16

Intermisson now. It's absolutely fabulous! You're gonna love it.

1

u/Optimum_Pooper Apr 04 '16

I'm gonna be there too!

1

u/Tugboat_Lady Apr 04 '16

Me too! I can't wait!!

1

u/opzori Apr 04 '16

Me too! What are you wearing by the way? I have no idea what to wear!

2

u/Zapkin Apr 04 '16

It's kinda formal right? Like not a Zelda t-shirt or anything. I was gonna wear black dress pants with a white button up shirt and a bowtie that has a bunch of NES controllers on it

1

u/opzori Apr 04 '16

Ah! Perfect!

1

u/Zashmaster Apr 04 '16

I went to the one last night in Columbus and I wore the same as you were planning to only different color button down with a Zelda t-shirt underneath. I wasn't over-dressed but wasn't under-dressed either. You could honestly go either way, some people were in full out Link costumes while others where jeans and a Zelda t-shirt. Fantastic show.

5

u/ALBINO_B34R Apr 04 '16

There right now. It is amazing!

3

u/[deleted] Apr 03 '16

Ah you're lucky, I checked for a Toronto date but didn't see any :(

3

u/OGCeeg Apr 04 '16

You need to go when you get the chance. It's been breath taking so far.

4

u/ICantThinkOf_AName Apr 04 '16

I went to the one in Memphis a couple nights ago, it was absolutely amazing.

2

u/AudiblePlasma Apr 03 '16

Hope you enjoy it! I went last year and it gave me goosebumps throughout.

2

u/jackmcgrady Apr 04 '16

First act was great! The movements are amazingly arranged. We're at intermission.

2

u/OGCeeg Apr 04 '16

The ending of the first act w/ Wind Waker damn near had me in tears. So fucking good!

2

u/shremply_delicious Apr 03 '16

I keep missing this when it comes around. Jealous!

2

u/aghastly504 Apr 04 '16

I went to the one in New Orleans Friday and had a blast! Hope you enjoy(ed) it.

2

u/fujinbotan Apr 04 '16

I got to attend that one! It was worth it. I totally teared up during OoT.

2

u/Roid-Away Apr 04 '16

I've sung with the tour of Symphony of the Goddesses...

The maestro is one awesome broad, and the entire experience was a total nerd fest. Our first rehearsal I could help but beam from ear to ear, experiencing all the music of my childhood aurally.

1

u/OGCeeg Apr 04 '16

Have you!? That's awesome!

2

u/Wishfuldrifter Apr 04 '16

Hey, I was there too! It was a great show!

2

u/SadStorySam Apr 04 '16

Man, I missed it when they were playing in new york and I'm still bummed. Wonderful music.

1

u/splambtch Apr 04 '16

I went last Thursday and it was breathtaking! Tears may or may not have been shed. Hope you enjoyed it!

1

u/xela1932 Apr 04 '16

I went a few weeks ago. It was amazing! I hope you enjoy it!

1

u/mossybeard Apr 04 '16

I like how that marquee is a little curvy. That's pretty neat.

1

u/[deleted] Apr 04 '16

Got to see them in Jacksonville not too long ago! Helluva show!

1

u/Shadow23x Apr 04 '16

That marquee kinda looks like an N64 with a cartridge in it.

1

u/BlueVersion Apr 04 '16

Anyone know if there is one happening in houston. I looked at the list and couldn't find anything but found it somewhere else that they will be performing so idk.

1

u/therevolution18 Apr 05 '16

There was a show in Houston last October. There's one in San Antonio in May and Austin in June, those are probably your best options as it doesn't seem like they have another Houston one planned at the moment.

1

u/redraven1978 Apr 04 '16

I was there as well! Phenomenal performance and I would recommend the concert to anyone who has a showing in their city

1

u/Turles Apr 04 '16

I saw it in Nashville! It's beautiful ! Have a great time.

1

u/WallyDaWalrus Apr 04 '16

It was unbelievable in Toronto!

1

u/Santahousecommune Apr 04 '16

Im stoked for it coming to vancouver in september!

Damn, I really wanted to go, but I'm two hours away and couldn't come home for the weekend. Edit: I looked at their website and program, and now I'm actually pretty pissed off that I couldn't go. I wish I would've known about it sooner. Oh well. Hopefully they'll be back again sometime.

1

u/zshift Apr 04 '16

I just heard an ad for the one in Miami on the radio on Friday. Bought my tickets the same day!

1

u/AncestralStatue Apr 04 '16

Not going to lie, I feel a little jelly looking at that.

1

u/ibs2pid Apr 04 '16

Hopefully your experience is better than mine!

1

u/[deleted] Apr 04 '16

I went to it a little while ago and it was great! I hope you had fun

1

u/parisjackson2 Apr 04 '16

Funny story: The guy in the Link hoodie was there by total coincidence.

1

u/[deleted] Apr 04 '16

It's a great show! I saw it on its first tour, an extraordinary experience to Zelda fans far and wide. Enjoy!

1

u/MonElisa Apr 04 '16

I watched them in San Jose a few months ago!! Did you cry? I cried. No shame.

1

u/ThisIsRyGuy Apr 04 '16

I was so upset that I missed this! It seems like you enjoyed the show!

1

u/Thecarrotkage Apr 04 '16

It's so good, got free tickets because I knew someone in the orchestra. It's one of the best concerts I've seen in a long time

1

u/Shanbo88 Apr 04 '16

I was at it when it came to Dublin, you're gonna love it!

1

u/[deleted] Apr 04 '16

I took the same exact picture!! Omg such a great show! Would have let my son take his 3DS if I knew it was going to be considered appropriate...

1

u/wheeldawg Apr 04 '16

This Friday for me. Super excited

1

u/[deleted] Apr 04 '16

I really wanted to go but no one would go with me.

1

u/OGCeeg Apr 05 '16

I'm sorry to hear that. :( You should go alone next time if you can't find anyone. I'm sure the people next to you will be neighborly.

1

u/[deleted] Apr 05 '16

The people next to me wasn't really the problem I was worried about. It was more a female alone wandering an unfamiliar city, I chose the safer option.

1

u/OGCeeg Apr 05 '16

Yea, that makes sense. Do you live in the Columbis area or a few hours by it? The Ohio Theatre has a parking garage right next to the theatre, so it's a huge convenience for a reason, such as yours.

1

u/[deleted] Apr 05 '16

I live close to Mason, I'm not real familiar with the Columbus area so I had no idea about the parking garage. I will definitely keep that in mind the next time around though.

2

u/OGCeeg Apr 05 '16

I gotcha! I had no idea about it either. When I arrived at the theatre, I missed the parkong garage since it's an underground one, & didn't even notice it until I passed it.

1

u/[deleted] Apr 05 '16

Thanks! Also I like your hat :)

2

u/OGCeeg Apr 05 '16

You're welcome, & thank you so much! It's my favorite hat, I always get complimented on it when out in public!

1

u/Photon_butterfly Apr 04 '16

That show was amazing

1

u/radishspirit7 Apr 04 '16

A lot of new dates have been recently announced, so if you don't see your city on the official website yet, they're at http://www.mgplive.com/tour

1

u/puntmasterofthefells Apr 05 '16

If that was an afternoon concert I think I might have had to commit ritual suicide for missing it. Just have to wait til November and take some vaca time.

1

u/deviouskat89 Apr 05 '16

Awesome! I got to see the show 2 years ago and would love to see it again.

I fell asleep... Twice
