Jack Wall you rock man, wish i could have gotten your autograph. Thank you guys for making something as great as VGL from one gamer to another. Thank you and hope to see you again soon!
thank you for coming to austin, texas..it was a great performance.i hope to see you next year...but in san antonio,texas!!!!please come!it wasa pleasure meeting you....you allvery very down to earth...
Fantastic Performance tonight in Louisville! I'll be attending it every year from now on! Just wish I couldn't have been late so I could have beat that guy at guitar hero and been on stage, because I really could have beat him.
Wow, the show in Louisville Kentucky was amazing. I thought it was funny when that one dude got on stage to play sweet emotion with the Louisville Orchestra. He had to calibrate the lag and complained about the orange button not working. Tommy Tallarico and Jack Wall are my heroes.
Well, I am very happy about the new CD! It is awesome. But it seems as if us in Idaho may have been forgotten? Boise was on the tour dates as "TBA" for quite a while, but now it's not on there at all. This is sad news :(
Do you guys ever play music from Y's ? Im an oldschool gamer with alot of Turbografx 16 stuff lol. I love videogame music, Lords Of Thunder was my fav.
