Hi everyone! This is Kristyn from the Zenkaikon Anime Convention again :)

I had already posted this on your e-mail list a while ago, so apologies if this is considered a cross-post, but I wanted to make sure you guys all knew about another great event coming to the Philadelphia area very shortly. Videos Games Live is a concert featuring music from many popular games. I went to the concert when they first came here in 2006 and it was an amazing experience. I've already purchased tickets for their 7:30pm show on October 11th. ;)

Here's a brief description:

In addition to being a great show, VGL and the Kimmel Center have also been kind enough to do some cross-promotion with Zenkaikon, so I encourage you to check them out. You won't be disappointed. :D

EDIT: I just realized that there is a separate forum for Gaming events (as opposed to Anime events), so if someone would like to move this thread there, please feel free. Sorry about that :blush:
