oh can choose the seats?

damn their online booking is down?

This post has been edited by skypie: Jul 30 2012, 11:48 AM

Wahh why so quick tickets sold? VGL also not this fast

I straightly go to the mpo.... but yeah, you still can choose seat online

hi folks, I know that everyone of us love this, but please remember don't yell, clap, shout when they started/during playing, because I need to listen. please yell, clap, shout when they finish play. thank you.

Haha yup. This is not VGL, this is quite formal I would say. Clap for appreciation is more than enough. ^^

isn't clap weren't allowed during play?

Will there be some cosplays going on the stage?
Or else whole concert only music will be a little boring though.

OMGGGG. im late to the party, distant world gonna come to malaysiaaa?

yeah same question. nobuo gonna be there?

ticket price???

cam check on the front link

but got 302, 260, 180

I don't think got cosplay.

But they will be putting FMVs and videos from the games up on big screen when the OST from that particular FF gets played.

Get ready for fire when they play One Winged Angel.

ok, will clap and scream just to annoy the hell out of you

Hopefully there is no cosplay, save that for VGL. This should be a class above. Worse of all theyre wearing something that are not FF related at all. So, no thanks.

Suits....oh how i like put on a suit for this concert...(^^)

just as i expected

whatdo you mean?

wow didn't know about this.

Finally reach Malaysia eh, still remember went to the SG one alone, pretty good and saw uncle Uematsu in person

Dress up as Cloud and Arieth/Tina.

Added on August 16, 2012, 2:48 pmUncle Uematsu i don't think appearing here...don't see his name also.

this is proper concert played by the Malaysian Philharmonic Orchestra....and dress code is smart casual....normally slacks and button shirts are acceptable edi...of course, there will be people wearing blazers or lounge suits...

concerts are very punctual....once they start, u will not be allowed in until intermission, which is about 50 - 60 minutes after that....means if u'r late, then sorry, 1st half of the show gone....after intermission, which is about 15 minutes, the 2nd half starts....again, if u miss the start time of 2nd half, maybe u in toilet or sumting, then bye bye liao...u can go back home...

the show will be accompanied by a large projector screen above the orchestra, so it will be awesome for people who played Final Fantasy before, coz the memories will come flooding back...

like someone mentioned earlier, no clapping once the music starts...ppl go there to really enjoy and appreciate the orchestra music, not like some rock concert or anything like that....can clap when the piece ends...

just kay-poh wanna post this up, coz i'm getting excited as each day goes by! got myself 2 tickets, RM300 each! woohoo!

hmm. I still wonder did the MPO website actually charged my card for the payment?

I'm scared that my tickets were not purchased when it was sold.

They didn't charge my card on booking day.. they only charge it recently like a week or so back. So check your stmt again.. probably you should get a charge now. If not, you might want to call them to see if your tickets are confirmed/

been spamming the phone lines like mad, no one is there to answer my call.

the price rm120 the minimum which is so far away i bet u can't even hear any much from that side, while the better seat price so expensive not worth it

anyone knows what the playlist will be for the one in KL?
i really would love to see them play "FFVIII-Eyes On Me"

-edited- ticket sold

You can hear them pretty well all over the hall as they were built in a way where they will reflect and reverberate the sound all over the air in the hall.. Which can even seeps into you ear and heart so to speak... however you might not be able to see the people or the screen very well from far though..

Anyhow, I am super super late in this one.. Urgh!! I cant believe I nearly miss this golden opportunity!! But manage to get 2 tix, the 200 over one on the upper level.. Not the best seats.. But its alright.. I really cant wait though!!

Added on October 22, 2012, 11:54 pmYup. What you said is correct. This is a real orchestra.... not those VGL.
Had an awesome experience at SG, finally can feel it once again.

This post has been edited by jehutyz: Oct 22 2012, 11:54 PM

Wasted couldn't get any more tickets, all sold out. If anyone has 2 tickets to let go let me know, wanna bring my wife for the experience cos she didn't get to go for the one in Singapore previously

One of us can not make it to the concert. I have one tix for 17/11/2012 8:30:00 PM. PM me for more details.

One of the characters you guys can cosplay in this event is probably the Turks... All suit up...

I know it might be a little too late now but is there anyone who sells 2 tickets for this event? I really need them. i dont mind paying a little extra. Pls help!

---

Added on October 30, 2012, 11:35 pmDo you know where I can still get the tix?

This post has been edited by jdfortune2007: Oct 30 2012, 11:35 PM

Luckily I bought mine in time . Rm520 ouch

Added on November 3, 2012, 8:28 amDeesscode just go shop in Dockers if u don't have any lol
Their long pants and button shirt is definitely smart casual

This post has been edited by jiidaineko: Nov 3 2012, 08:28 AM

RM520 each or a pair bro? got it direct from MPO or subsale?

well, just wear normal working clothes also considered smart casual edi....no need to spend so much just for the concert...but hey, Dockers are comfortable!

Should be a pair of RM260. If RM 300 can subsale for RM520..... That is really burning a hole.

Holy cow, a few months ago I'm not working with no disposable income, now that I do have the money and time, tickets are sold out! Anyone who can sell me two tickets will be my favourite person of the moment; price won't matter! Charge me how much you want (just kidding, of course I wouldn't mind paying extra, but not 200% extra or such) PM me or message me at 017-2342579 and we'll deal.

I also too late to found out. If anyone can't make it or want to sell off their ticket pls let me know on 016-232 6963. I need 2 ticket. Extra charges also I dont mind. thanks...

even when I was queueing for the tickets, I waited for about 5 hours, no thanks to the sale of other concert tickets going on at the same time! If I knew then, I would hav buy few more to sell!

but it's quite slim chance to get ppl to sell their tickets nw..good luck though!

If not because I'm not in Malaysia I would have get this.
I missed the only chance...so sad wei..~~

Yeap 260 x 2 . Bought from mpo online. Hahaha just saying, dont one dockers, uniqlo also can

If anyone has extra tickets please do PM me. Thanks

I may have an extra ticket for sale, if I get called up for work and cant attend on the 16th. Ticket price RM302, Row N right in the middle.

Yes, this is formal wear event, it's a shirt and slacks plus work shoes as well. Do not dress like for Video Games Live.

Anyone got extra pair of tickets? Pls let me know!

Looking for one/two tickets, cod @ kl, pj, tmn desa, oug, kuchai, puchong. Cash ready. Pls pm me. Thx!!

lol, all looking for ticket last minute...

just walked passed thru the Dewan Philharmonic Petronas this morning otw to work
LCD TV display there shows only the RM540 & RM 400+ (don't quite remember the amount) tickets are still available
funny is that these ticket pricing is not stated in the MPO website

This email just came in from Malaysian Philharmonics, reminder regarding dress code.

No cosplays. This is strictly a dress code event.

Wow you are sitting the place that I will sit on tomorrow show. Awesome.
Seem like One Winged Angel is the encore... I hope to listen more than 1 encore... Dancing Mad !!!!!

For you guys going for tomorrow and Sunday show, please show some enthusiasm and ask for an encore. We actually get TWO songs for the encore, "Suteki Da Ne" and my all time favorite, "One Winged Angel". "One Winged Angel" we got was the FF7 version, not the Advent Children version, although the visuals are from AC. Also, no guitar riffs.

The crowd went wild on both "Suteki Da Ne" and "One Winged Angel". But you won't get if you don't get off your lazy fat asses and applause for encore.

LOL I don't think you'll get "Dancing Mad" as encore song. The game version is 25 mins long, and the orchestra version is 11 minutes long. You'd only get one encore song if they do decide to play "Dancing Mad" tomorrow/Sunday.

These two songs are our encore songs for tonight's performance. I thought the show was done when they performed "Suteki Da Ne", but the crowd went crazy when Arnie Roth the composer decides to end the show with a bang!


Suteki Da Ne from Final Fantasy X


One Winged Angel from Final Fantasy VII.

They're promising to come again next time, with either one of the Japanese composers, Hamauzu-san or Uematsu.

After listening back at the ORCHESTRAL version of "Dancing Mad", I agree, it would even top my fav "One Winged Angel. This song is dark as hell!


Dancing Mad from Final Fantasy VI

This post has been edited by stringfellow: Nov 17 2012, 12:13 AM

Too bad i cannot make it there. i hope they release with collector edition disc.i definitely get it

I used to think along the same line about music listening via CDs and DVDs, but nothing beats live music. I listen to lossless music on my portable setup, but it now sounds crappy compared to listening live.

My point here is, if you have the opportunity, nothing beats live music.

AWESOME concert! when the 1st song, 'Prelude' came on, just the harp playing, wow! i got goosebumps man! the memories of Final Fantasy came rushing back in buckets!

the encore was definitely a surprise, and 'Suteki Da Ne' being my personal favourite, it was even sweeter....but i feel the original Japanese version was more engaging....maybe more familiar with it, perhaps? anyway, English version is not bad too...with the visuals accompanying the music

i was seated at row N, number 10 and 11 seats....perfect seating, as the walkway in front ensures no blocked view

for those going for saturday and sunday shows, enjoy man! it's definitely a dream come true for Final Fantasy fans!

oh yeah, dun forget ur souvenirs guys! i got myself the Distant World T-shirt for RM60, and the Final Fantasy book for RM30....the book is a short description of all Final Fantasy games from 1 - 14....in glossy print, and definitely one for the showcase cabinet! got also DVD and CD of the concert i guess, but i skipped those...

Those attending today please update if there are changes in set list and encore songs. I'll be dancing mad if they decided to do "Dancing Mad" as encore.

can we bring camera in?

No cameras. If you try and take pictures in the open, you ill get green-lasered. I'm not kidding. The ushers are very strict. I was lucky to get that shot on my iPhone before was told nicely to not take pictures. They do hold the rights to kick you out if you don't comply with their rules.

i see.. thanks for the info, going tomorrow afternoon session one

NO DANCING MAD???!!!! DANCING MAD IS LIKE THE MOST EPIC FINAL BOSS THEME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! nevertheless, looking forward towards tomorrow eventhough i have SPM paper on monday =)

When doing the autograph session, I brought all the Distant Worlds for him to sign then he asked what I was expecting and I told him 'Dancing Mad' as we have the organ to perform.... well he didn't give me any reason just told me next week at Adelaide will have that song... -.-"

Well it was a great show at KL after all. I like the soprano for both song, well if she can sing FFXIV Answer that will be awesome. Then JENOVA was not included. Sigh.... guess 1 day show is really not enough. Hope upcoming Distant Worlds can have 2 day show like the one in Japan. That is really awesome.

sorry for this noob question, where is this Dewan Filharmonik Petronas located? inside KLCC?

i managed to snap this, after that kena warned haha

Yup... should say part of KLCC. You can go through from the Branded (where all the Prada, Gucci, Chanel) level. Walk through from Chanel boutique then you can find it.


Ya... for camera... you really have to be quick for the snap before the show. The security at the hall was very tight and well managed. Guess what... I never expected this. Well done.

Added on November 18, 2012, 1:27 amFor those that want to get the CD or DVD. Get it now as is it cheap.... I bought from Amazon and just realised the price. Get from the event, you no need to pay for the shipping at Amazon. Worth it especially the DVD. Quite complete throughout the Distant Worlds tour.

This post has been edited by jehutyz: Nov 18 2012, 01:27 AM

thanks for the info bro! can't wait!

it was very nice!
my seat was at upper circle up there behind u guys. can see the whole orchestra but no close up. -.-

overall the show is nice. personally i don't like distant world version of blinded by light and clash of the big bridge.

Suteki da ne live is just so damn amazing.

i really hope they come again next year... at least, that what I begged Arnie Roth... like "please come again next year... PUHLEAAASE!!"

anyway, did any of u shed tears during the performance? i did, during the FFIII songs... where they came to Aria's theme and they have Aria on screen... god that was so sad T_T

I had my best seats at G good angle.

I think the reason they didn't play Dancing Mad is because of Malaysia being grouped together as an Asian country rather than anything Western. Artie Roth commented that they'll play Dancing Mad in the Adelaide, Australia show. They also play Dancing Mad in Boston and UK. Unless Dewan Philharmonik KLCC could not provide the organ needed for sections of the song being the reason it's not being played here, I think they assume that selections like Suteki Da Ne being more appropriate to be played here since it more "Asian" compared to the more operatically inclined Dancing Mad.

Just my assumption.
