I'm not undertale's biggest fan but IMO its undeniable the music is good.
But what struck me more is...
(And what made made me a little emotional watching it)
What a celebration!
The idea of someone slaving away on and then releasing a one man project
And then 5 years later an entire ORCHESTRA worths of people getting together to celebrate that work
How many games get celebrated like that?
Edit:
One small detail that really blew me away was that for the performance of "an ending" they had to have two pianists sitting next to each other on the same bench because the music he'd written WASNT PLAYABLE WITH JUST TWO HANDS
I like a big maxxed out song every now and then. Also impressed by the ability to perform and take off a heavy sweater at the same time. I always have to struggle for like 10 mins to get out of a cable knit
not a concert but i found this youtube channel during quarantine that collects vinyl and does relatively obscure Dj sets centred around music from around the world. listening to this one today and feeling pretty good:
the artist that I mentioned earlier in this thread, iri, posted one video from her online concert - the one I could not buy coz I didn't have a Japanese cell phone.

she's so cool!
the concert I was supposed to go to next month tho... I had to pay a $300 deposit to my ticket broker for access to her account so I can view the online broadcast of the show. Then I'll get $250 refunded back to me. Not the most ideal solution but whatevs...
I'm gonna spend that week splurging on Japanese food to cheer myself up since I cannot actually go to Japan lol. Does anyone have any favorite Japanese food I should eat? lol
@JonDHarrison#7999 Total sidebar, and I'm gonna guess this is not your opinion on this, but for me dir en grey fell out of my sphere of interest when they went full numetal and lost most of the clean vocals, or especially when interchanging them. but one of my favorite songs of theirs is fully in that period, conceived sorrow.
Here's mafumafu live. this should by all rights be something I hate, but - I don't. the "won't show my face" gimmick is odd but whatever. I guess I'd say this person is the best at vocal editing of anybody I've heard before.

Has anyone found concert footage of a memorable show they attended? I was at this unwound show - not great audio and the crowd is a little timid (it was all ages and this was the places to go for kids who couldn't see shows anywhere else, so everyone was an awkward early teen (except me I was rockin out)) but hey that band kicked ass
@exodus#8260 Kyo has continued to evolve - yes āMarrow of a Boneā was an album low point - but if you have not listened since, I highly, HIGHLY recommend āUroborosā and āARCHEā as excellent albums that feel like the group at their very best.
As someone who really likes earlier DIr en Grey, I totally get that. If you prefer his clean vocals, I would definitely recommend checking out Kyoās other band, Sukekiyo, if you havenāt. They are kind of the band I've always wanted Dir en Grey to become.
