I think the general concert-going public will be more predisposed not to attend, but the popularity of FF might win some attendance.
Personally I've been waiting for something like this for a while. It's one thing to hear stuff like this on a CD, but live is something I've yet to experience... should be interesting

You lucky @#$%&s...
Oboromaru. Yup seems they're all "one-eyed" masked guys now. Just coincidence. Damn boredom that can kill you with a sword! A friend of mine talking about elves in LOTR

That sounds so cool, but if LA is too far for E3 then it's definetly too far for a single concert. ;-;

agreed too bad they're not touring across the states. i cried when i couldn't go to 2002.02.20. now i'll cry again
watching the attending audience would be interesting enough. i'm wondering how many tickets they'll sell, and what the audience makeup will be of
i remember listening to an eight or ten minute track of one concert (don't remember which one exactly. it was performed by an American orchestra). when the beautiful, perfect composition was complete, there were only a handful of people applauding. that saddens me
I know what it's like to seem wrong when you're right.

Whooo! Im in LA. This will kick ass.
I feel sorry for you other guys, but the fact is Southern Cal is the most diverse place in the world ever. So it has some plus's/minus's. I put this in as a plus.

They did a few years back when E3 was in Atlanta - and everyone complained and hated it! "Oh it's too expensive to send our staff and booths from Cali. to the East Coast, blah blah..."
From what I remember reading though in EGM and IGN, people did not like coming from Cali. (where prob. +90% of US game companies are plus Japanese divisions) to Atlanta. Plus the extreme southern heat and humidity and having different events too far apart in the city made for some big headaches. As such, it's been home in LA since then...which also does me no good.

Cali is also closer to Japan, which is kind of important these days.
As for other parts of the US, well they'll just have to wait. If it proves popular then this kind of thing might start to spread. Really, this is one of the first times anything like this has happened publicly, so you can't fault them for going with the area they're most familiar with.
