Video Games Live Canada Tour

Has anyone thought about what they will cosplay for the costume contest? Yes I know it's in October but my mind is racing already, especially since I got tickets!

If I have time I might make a new one... If not, then I might bring Skull Kid or Megaman.

The one I went to last year I wore my Ruby costume. It was fun, I am contemplating going again since they have a new line up

If they come to my city again, HELL yes. I'll wear my Schala cosplay, too; when I said I was working on it the last time I went I got SO many people saying "OMG wear it next time!". And heck, I could probably win the costume contest XD.

The quality of the costume really doesn't matter for the contest. For us young girl in a green t shirt that had Mario and Luigi on it and a Luigi hat won. It's by audience cheering so you never know where it goes.

Yeah, I know. I was in the contest last time too. But Schala seems to be really popular among VGL-goers.



....but scrap that anyway, because they're skipping my city and going to Toronto won't happen that close to Halloween.

Based on the live chat last night they are considering having two awards for the costumes: fan choice and host choice (based on construction, quality, etc) because they realize that it is unfair.

I also bought VIP tickets... A backstage tour is a little too much to miss.

I agree. And with Tommy hosting it, gah -fangirls- This will be my first VGL show and my little brothers first concert. He is very excited, and Tommy is his idol so I'm very happy we'll get this experience. I wish the Kitchener show fell on my birthday LOL (Oct 26) but that's Montreal's date :P

Been to every single show thus far. A little saddened that I am not sitting in the front row like last year but hey, sitting by the sound board with awesome leg room sounds pretty good as well. I am more interested in all the be hind the stage stuff as I have studied all sorts of music and performances of the arts.

It's October!!! Who's excited?!?!

My Hex is slowly coming together... I am hoping I will get it done before the concert. My bro is thinking of coming as a creeper..... But we'll see if that sticks.

I think there will be more people dressed up as it is so close to the 31st.

Xwolf Okami and I will be attending one of the shows, possibly wearing Neku and Mr. Mew. However, even though we didn't win, we're a little hesitant to enter the competition due to entering last year.

Yea, I hear that. I don't know if I will enter for sure. Usually the cutest ones win. Unless they offer two awards as they briefly mentioned in the live video chat.

I simply don't want to be sandbagging, unless sandbagging is only when you win.
