Probably not. Fanime has made plans, involving contracts, with these bands. Chances are that it has the date of performance pretty much set in stone. If they were to try and change it most likely it would incur a fee or something negative in their communications with the bands.

Again, I say oh well and Hooray for Play!

Thanks.

No. MusicFest has been on Saturday for a few years now, and yes, contracts are involved. If you want to blame someone for the scheduling conflict, don't look here.

The PLAY! concert starts at 8PM. Does anyone know what time the music fest starts? In a perfect world we can attend both since the PLAY! program I believe usually runs about two hours or so. In any case, I have been waiting for PLAY! to come to the Bay Area since I first saw the banner on the fanime website last year! It is not everyday that you get the opportunity to see a full orchestra, choir, grammy award winning conductor, guest stars, receive limited edition merchandise, world premiere of Lost Odyssey, The Darkness, and yet still more to be announced. I have already spent my money on PLAY!. Oh I cannot wait.

I hadn't looked at the PLAY! website for a few weeks.  Did anyone else notice the free stuff they're giving away to the first 1,000 people?  How cool is that?  http://www.play-symphony.com/news.php?full=70

I was thinking that it might be nice if we can have a group to meet up before the concert for dinner? If this is something that people want to do suggest a place. I am thinking to meet uo at the convention center. Does anyone have any restaurant suggestions? Holler. Only 19 more days!

I'm getting into line 2 hours early at least. I want to nab a soundtrack! lol

I might just grab some mcdonalds around 4 or 5 and then go stand in line. whee.

[TheAvacado]

Get in line around 4 or 5?  Holy crap!  *worries*  I want the free swag but that's really early!  Oh I know; I'll get myself entertainment at Fanime earlier and bring that with me!  *problem solved*  Yay!  

Anyway, I didn't read the previous pages so I apologize if this has already been asked and answered but does anyone know how late this is going to go?

Probably around 9:30 or 10 at the latest if it starts at 8.

I've seen people start a line for Masq. IN THE MORNING. Just thought I should point that out.

[yillfu]

don't forget to bring your DS if you have one!  i read from a review of the chicago show that people were chatting on the DS during the intermission, sounds like a good idea.  i'll be bringing mine.

Fun. I may hijack one of my sister's.

In the morning? As much as I'd like to nab free stuff I don't think so.

Also, keep in mind that Masquerade is first come first serve seating, that would  explain why people would get in line in the morning to nab the best spot. When you've got seats already picked out it's not as pressing to get into a line, unless you're eager for goodies like me. ^_^
