I went back in 2006 Tickets are probably gonna vary between $75+ up to $150 ( at least thats what I remember paying back in 2006 )

Id also have to see what the venue was like. According the the videos and websites, its suppose to be a combination of performance arts on stage, a FULL Orchestra of instruments AND a Chorus/Choir like singers ALL with a MASSIVE VIDEO DISPLAY of epic cuts scenes along with the musics presentations. its just plain epicawsomemakemewannacryofjoykthanksplz.

the show was about 2+ hours long and they even had mini-Tournaments and massive doorprizes at the Concert Hall

so overall I'd be willing to go again (heck my birthday is the week before AND WonderCon) so February sounds like a fun month to me already...

WOOT!

here are some websites to clarify,

when in doubt, google sometimes actually helps :P yay for the internet.

Wonder Con
http://www.comic-con.org/

Date & Location: 
FRI, FEB 27 -
SUN, MAR 1
Moscone Center South
747 Howard Street
San Francisco, CA 94103

Video Games LIVE:
http://www.videogameslive.com/

Date and Location:
February 28, 2009
Oakland, CA Fox Oakland Theatre
TBA
ON SALE 1/5



Semi Like Fanime a few years back, just like any Major Con + (cross promoting) Concert, but in this case, you'll have to travel accross the bay to catch them BOTH. a bit of a trek, so they'll prolly reccommend using BART or something.

And yes, Video games live is FUN:

Pics or it didnt happen?
