Well, Sugiyama is putting on another Dragon Quest IX concert in Japan, perhaps to celebrate the Symphonic Suite CD release that’s out tomorrow. Turns out the two shows last year were popular enough to warrant a third show, this time in Fukuoka City. The show’s taking place on February 21, 2010, and it appears to be an afternoon concert, starting at 1:15 PM.
With this game being so successful, I can’t say I’m surprised, but I wish I could make it out to one of these shows. I do highly recommend checking out Tim Van Ingen’s writeup from one of last year’s shows, as it’s probably the best thing you’re going to get without being there. In the meantime, I’ll be checking out the Dragon Quest IX Symphonic Suite… took you long enough, King Records!
Are you surprised that they’re putting on a third show so long after the original two shows? Do you wish you lived in Japan to go to these kinds of shows and to visit the recently opened Dragon Quest IX-themed “Luida’s Bar” restaurant in Japan?
