I went to the Sonic Symphony Orchestra concert last night with my cousin in Chicago and y’all it was legitimately the BEST show I’ve ever gone to. Holy shit !!!! 💥
The first half was beautiful classical medleys of songs from the classic sonic games (sonic the hedgehog 1, sonic CD, sonic the hedgehog 2, sonic mania) and then the second half of the show was all rock songs done from the big 3D sonic titles featuring some of the original members of Crush 40!!
I can’t upload every song I filmed but as a surprise for Halloween weekend, they did Pumpkin Hill from Sonic Adventure 2!! 🎃🔥🎸
Other songs they played were I Am All of Me(Shadow the Hedgehog), What I’m Made Of(Sonic Heroes), Open Your Heart(Sonic Adventure), His World(Sonic ‘06), Reach For The Stars(Sonic Colors), Endless Possibilities (Sonic Unleashed. My favorite sonic song EVER.), Knight of the Wind(Sonic and the Black Knight), Undefeatable(Sonic Frontiers), Break Through It All(Sonic Frontiers), Fist Bump(Sonic Forces), Escape From the City(Sonic Adventure 2), and last but not least Live and Learn(Sonic Adventure 2).
Overall the music was amazing and the energy amongst everyone was so hype and positive. This was the first ever video game based concert I’ve gone to, and from now on I’m going to be attending way more shows like this!
I’ve recently been purchasing Sonic plushies again since I’m back into the franchise again, and my two first ones are some rather obscure yet cool characters! Tikal from Sonic Adventure and Mephiles from Sonic ‘06!
