[jamestephen123]

[TheSilverDragons]

[radi0activecookie]

i'd sure like a copy of those falling off the stand music sheets :3

[nvaleyjoe]

1:29 the concertmaster goes crazy. ;]

[nvaleyjoe]

@nvaleyjoe I mean 1:28 ishh,. Nigga get that shit right... >:)

[SailorVVV]

LOL!~!

[claw1441]

actually the falling papers & the cheerful attitude of the volin player make this Totoro performance become the most outstanding and remarkable performance.

Sure they are talented, but the most importantly their joyful attitude have connected me to this piece of music. Like all of u in here, i keep repeating this video depsite i hv watched it for so many times.

So it is more than just music !!

[TheSilverDragons]

I love it around 2:04

(paper falls......shhhhh)

[TheSilverDragons]

and 2:28

(thumbs up)

[blue3lf]

Aside from his newest one coming out (Ponyo) Totoro is the only one I still haven't seen and this makes me want to see it even more now :)

[HarmonicAlchemist]

this makes me want to go see the movie again

[browncoatkevin]

Fun, upbeat, and I remember being there... the air conditioner was acting on its own, it seemed, but thankfully only during this piece. As if I didn't have enough smiles from hearing such a wondrous concert, this one made my mouth hurt a bit afterwards because of oversmiling and laughing too hard - just being too happy and high off the music (a place so high, it's where the most powerful drugs cannot take anyone!).

[edo210]

BRAVO! ^^^

[runearcana2]

Playing musical instruments are the BOMB!!! ^__^

[potetmalin]

cool!

I love totoro ^^,

[underground2501]

[blackkamechan]

WAO~~!!!!! \(^0^)/

[simplyserenady]

Poor Hiroaki LOLs. Well its not as worse as my most embarassing moment on the Piano. *shivers*

[NinjaChoi]

o wow...brings memories back again =]

good old days lol

[MadCircle01]

I just saw it yesterday again, still just as good as the old days

[Honda047]

Now that's showmanship! *standing ovation!!!!*

[o0marys0o]

they're great! i'd do with with flute though :D

[EPDJ]

I never saw Totoro, but this group did great. The poor guy just could not keep the papers on the stand... though, he gained my respect for having such a good attitude after that. I am sure he was not very pleased with the air flow, but he managed to give the crowd a nice bonus laugh.

[Gytu]

lol. that was the concertmaster

[goldmagistrate]

Asian girl is cute

[HikariYami]

hehe hiroaki's music kept flying away, exactly what happened during one of my concerts

[Tokyosista]

Aww so lovely and well played. What a fantastic group of musicians here! And the guy with the flying note papers was totally funny. -^___^-

[DahliaRose]

I was there! It was so amazing. :)

[Mikkue12345]

lol that poor guy his music keeps flying off the stand. paper clips man, they work like magic

[Flaydramon]

Shoulda seen him when he came back to Australia for the next concert xP He told us bout it and was saying he was a lil skeptical bout the airconditioning. xP

[hectev2000]

:P the girl on the cello is cute

[Pullahiiri235]

Totoro is the best. Very good playing.

[holytemplar]

TOTORO IS THE GREATEST

[Gameboygenius]

Wonderful movie, and this is a wonderful interpretation of the theme music.

[stupidsh1t]

Nice... nostalgia at best! Totoro wins anyday!

[ChocoboDelight]

Hihi, it's so cute when that guy keeps dropping his notes.

[yuumeko]

;___; This is REALLY good. I would give a limb to be there. And the sound quality from this video is excellent. And ROCK ON to that violinist who kept dropping his paper... XD He still did wonderful!

[fiddelysquat]

I WAS there. It was amazing.

[Malavern]

why?? WHY??? why must i live in Hong Kong?!

*cries*

[HikariYami]

hiroaki XD!!!!!!!!!!

[waiting4wings]

Thank you so much for uploading this. I was at a Panel and missed this song...I could have died. I had an awful seat as well.

This movie has such good quality - I guess that could come from the good sound system that that room had, but still!

[squirrel568]

Thankyou :D

Very glad that I could be of service, hopefully they'll be back next year so you can see the song in person.

[jerabear]

Lol, I remember when that guy kept dropping his music.. funny.

[SpectralFire]

being at this performance made otakon for me this year

[browncoatkevin]

Word. Just... word. I agree completely. Friday and Saturday were wonderful, but Sunday? I was in heaven during the concert! I think I'm still on that high hearing the Mario Medley gave me.

[OnionRingOfDoom]

Epic win of a song! What fun it was!

[fiddelysquat]

THIS WAS MY FAVORITE BY THEM BY A LONGSHOT! I was so delighted to hear this. :D

[rotinoma]

Yes! a video of them that I don't know anyone who has posted yet!
