HAPPY HOLIDAYS FROM VIDEO GAMES LIVE!
The VGL team would like to wish everyone a very safe and happy holiday season. We are so thankful and appreciative for all of the support we have received over the years. 2008 was our most successful year yet! 47 shows around the world, the debut of our first album, inclusion into the Guinness Book of World Records and all of the absolutely fantastic people and friends we've met along the way. Our plans for 2009 are even BIGGER and we're currently planning between 50 - 60 shows worldwide. We're working on a bunch of new segments for 2009 and we hope to be seeing you all again real soon!
