I wouldnt call nobuo uematsu -- the guy who did ff series a great keyboardist or pianist, i would call him a great composer .. if u've seen him live in the black mages band ( nobuo's band playing ff music rock ), u'll notice his skills are good, but not great, there are many people better than him in playing ( technically ) , but im his true fan/idol , cause his composing just roxx me and i aspire the next him =p..

 

[mingguan]

.. if u've seen him live in the black mages band ( nobuo's band playing ff music rock ),.

where to see?
never aware of any VCD/DVD release of his concert.
