than the originals.

Great tho that they recognise quality.

I am tempted to go there.

The question one must is which Amiga music will be selected for the medley, and perhaps more importantly, which tracks will open and close the performance? ;)

Cheers,

This is what I managed to find after some extensive research of the "read more" link: :-D

The medley includes:
- Alien Breed by Allister Brimble
- James Pond 2 by Richard Joseph
- Pinball Fantasies by Olof Gustafsson
- Lionheart by Matthias Steinwachs
- Lemmings by Brian Johnston and Tim Wright
- Turrican 2 by Chris Huelsbeck

Most of the last concert was bgcpc music and Nintendo music with a bit of C64 music thrown in.

I imagine this Amiga music medley will only get about 5 mins if we are lucky.
