Star Wars in Concert Memories
Two years ago next month I was in attendance for Star Wars in Concert at the Dunkin Donuts Center in Providence, RI. It was such a fun event!
Prior to the show we were able to view costumes, art work and other items straight from the Lucasfilm vault. That in itself was worth the price of admission. Plus, I had the chance to meet some of the members of the New England 501st and Rebel Legion. It was the first time I was able to get a first hand look at their costumes.
The members I spoke to put in such time and effort into their costumes. They really looked like they came straight from the movies! And more importantly, they do a lot of charity work and make frequent visits to children hospitals to brighten the day of many ill children.
The concert was just magnificent. A full symphony orchestra, lighting and laser effects and the enormous screen in the background with scenes from all six movies made for a fantastic experience. Plus, Antony Daniels who played C-3PO narrated the concert. The crowd in attendance was great too. It was so much fun being around a crowd of people who also share the enjoyment of Star Wars.
I have reopened the Jundland Wastes Treasure Chest again and have some pics from that night. Do you have any pics from a Star Wars in Concert experience? Send them to us and we'll add them to the treasure chest. We'll also make special mention of it on the next podcast! Keep checking back here for more pics from the concert.
Stay tuned for more blog updates and podcasts! Keep traveling the Jundland Wastes with us!

Jundland Wastes Treasure Chest
Remember back in Star Wars: A New Hope (Ep 4) when Obi Wan opens the wooden chest in his home and takes out the lightsaber "that Luke's father wanted him to have when he was old enough"? I always wondered what else did Obi Wan keep in that wooden chest. I am sure we all have some ideas. I think some ideas were presented in the Life and Legend of Obi Wan Kenobi by Ryder Windham but we never really see what else he kept in that chest.
So while we may never know what Obi Wan kept in that chest, I want to show you some of the treasures that are in the Jundland Wastes Podcast treasure chest. Yes, it's true...the TJW Podcast has a small treasure chest that is safely hidden away in the Jundland Wastes. Hopefully all Tusken Raiders and Jawas will never find this secret location in the sands of Tatooine. But for our faithful listeners I thought it would be fun to show you some of my finds for the TJW Treasure Chest.
Today are some autographs that I have had the good fortune of receiving through the mail or at a convention. Let us know what you think!
Amy Allen who played Jedi Master Aayla Secura
Catherine Taber who voices Padme Amidala in The Clone Wars
David Prowse who IS Darth Vader
Jeremy B who plays the awesome Boba Fett
James Earl Jones who voiced the greatest villain of all time...Darth Vader!
Jake Lloyd who played young Anakin Skywalker in Episode 1.
Peter Mayhew as the mighty Chewbacca!
Carrie Fisher as the first lady of the Star Wars universe Princess Leia Organa
Pete Sumner as the Imperial Officer who kept saying, "TK421 do you copy??" in Ep 4.
Shannon McRandle who plays Luke's lovely red headed Jedi wife Mara Jade!
Tom Kane who voices the wisest of all...Jedi Master Yoda
Orli Shoshan who plays Jedi Master Shaak-Ti. She signed this autograph in Hebrew!
More treasures to be unveiled soon! Have any treasures you want to share with us? Send us an email and attach a pic. We'll post it on future posts and mention it on the next podcast!
All the best fellow travelers of the Jundland Wastes!
