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!
