Months ago, Shawn and I heard about a show that would be touring the country. Star Wars: In Concert. It would be a symphony orchestra performing the works of John Williams from all 6 Star Wars movies, with video screen showing movie moments and a light show. We checked the website regularly to see when and if it would be coming to Chicago. Finally, a couple of months ago we saw a Star Wars special on PBS and they were selling tickets to the Chicago concert at the United Center! Part of the money was a donation to the local PBS station, but they would surely be good seats and we also would get in early to the exhibition of Star Wars props that would be touring with the show. The show was last night, and it was AWESOME! For those of you in Indiana, it will be in Indianapolis next Saturday (December 12th). Go if you are a Star Wars fan at all. It was so good! The music and chior were wonderful, the screen was huge (so there won't be a bad seat in the place), the light show was cool, and the evening was hosted by Anthony Daniels (who plays C3PO in ALL the Star Wars movies - even currently in the animated series The Clone Wars). I can't even describe how cool it was. You'll just have to go see for yourself, or wait until they release it on DVD next year.
Of course, Shawn had to buy a poster. Another one. Now the guest room will have NO free wall space!
