Star Wars in Concert at the Honda center

Once I heard about this at Comic Con --I knew I was going....So I dragged Kim along for a night of Fun.....

It is no secret that I'm a big Star Wars fan and a huge fan of John Williams....(Star Wars , Indy--Everything Spielberg) He is by far my favorite Movie composer (with Elfman my second favorite) ... So the chance to hear music from the entire Star Wars series live with narration by Anthony Daniels (C-3PO) with Visuals from the films.....I Wasn't going to miss out...

Seriously check it out when it is in your town
Star Wars: In Concert
 
In additional to the concert there was some cool exhibits with props and costumes from the films
Kids posing with backgrounds


"To the concert I must go"

 
The visuals were stunning….The narration entertaining and the music was incredible
Here Anthony Daniels starts things off

A Glimpse at the show

Rise Lord Vader

Lasers and fire effects enhanced the experience

 
Like I said before absolutely stunning visuals

I thought about going to see this. I'm also a huge Star Wars and John Williams fan. I saw Anthony Daniels at Disneyland during the grand opening of Star Tours. Great pictures ... Thanks for sharing.

Re: Star Wars in Concert at the Honda center

I went too, and it was awesome! I've always held V, VI, VII as The Trilogy, The Story, and kind of blew off I, II, and III as "extra" somehow, so it was very cool to see it all at once like that and get the big picture. It was a good perspective change for me.

I was shocked when I found out how much our tickets were, but by the time I left, I didn't care anymore. Anthony Daniels was fantastic, so it was totally worth it.

Re: Star Wars in Concert at the Honda center

I so wanted to see this... We evern got Discounted tickets from work... but I sadly spent my money on driving out to Haunt instead... Oh well... I love Star Wars a lot... like seriously... A LOT! I would be all giddy with excitement the second the main Star Wars theme starts!

Yes, the worms and scorpion are real and covered in chocolate! Come to find out that scorpions minty alcohol taste was actually venom... And dont get me started on the Habanero... Was it all worth it? You bet it was!

Re: Star Wars in Concert at the Honda center

Everyone who went was so lucky, I so badly wanted to go. I love Star Wars, all of the films are my favorite movies and have seen them hundreds of times. I was thinking about getting tickets but couldn't get the money in time. Thanks to everyone who went for sharing these amazing pictures, looks like you all had some fun.

Re: Star Wars in Concert at the Honda center

I really wanted to go but was not able to do so. I am so bummed!

Though personally I would really preferred if they performed this in Disney Hall or Segerstrom Hall, which are much more superior acoustically than in an arena.

But regardless as to where, I wish I would have gone!

Re: Star Wars in Concert at the Honda center

the show looks awesome! I'd love to be able to see all the movie costumes and propwork in person. Though I can't bring myself to pay the amount for the tickets (if it was John Williams himself conducting the Boston Pops, then yes). Bet it was still awesome to hear all the themes being performed live though!
