Pops Concert- Star Trek theme

We headed to Dewey's Pizza for dinner.  Fran taught Bug some new chess moves, I think I am in trouble now.  She got him to think 3 moves ahead.  But it was fun.

The Harvest moon from this morning, Huge and beautiful.

After pizza- we headed to the Pops concert.  They were playing Star Wars and Star Trek music, so of course, there were people dressed up.



We thought there were only the Storm troopers, but looking down from the second floor, we saw Jedi Knights,

Darth Maul and Storm trooper,

Some Stark Trek fans,

Bug had to get a picture with Darth Maul.  Love Bug's face, so happy and excited.

Sand People from Star Wars

The Pops on stage

Bug watching from our seat- way at the top and to the side, but we could see everything.

Including dancing R2s!!

And the not dancing Darth Maul.  The music here is the Catina music from Star Wars

Bug, watching the dancing


And in the second half, George Takei came out to narrate the Star Trek section.  His voice is wonderfully smooth.  What a wonderful night.

Live long and prosper, Mr Sulu!!
 
Bug enjoyed the music, but the concert was late for him.  We got home at almost 11 pm, way past his bed time.  But what an experience for him.  Fran taught him some classical music items while we were at the concert.  Music is one of her passions.
 
Love and hugs,
Deb
