This was an amazing experience. Even a non-enthusiast like my wife was really impressed. (Although the guy next to me was a member of the 501st, and during a conversation we had he noted that *his* wife was not at all supportive of his geekdom.) I really thought there would be more props around the concourse...maybe because I've seen so many at CII and CIII. Knowing Star Wars fans, I thought there would be more people in costume as well. The sound, performance, and visual display were simply awesome. The THX Deep Note, 20th Century Fox Fanfare, Main Title, Cantina Band, Luke and Leia, Duel of the Fates, and many others have never sounded better to me...the acoustics in the Indiana Pacer's basketball arena were surprisingly good. The diversity in visuals was impressive as well, and in the 2nd row we could really feel the heat from the pyros. I'm very grateful to my wife for the gift.

That's hot.

The female Cellist, second from the right, is my hero. She was the most fun to watch of any of the performers and was visibly having the most fun of anyone on stage.
