I don't know what was funnier, watching those obnoxious kids get sonned by the adult nerds, or the vader sessions. Good morning procastination either way.
Man. That experience is so familiar to me. No Star Wars related, but the overall attitude of those "punkers".
I used to play in this experimental band. On night we opened for a punk act. Well, only punk by appearance--one of those gazillion post Dookie pop trios that got gigs cca 93.
We had about 50 people come out to see us. And when we finished everyone left. We stayed for the other band--i don't know--as a professional courtesy. The band spent a alot of time making fun of our set and talking shit about us in between songs. I Guess they thought we left with everyone else?
Anyways...After 15 minutes of that shit talking, I went up to the stage asked dude why he had to say that stuff? He said, "Because you suck!" Looked at his drummer and they laughed. I went up on stage and belted him in the chest and he flew into his amp. The bass player was coming up behind me and swung his bass. I ducked and he knocked the drummer out of his stool. Mean while I'm on top of the guitarist pummeling his face. He was so skinny and soft. I started to feel terrible, like I was kicking on old crippled dog. I got up and pushed the bass player out of my way. As soon as I got down, the bouncer came after me and as I was quickly exiting, I could hear them still TALKING SHIT FROM THE STAGE! I got to give it to them. "Punks" these days are all about fashion and attitude. And they had that down. The music sounds like bubblegum and the attitude is keep talking meaningless shit no matter what.
Embarrassed to say that I know dudes still salty about lucas' idea of having greedo shoot first.
I work on Star Wars Insider magazine and see the reader mail--salty doesn't even begin to describe how some people feel about it. If these weren't sci-fi geeks, you could bank on the fact that huge fistfights and rumbles reminiscent of the newsteam rumble in Anchorman would break out over it.
But let's face facts: Making Greedo shoot first is painfully lame.
