Loiuisiana Star Wars in Concert PBS Promo spot

Postby Blackwatch » March 15th, 2010, 6:02 am

For the triumphant return of Star Wars in Concert to Louisiana and it's visit to Baton Rouge the capitol city, the Bast Alpha Garrison was invited to assist with the filming of a PBS spot to be shown during the "Making of Star Wars in Concert" program. We recieved VERY short notice on this and I was able to secure time off to head to the PBS Studios and film the spot. Good thing I keep my armor highly shined!

I will have some photos later.

the concert is tomorrow. Im hoping for a big turnout in Baton Rouge; New Orleans had several thousand people last Fall and we are hoping for the same tomorrow night. The promos have run on TV every half hour for the last two weeks and we have done several around-town promos during festivals.

Since this was my second SWIC event I had an idea of what to expect.
Unlike NOLA we were not completely swamped this time. Despite the tons of promotion and getting the word out, the crowds were just not as "crushing" Plenty of people and very high interest level.

Good show..impressive to wtach them tear all that down and move all that equpment to the trucks!
