ATTENTION ALL STARWARS FANS
Star Wars in Concert is happening!! and it's gonna be in Nashville on December 13! What is Star Wars in Concert you may ask well let me tell you
Fortunately not dressed like this guy ( I like the use of my arms thank you very much)
Seats start at 32.50 and go all the way to 300 (for a super special vip seat and some swag I bet)
So padawans, jedi, and sith I'll see you there
Star Wars: In Concert, a unique multi-media event featuring music and scenes from all six of John Williams' epic Star Wars scores!
It's narrated live by Anthony Daniels (the actor who portrayed C-3PO in all six films), the production features a full symphony orchestra and choir, accompanied by specially edited footage from the films displayed on a three-story-tall, high-definition LED super-screen -- one of the largest ever put on tour. The live music and film elements are synchronized in order to create a full multi-media, one-of-kind Star Wars experience.
And if that isn't enough to get your tail into gear and your lightsaber going, then check this bit out!
Accompanying the concert is an exclusive exhibit of Star Wars costumes, props, artifacts, production artwork and specially created behind-the-scenes videos from the Lucasfilm Archives. Many of these pieces are leaving Skywalker Ranch for the first time. The exhibit features many classic fan favorite artifacts, as well as several new and never-before-seen items, including:
- Full costumes for Jedi Masters Kit Fisto and Plo Koon will be on display.
- For the first time ever, pages from John Williams' original hand-written sheet music for Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace will be exhibited for the public.
- Also on display will be various never-before-seen props from the films, including blasters and helmets from Coruscant, Tatooine and other iconic Star Wars locations.

Halloween Post, only obnoxiously late
Ok well, Halloween wasn't all to exciting for us, just a little bit of magic, a little bit of haunted house fail, and a lot of random happenstance
but dear reader what I want to talk about is the Day of the Dead, no not November 1.... but the A.C.T Day of the Dead party.
Don't know what that is? well I didn't either till a few weeks ago
So it's a party (duh) where you dress up as someone or something dead
sounds easy right? there are lots of dead people and things so...? Nope, no go... gotta be witty/cool/ not dull/whatever....
So Kim and I took about a week to think about it, we tossed out idea's from disney villans to Star Wars characters to Bambi's Mom (which as some of you know Kim's father went with it and made a truly adorable AND traumatizing head piece for).
Finally one night just as I was about to cross the border between dreams and conciousness, it came to me! my costume! I was gonna be..... a Red Shirt!
with that settled I printed out a starfleet insignia and picked up a red turtleneck, then viola! Ensign Debra reporting for duty!
but enough about that I want to talk about the costumes I saw there! because really no one does costumes and creative like theatre people
so I'm just gonna list what I remeber and Aria or Kim can come in and add/ correct
Kim was Bambi's mom as I said
Aria was dinosaur
Debra was a redshirt (but not the only one! I had a brother in arms)
hmm, what else was there
a Peter Pan with fantastic makeup
a sorority gal ( I don't know which sorority... sorry)
a "dead" kennedy (not the band but a pun on ted, I think)
a Billy Mayes complete with oxyclean shirt
a Marylin Monroe
a V
a Johnny Cash
a G-d with one heck of a beard (who everyone kept asking "are you Dumbledore?)
Kanye West's career
a Severus Snape
a flapper
a dead mother earth (and recardo the raven)
a Dr. George O'Mally complete with prescriptions
a punk Betty Page
a Natasha Richards in full ski gear
a Heath Ledger (straight from Brokeback Mountain, shirt and all)
a Robin (Jason Todd, I think... but it could have been metaphorical for Dick or Tim I suppose)
a Blues Brother John Belushi
There were a few I didn't get but we're still fun costumes
a ninja (I don't understand the dead part of this one... maybe the art of ninja? death of stealth? take off the mask and it can be death of anonymity? Did the ninja lose to a pirate? dunno... guess he just wanted to be a ninja, which is understandable because well ninjas rock)
a Yankee ( though with their recent win I don't understand)
a Pillsbury Dough boy
a Quail man (who remembers Doug! Kim and I for sure do!)
I'm gonna get some pictures up later to make this post better, but for now readers
Peace Out!

Helllooooooooooo Readers
Hello all of our readers!!!!
How was your Halloween? Was it awesome, was it drunken, was it riotous? If you got a story to tell and pictures to go with it send them in and we'll post them up!!!
In fact if you ever just feel the need to be nerdy and share the nerd love/ a story, just send us an email (GirlsDigComicsToo@gmail.com) or you can find some other way to contact us, there are many.
And have no fear dear readers I am working on a blog telling all of Aria and my Halloween (and day of the dead) adventures! (complete with pictures of a knight playing magic with a dinosaur)
Also soon I will have tales of Dungeons and Dragons for the first time (won't some of my friend be happy I've caved after all these years)

To all my Knoxvillans, beware big green mothers from outerspace!
I know dear reader it had been a long time since anything other than pictures of the week have gone up, but I promise by the end of tomorrow Aria and I will have something up about Halloween, nerdy things, and guess what! more Halloween (because I do love it so!)
But this here is to mention a wonderful show to any and all theatre loving Knoxvillans!
Little Shop of Horrors put on by the University in the Carousel was fantastic!
Aria and I saw it on preview night so there were probably some final kinks being fixed but it still was a gem of a show. The actors all did a wonderful job. The tech crew all did a wonderful job (and made one hell of a super set). Heck I even loved the staging of it all.
So go see it, it's worth the money ($5-10 I think) (you can check times,dates,and tickets here)
Congrats to everyone who worked on the show and/or are in it!
ta darlings,
Debra
P.S and remember- Please don't feed the plant!
or date dentists >.>

Picture of the Week
can anyone tell me what this is from???Sorry I've been absent dear readers, but I had a killer paper due! But it is all past and I am back, soon I will post a blog about the show Dollhouse because while the first season was great, fantastic, and super awesome.... the first episode of season two is looking to be even better!
So I'll post about that soon, and probably a bliog about the new Gotham City Sirens and this cool Grim's Fairy Tale: Little Mermaid I've been reading.
That's all for now folks
Debra
