Jedi Con - Day 3

Jedi-Con Düsseldorf - Easter 2008
[ Day 1 ]

[ Day 3 ]
Sunday, 24.03.08 * collect autographs – training – showtime - cutback

On Sunday we had to get up early. After a fast breakfast we were on the way to Düsseldorf. At 8:45 AM we could went to our stand, so the computers were booted and everything arranged. We played with the Hasbro R2 from Florian („Hey R2, Game Mode“) We didn’t have much time, because the first visitors came to our stand. So we fighted, talked and advised ;)
Of course we wanted to fetch our guaranteed autographs from the last day, so Alex, Eddy and Lukas went to Steve Sansweet to designate their bags. The “nice lightsabercarryingbags”, so called by Steve, were designated by Daniel Logan, too. Daniel Logan designated a MR Display from Tim with the sentence:”You beat me twice, know wonder I was a bounty hunter“.

At noondays we trained a last time for our performance. We discussed our distance and steps again. The rest of the time at our stand was full of excitement and more talks. The Fan-Area was closed at 15:30 and the con was ended, but the Closing Ceremony and our performance were missed! We drawed our costumes and went backstage. There we saw Robert Eiba , Steve Sansweet and more!

We were told that we should begin when the music started. We were very excited, but the most was Lukas (;)) Alex didn´t register anything under his Vader helmet and had panic, because he didn´t want to fall over his cape.
Eddy went on stage at the first notes from the first song “Rolling Fighting”! After him Tim went on stage, too and after the sabers were activated the Fight “Anatim vs. Swaktor” began. Eddy and Tim didn’t make mistakes, but then Andre went on stage and “Scoulcher vs. Anatim” began! Sadly, there was a little mistake and one part was done a second time and the music wasn’t at the correct time. But Anatim didn’t win against Scoulcher and his double-sided-lightsaber. After that Lukas entered the stage, the last chance for the glory of the Jedi, and the fight “Shelby vs. Scoulcher” began with a lot of lightsaber spinning. The fight was almost perfect and Shelby won against Scoulcher! For the first moment, everything was good, but the dark lord of the Sith, Darth Vader himself, went on the stage. He defended all attacks from two sabers and killed Shelby with a simple force choke.
The hope of the Jedi was destroyed ...

Our performance was successful, although there were a few mistakes
Robert Eiba wanted to see us on the stage again and we got a lot of applause.
We were proud of us, because our show was done well.!

After we changed our clothes into the team-outfit we went back to the Closing Ceremony to see the last five minutes and the convention was officially ended.
