Æsop’s fables…
The Hare and the Tortoise
A Hare was making fun of the Tortoise one day for being so slow.
“Do you ever get anywhere?” he asked with a mocking laugh.
“Yes,” replied the Tortoise, “and I get there sooner than you think. I’ll run you a race and prove it.”
The Hare was much amused at the idea of running a race with the Tortoise, but for the fun of the thing he agreed. So the Fox, who had consented to act as judge, marked the distance and started the runners off.
The Hare was soon far out of sight, and to make the Tortoise feel very deeply how ridiculous it was for him to try a race with a Hare, he lay down beside the course to take a nap until the Tortoise should catch up.
The Tortoise meanwhile kept going slowly but steadily, and, after a time, passed the place where the Hare was sleeping. But the Hare slept on very peacefully; and when at last he did wake up, the Tortoise was near the goal. The Hare now ran his swiftest, but he could not overtake the Tortoise in time.
The race is not always to the swift.
Take that, subspace.

It is comforting. Now I'm free to be me! To be all the me I can be, without the pressure and the sorrow. But damn, that wookie looks bodacious on the drums.

Re^2: Re: The Awesomeness Of Muscular Awesomeness
Thank you. I had the same reaction as Jody. I thought maybe he was boosting power the primary1 low frequency cross-overs or something.
1 The word “primary” used just because it makes it sound more star-wars-y.

Re: Re: The Awesomeness Of Muscular Awesomeness
Now I want to identify the instruments. Solo obviously has a Gibson Flying V; though I suspect, given his character, it is really a heavily modified Epiphone. Luke’s, though hard to see for sure, seems to be a Strat; headstock and rounded body seem right. Vader has a… Steinberger? Keyboards? Yamaha and Kurzweil? Amps? Marshall? Drums—Tama and Zildjian? [Watch me pointlessly SEO the eff out of this.]

Why is Darth in the band in the first place? Now that makes NO sense!

Re: Re: The Awesomeness Of Muscular Awesomeness
Why is Darth Vader in the band? Well check him out. He's controlling everyone else in the band with the force. Luke can't fight it because he's still the "I want to go into Toshi Station for some power converters" little twerp at this point.
