Hey everyone soem people in Calgary are trying to get as many Jedi and Sith together for a huge Lightsaber battle.

Details are here

http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=5765940898

for those with no facebook

http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=17L6_qAXTzw (they did it at Burning Man a year or so ago.)

The e-mail to the organizer of the battle is

calgarylightsaberbattle@hotmail.com

If anyone is intrested we should talk about a road trip up there, it's on the 29th. It would be a good Fan Force/Rebel Legion event and the Calgary folks I'm sure are also coming out

thoughts?

O-M-G

A road trip would be awesome, and the Lightsaber battle would be that much better. What about costumes?

I would really really really try to go to this if we did that.

I think that if you havw em they can be worn but not needed, CE did something similar.

Does anybody know if the Calgary FF is taking part?

As far as I know, we have not been contacted about this.

A few of us noticed this on facebook, but have concerns regarding the organization of the event. It seems it mostly high school students, and they're saying there's 'little to no contact' involved. Not sure how they determine a winner that way??? And rules of conduct have not been posted either. As well, they have not acquired a permit for the area or have required safty personal on hand.

I'm away this weekend, but I know PreludeRM was thinking of going to hand out FF pamphlets and stuff.

I might seriously be into this.
I'm making a new lightsaber - this would be an ideal debut!

Do I smell a choreographed duel sequence coming?

I might be able to get us a sweet room to practice in... It's like a small carpeted gym.

Hmmmm....interesting. I think I'll follow this thread closely, and see what happens. I would have to take the night off work, so I'd only go if there are at least several other FanForce members (Alberta) there.

Great excuse to bust out the custom led battle-worthy lightsabers, though!!!! grin :D:D:D:D

My sentiments exactly Kris,
If I go... and you go - it would be great to see you after all these years.

It's gonna come up anyways - so I might as well say it...

We could pull off something like this in Edmonton.
Maybe indoors smewhere during the winter?

That would be great, Rob! I'd also love to see some of your machined lightsabers in person, especially the Qui-Gon!
