    I ended up volunteering for both CV and Official Pix and it's been an amazing experience. This morning I was asked to go up and see if the store needed any help. When I got up there the store was empty...except for George Lucas, Steve Sansweet and the Lucasfilm staff. He was about 8 feet away from me. Unbelievable moment for my first Celebration.

    Yeah, I have a feeling anyone get there before 7am-8am will NOT miss this.

    At C3 when I remember he was there, I got to the line around 5:30 I believe (But it was kinda raining/drizzling though which was definitely a factor)

    Today the weather is good, no rain, but there is also total of 6 big rooms to see this.

    So, unless you have to be in Chapin theater seeing him live, I sincerely doubt that all of these 6 rooms will be filled if you get there before 8am. Even way after 8am, you may still have a chance to see him in one of the other rooms.

    Seeing him live is great and all, but is it really that more important than sleep? Ha, that's the important question!

    Ok, but I suppose if you are there to social, like talking to your friends, cool strangers while waiting, it's definitely worth the experience.

    Remember the question from 'Matt in Orlando... you know who you are.' That one was mine. The one about how GL stayed positive with all the pressures surrounding him during the filming of A New Hope. I was completely shocked. I got picked!!

    I didn't notice which shirt he bought, but he did buy a case of those Hoth beer mugs.

    That was video from the main event. Do you think I'll ever get to see it again? Maybe As a special feature on the upcoming blu Ray release? Will they put out a celebration v recap DVD?
