THE GALACTIC SENATE

hey guys, I just wanna share a story here...

I'm from Indonesia... and we got a lot o' SW. fans too here...

and we have this indonesian Star Wars community, we called ourselves the Jedi Council of Indonesia (JCI) ^^

and uh, well few months back, November 15th to be exact, we had a colaboration with Addie M.S,he is the conductor of Twilite Orchestra...

and we had this huge event called "Adventure to the Galaxies"

the orchestra played OST from a couple of Sci-Fi movies...
but most of them are Star Wars' songs, by J. Williams

there are exactly two sessions... with an intermission in between...

but! before the 2nd session starts, there was a lightsaber duel between a jedi (a friend of mine) and a sith (ME!!! YAAAAY!!! ^^)



see the left side of the picture?! I was... well as you all might've known, used Vader's ESB FFX while my friend used Anakin's RoTS FFX
and as you can see, above the two of us... there's 'someone' hidden under the robe... THAT is Addie M.S. the conductor... he pretended to be the sith lord, watching, ME the Sith destroyed the Jedi... YAAAAAY HOORAAAY SITH!!!

here's some pic,


The Jedi has fallen...


after the fall of the Jedi, I, the Sith, obtained the 'baton' *conductor's stick from the ground... and gave it to my 'master' (Addie M.S.)


and followed him down the stairs


and the audience didn't realise that it was HIM!


until...


VOILA!


hehehe, so, I hoped you enjoyed the short story


oh, btw, I forgot to put this... the end of the concert...


and some of our Council members


sorry for the long post ^^

Thanks for sharing, Agakin.

I had the pleasure of meeting a couple of your countrymen at the Art of Star Wars Exhibition in Singapore. They were interested in acquiring costumes but did not know who to contact in their country. Is there a website or forum that you guys and gals maintain?

Apart from Indonesia, most of the South East Asia countries have established outposts of the 501st Legion. Are there currently any fans in bad guy costumes over there?

Greetings Agakin! Welcome to the group!

Looks like you guys had lots of fun over there. I did heard about the Indonesia Jedi Council from someone while at the SW Exhibition and think saw your "Official T-Shirt". So got any website or photo albums for us to see more on the events you have over there?

Greetings and welcome, Agakin.

Hi Agakin,
Welcome and do you happen to be at the Chinatown Sq central at the Starwars.sg charity sales last month? 'Cos I reminder someone who mentioned about the Jedi Counil fan club in Indonesia. I was the guy in Jedi costume.

Hi,i'm from indonesia too still 15 y.o

btw,where is JDI ?

Welcome Agakin! Thanks for sharing this event with us.

Welcome! Good to hear of another Star Wars group in our neighbouring country.

And I do know of an amateur orchestra who intends to perform selections from the movies, including Return of the Sith

Aiyah! Revenge of the Sith or Return of the Jedi?

Man, if it really happen, am looking forward to it! I'll be there as long as my schedule allows.

Greetings Agakin and welcome to our family! That sounds like a really interesting event, would have loved to have been there to catch it!

Perhaps we should arrange a joint saber fight together with our boys here. It would make for a wonderful event along with hbng's orchestra!
