Canary Wharf Summer Festival

On Friday night I saw the London Symphony Orchestra performing a John Williams Music Concert in the park at Canary Wharf. It started off traditionally enough - banal MC reading off his cue sheets and the orchestra opening with Superman, going through lots of Spielberg and Lucas films and finishing with the closing scene of Return of The Jedi. And then stormtroopers burst from the wings, took over the stage and Darth Vader strode out demanding that they let him conduct the Imperial March. So they did. Photos are here. Sadly, I couldn't get close enough to get a photo of Boba Fett on the cymbals at the back.
