Dang, wrong franchise...

This epic meet-up went down in 1980, during Queen's tour promoting their new album The Game. I'm sure it made the part where Freddie croons "Mamaaaaaa..." during Bohemian Rhapsody that much more poignant.

Oh wait, the prequels weren't out yet. It was a simpler time.

I'm altering your playlist. Pray I don't alter it further!

The Empire Rocks Back.

Set humor to ludicrous speed!

Vinyl junkies and nerdy hip-hop heads are no doubt salivating at this awesome R2D2-styled turntable. It looks like a heavily modded Technics 1200, so it's not too out of the question to find one on Craigslist to build a C3PO counterpart.

Darth Vader playing the violin is 100x better than watching The Phantom Menace in 3D, amirite?

If you're ever in Victoria, show this man some love!

He could have won accolades based solely on the Star Wars reference and lame puns about guitarbonite, but Travis Stevens carried through and crafted a polished-looking guitar mod shaped like Han Solo's carbonite prison. Would Solo mind that you're fingering his genital area even if he's trapped in hibernation?

Oh, and the current owner of that guitar is Tom Moody, the co-founder of Evanescence. So there's that.
