Now this guy has class – a busking accordion player in the New York subway, wearing a Boba Fett helmet. Bounty hunting Boba Fett busker? It’s mad but true – I love it when real life throws up something wonderfully weird like this in an everyday location, it makes life that little bit more magical. I’ve seen Stormtroopers wandering the streets during the Edinburgh Festival but they weren’t doing street performances. I wonder what other Star Wars character would perform if they busked? With that deep voice could you imagine Darth Vader doing improv poetry in the street? A group of Stormtroopers line dancing? (via BoingBoing)

Reminds me of the ‘Saw Lady’ (http://www.sawlady.com/blog ) who plays the ‘Star Trek’ theme in the subway.

Michelle, thank you for that link, she’s wonderful, made me smile! And reminds me of the wonderful scene in Jeunet’s Delicatessen with the saw and cello
