Cantina Band
Our Mos' Favorite Band Fun as it is, occasionally, we have to escape ThinkGeek World Domination HQ. So late one afternoon we all took a break and headed down to a local Mexican tavern for margaritas ("And I said no salt, NO salt on the margarita, but it had salt on it, big grains of salt..."). We're sitting there, talking about the latest beer-delivery robots and how popular a caffeinated tequila would be, when the house band kicks off their set. To say it was an odd experience would be a vast understatement. You sort of expect the band to come with a guitar. Or a vocalist. Or if it's in a cantina, a violin or an accordion for the Mariachi of it all. At the very least, there'd definitely be a stringed instrument involved. No such luck. These guys were 100% woodwinds. A bassoon, an oboe... we're not sure what all was in the mix. But it sounded surprisingly great together, as they played their upbeat tunes. We were told by some regulars that they come out with new tunes every week.

Figrin D'an 'Modal Nodes' Jazz Band T-Shirt After years of watching the Star Wars movies, we've come to the conclusion that the Cantina Band is the coolest part of these sci fi films. So we had to make a nondescript Figrin D'an and the Modal Nodes shirt, with no Star Wars movie logos or Luke Skywalker references... just the Cantina band as seen in Chalmun's on Tatooine. Can you say totally 'effin rad?!? Yeah, we thought so... Anyway, for a little back story on this Galactic funk band... Figrin D'an is from Bith, he plays Jizz music and is a member of the Intergalactic Federation of Musicians (IFM). We all may have blind love for these guys, but there's always a dark side to the fame and fortune... Figrin D'an is a Glitterstim addict (it's really a shame), on top of that he's a compulsive gambler, preferring the seductions of the Sabacc tables over other casino highlights (it's a losers game). It's not all his fault though, none of them knew what they were getting into when Jabba the Humale, female - adult$12.99 -
