Jawa Horde Banner

DragonCon 2024

For the DragonCon 2024 parade the Great Jawa Horde took inspiration from the 60's and 70's. Our sandcrawler sported groovy side art and a disco ball while the Jawas had tie-dyed vests and lots of big flowers! If you attended the parade, you might have noticed the sandcrawler blasting some very 1970's era music that sounded kind of like the Star Wars theme, but wasn't quite right. That was Meco's "Star Wars and Other Galactic Funk", and there's an interesting story behind it on Wikipedia...

Here's the parade coverage from local Atlanta TV queued up to the Great Jawa Horde appearance (sadly, one of the announcers called us Ewoks! The horror!):

And here's the official DragonConTV version (also queued to the Jawas).

Here's a nice fan video of our Jawas and the sandcrawler:

This is a nice clip of Annie, the DragonCon Parade Director, talking about the Jawas and our Sandcrawler:
