We Don't do Weddings
The Band's Tale
Figrin Da'n and the Modal Nodes, the bouncing Bith musicians, who are official members of the Intergalactic Federation of Musicians, were exclusively contracted to perform at Jabba's Palace. While performing, Jabba's primary competitor dispatched E522, a refurbished assassin droid, to extend an offer that was impossible to decline.
Figrin D'an refused to perform at weddings. However, Lady Valerian brought a Whipid mate from her home planet and was determined to have a lavish wedding ceremony. Due to Figrin Da'n's significant gambling debts, the sum of three thousand credits would greatly improve his financial situation. However, before the wedding cake could be served, Lady Val's bounty hunter groom took Jabba's lure, abandoned the wedding to search for Han Solo, and the celebration devolved into deadly chaos.
This unique Star Wars audio drama presentation includes a continuous and richly layered mix of environmental sounds, along with authentic Star Wars sound effects. Enhanced with John Williams' original Star Wars score and original Bith band compositions, We Don't Do Weddings offers truly extraordinary listening entertainment.
