We're not sure if Yoda will be there or not but the Star Wars Concert will come to the Bay Area.
A worldwide "Star Wars" concert tour will hyperdrive across the planet and it's landing in the Bay Area.
"Star Wars in Concert" will feature a symphony orchestra and choir performing composer John Williams' music from the six "Star Wars" films.
C-3P0 actor Anthony Daniels will narrate (won't that get annoying even for the most die hard of fans?), accompanied by a three-story-tall high-definition screen displaying movie footage synchronized to live music.
Organizers plan to take the tour in several North American cities before embarking on a global journey.
"Star Wars in Concert" will launch at the Honda Center in Anaheim, Calif., on Oct. 1, and make stops in Phoenix, Los Angeles, Sacramento; before coming to San Jose and moving on to Seattle; Portland; Tulsa, Okla.; and Oklahoma City. Other cities will be announced later.
