The pics are really from something called Filk. It's a gathering of hardcore sci-fi nerds and geeks who make songs about sci-fi. I found these pics on the internet.
What is DAG?
DAG Production is a company founded in 1982 dedicated to the publication of Science Fiction Folk music, also known as Filk music. It is run and by Eric Gerds.
How did DAG get started?
Back in 1980 Chris Weber and myself while at the WesterCon, the west coast regional science fiction convention, discovered filk. This was the convention that the famous WesterFilk songbook was released. We soon hooked up with and started to attend the local monthly filksing. Chris wrote an amazing number of filksong over the next several months and gave copies to me. Unlike Chris, I had no musical talent to perform, and my singing could clear rooms. To give something back to the group, and to show that I did have some talent, I published Chris' songs into a book, called FAN-Tastic #1. It was released at FilkCon west (filkcon 4.1), held at the LASFA club house.
Merry Star Wars To You
Words: Jason Christoble
Tune: "Chestnuts roasting on an open fire"
Ewoks roasting on an open fire
Death Star targeting your nose
Jawas singing in a Tattooine choir
And folks dressed up like 3P0's
Everybody knows Darth Vader and the Emperor
Really can put up a fight
Rebel droids with their lights all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight
They know old Obi-wan is on his way
And he's got daddy's old light saber on his sleigh
And every storm trooper is gonna spy
To see if Jedi really know how to fly
And so I'm offering this Star Wars phrase
From Luke and Han and Chewie too (hrrronk)
Although it's been said long ago, far away...
MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU!
