Mos Eisley Cantina Band
In Star Wars: Figrin D’an And The Modal Nodes are the group playing in the Mos Eisley Cantina when Luke and Obi-Wan turn up looking for transport.
Led by “Firey” Figrin D’an, they’re only seen briefly, but Star Wars being what it is, their story has spun off many times across the extended universe of books, comics and video games.
In Real Life: D’an and the band cause a sensation when they appear on Britain’s Got Talent.
In true Susan Boyle style, they initially cause alarm and confusion when the weirdly-headed group shows up on stage. Simon Cowell physically retches at the sight.
But once they get to playing, everyone is astonished by their ability and even Cowell stops scraping his eyes out to clap along, later describing them as “utterly amazing”.
Sadly, they end up coming second and are forced to turn to other work, including an unsuccessful pitch for advertising contracts.
Next: X-Wing
