This is where some of the letters get tricky (at least for me).

"Fiery" Figrin D'an and the Modal Nodes are my choice for "F".

Felucia and FX-7 were also in the running, but did not make my cut.

This band featured in Mos Eisley Cantina helps set the mood and is one of the most memorable tunes from the Saga.

They may not be the most memorable part of the Cantina when you look at the overall scene from the film. We never hear them speak or interact other than the music they play. My source is based on the films and not the Expanded Universe.

I do know they are Biths, which is so close to Siths, isn't it?

I remember one Christmas as a child when I received the Kenner Cantina Playset as a present. I was so excited and started putting it together right away. I had difficulties with assembling the doors. I remember crying (hysterically I am sure). My mom wrote a letter to Kenner and they sent a replacement door. As I built and recreated scenes from the movie, it was diappointing that I never had the Modal Nodes other than as a cardboard backdrop. Hasbro and Disney filled my wishes last year by releasing Star Wars Weekend figures of all the band members on a base that lights up and plays the song.

Though it is a faded memory, I think they may have been in the Holiday special too. YIKES

Thanks for your continued support in my blog. Hope to have your return again tomorrow for "G". No, GTE.
