Looks like ol' Fett did escape from the Sarlacc Pit after all, but not without suffering some professional damage. Now the famed bounty hunter has been reduced to playing the accordion in New York City subways stations. But don't feel too sorry for him -- he's still badass enough to be playing a Legend of Zelda piece, meaning he's neither lost his sense of style or sense of humor. Thanks to everyone who sent this video in.

Awesome. I once saw a Darth Vader/Spock duo playing in a train station, I gave them a fiver (the costumes kind of sucked so I think they needed it).

I love how so many of the New Yorkers are just totally unfazed.

Being a New Yorker, if I had seen / heard this, I definitely would've put a dollar in the pot.
pumpkinguts replied to GCJ:
Yeah I just see Marachi bands, and those annoying kids that break dance in the middle of rush hour F train. What station is that btw?
GCJ replied to pumpkinguts:
Not 100% sure, but it's on the L line somewhere (you can see the screens that tell you how long it is until a train comes).
Adam said:
Umm...aside from the costume choice, the fact that he's playing (if I remember correctly) the Windmill song from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is at least worth a strong $10

I thought it was one of the themes from Chrono Trigger... I'll have to go back and listen to them all again.

Interesting that this shows up the same day as this poster is revealed:

Did anyone else notice what he was playing. That is the song from Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.

Who knew Boba had so many "skills"?
Oh, and one more thing: if you take videos with your stupid iPhone in the vertical position, then congratulations -- you are officially an idiot.

guess Boba wound up running out of his royalties from all the merch from the clone wars and fims so he decided to make some extra cash. weird al should recruit him for his band.

That's the Bedford Ave. stop on the L train. First stop in Brooklyn, used to be hipsterville but now they're all priced out.

It's good to see that Boba Fett has at least gotten past his incident with the Sarlac. Sure he's not pulling a great living, but at least it's an honest one.

Boba Fett playing the Song of Storms on an accordion... /nerdgasm
That's worth at least $10 right there!

Saw him in washington square park back in november... totally made my day!

Man, I've talked to this guy and he is SUPER nice. He travels all around Manhattan and plays in Union Square a lot too. He has a Twitter called RenegadeAccordion where he posts all the places he's going to be playing. :]

Spiderman plays the sitar on the main street of Key West. Duvall St, I think.

Funny enough, in the Star Wars canon, Fett DOES get out of the Sarlac pit alive. Fun facts for all!
