Steve Staeger leads Colorado Symphony in 'Star Wars' performance (AKA his dreams came true)

The director of the Colorado Symphony had a sub: one Steve Staeger.
Steve Stager's dreams have come true

We recently met the Colorado Symphony conductor, who is trying to lower the average age of the butts in seats for their shows.

Brett Mitchell is in his first year as director of music, and has helped bring in new tunes - like the sounds of Star Wars or Harry Potter.

He also brought in a new face: Steve Staeger's. Steve - a super Star Wars fan - checked a major item off his bucket list Wednesday and stepped in for Mitchell. Steve conducted the orchestra as they played the famous score, and well, you just have to see it for yourself. Watch it in the video above.
