I don't remember either but they did play somewhere else in Orlando fairly recently. Yup, might have to go out there and check them out! I know I've got their "Exposure" CD somewhere packed away.

oh look Disney has "washed up" acts ok maybe a few are not but come on when was the last time you heard a "new" song from most of these on the radio? Disney did this with PI NYE and charged a lot of money! this doesn't make me want to go to and Disney park for this!
i know that Islands of Adventure cheap entertainment both parks just don't want to pay top dollar but come on how LAME!
heck i will not go because of this!

Not all that much different than what Universal delivers. At least this group is more than just tribute bands.

Think of these as Gen X nostalgia, to compliment the Boomer nostalgia that is the Flower Power series.

Honestly, the main purpose of these concerts is to get APs into the park during the slow season, and speaking for myself and my local Orlando friends, it works pretty well. I'll be sure to catch 4 or 5 of those shows, and probably grab a few drinks and/or a Napoleon before or after

71 I am sorry to hear this!

71 is correct. It's a great time to go to the parks because you can literally walk on to most of the rides. Anything to get bodies into the park.
