And don't bother looking for the CD in the park, we bought it!

Originally Posted By ABBY I have never seen them before, but got excited about them from a topic over in Trivia and Games. I was definitely planning to take in their show on my next visit. However the DL schedule does not show times for them during the time I will be there next. I wonder if that means they won't be performing

Billy Teeth & Eyebrows (otherwise known as "Elvis Billy") is my favorite. I laugh so hard at his expressions that my face hurts (worse than his looks at times! ;-)

Originally Posted By ABBY Ok, I just checked the schedule again and there are showtimes on the schedule ! YAY! How early should we get there? Is the show in a restaraunt??
Originally Posted By friendofdd Usually one half hour early will get you good seats. If I am hosting friends and take them to the show, either DW or I will go in and hold a table while the others do something else. A really crowded day may call for you to go in as soon as a show has ended and save a table. This applies if you want to get up closer to the stage, shich I recommend. It is an eating place as well, but you don't have to eat to see the show. There is a long order line before each show for the limited menu. You can go next door to the stagedoor cafe and will find shorter lines. When DW and I decide to eat there, we often get food to go from one of the other DL eateries. We usually get a salad from Plaza Inn in a to-go container and carry over there.
