Originally Posted By leobloom Agree this isn't going to happen. It probably gets Aerosmith more publicity than anything else these days.

It's not a very exciting track layout, the ride's too short, and the black-light cardboard cut-outs are pretty lame, too. I guess they can't all be Towers of Terror. Anybody know how WDSP's versions compares? I know the ride's visuals are more like a light show, but is that better or worse than MGM's?

Originally Posted By itsme Well considering that the Jonas Bros have less people in their band then Aerosmith does, it would make sense in keeping with Disney cutting back on everything.

Originally Posted By TMICHAEL To answer the question, YES, RNRC can change. The real question WILL it change? And like everyone else so far I am sure hoping NOT! At least not with the Jonas Bro's. I mean really, Its ROCKnROLLer Coaster not pop-fad soon to fade away Coaster.
Originally Posted By Sport Goofy OK. The Jonas Brothers don't need to have RNRC changed in their honor. But, what if they figured out a way to modify RNRC to incorporate visiting musicians and groups throughout the year. For example, say Disney set up a concert series at the park and as part of the promotion the bands would perform for a few hours at the attraction as though they were the marquee name? Once the bands were gone, the attraction could revert back to the standard Aerosmith theme. I think that might be an interesting way to keep the attraction fresh, give musical acts some unique PR, and liven up the atmosphere in that part of the Studios. Just an idea . . .

Originally Posted By Disfn74 I hope not. Aerosmith is one of those bands that just reach all ages not just the tween hot market. I think that it will still continue to be Aerosmith for years to come.
Originally Posted By utahjosh I always thought the JoBros were a marketing-machine product that would quickly fade away. Then I saw them perfom live. These guys are quite talented (especially Nick, and Joe was even better than I expected.) That said, I hope Aerosmith isn't replaced by them - however I do like Sport Goofy's idea.

Originally Posted By Disfn74 I agree they are talented guys, Their last cd is one of the few on my Mp3 that I have the whole cd of. I think Sport Goofy's idea is great also.
