All the life has been sucked out of this parade that it had for 29 years.

The question, what will they do for the taping, use the older music or the newer music...

Originally Posted By Doobie I just saw the parade (hopefully will get video up tomorrow). I heard but didn't see the first one and was not impressed with the music at all.

Originally Posted By Spirit of 74 The rumor/excuse that Disney can't use Christmas music is just that. As for the new parade music, I'd like to hear it. I, personally, felt having the exact same parade with the exact same music year after year, decade after decade was getting stale. And if Doobie says he loved it, the chances are good that it is, at the least, decent and may well be much better.

Originally Posted By -em They did add several new floats- Some that were re-used were re-charactered (ie where Snow White used to be is now Scrooge) I know there is a few more that changed but Ill need to look through pictures to see... I like the Mickey n Minnie Float with the trains on it...

Originally Posted By TDLFAN Thank God for TDL's Xmas parade. I can't wait to see what HKDL will come up with as it promises to be a blast. Not looking forward to seeing the changes to the MK parade this year after all this negative reaction. I agree the parade needed to be improved but sounds like they dropped the ball instead. That is what happens when you have no budgets to work with. Very sad indeed.
