What ever happened to just extending the park hours and adding more shows and parades? It's a nice thought though!

Pop music at Tomorrowland Terrace, and big band swing music at Plaza Gardens. Oh, and also mod DJ dance music at elecTRONica over at DCA. At WDW, they seem to get very cheesy DJ's dressed in khaki shorts and hula shirts who couldn't get a gig working a wedding reception at the I-Drive Holiday Inn. Hey gang, it's Macarena time!
