I bet you're wrong, but... So? The point of language is to communicate. And if the term he used communicated what he meant to most, then it's the right term. "A 30 year career in theater and no one has ever heard of you.. I'm sure it's quite illustrious." This is what you're resorting to? Seriously? It was pretty sad (originally) as a grammar flame. now, you're just digging yourself deeper.

Each complete performance has been in exactly the same sequence order, the same length, and with the same music cues. No sign of Tinker Bell, Alice in Wonderland, or Little Squirt. Just noting...

Originally Posted By xrayvision Yes, Night on Bald Mountain is in the test run videos, between Pirates of the Caribbean and Hunchback's Hellfire. It's the scenes with the red and yellow lights and fire.

Someone on MiceChat started that rumor in one of the WoC Threads, it's not true at all.
