21:17:56 [BetsyAnn] There she is! :D

21:18:10 [BetsyAnn] I knew you were coming Pam! :D

21:18:26 [DisneyPam] mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa....work just got nutty tonite...

21:18:53 [BetsyAnn] no problem Pam -- work is like that just about everywhere!

21:19:02 [MargaretJ] Been kind of yucky lately. 40's & rainy overcast.

21:19:28 [DisneyPam] So how did you want to start, Ms. BetsyAnn??

21:19:33 [BetsyAnn] So is it warm in Orlando, Pam?

21:20:06 [alikat] Hello everyone :)

21:20:15 [BetsyAnn] Hey Alikat!

21:20:15 [disneylove] hi alikat how is school going

21:20:25 [alikat] school is going very very well!

21:20:50 [alikat] thank you for asking

21:22:08 [BetsyAnn] You have a Broadway ticket, only you get to see not one but dozens of Sit Down and Get Lazy productions at WDW. Let's take a park by park view of all that is available.

21:22:19 [disneylove] thump thump thump goes the dryer as DD leaces finger nail cutters in it

21:22:21 [BetsyAnn] DisneyPam is going to lead us!

21:22:35 [BetsyAnn] Welcome everyone...

21:23:09 [DisneyPam] Lets start in the original park...and the one, oddly enough, with the least amount of true theatrical type productions...the Magic Kingdom.

21:23:58 [disneylove] I remember hoop de view when you could see it and eat lunch.Greaat show

21:24:00 [DisneyPam] But that doesn't mean we don't have any live entertainment in the MK...there's lots, something for everyone. Who has some favorites? Remember, we're talking live action shows and entertainment

21:24:13 [BetsyAnn] http://disneyworld.disney.go.com/wdw/parks/parkListing?id=MKEntertainmentListingPage Magic Kingdom entertainment page

21:24:55 [BetsyAnn] Would Goofy's new show count?

21:25:29 [MargaretJ] I love the Barber Shop Quartet

21:25:55 [BetsyAnn] Me, too - MJ and the piano player

21:26:14 [DisneyPam] Yep....Goofy's new show counts...thats a great one for the kids...not so lazy and relaxing though, lol...they expect you to join in the dancing! :)

21:26:24 [disneylove] in all the times we have been I have never seen the baber shop guys

21:26:53 [alikat] Although it's a "special" thing, all the shows at MVMCP are fantastic!

21:27:08 [MargaretJ] Matt got a haircut once & they were there & then later we saw them on Main Street. They waved at Matt & said hello to him. He loved it

21:27:12 [DisneyPam] The Dapper Dans are wonderful...lovely singing. Lots of fun.

21:27:14 [BetsyAnn] The show in front of the castle - but not very many comfy seats there though -- ;)

21:27:34 [BetsyAnn] I agree alikat -- nice shows there then

21:28:05 [MargaretJ] One of my favorite things is to watch the bands/dance shows they have on that little stage in Tomorrowlan.

21:28:18 [DisneyPam] I've not seen the Cindy show b/c I just don't want to deal with waiting around in the sun, lol.

21:28:59 [DisneyPam] That is fun MJ....and MK is really the place for the bands and dancers from all over the country during the Magic Music Days events.

21:28:59 [disneylove] we like eating at Caseys and listening to the piano man

21:29:27 [BetsyAnn] That is a good play MJ -- I agree Pam - I sat and watched from in front of CP -- just because I could sit down there

21:29:39 [BetsyAnn] a favorite of mine too disneylove

21:30:22 [alikat] i did that once (Magic Music Days). We performed in Epcot... in July... outside... in the sun

21:31:09 [MargaretJ] I hate when those kids are up there performing their hearts out in the hot weather & not many people stop.

21:31:24 [BetsyAnn] That would be really hot - alikat!

21:31:37 [DisneyPam] and speaking of Epcot...anyone want to contribute to the MK shows before we move on to Epcot - the center of live entertainment at WDW?

21:31:58 [alikat] It was, BetsyAnn! In the sun it was 107

21:32:08 [BetsyAnn] Iknow it is not a live performance but Mickey's Phil!

21:32:32 [disneylove] voices of liberty


21:32:54 [MargaretJ] Oh Epcot my favorite!

21:33:15 [BetsyAnn] Epcot - great place for entertainment

21:33:27 [BetsyAnn] http://disneyworld.disney.go.com/wdw/parks/parkListing?id=EPEntertainmentListingPage Epcot Entertainment page

21:33:29 [alikat] Definately!

21:33:54 [DisneyPam] Well...it looks like disneylove caught the earlier monorail to Epcot and got to the American Adventure before us, lol...but although it doesn't have theatrical type shows, Epcot has IMO the very best live entertainment in the World.

21:34:34 [MargaretJ] Off Kilter - awesome

21:34:38 [DisneyPam] and the Voices of Liberty top my personal list for great entertainment.

21:35:13 [disneylove] sorry DP and here I am a lazy butt making like camando(sp)

21:35:25 [BetsyAnn] lol

21:36:03 [alikat] we saw Off Kilter for the first time in December... and wondered why we hadn't see it earlier!!!1

21:36:06 [BetsyAnn] So many live performers in World Showcase and such diversity

21:36:07 [DisneyPam] In FW there are the the Jammitors and Kristos for some cool entertainment...but most of the best is over in WS.

21:36:23 [DisneyPam] no worries, DL...its all good...

21:37:40 [alikat] A Chair Act in France... always fun to watch!

21:37:43 [MargaretJ] One of my favorite things is to get Fish & Chips from UK stand & then listen to British Invasion in the garden.

21:37:51 [BetsyAnn] It adds so much to Epcot - all the live performaners -- they lead to lazy butt touring - you just have to stop and listen and look!

21:38:02 [MargaretJ] Are they not amazing alikat?

21:38:10 [BetsyAnn] I agree Alikat - we loved that one in Dec

21:38:31 [alikat] we love to eat lunch at Chefs with a window table and watch the show

21:38:35 [DisneyPam] Another favorite of mine are the World Showcase Players...same silly show, different silly audience...always fun

21:38:49 [disneylove] acrobats

21:38:55 [MargaretJ] I do love them too Pam.

21:39:03 [alikat] All the Christmas storytellers at Christmas

21:39:18 [MargaretJ] One of my favorite things is the Statues in Italy.

21:39:19 [alikat] Miyoki and her candy making in Japan, too!

21:39:49 [DisneyPam] oh yes...Miyuki is awesome...such a sweet woman.

21:39:50 [BetsyAnn] I don't think I have seen that one Pam

21:39:55 [disneylove] geez I guess in Dec I'm going too have too stop and watch all of this

21:40:09 [MargaretJ] Oh alikat 2 of my favorite things. One of these days I will get a candy sculpture & the Storytellers are wonderful.

21:40:50 [alikat] I got a parrot the first time I ever say Miyuki--it was amazing! And during christmas she put wreaths with some of the animals, too

21:41:02 [DisneyPam] MJ....the best time as an adult to try to get a candy is the first show of the day...get there early, before lots of people gather and she'll usually pick you for one of her creations. The scorpion is very cool.

21:41:08 [MargaretJ] It is so fun to hear about how the different countries celebrate the holidays.

21:41:26 [BetsyAnn] I just saw the end of her candy making one time

21:42:04 [BetsyAnn] Welcome Moley

21:42:11 [MargaretJ] I always end up feeling guilty if there are kids around. This summer we went with my friends & she got one for all 3 of her kids - none for Matt though. He did not want to stand in hot sun.

21:42:21 [MargaretJ] Hi Moley

21:42:23 [DisneyPam] Another favorite of mine is Alberta Bound....as you can probably tell by the name, they play folk type music from Canadian artists like Gordon Lightfoot and Anne Murray.

21:42:26 [disneylove] hi moley

21:42:27 [BetsyAnn] We are in Epcot - talking Life entertainment

21:42:38 [alikat] She's really good about picking people for the candy--she usually doesn't pick the obnoxious bratty kids and often goes by who was there first

21:42:48 [Moley] That sounds good,Pammy.

21:42:50 [alikat] at least in my expereience

21:43:08 [DisneyPam] mj - thats why you go for the first show b4 ppl with kids get there. She does try to go by who was waiting longest.

21:43:19 [Moley] Good way to choose, Alikat.

21:43:23 [BetsyAnn] I would love that show Pam

21:43:58 [alikat] The bellydancing in Marrakesh in Morrocco is really neat

21:44:01 [MargaretJ] I will get one this next trip. I stayed after a show once & talked to her. Told her I saw her on Oprah one year, she is so darn cute.

21:44:07 [DisneyPam] We've also left out American Vybe at AA...they're fabulous...plus, on a hot day, the marble floor in the rotunda is a lovely and cool respite from the heat.

21:44:34 [BetsyAnn] Yes they are very good. Pam

21:44:47 [disneylove] candlelight has got to be one of my favorite things to watch and listen too

21:45:00 [MargaretJ] My favorite thing to do is the Flower Power Concerts. I love them! I was a little young for most - disco girl here, but just love the concerts.

21:45:59 [DisneyPam] AGT does have a great lineup most of the time. Lord of the Dance, Blast, the FLower Power concert series, Eat to the Beat....wonderful entertainment...

21:46:09 [DisneyPam] And of course Candlelight at Christmas.

21:46:24 [BetsyAnn] What is Eat to the Beat?

21:46:39 [MargaretJ] Lord of the Dance was wonderful, my son acted like he was being tortured though.

21:46:57 [BetsyAnn] Candlelight Processional is wonderful!

21:47:16 [Moley] Eat to the Beat is like a CP pkg.

21:47:26 [DisneyPam] Eat to the Beat is the concert series during F&W, BetsyAnn. Acts have included Chubby Checker, Sister Sledge, Little Anthony and the Imperials, The Fifth Dimension (who were AWESOME)

21:47:37 [Moley] It is offered in the Food and Wine Festival weeks.

21:47:53 [MargaretJ] I can not remember the name of the group in Africa section, but they are very good.

21:47:59 [BetsyAnn] Well, I might have to give up Dec one of these years for the Food and Wine Festivial

21:48:01 [DisneyPam] Yes...if you attend a Party for the Senses, you get VIP seating for the Eat to the Beat concert before the dinner starts.

21:48:12 [Moley] Well known stars of yesteryear are featured players during weeks of the festival. You can get special viewing with a dinner pkg.

21:48:59 [Moley] We really felt the Food and Wine Festival this last time was well worth giving up our December trip for.

21:49:34 [BetsyAnn] I just love WDW in Dec - but I am thinking maybe one of these years

21:49:36 [DisneyPam] <side note> in the fall I was at CSR and saw a group just arriving in vans from the airport...the looked familiar but couldn't figure it out for a minute and then realised it was the Fifth Dimiension...stopped one of the members and told him how much I had enjoyed their performances the year b4

21:49:58 [Moley] How cool, Pammy!

21:50:07 [BetsyAnn] very cool Pam!

21:50:29 [BetsyAnn] 8)

21:50:44 [DisneyPam] it was cool...he seemed pleased to hear it from a person of my generation, lol.

21:50:49 [MargaretJ] Wow cool Pammy

21:51:32 [DisneyPam] Anyway....my goodness...we could really go on and on in Epcot...there is just so much to enjoy, from the live entertainment front...what do you say to hopping on a Friendship boat and heading to MGM - home of spectacular stage shows??

21:52:00 [BetsyAnn] My WDW Park - DisneyStudios/MGM!

21:52:03 [BetsyAnn] :D

21:52:14 [Moley] Let's go!

21:52:20 [disneylove] Beauty and the Beast

21:52:26 [BetsyAnn] http://disneyworld.disney.go.com/wdw/parks/parkListing?id=MGMEntertainmentListingPage Disney MGM Studio Entertainment page

21:53:03 [disneylove] it is so cool the way the move people from behind a piece of cloth

21:53:12 [DisneyPam] Unfortunately, budget cutbacks have closed some shows...but there are still great shows to be seen....

21:53:34 [BetsyAnn] B& B is a good show!

21:53:37 [DisneyPam] Beauty and the Beast is wonderful, but honestly, I go just to see the preshow act, Four for a Dollar. They're wonderful.

21:53:47 [BetsyAnn] My heart will always be with Hunchback!

21:54:01 [Moley] Hunchback was the best of all.

21:54:05 [alikat] time to go do some homework... have a good night everyone!

21:54:16 [DisneyPam] Mine too, BetsyAnn.

21:54:24 [BetsyAnn] good night Alikat!

21:54:29 [Moley] Bye alikat, too late.

21:54:47 [BetsyAnn] which is really funny - because it is not one of my favorite Disney movies

21:55:13 [disneylove] ya know we never got too see the..butcher spelling here..Pochauntes show

21:55:18 [BetsyAnn] The other thing about MGM - is the street performers and the other shows like Mermaid, Indy and maybe Millionaire

21:55:20 [DisneyPam] the nice thing is you can see some of the former Hunchback CMs in other shows around the parks.

21:55:25 [MargaretJ] I need to run all. Talk to you later.

21:55:35 [BetsyAnn] Good MJ

21:55:44 [DisneyPam] Also...Indiana Jones is a fun show to see.

21:55:54 [DisneyPam] g'nite MJ. thanks for coming.

21:55:54 [disneylove] always ment too but then it was gone

21:56:50 [BetsyAnn] MGM has a lot of entertainment for the size of the park

21:56:58 [Moley] There's usually a special exhibit of note, too. A behind the scenes look at a recent movie.

21:57:02 [disneylove] wait I know the best show is...

21:57:05 [BetsyAnn] I like the little mermaid

21:57:12 [disneylove] Fantasmic

21:57:36 [BetsyAnn] Yes - excellant show - disneylove
