I mean, some of the band they got pre-pandemic were solidly B-list in terms of their old content, and didn't fit the "nostalgia act" label too much (if your songs are the basis for one or more Broadway shows/iconic movie or TV scenes, they deserve a bit more respect than that). That's more of a "1 original member in the band is left, and they're keeping the name alive for the money" (Survivor, The Guess Who, and many others). I'd happily take B/C list bands over this list any day to be honest. I swore they both stopped being relevant when I was a kid 1`5-20 years ago - when the Plain White Tees were still selling out stadiums (and are now reduced to playing Epcot occasionally)... Just wait a few years I suppose.

Would happily take Paramore or the Jonas Brothers over some of the acts I've never heard of! But I don't think Disney will be booking bands that are currently supporting Taylor Swift/sell out arenas by themselves anytime soon ;) Yellowcard are a fun addition for us elder emos, just wish they were in November during my trip rather than Smash Mouth and 98 degrees...

You expect something above C-list and nostalgia bands? That’s just crazy talk! (Don’t get me wrong, the nostalgia bands would get me most times because… well, let’s not get into that here 😁)

An extremely weak lineup compared to pre-pandemic where they had legitimately good acts that were still selling out concerts and had major hits that everyone knew... I miss Night Ranger - only band I've ever seen twice in one day because they'd do an acoustic and an electric set (and vary some of the songs between them). Now I've literally never heard of a solid 65% of these bands/singers (and couldn't name songs from many of the returning ones either). Come on Disney, at least try and pay for some good acts to sell dining packages... What's next? Paramore and the Jonas Brothers?

Only 15+% price increases on some of the meal packages. 🙄

Concert lineup looks a bit weak this year. I guess with a shorter festival fewer bigger acts.

Hopefully that means we'll get menus - or at least a booth list - soon!

Is that salt/pepper shakers that look like trash cans? ROFLMAO That may be one of the first times I ever intentionally felt the urge to tip over a trash can just to have some of the contents land on the food on my plate. hehe Disney you are too much. 😨😰😱🫢😝😍

On her own? Who knows. But this is a highly touted retheme of a greatly beloved attraction. This ride opening WILL drive business this summer. But Epcot can easily absorb crowds more than the other two parks.
