Where is 2U? #ThanksShanghai

Thanks for setting me straight on this. I've seen every group that's ever performed in this series and never knew they were the actual gorups working under assumed names. That means that the group that played the first week and last week in 2006 and called themselves Transit Authority was actually Chicago. And the Hotel California group that played two weeks straight in the middle of the summer was actually the Eagles. And in 2007, when we went out for beers with a couple of the musicians and their wives, we were at Bennigans with Glen Frey and Don Henley and didn't know it. And I never got an autograph.

I'm not sure what you are talking about - the Sounds Like Summer concert series has always been cover bands. Trust me, I've been going every year since they started in 2006. F&G and F&W have the actual bands, summer is for the tribute bands - many of which are just as good (Stayin' Alive, for example). I'm very much looking forward to the Fleetwood Mac group - sounds like they put on a great show!

Wrong - This is the FIRST year that 'tribute bands' are the majority instead of real acts, No Springsteen was NEVER going to play there, But at one time there was a lineup which was similar to the Garden Rocks series.

Given that this is year #11 for this concert series, it has nothing to do with the hot mess in Shanghai. But nice try at twisting something to fit your world view.

I know. Venue not large enough either. But, one can dream.:cat:

CAPTAIN HOOKApr 01, 2016

I don't think you'd get to see Fleetwood Mac, Bruce or The Eagles (before the sad passing of Glenn Frey) included with your park entry

bethymouseApr 01, 2016

Still wish it could be the real folks.:(

BoltApr 01, 2016

Yeah - I remember when Bruce Springsteen use to play 3 shows a day for a weekend in a venue that holds 1500 in the middle of his arena tours.

CAPTAIN HOOKApr 01, 2016

What was the surprise ;)

ford91exploderApr 01, 2016

You mean like they USED to do before the Shanghai Surprise... #ThanksShanghai

CAPTAIN HOOKApr 01, 2016

Well they could have booked the real bands..............tribute acts - huh !! I tried :)

WDW adding something for general admission! How will WDWMagic forum users spin this to be a negative addition? That story coming shortly...

Sounds Like a fun, entertaining lineup. Thanks for sharing @wdwmagic We don't go in the summer, but if we did, I think we would enjoy all of these.
