Eat to the Beat Concert Question

[disneyfav4ever]

I was looking at the concert schedule, and there're two I'm interested in seeing. I want to see Otis Day and the Knights and the Beach Boys .

My problem is that I have early ADRs both days. One day I have a 4:00 PM dinner reservation at Le Cellier. Will I have enough time to eat and get a seat for the 7:00 show?

The next one I want to see the Beach Boys, I have a 5:30 ADR at Flying Fish. Will I have enough time to get to Epcot for the 8:15 show?

How crowded do these shows get?

IMHO:
You'll have enough time to eat and get to both shows, but there is no telling what the crowd level will be, or how many people will line up beforehand for each scheduled show. I would expect that the Beach Boys will be quite crowded. Can't say the same for Otis.

The shows I've been to, I've never seen the place even approaching packed, but have never went for a show as popular as the Beach Boys.

We are hoping to see Otis (My man! lol) on 9/30 at the 8:15 PM show. We have ressies at Le Cellier at 6:30 - so I am not sure we will be able to, but we will give it a shot. If not, oh well!

We are very excited to see Al Stewart on Friday, Sept 28. I just changed my Biergarten ADRS to 6:40 so we can see the 5:45 show. BUT...I know Biergarten is different and it is easy to change around ADRs for that restaurant, because it is not as popular. Le Cellier...well, you will have to stick with what you have already got, I suppose. But I do not see why you would not be able to see those shows. I think you have plenty of time!

BTW...how long are the concerts? Are they a full hour, or more like 45 minutes? Thanks.

You could sit at one of the tables across the way at the American CS restaurant and hear the concert even if you cannot see them. A couple of years ago they started screening off the stage area. Not sure if it was to keep the crowds from blocking the sidewalk or not.

The Beach Boys was the first concert we ever had a hard time getting into in that series. Only one original one the time we went.

Thanks Robert P!

Thanks for letting me know that! I want to be back to my room by 9:00 the day I'm planning on going to the 7:00 concert, so that should give me plenty of time.

The season premiere of Desperate Housewives is on that night, and I don't want to miss it.
