Eat to the Beat Concerts

[disfanforlife]

I can't wait to find out who will be there 11/5-11/12. Last time during F & W was5 years ago. We saw Air Supply and Richard Marx - both great!

 

[Delirium]

I'm anxiously waiting for BoyzIIMen dates, myself. We saw them 2 yrs ago and they put on an amazing show.

I think Boyz II Men has a full time Vegas gig this year.

I think Boyz II Men has a full time Vegas gig this year.

They're still touring, too-- they haven't listed any dates in November on their site though and they've been Jersey Week performers for a few years, so I'm hopeful.

Is it common for artist to only do one night? I'm not familiar with "Fuel" but that would still leave 2 other nights for us 9/23 or 25.

 

[Hikergirl]

Darn, dh and I would love seeing Fuel instead of Starship but we'll miss them by a few days.
Can't wait to see who will be there the 19th-23rd of Sept.


Fuel is a rock band, they aren't super popular but have had some hits on the radio in the recent past.

I'm definitely old, as I've never heard of Wang Chung, Plain White Ts, Fuel, or Jeffrey Osbourne! On the other hand, it seems Starship is there for every Food & Wine and Flower & Garden festival.

My last visit during Food & Wine was in late September 2014 - to see Off Kilter one last time before they got the axe. I haven't been as interested in going to WDW since then.

Nah, you're not old. I bet if you Google/Youtube Wang Chung you'll recognize "Everybody Have Fun Tonight". Likewise for Jeffrey Osborne I think you'll recognize "On the Wings of Love". For the Plain White T's, they've had a few hits you may recognize; "Rhythm of Love", "1,2,3,4", and "Hey there Delilah". Give it a try and let us know if any lightbulbs go on! As far as Fuel is concerned, I like you had not heard of them before we saw them last year. I know they have a following, but I can tell you that more people were leaving the 5:30 show after 5 minutes than people coming in.

Thanks for the helpful hints! I do remember "On the Wings of Love" - although my husband's rendition of "Everybody Have Fun Tonight" didn't ring a bell!

 

[SpaceMtnGirl]

We always miss Hanson by a few days. I'm hoping they'll be there on or after Oct 1!

 

[Dayman99]

Saw Sugar Ray in 2014, great time and Mark McGrath always gets the crowd involved in the show. Heading down Nov 6-12, so hoping for some decent shows for those dates! Night Ranger would be cool to see.....

Our only park day is Oct. 24 for Food & Wine for our wedding anniversary. Can't wait to see who will be there that day! Last year we were there for Jo Dee Messina and the guy from Styx (blanking on his name right now! Oops!) and weren't interested in either of them so we didn't watch... I saw Boyz II Men a few years ago though and they were SO good. Would love to see them again!

 

[Dayman99]

Dennis DeYoung (From Styx) would be pretty cool as well

 

[RnbwSktles]

We always miss Hanson by a few days. I'm hoping they'll be there on or after Oct 1!

I thought I was the only one hoping for Hanson! I will be there 11/2-11/7, so we can't both have them!

 

[maxiesmom]

Come on Oct 1-8!!!!!!!! I would really love it if Rick Springfield returned. I watched from outside of the seating area last year, and he was great!

 

[Hikergirl]

Do the same acts usually come back every year?

 

[PCFriar80]

Do the same acts usually come back every year?

There are some that repeat year after year; Starship, 38 Special, Dennis DeYoung, Smash Mouth, Sugar Ray, Air Supply [to name a few]. Last Year, there were 4 "new acts"; Tiffany, Everclear, Maxi Priest and Chaka Khan. This year it appears there are more new acts already on board with Plain White T's, Wang Chung, and I believe Jeffrey Osborne is new. Some acts that I've seen come and go with brief or no repeats include Howard Jones, Jim Brickman, Spyro Gyro, Jon Secada, and Juice Newton. This is just a small sampling.
Nonetheless, it is always a good time with the repeat faves and new acts!

 

[Huff]

Are the concerts generally 30-40 minutes long?

30 minutes.

I hope plain white t's gets official confirmation as 10/9 and wine and dine weekend are the only fest times I know 100% I'll be off work ( though if Hanson comes again may need to play sick)
