Wow! I miss this! (Even though it was a workmans comp nightmare!)

Anything with a "Rolling Percussion Unit" is cool by me!

The YouTube comments mention CM injuries? What happened?

Wow. My fave! I still listen to the music from this parade. I miss it!

During our first family trip in 2000 my nephew was pulled into the parade by one of the butterflies and danced along with her for a little while. He still talks about it to this day and he is 17 now

The wind would get ahold of those things and rip a CM's back to shreads....

they are using these types of puppets at Cali Adventure for the WOC pre-show. THey have 5 that are covered in lights. Mike from Monsters, Inc, Sebastian from The Little Mermaid, Tigger, Genie, and Luminaire from Beauty and the Beast.

But that video is amazing. Thanks for sharing!

I loved this parade. I wanted to be on the Drum float sooo badly! It was my dream job

I miss this parade too - we saw it back in 2000 and loved it!

Man, the memories. I feel so fortunate that I got to see this parade as often as I did. I visited more frequently during the period of time this parade was showing and I'm so glad. It's my favorite parade of all time. Love the music, love the puppets .... Thx for posting this vid!
