performer in the parks? I love the Dapper Dans in MK- I look for them every time. We also like the marching band in MK, too. In Epcot Mariachi Cobre is a favorite too. Which performers do you like?

I HAVE to see both Voices of Liberty and American Vybe on each and every WDW trip! I also like the Brittish Invasion and Off Kilter. At the Studios I used to love the Hollywood Hitmen, but I haven't seen them around for a while.

I love the African drummers in AK! Watching them perform, sipping a cold one at the Dawa Bar. Oh no - I'm starting to cry . . .

the Japanese drummers at Epcot are AWESOME. My 2yo was mesmerized.

My favorite used to be Future Corps, but they, as well as the MK marching band, I'm afraid, were let go. The head of the MK band now plays sometimes with the Jazz band in the GF. My favorite now is probably the Jammitors in Epcot and the band in the GF.

We came across the British Invasion by accident in June in Epcot (Great Britain, of course). They were GREAT!
If you closed your eyes you could believe that the Beatles were playing.
We came back two more times to catch their shows and they continued to amaze. The crowds absolutely loved them (anyone over 40 or so anyway).
Anyone who likes the Beatles music please don't miss the opportunity to see and hear the British Invasion when you go to Epcot.

IMHO, Future Corp were the best. Shame the suits saw fit to ditch them.

Oh my gosh!! I totally forgot about British Invasion and Off Kilter- they are must sees every trip. There is also a group that plays in Frontierland in MK, I think they're called The Banjo Brothers and Bob- has anyone seen them? They are hysterical!

My husband and I love the British Invasion! We always try to catch them when we are at Epcot!

I like Off Kilter as well, very good performers!

 

[Pryncess'mom]

Another Dittpo for British Invasion, they rock !
One of our favorite disney memories involved them one afternoon. Our daughter, who was about 7 then, found three other little girls who wanted to play in the hedge maze around where the band plays. Imagine this : you have four little girls 5 to 9 years old, with the maze to themselves just having a grand ild time while BI is playing old Beatles songs.

At one point, the girls stopped in front of the bandstand. The singer started singing "Girl", and every person there knew that he was singing to those four little blond pixies ! Who would have thought that a Disney "magical moment" would incude Beatles music, a garden maze, and new friends ??

Some people get it , some don't - WE DO !!

Off Kilter is the best. One day when I was at Epcot, I could hear them playing when I was over at China. They were playing Enter Sandman from Metallica. Brought a tear to my eye...lol.

Definatley the British Invasion........they are so good. I use to embarrass my kids singing along but now my DD (16) loves them as much as I do and she knows the words too. Now I don't have to sing alone. Making memories with your kids to Beatle's music....priceless

I love Off Kilter, Voices of Liberty and Vibe also.

Does anybody remember a small, gray haired magician who used to perform at the Japan Pavillion? He was astounding.

I love the improv commedians at MGM.....

 

[P'colaFla]

Rosie and the gang (street actors) at MGM and also the "balloon guy" at France in WS. He was too funny. We saw him on our trip in May but that was the first time. I hope he is there again in September.
