American Adventure

[DisAl]

Like some of the rest of you, I think VoL is one of the high points of WDW.
I request that they sing Lee Greenwood's "God Bless the USA" every time we go. And when they get to the line "And I'd gladly stand up next to you" I do stand, and I wish everybody else would too.
I would nominate this song to be the second national anthem.

I guess I'm the only one who is not a fan of VOL.

The acoustics in the rotunda where VOL perform are incredible. And those singers perform at Candlelight which is a bonus too.

I'm sure there are others, you just happened to meet a bunch of VoL fans here at this thread.

Candlelight Processional that happens during the Christmas season.

They sing before 7-8 shows per day 5 days a week. Basically how it has been for decades.

Am I wrong in remembering that at some point in history, every time we went to see the American Adventure, they were before it as a preshow?
Even late into the evening when the parks were open later?

I remember a period where the kids couldn't see it because they were on three shows a day. They may have been temporary.

Anyway, I cry every time they sing, and I love hearing them in that rotunda.

I hope that American Adventure never closes.

I love it. I also love how they do America, The Beautiful and "This is My Country."

 

[KimAnnFran]

Okay I'll do it. Am I having another memory lapse that VoL once did a rendition of Golden Dreams?

OMG. are you saying they do holiday songs? I think I changed my mind about NEVER going at holiday time.

 

[Touchdown]

They do Christmas songs and wear their old Victorian attire at Christmas

I just want you all to know that you just gave me a heart attack....

All I saw was a thread about the American Adventure, and the worst possible things started flooding my head. I swear I was preparing myself to open this thread and see that it was closing or changing. THANKS FOR THAT!

For the past couple decades they have not performed before every show.

Just curious - why?

When they perform outside of the AA rotunda, as they do around July 4th when they do shows on the American Gardens stage, they'll do Golden Dreams. I think inside the hall it's a little bit of conflict with the recorded version that caps off the main show.

If AA ever got on the chopping block, count me in on the protest march.

Nope - - - - you are not
There is only so much Sam Eagle I can handle.........................

Weird, I've been there 17 times, the last was about 8 years ago, and they were. But at least they are still there!

OMG I can imagine, I'm sorry! But I just felt like talking about it, it's one of the things that brings me back.

oh yes me too!

I LOVE THAT SONG.
