Well sort of.....Disney is going to be doing the Canadian Holiday Voyageurs holiday show after Thanksgiving and ending before New Years. The main portion of this band are the members of Off Kilter with the exception of the female vocalists. Any speculation on that one?? Marie
It looks like they brought in a bunch of Carnys
They could be the heros by admitting to "due to guest interest" bringing back OK. I just found it interesting, why keep the band together for a run after 2 months or so of the lumberjacks. Are they hedging their bets? I think this would be a smart move personally. Marie
I suppose so...but I've already been warned once (in my earlier days as a member) about too much "profanity"...so Imma leave that one alone...do what you will though! lol.
It's like how for 3 years now (hopefully 4 this year) they bring back Comedy Warehouse for two weeks at Christmas time at DHS. TDO knows that the show works, people like it, and that it draws a solid crowd but yet they won't fully swallow their pride and bring it back full time. I think it's ashame that Comedy Warehouse isn't a year round show at DHS, it's not like they have two theatres(Sounds Dangerous and AIE) sitting empty....
I have seen that show during the time I was down there for New Years and it was AWESOME!!!!! Same kind of thing I guess?? Marie
So either they are saving a ton of money as this show isn't worth a dime, which implies, sadly, that Off Kilter was way overpaid. My point is, if this is saving any negligible amount money over the alternative (leaving OK in place, then OK was making decent cash) But that leads me to another thing, though I find the lumberjack show, based on the one video we have, atrocious, I think some people need to be a little realistic over what they replaced. Folks are stating things along the lines that the lumberjack show is something you can see at a county fair, and that's probably right, but they are also making it sound as if Off Kilter were Rush or some other iconic Canadian rock band (though they were no more Canadian than I am, which is to say I have some relatives from Nova Scotia and I like poutine) But folks, hit up a few pubs and you'll find bands no unlike Off Kilter, and yes, some even with bagpipers. They were great, but they're no more or even less one of a kind than the lumberjack show. Just better than it. Much, much better than it. If they take the time to level the existing stage and build a proper place to put this show on, perhaps it will improve. They sorely need a log rolling pool.
Save your dot matrix ink Dave.
Consider who you're explaining this to.
