Changes to Share a Dream Come True?

[DLP Fan]

Saw this on MousePlanet. Remember seeing it mentioned here previously but does anyone know anymore? Apparantly the changes could be in place by July. http://www.mouseplanet.com/articles.php?art=wd060515mg

Taken from MousePlanet:
Parade changes confirmed

Last week in our Walt Disney World Park Update, we reported that the Share a Dream Come True parade was going to see some changes, including the removal of the "snow globes" on the floats. We've now been able to confirm that the globes will be removed and the top parts of each float will be redesigned. As an example, the Mickey Mouse float will remain the same from the platform down, but new mouse-ear decor will replace the top half (yes, Mickey himself will still be there).
The venerable castle float will go back into storage until it's needed again. In its place, the original pricness floats will return, but no longer as one long, three-part float. Each section will be a separate float with an independent drive system, which will hopefully avoid a repeat of the tragic accident that took the life of cast member Javier Cruz in 2004 (link).
Reportedly, there will be new music and new choreography, as well as a new name for the parade, which may debut as early as July.

It's not air conditioned.

Oh well - a change is as good as a rest (I suppose)

The new music is pretty cool. It ties in with the new "Dreams" promotion that starts in October after HCOE is over (which is when I was told the changes will go into effect. Could have heard wrong, though... that music was pretty loud.)

It says the bubbles are air conditioned in the show on the travel channel.

Nope, air conditioning would cause condensation to form on the globes. There is air circulation, but it's at the same temperature as the outside air.

Really? I remember someone here posted a pic of one of the globes filled with fog that they said was condensation from the air conditioning....or am I TOTALLY making that up? I thought the picture was very interesting and so it gave me the impression that they were ACed. But if they're pumped with the same air as outside, they must be burning during the summer!!

Any clue as to what this new muxic is like? Is it a new theme song for the parade, like the old Remember the Magic, or just instrumental like the current version? Or if its 'Dreams' related is it the same music as used in Disneyland's Parade of Dreams?

Oh man..I miss remember the magic music.....anyone have a link to where we can hear the new music????

 

[Frank Stallone]

The new music was written by Michael Bolton and will be sung by Eric Idle, who will appear as the face of the moon.

When I went on the Keys to the Kingdom tour they said they weren't ac'd

Correct, if anything is Air Conditioned (which it's not) it would be the driver's area...but not the globe.

 

[Connor002]

So... this is their answer for a new parade...
Oh dear...

 

[Mecha Figment]

the name of the prade isn't changing that much either.

as of now it's no longer refered to as SADCT just DCT

Dreams come true.

 

[uglybug2005]

There are new lyrics and the music is a bit peppier, rather than the symphonic sound of the current score. I actually thought they were playing the old show-stop music for the first couple of bars, but then it got way different. Fun stuff, though.
btw... If this:
"So... this is their answer for a new parade...

is serious, you need a new hobby, some fresh air, and a bit of perspective.

I remember this too. It had a cool icey look to it that suprisingly looked even better.

Huh? They've had the same parade now for almost 5 years. That's unacceptable and used to be above Disney standards. It's even worse that all of the parades at WDW now are at at least the same age. I'm not sure anyone posting on these boards is qualified to tell another member that they need a new hobby
