don't be a smartass

Now now, I was only joking.:D Anyway, just out of curiosity, what puppet did you play?

And that Sage of Time outfit is so cool! But it looks rather warm. Just imagine wearing that on a hot sunny florida day.

Hammer, Disc, and Marionette...

Hammer snapped both my ankles, Marionette did irrepairable damage to my back.

kinda like a backpack.

the puppets are clamped to a rack of puppets, you step into it, like putting on a backpack, secure the 4 snaps (waist, chest, and 2... happy straps), tighten them, and off you go.

LOL! Ok, not like the cliché LOL, but really, that was funny!

BTW, once my dad is off the bigger computer with all the files, I'll upload some more.

didn't the guy who created the Lion King Broadway puppets create these puppets too

Michael Curry. He makes most of the puppets on property. Funny, everything he makes hurts people. For example, The Great Wall in the Mulan Parade.

haha, I just heard today on the news that he created the puppets for Katonga at Busch Gardens. I was also just wondering, does anyone know about how much Tapestry cost to run each time?

Here's one of my newer ideas for a Tapestry revival.
The parade would travel along the lagoon like the Porto Paradisio Water Carnival at TDS and would include a Sage Of Time float similar to the Blue Fairy in MSEP. It would be followed by several floats representing the continents which would have people dancing, puppets, and drummers. Also, characters and puppets would interact with guests on land and all of Epcot's entertainment acts would participate from their home Pavillion (Japan's Drummers, Mexico's Mariachi Band, Off Kilter,the Jammitors who would be in the spot between FW and WS,etc.) If the main procession ended in a certain spot, the celebration would continue and projections on fountains and the Illuminations Globe would come in those spots and the puppets would still dance and interact with guests. Also, during the Sage Of Time's narrations, a laser image of him would be projected on the buildings around World Showcase. After Tapestry finished, then it would lead directly into Illuminations.

I dont care how they bring it back, they just need to. I really miss the music the most, even though I can listen to it when ever I liked hearing the dream, dream, dream part and all the kids and stuff, it was really great
