That's what I said. More than likely.

What... When was this? I know it is off-topic but I still want to know.
Were all the floats destroyed?
The parade closed 6 years ago. Why would Disney keep the floats? The only float that was kept was the castle float from the end. It is used for Disneyland's Halloween parade. It's a shame but it's usually the done thing with Disney parades.

Most of our floats are destroyed after the parade has been closed. Unfortunately, upkeep wasn't a priority for the best nighttime parade we ever had....SpectroMagic. A parade that could have lasted forever...well loved.

The princess float Elsa and Anna // Tiana and Naveen part stopped moving when they entered Main Street and also the dancers just stopped dancing and began to wave. They did the whole dancing part up until that. It was becase the media was put in town square to see the parade and that way they could take pics

The float stopped moving on Main Street because of the media. It was moving all the way until that point.
actually it was due to weather that everyone stopped dancing. they had to get the parade out of the park, so they stopped dancing so the floats could go faster.

Due to a storm. Busch Gardens was fully closed because of it. Though I think we're gonaa see the PatF/Frozen float stay stable because people haven't been able to see both fully if it spins which I'm fine with. Actually I like it better. If frozen faces behind while patf faces forward everyone we'll be able to see both, and it'll be like a little surprise at the end to see the newbies. It shows in the video.
As soon as the frozen music starts you can see children jumping up and down trying to find them. And when they do its priceless and cute. So I like the float like that. Don't know if anyone wants to give their opinions.

Looking on the float the choreography hasn't changed there. Don't about the ground dancers.

How do they signal to the cast members to stop dancing and just walk? Is there like a special signal???

There are parade support CMs scattered along the route on headsets and what not. They let the cast know these kinds of things.

What they shout it out to them?

no, once the CM hear it on the radios they signal the performers on the street. Usually some kind of hand signal. There's actually a video of it from CADCTP somewhere on Youtube.

This is a pretty good example. At around :50 the CM in blue signals with her hand for them to speed up their movement, move faster. You'll see the CM do it again around 2:50 and throughout the rest of the video. By the time the last group of dancers is there, they're already walking.
