Funny how everyone seems to get this except Disney

I think everyone would win in that scenerio. Disney doesn't have to pay for an expensive new indoor coaster, the general public will enjoy it, and the fans still have the ToT.

Alright, I remember reading reports that one night some guest at the end of the night were asked if they would mind riding with a new soundtrack that were testing out.The test music was by Powerline (the fake musician from the Goofy Movie).
Now, I know these types of reports are incredibly difficult to verify and I can't find much else to verify it. I believe I read it on screamscape.
So, take that with a grain of salt, BUT I read this before a lot of this retheme discussion came up. And a fictional band from a Disney movie takes away the need for a timeless rock band. Powerline being from a Disney movie means they don't have to deal with making a new contract with a new rock band. It would be a cheap retheme that could tide iit over till an eventual major retheme. let's face it, if this thread has proven anything, it's that no one can agree on another "worthy" band, a fictional musician makes that discussion not matter.
Just make the pre show Goofy and Max trying to make it to the powerline convert and add a goofy cut out or two to the ride itself.

They should trade places with Guardians. The Tower could exist near unchanged as a supervIllain lair on Earth.

Would be great if they could put GOTG here. Sorry for the redundancy!

I did think it was interesting that on my recent visit, the vast majority of shirts and merchandise in the gift shop either simply said ROCK & ROLLER COASTER or MICKEY'S ROCK & ROLLER COASTER, with very few having any Aerosmith references. There was still a lot of Aerosmith merch but it was specifically Aerosmith, not R&RC themed.Oh no! The refurb aka re-theme has begun! No it really hasn't

Yeah I noticed that when they rolled out the new merch a few months back. It ALMOST seemed as if they were slowly phasing out Aerosmith

I wonder if people just weren't buying Aerosmith stuff anymore. Not really cranking out new, young fans like they used to.
(but hey, I hope Aerosmith stays).

They're replacing Aerosmith with the Future Villain Band!
