Finally a place to buy my "I'm with the band" T-shirt.

In case anyone from Disney actually reads this comment, this is sarcasm. The band-related merch is uber lame. Stupid even. Anyone associated with its creation should be sacked. And the people who hired those people should also be sacked. Oh, just sack everyone with decision-making authority in Orlando why doncha.

Honestly it's like the accident on the side of the road you know you shouldn't look at, but can't help yourself.

I've already seen this in another thread, and I just clicked on this link to see if it's still as gruesomely corny and unbelievably ridiculous as I remembered - I was shocked to find it was worse.

You know that feeling you get when someone does something so embarrassing that you get embarrassed for them? When I look at all of this Magic band stuff I get an interesting mixture of that feeling and extreme rage.

Am I weird?

More like a Coming-Out Party. Embrace the new WDW. Or shun it and pretend you never knew it because how it chooses to behave mortifies and appalls you.

I'm just here for the wake ... if we can go back an remember how it used to be would be better ... when they had a premium product and were selling it as that.

So many missed merch opportunities! What I could really go for is a t-shirt with a big picture of Michael Eisner on it, and underneath the picture: "Miss Me Yet?"

My only question is this: will I be able to get my oil changed and tires rotated at the MyMagic+ Service Center?

Only if you book it 60 days in advance.

Not at all. If you ever loved WDW and you look at these and think "this is the future" of course you're going to have complicated feelings. Extreme rage among them.

Thanks man. I feel better knowing I'm not completely crazy.

Forgive me if you've already tackled this but couldn't you expand your "what the hell happened?" actors series to WDW!?? Or do you not have a lifetime to dedicate to that? ;)

We can all laff, but who here doesn't think these shirts are awesome? :)

I for one want quintuplets just so I can make them wear these ticket book shirts. Yet ticket books are nothing but the forerunner of magicbands.

Yeah I admit I've seen these before and I love 'em. Thanks for making me feel like a hypocrite.
HAHAHAHA ;)

We may hate them. But one day our kids will cry tears of nostalgic joy at the mere mention of MagicBands, that key that opened every door to their most cherished magic worlds. A MagicBand will remind them of walking Disney's hallowed ground with their beloved dad.
I cherish old tickets, but I'm sure my dad only ever cries over A-E ticket books because of lingering nightmares about their showing up on his credit card bill after the trip...

I also predict that the youngest generation will not at all be bothered by any datamining. Why, they will love that Disney can retrace every step they ever made in a Disney park, and that they can pay TWDC to retrieve this data and share it with the entire world on Facebook. Different ideas about privacy.


On a side-note, I remember how much my family liked the ticket books being replaced with general admission tickets. So much less stressful, less planning, more relaxed. Shame it's going the other direction again.

These shirts are awesome because the ride tickets went away. I don't see an end to the magic bands :(
