I never heard of "The Fray" before and I DO know who Geddy Lee is.

Old, old...why must these boards keep reminding me that I am old???

Keith Richards is a lot older than I am, though...and obviously still popular. Of course, he's still blitzed a lot and falling out of palm trees. I'm not as cool as he is.

They'll be in town Nov. 1st but this will be the first time in 8 years I haven't seen them live (thanks, grad school!) so I guess I'll wait for the DVD for this tour. Why are we here? Because we're here, roll the bones!

RUSH ? Seen them many times, love thier music....just dont see them having a very wide appeal, again only real rock fans know who Geddy Lee & co. are. The general audience probably couldnt name one song.

Boston would be neat... Foreplay/Longtime would be fun! Also, Rush...you know where they are huge? BRAZIL haha

Daft Punk would be better suited for an in-train Space Mountain soundtrack I believe.

I agree, Daft Punk would make a great soundtrack for SM! If we get a Tron coaster, though... then that'll be settled

The only song I kept thinking about while riding RnR was Kickstart My Heart byMötley Crüe. I think it'd work much better for a roller coaster than any song I can think of.

That would be awesome, with the launch!

Paul Rodgers? Really?! You have to be kidding me. Freddie was the greatest vocalist of all time. Just listen to "The Show Must Go On" which he recorded pretty much from his death bed, and then come back here and tell me he wasn't the greatest vocalist of all time

That's available for your riding pleasure at Universal Studios. Disney would be smart (at the expense of copying Universal) to come up with a similar concept if they needed to replace Aerosmith - give people the option of what style/artist they want to listen to on the ride...

I, too, would like to see Aerosmith remain. I can't see them not wanting to stay but if they do go I think a band that is well know and liked by many should take their place. Rush, Led Zep...those kinds of bands aren't liked by everyone. It needs to be a Bon Jovi type band.

I would actually love to be able to hear "Big Bottoms" while on a roller coaster...

They play that at Six Flags New England when you ride the Bizarro (formerly Superman:Ride of Steel). It made me feel like I was flying through the air as Tony Stark in the Iron Man suit rather than zipping around as either Superman or Bizarro...

Stick with Aerosmith, they're a great fit for that ride. Also, cruising in the dark to "Dude Looks Like A Lady" is fun as heck.

Though I guess, if I HAD to pick a different band....Queen or Alice Cooper would be a lovely next choice ;)

Bingo.

It has to be someone with a catalog of music that most everyone knows and fits the ride. Bon Jovi, besides being my favorite band easily fits the bill: Livin' on a Prayer, You Give Love A Bad Name, Bad Medicine, Wanted Dead or Alive. Those are 4 that come to mind that everybody would know. There are others, just like with Aerosmith, that not everyone would know, but would like.

if had to replace aerosmith, then a few bands would be good like bon jovi, kiss (as previously mentioned can merch it better than everyone else), like rush especially spirit of the radio but i just don't see it happening. crue would be good kickstart my heart would be a great song to start it all.

gives me an idea for a thread...

All the bands listed are great to listen to with the exception of Jonas Bros ;) and Daft Punk? what ever the heck that is but it would have to be Bon Jovi. Not to heavy and everyone knows them. Plus seeing Jon for the pre show would be a nice yummy treat! :)

California Adventure at one point had a RnRc planned, to feature the music of No Doubt! I think that would be great, because that's their hometown.

My pick for DHS

I'm a HUGE Crue fan, but I think they might just be a tad too riske for Disney.
