it would have really been bad if Vanessa Carlton did the new song for the snow white 7 dwarfs and then this happened. can you imagine what kind of crap storm Disney would be in.

I kind of think that most families probably aren't expecting to see someone on a stage dropping F bombs while at Disney. Even at other family theme parks, not really appropriate given the audience. Now if its at a concert at a stadium, club or whatever where you are paying specifically to see that artist? Sure, if you're paying to see them then you obviously know what their songs are like, at least I hope so. But at Disney, dunno, I think that's just a different story. :shrug:
Does anyone have or know where I can find some pictures of Wednesday's Vanessa Carlton performance? I'm bummed I missed it.

^ You'll recognize it within the first few chords, I'd wager: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pnkvhi1XOR8

Perhaps it may be because such a thing has been unheard of previously? :lookaroun

To say she has low class because she cursed on stage is a bit extreme for me. Everyone curses, beleive it or not. I don't see why 2 slips makes her lack common sense and have little class. Maybe you're just too sensitive? :shrug:

I was gonna say. Dropping the "f" bomb is nothing compared to showing the world your "naughty bits"....... Meh whatever..... guess that's why the only "rock" shows Disney books are the Christian bands that never swear because they were raised in strict homes.....

I do think the first time was a genuine slip but the second one had to have been somewhat preventable. I dunno, for me, it would be hard and I'd be sweating not to cuss, but if I actually did let one through then I would be EXTREMELY careful not to let one through again. Does anyone know what was said? Like was it a song lyric or just "YOU GUYS F**KIN ROCK!". Surely she would have a radio friendly version of the lyric....and I dunno to me.....I don't see Disney World having a very rowdy crowd at least not rowdy enough to be that f'n good lol.

I sorta knew her name but it wasn't until I heard those first few chords that I knew why.
Um, no.
Or they don't swear because their religious belief encourages them not to.

You guys must not get out enough or like your average middle aged pin trader you're far to sheltered for your own good...If you don't want to hear cursing, turn the TV off, stay indoors and wear noise dampening headphones and never ever leave home.
I've heard cast members drop the F-bomb in every park and resort and about 97394793743434 people in Epcot during Food and Wine curse...you hear the F-bomb about once a second during the fest! It's a word folks...get over it.
While not as blatant as VC, Kool and the Gang did an awesome version of Get Down On It when I was there two weeks ago...and I'm pretty sure that song isn't remotely sexual at all. errrrr...oh wait. I never saw so many suburban soccer moms want to shake their butts in all my life. It was hilarious.
Central clear.

1) Count me suprised. I heard an interview with her a while back and she seemed (at least at that time) like a well spoken, articulate, politle young woman.
2) Who cares what Disney (or for that matter any other venue says) The venue makes rules and the performer makes rules (in thier rider) As a professional, if you agree to those rules, then you abide by them. If Disney has a "no cursing" rule (I assume a list is provided, and F___ is pretty much near or at the top of most lists) then you abide by the rule or you don't agree to play there.
3) I can understand a single slip. Cursing is commonplace - it's also lazy and uninventive, but that is beside the point. I should hope a person can controll themselves. If she was invited to play for the President (whomever he or she may be) would she respond "F-ing A man, I'll play that S___" or perhaps she would choose better words. People need to learn to turn on the filter between mouth and brain - not just with cursing, but with saying anything in general without thinking.

I would venture that I am far from sheltered. Cursing is far down my list of things I find shocking.
However, I do find it boorish, unintelligent, and generally indicative of a mind that is not being used to its full potential.
People clean their ears with the end of the fork at dinner, belch out loud, and then scratch themselves as well.
If that's how you like your meals, then more power to you, I choose to exhibit a bit more self-control.
