Who could it have been?

[Raven66]

We were in MGM on Monday Feb. 27th at approx. 8 PM. Several "rocker" types were escorted onto RnRC. I was waiting for my DH and DD to come out and I was sitting on a wall outside. As soon as I saw them, they looked very familar. They were British, I say that because I heard them speak. I went into the gift shop to wait for the family and they came off the ride with several people in tow including some CM's. Does anyone know who it was? It's been eating at me since I saw them. Thanks!!!

My boyfriend said that it might be the rolling stones. However IMO if someone saw mick Jagger I'm sure you would know who he is just by looking at him.

That would be intresting if it was the Rolling Stones, because I was told that the Stones were Disney's first choice for Rock n' Rollercoaster (U2 was also considered) not Aerosmith.

Def Leppard?

Do you have any more information?

Did any of them have a specific look? Long/Short hair? Tall/Short? Clothes?

How old 'roughly' were they?

One of the guys was tall with short blond hair with dark roots and it was spikey. Leather coat and I believe jeans. A couple of other blondes and then there was a shorter guy with short brown hair and several earrings in both ears. Fairly nice looking and dressed pretty good. It's hard to tell but possibly late 30's-mid 40's. I was going to snap a picture, but I didn't feel like being wrestled to the ground at that moment. It was all very secrective. They left though a gate next to the ride.

Nope, not Def Leppard.


Thanks for helping me out everyone. :wave:

Maybe Coldplay? Aren't they British and in the area doing a show? Maybe I'm wrong..

This is getting really intriguing...can't think who this could be!

If there 30's to 40's then it's obviously not The Stones. You said they had an English accent? Hmmmmmmm?

Sounds a little like U2...think you'd have picked up on the different accent though!

Does anyone else haveany knowledge about a band visit?

Sorry, Raven...I'll stick with it though!!! :veryconfu

 

[JCrane]

I was thinking Coldplay but then none of the band have multiple earings of bleach blonde hair...well, not the last time I saw them!

Given that they were allowed sole access to the ride, they must still have some pull within the industry...must be pretty current...Hmmmmm

When I read that, Billy Idol came to mind.

No photos of anybody on the WDW media site (they usually will post photos of celebs at the parks).

Could it have been Bon Jovi?
They were in Daytona recently for the Daytona 500...

SpinalTap - on a 1 to 10 scale, RNRC is an "11".

 

[KumbaRider]

Bob Iger?

No, but that would have been cool. I definately would have recognized them.
