I so enjoy the bands, that we've been known to catch all four British Invasion shows, with Off Kilter in between. The Moroccan folk group that Mike mentioned is also quite fantastic, and about as loud as Off Kilter. Worth a trip around the lake (especially, combined with food!). I don't claim a favorite of the three bands; it is just glorious to hear such terrific live music. You brought back vivid happy memories with your description. My wife just called me on the no favorites...The British Invasion. She's right. We plan around their performances. I read aloud your description of “band day” to my wife and we laughed.

I've seen them at Food and Wine each of the last 2 years. They are gorgeous. I have one of the Rose and Crown...it makes me happy just to see it again! I agree 100% with moving ESPN to the DQ building. The flagship location of ESPNzone should be at the Mouse. And yes, don't expect these crowds in June!

Your reports of uber-low crowds really has me excited that perhaps it wont be the swarm of bodies I'm expecting when I go down, but then again, June is a different animal.

Details, man, details!!! ;) As a SSR DVC owner, I'd love to see the rumored ESPN Zone come to DTD as the replacement to DisneyQuest. (That's a lot of acronyms.) Unless you have a rental car or are staying at an Epcot area resort, getting to/from the Boardwalk ESPN is a pain. To have one within walking distance to our room at SSR would be great, especially on those Sundays during football season. Disney World prints?! Details, man, details!!! ;)
