Sad News from "The Happiest Place on Earth"

Post by JohnL »

At the Disneyland Resort we are always innovating and changing as we work on new ways to delight and entertain our Guests. With that in mind, we want to share that the Disneyland All-American College Band program will be taking a hiatus at this time
A lot of top-flight musicians have played with that band over the years, including trombonists Alex Iles and Jennifer Wharton.

Most troubling is that the article in the local paper used the words "end" and "cancellation" rather than "hiatus".

Very unfortunate that it's gone, it was a great resource and my friends who have been on it learned a lot from the program

That was quick; the hiatus announcement was only made a couple days ago...

Makes one wonder about the veracity of your local paper's reportage. #fakenews

Good to hear it's back. Otherwise another reason not to bother going back to the Park; it's a long trip for us to get there. In addition to all that the kids get out of the program, they themselves are very good at informing customers how to get the most out of their visit. As are their off duty friends in the audience. Amped up our first two trips to Disneyland immensely.

I wonder if that is part of the Ron Disaster effect.

Wrong state. Land = California. World = Florida.

Ron’s working on getting rid of the College part, not the band part.

Cheers,
