I know, I know, it's only September and I'm bringing up holiday music before Halloween AND Thanksgiving. I should be ashamed.

But, we are travelling down to WDW for another trip during the holidays and was wondering if you had the Holly Day Parade track? I tried a few variations of the name and could not find in the requests.

Thanks much, and thanks for all that you do to make this site incredibly entertaining and useful!

I've never heard of this parade. I've searched all the references I know of for past parades/shows/attractions, but can't find a thing. any additional info you have would be greatly appreciated in tracking down this... track....

The parade, its the christmas version of the past and old Cars, Motors and Stars parade. This parade was presented each christmas time, but disney changed its name after each season, so it might not be a very easy to find abut. In fact the major name given to it, was Hollywood Holly-Day Parade. I have a few versions of video from it. :D

would you mind sending me a copy of these videos? maybe put them up on google videos or somewhere I can download them? If the audio quality is decent, I'll extract it for possible addition to the playlist

JPWDW, thanks for shedding more light on this. Yes, it was the 3pm parade replacing Stars and Motorcars during the holidays. I'm sure I have some video as well but it will not be the complete parade, just segments.

I hope they bring it back this year, but with Stars and Motorcars discontinued I guess the chances are slim.

I'll see if I can, the smallest one I have is 320x240, but the audio quality isnt good. There was a girl screaming while the parade was filmed. But if you can logg in on AIM (I already have your profile) I might send it from there.

I guess Disney wants to design a new parade, because as now they offer Block and Party Bash, maybe a new version of a Hollywood christmas parade based on the new one.

I'm always logged in, but may be set to away. I'm also always on MSN. if you get an away message, I'll respond eventually (when I get home from work)

I was searching around for some information on this parade whether they were going to bring it back this year or not and I found last year's video of it. Not sure how great the audio is though. Also, the parade is set up like a big city parade (al la NYC's Macy's Thanksgiving Parade) so not sure how well it would translate to just audio but nevertheless, here is the link in case we want to upload to the server.

I do not have the file, and tried to extract myself but with no luck.
