The British Invasion was always a part of our EPCOT visits, we always planned our evenings around when we could get there to have an adult beverage and listen to some music. I suppose everone has to eventually move on, I just wonder what they plan on replacing them with? We were in EPCOT last summer for the concert series thing, and the "Rolling Stones" played, they were pretty good! So maybe another British cover band will be there for the busy summer.

I know I am in the minority here, but I was never really a big fan.I like the Beatles okay, but it always seems to cause bottlenecks and made it harder to get around in the already cramped space of the UK pavilion.
They were talented for sure, but I can't say that I will miss them specifically.

That's perfectly acceptable since there are "Stones fans" "Beatles fans" "sex pistols fans" etc.

I can't say I've ever seen them. We don't spend a lot of time exploring the countries in depth.

Heh, Sex Pistols...I can't imagine that would go over too well at Disneyworld.

This is very disappointing news. They are one of the better hidden secrets of Disney World, a secret not often discussed, but when you find it, you'll be glad you did.

I wonder how much notice they gave? It sounds like they already have the replacement ready to go on May 1.

Off Kilter is a rip-off of Great Big Sea

I don't disagree with you about that (for once, eh?

). No wonder I like Off Kilter so much.
