HHN 28: Vamp 85: New Year's Eve

[Skubersky]

From what I recall about copyright law in the 80's (just saying I do not know what has changed since then) is that the park would already pay ASCAP and BMI (whatever the 2nd union is). Since we are talking about just playing songs in the streets, they can play anything, they just supply the lost of songs and the unions pay the publishers their cut.

Correct, ASCAP & BMI covers mechanical rights for virtually all background music. But if they do something like the Rocky Horror Tribute (ie more than 3 songs from any one composer or show) they need to negotiate grand rights.

If I go to HHN Orlando I feel like I might just do half the houses and then watch this Zone; so much potential. Hopefully they play Jump, Careless Whisper, Footloose, & Rebel Yell in addition to Returning the Reaction’s list since all 4 would fit the period well. Wish “I Think Were Alone Now” by Tiffany was released earlier than ‘87 & “Venus” by Bananarama was released earlier than ‘86 since those would be epic in this zone and fit in well here. If this does well what are the odds for Vamp ‘9_ or Vamp2K?

I want it if it means we get to hear “My Heart Will Go On” blaring through the entire SZ at least every hour on the dot.

The Final Cut from Pink Floyd.

Well I’m hoping for a “Billie Jean” floor somewhere but that one might fall into the “unrealistic” category.

That would be...amazing.

a new years party? what does that look like?

 

[happy bunny rabbit]

To be fair, I bet no one predicted the last Vamp’s setpiece, so it could be something unexpected.

What? A parade float? It was described as a homecoming parade.

Based on location I would imagine a raised stage for the host of the party. I pretty much expect this to be that the Vamps have taken over the Times Square Party so a main stage with some smaller vignettes. I also fully expect them to rip off as much of The Lost Boys as possible without actually having the IP (saxophone, fill the windows of one shop with comics, etc)

Ah, sorry, my memory fails me. I thought it was described as the homecoming dance, but that doesn’t even make sense.

I hope this song is in there. Hell just make another Jason house or make a zone and put it in!

 

[snayberry]

This is going to be lit.

This is going to be lit.

Yeah, I'm going to be making it a point to be here every night to watch this. Sounds like it's just once per evening, which would make it even cooler IMO.

I'm really glad they made it once per night and not on the hour.

The off cast is going to be pissed they don't get to play.

Lol. Then we get this

 

[Captain Tragedy]

Lol. Then we get this

Hah! Was about to post the same thing.

 

[faceleg]

84 has the better music choices so i'm glad it's not 85-86

This might actually work well for crowd control, acting like a “second show” that may draw people.

Then again... it might create a terrible bottleneck, forcing them to add extra ball drops...
