So curiosity got me. Previous announcements:
  • 1/5/16
  • 1/12/15
  • 1/15/14
  • 1/7/14 (with Matchbox 20 leaking 2 months earlier)
So I guess expect an announcement by Friday--a mere 3 weeks out from the first date. Still crazy to me nothing has leaked yet.

If you really want to find out, then look at the tour dates for typical Mardi Grad acts. You may notice they're in Fl, but for some reason don't come to Orlando and are missing a date.

Looks like I may be up there for opening night. No clue if we will go by the concert venue as I have no idea on who might be playing.

I know that in the past I've known who was playing before I planned my trip (but the trip was always planned around the dates that worked for us, it was always nice to know who would be playing in case there was someone we wanted to see.

I guess the music is more for the locals and not expected as a draw for out of town folks?

Maybe they are having a tough time lining up talent? Maybe they want to wait until after the Potter thingie? Hey, U2 is touring t his year. Have they even offered sign ups for AP's to try and ride a float?

Yah, I doubt U2 is coming, though I would love to see them. Uni would have to pay a lotttt of money to get one of the biggest rock acts ever to do a relatively small theme park gig.

My sarcasm never shows up well on the interwebs....I mean U2 is playing the Hard Rock...it just happens to be a football stadium in Miami that has had a ton of names and currently carries the Hard Rock name.

Must have been a typo. They meant U2 rather than UB40? :lmao:

This may very well their worst lineup yet. Was Kool & The Gang and Olivia Newton-John a two for one deal? UB40?? What decade is this?

So.. does 50 consecutive nights constitute a 50 day blackout of Premier pass valet parking or do only concert nights qualify?

Ugh... this has to be their worst line-up in years. The Busch Gardens lineup is far more relevant than this... and their biggest pull (Fifth Harmony) just lost a member of the group.

They really went all out to knock it out of the park with this lineup.... especially now that they are technically charging for concerts. :saywhat:
