In July of 2007 I put out an Independence Day show using the patriotic songs the Voices of Liberty did during my trip in June of that year, I knew at the time that I wanted to put the other songs from those sets into some kind of a show, and here it FINALLY is!

SELECTED PHOTOS

Below: I don't have a perfect photo that caught the whole group on the 16th but this one comes close, Krista was conducting this day.

Below: While on the 17th Dirk was conducting (one gentleman is not visable in this veiw, but it was the closest I had to the whole group in one shot that day.

Ray had the the solo on Rockytop, Tennessee (also on Black Is The Color Of My True Loves Hair)

Dirk, the conductor on sunday the 17th, ( pictured above )did the solo on the version of Oh Susanah that played in this episode, yet that was the only one of the three soloists who did this song where I did not get a "Susanah picture" where the soloist picks a lady out of the audience to be his Susanah, so here are the other two. First heres JC

actually I got TWO photos when Ray did his...

...it's too bad that the third shot didn't fire that would have been "the tug".

In this time of economic downturn with Walt Disney World seemingly, battening down the hatches for a slow down in business by cutting back on some of its live entertainment groups, it is nice to hear that some folks from the Adventurers Club and Comedy Warehouse may have other jobs on property, I recently leaned that Carol, a talented keyboardist who worked at the Comedy Warehouse, got a job at Rose & Crown Pub, while I was quite pleased to hear this my next thought was, "Does that mean that Pam Brodie has went into full retirement? (she works two days a week in a sort of semi-retirement position), or are they getting rid of Leon Gregory?", it then occurred to me that perhaps there was another option too perhaps they would add some earlier sets, I then realized in the current economic climate that was quite unlikely, and when I got the opportunity to chat with some other fans asked if any of them had heard what the story was, unfortunately it turns out they are getting rid of Leon, in fact his last day has come and gone. Unfortunately times of unemployment seem to be an unavoidable fact of life for most musicians. You know, when you think about it Walt Disney World allows an almost unheard of opportunity for musicians to have regular work without having to travel. I'll miss Leon and hope he lands on his feet, and with his talent and experience, think that he may have a better chace at that than most folks would in his situation, with some luck I may get to hear him play again someday. As for Carol I only caught her once, as for me I only made my first trip to the Comedy Warehouse for the first time last December (and decided I needed to visit it more on future trips, oh well, so much for that!) even from that brief exposure it was clear she is one talented individual. So the next time I'm at the pub in the Great Brittan Pavilion I'll enjoy Carol (or Pam Brodie if it is one of her days) but I'll pause and think of Leon Gregory in a silent toast to him. As I recounted on this episode I first saw Leon perform on the "Trip without a camera" (Celebration 25), but the set in this episode was recorded a few weeks later when I was on a trip where I was able to stop and listen for a full set (RADP 12). linksThe Let's Talk About Disney Forums:http://www.letstalkaboutdisney.com/LTADForum/index.php The Mousin it up! subsection of LTADhttp://www.letstalkaboutdisney.com/LTADForum/forumdisplay.php?f=64The Yahoo group for the bigbrian-nc.com site and NC Disney news is at:http://groups.yahoo.com/group/disneypodcast/ Steve Soares fine site of WDW entertainment schedules:http://pages.prodigy.net/stevesoares/ songsThe Extraordinary Leon Gregory

This long overdue episode is a return to the Magic Kingdom trip report of 11 Oct. 2007. Picking up right where we left off in Episode 39, we quickly head back down Main Street to Town square near the Emporium where we take in a set of the Main Street Philharmonic, and then spend a little time chatting with and listening to Jim on what ended up being one of his "40 minute plus" sets.

This episode is a bit of a DETOUR from the trip report I've been covering. In honor of the Olympic games, now being held in Bejing, China, we'll take a listen to Si Xian, which is a performance on an instrument used in Chinese classical music.

This episode STARTS as a continuation of the audio "trip report" from the morning of October 11, 2007, though I finally get OFF of Main Street U.S.A. this time, heading to Frontierland where I find The Notorious Banjo Brothers and Bob... If that set is not enough for you, then GOOD, because after that we travel back in time to play TWO MORE sets by the guys, first from the December 2006 (Mousefest trip), and THEN from June 2007. In the first two sets all the players are the full time players, the Sousaphone player in the June 2007 set appeared to be a back up player filling in for the regular sousaphonists day off. linksThe Let's Talk About Disney Forums:http://www.letstalkaboutdisney.com/LTADForum/index.php The Mousin it up! subsection of LTADhttp://www.letstalkaboutdisney.com/LTADForum/forumdisplay.php?f=64 The Yahoo group for the bigbrian-nc.com site and NC Disney news is at:http://groups.yahoo.com/group/disneypodcast/ The link to THIS trip report in the trip reports section:http://www.bigbrian-nc.com/trindex.htm#rad12 Steve Soares fine site of WDW entertainment schedules:http://pages.prodigy.net/stevesoares/ songsset 1 - October 11, 2007Ghost Riders in the Sky Notorious shuffle (song they play as they walk) Bugle Call Rag Notorious shuffle (song they play as they walk) Happy Birthday (hayden) I'm an old Cowhand Notorious shuffle (song they play as they walk) Happy Birthday set 2 - December 7, 2006Foggy Mountain Breakdown Zip A Dee Doo DahWe Three Kings Jingle Bell rock medley including old joe clark (other songs unknown)Sweet Georgia Browne set 3 - June 16, 2007Notorious shuffle (song they play as they walk) Ole Slue Foot Never Smile at a crocodile (snippet for a joke about a nearby gator) Bugle Call Rag Lover please come Home Notorious shuffle (song they play as they walk) pictures taken during this episode can be found in the bottom half on these pages, from Oct 11, 2007http://www.bigbrian-nc.com/2007tr/oct/radp12/11th-e.htm from December 7, 2006 http://www.bigbrian-nc.com/mfst2006/7th-f.htm and from June 16, 2007 (with a substitute Sousaphonist) http://www.bigbrian-nc.com/2007tr/june/16th-h.htm feedback?
