What do you all think of this year's Eat To The Beat Concert Line-up? I'm so excited that Postmodern Jukebox is playing I'm trying to figure out how to squeeze in a super quick trip just for the concert! 
Have any of you ever gone down just to catch a show? Is that totally crazy?
Gosh, not crazy at all. It's a nice getaway.
Until the Sounds Like Summer series was stopped, we would plan a long weekend around the Bee Gee's tribute band Stayin' Alive concerts in Epcot. I would play golf and my wife would find tours or things of interest in the Animal Kingdom during the day. We'd meet up for a late lunch, go to the concert, hang at Epcot, and then eat a late dinner.
If I lived closer I would be totally doing a quick trip to see Plain White T's, Lauren Alaina and David Cook!!! go for it I say!
I must be getting old, I recognize only 9 or 10 of the names on the list. The last concert I went to was the Allman bros in the Big Easy about '92. These kids and their "rock and roll" music!!!!!!!

If boyz II men was on a weekend I would do it. Just don't think I can swing one day without dragging on wednesday.

Would love to get there for the baha men!

Pat Sajak is supposed to be there when we are.
I'm more excited because Tom Bricker (Disney Tourist Blog)
wrote he might be there to see Pat. I'd rather have my picture with Tom!
Is that sad?

Hahaha! No, Tom is an amazing photographer and a super smart Disney writer. I was kind of star struck when I ran into him a few years ago.
I'm bummed that I am missing Squeeze by one day. If they started on the 11th instead of the 12th I would have seriously looked into staying an additional night.
