I think you are referring to the Candlelight Processional that takes place several nights November-December every year at Epcot. It is the religious version of the story of Christmas read by a celebrity narrator(Whoopi Goldberg, Neil Patrick Harris, Gary Sinise are just a few) Along with the narrator there is also a large Orchestra and choir. Off Kilter wouldn't fit into the reverent, almost "Christmas mass" feeling of the Candlelight Processional.

The only way they could play would be if they completely changed their music, and then what would be the point of them playing at all?! Unless there is going to be something new this year only called candlelight, I would be shocked if Off Kilter played during the Candlelight Processionals!

Likewise I just can not see them fitting into the Candlelight Processional as it has been staged for many years. I'll just wait to see something more than "Just heard this". I want to hear it from 'Disney'

Mmmm...I read this on another site and the person who quoted this is a CM..However another CM who recognised the person said she shouldn't have mentioned this as Disney had not yet announced this and her job could be in jeopardy..Maybe a wind up..Who knows...Time will tell...

I read they are coming back to do Xmas shows as well. Don't know if it's true.

It's possible that Disney could have a new concert in the works, but as always, you have to take anything that hasn't been announced officially with a grain of salt. It would be nice if they found someplace to fit them in, but I highly doubt that the Candlelight Processional will be it.

OK did Xmas shows in December with outside singers on the Mill Stage. If it's going to be more of that, they can keep it. It wasn't too good.

According to one of the OK band members, The Canadian Holiday Voyageurs will return the day after Thanksgiving. A female singer who fronts the show and sings all of the songs - some in French. No bagpipes. Here is a video from last year:

I saw them play with Jamie on guitar- he looked absolutely miserable. It was obvious.
