Lou... 3,118 Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 Just to clarify, "Spirit of America" is the fife and drum corps not the singers. That's un-American!!!This really SMB!!!I love when they play God bless America.IIRC wasn't there a Fife and Drum troop at the MK?

devores 382 Posted August 28, 2014 Report Share Posted August 28, 2014 Just to ease everyone's minds, all of these acts/shows are equity. Meaning, they are not WDW employees so to speak. They are under contract with Disney. Contracts have end periods and foreign contracts have visa limitations. So, just because an act is leaving doesn't mean Disney canned them. The act themselves could have chosen not to renew. Their visas could be over and must leave the country for a period of time. It could be any number of things. And equity is done at certain times of the year so it is not uncommon for all of these acts to be up at the same time. BradyBzLyn...Mo 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Momof6....aka Marty 769 Posted August 30, 2014 Report Share Posted August 30, 2014 Why does it feel like Disney is getting rid of everything right before I go? I plan to be at Epcot 9/29. I keep wondering if I should change my plans to go to Epcot 9/26 or 9/27. But that would mean being there on more crowded days. I hate decisions. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lou... 3,118 Posted October 3, 2014 Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 Get over to Epcot sometime next week because the Canadian Lumberjack show will start performing.Some of their stuff is in front of the Off Kilter stage.Is anyone as excited as I am about this? I just can't get enough of watching foreigners chopping and sawing wood. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I just can't get enough of watching foreigners chopping and sawing wood. Are they Canadian? I thought it was called the Paul Bunyan Lumberjack Show. BTW- a group performing with that name has appeared at the Florida Strawberry Festival in Plant City every year. I have a strong suspicion that this is the same group of guys.

BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted October 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 This is the info WDWMagic posted recently... The 'Canadian Lumberjack Show' will debut at Epcot’s Canada Pavilion week beginning October 5 2014. Produced by the Florida based Paul Bunyan Lumberjack Show, the new experience takes the place of Off Kilter as the Canada Pavilion’s live entertainment act. According to the Paul Bunyan Lumberjack Show website, “The Paul Bunyan Lumberjack Show is similar to an Old Time Lumberjack Show and a great family entertainment, matched by none. In the Paul Bunyan Lumberjack Show or Timber Show, we use quality lumberjack competitors, also known as Timberjacks from around the world. The Paul Bunyan Lumberjacks are also the same lumberjacks you see on the Stihl Timber Sports Series, ESPN, and TNN. So if you are looking for a great Timber Show with real tough Lumberjacks also known as Ironjacks, The Paul Bunyan Lumberjack Show, is the type of Old Time Lumberjack Show / FAMILY ENTERTAINMENT you want.” Paul Bunyan Lumberjack Show has previously worked with Disney during private events, and brings over 28 years of performing experience. Disney has not yet released any details or confirmed the new act. http://www.wdwmagic.com/attractions/canadian-lumberjack-show/news/29sep2014-canadian-lumberjack-show-to-open-at-epcot%27s-canada-pavilion-in-early-october.htm Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lou... 3,118 Posted October 3, 2014 Report Share Posted October 3, 2014 Are they Canadian? I thought it was called the Paul Bunyan Lumberjack Show. According to the Orlando Sentinel Disney reporter and other websites, it is the Paul Bunyan Lumberjack Show, but it's being called "The Canadian Lumberjack Show".I've also read that they are a Central Florida group.If they're not Canadian, I want my money back. I don't want to see American lumberjacks at the Canadian pavilion. Edited to say, never mind. Mo beat me to the punch. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They were part of the free entertainment at the Florida Strawberry Festival- right on the same level as the pig races. I'll bet they work cheap. What a break for them.

Lou... 3,118 Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 Saw the "Canadian Lumberjack Show" with American lumberjacks no less, and because it's next to where many of the private events are held, I'll be forced to hear and see it more times than I care to, which is one.It's lame, hokie, and not my idea of Disney entertainment.I'm sure some of you red necks, and you know who you are, from FL, TN, KY, NC, SC, AL, GA, TX, OK, WI, MI, MS, VA, NH, WA, OR, ID, and WV, will enjoy it.Let me know if I didn't alienate you and I'll add your state to the list.

As I said earlier, if this is the same group that performed at the Florida Strawberry Festival, alongside the pig races, they are not Disney quality entertainment. But I am sure they work cheap. And that's all that's important to Disney management these days. TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DH used to be a logger in WA.He would probably be more interesting than the new 'show'. If Universal, Sea World, or Legoland were smart, they would pick up Off Kilter and sign them ASAP!!Great idea for another local park to pick them up. Definitely Disney's loss. I saw someone's video of the "soft opening" of the show. It was boring. This red neck is saying, "No, thanks."Can't see this show being something most people would want to see more than once.
