I soooooo wish I/we could go. Sadly there is no press pass for this event or even discount for press :'( Kinda sad considering how much we promote Hard Rock Park really. But the price tag is just too steep for us to be able to swing it.
This site is so much more of a passion than a business if you will because we don't make any money from running it (except for the occassional ad-clicks which are so miniscule, they don't even cover the cost of hosting the site I don't think LOL). But we really do enjoy the news, comraderie, and socializing with others that have the same passion for theme parks and Hard Rock Park. So I guess we can't really complain :)
But back to your original question - we are not attending but we are trying to procure some photos and information from those that do attend to be able to post back for all of us folks that couldn't due to whatever reason :) Keep checking back and see what we can get!
Yor idea for the underwater projection with Justin and John sounds interesting, rather or not they would actauly do it is to be seen lol. since The Moody Blues will be coming to HRP June 3rd. I would love to be in 1 of the 2 cars they are on to see thier reaction to the ride and if thy have ideas for it.
As for my signed Moody Blues t-shirt it was signed on November first by band members Justin Hayward, John Lodge and Graeme Edge. I'm not quite sure if I would have had any of them jump in a nearest pool though, lol. This was at the announcement of Nights in White Satin but no one had any idea what it was really going to be yet.
Wow that has gotta be the most unexpected comment I've gotten in a while (LOL). Um, yeah, to answer your question - beaches around here do not ban speedos around here. Its not too far fetched to see men "strutting" in their speedos on our beaches but generally they are always older. Most (if not all of the younger crowd of males) wear looser fitting swim trunks.
As for the last question about Chris "tucking" himself in a speedo - I know what he's got and I don't need the rest of the beach being jealous ;) So I prefer him in the looser fitting swim trunks thank you.
What!? who signed the autograph? If it was Justin, I would have told him to jump in the nearest pool and filmed him!. Now I am mad, did they approve the ride, with a..... greasy track? You must like them too, I am one of the few men who do.
Ack! Sorry I didn't reply to your comment sooner! Neither Chris nor myself were feeling all that great yesterday and after work I was out for most of the night. So sadly we missed last night Volunteer Concert :(
That is a really neat idea about a sectin of underwater video of the ride! I don't want to say too much since a lot of this ride is kinda spoiled already but I will say that there is nothing like that so far in the ride. If they did something like that it would be amazing if they kept the video in 3-D and the guys came up and looked like they were doing something at you (not like waving but something interesting - like splashing water on you!).
Also I have met the band members when they first came to announce the ride back oh when was it? Heck I don't remember the date but I got a Moody Blues signed HRP shirt from the event :D
THough I am middle-aged, I still like to go to amusement parks. I work in a health care field where I process a lot of paper but I also know about building maintainence and like to see how things work. I have also been a stage hand and like theming and decorating. Picture will be coming soon

Since we missed this band in their hayday by a few generations it was a real eye-opener but very enjoyable. :)
