Hi everyone! D-Street (bottom, left) opened last week – we missed the Annual Passholder event (actually, we didn’t know about it until after it happened!), but it was fun to stop by and have a look around at all the Disney treasures from places like the Adventurers Club, such as the zebra display case (below, right). Hi everyone! Denise Preskitt from partner site Mousesteps.com visited Epcot for July 4th and has photos and video to share! Remember, I have recently re-released my previously retired DVD Epcot’s Star Spangled Holiday Spectacular. Now you can see what Independence day was like at Epcot Center in the early 90’s (for more information or to order, please click HERE). The Spirit of America Fife and Drum Corps made numerous appearances throughout the day (below, left). Goofy salutes the onlookers in his revolutionary outfit, flanked by Donald and Mickey (below, right).
Hi everyone! Denise from Mousesteps spent Sunday at ESPN The Weekend! She shares some of her thoughts and photos with my readers. I’d never been to ESPN The Weekend before – I actually didn’t realize it was held at Disney’s Hollywood Studios (how that got past me, I have no idea!) I originally planned to go on Friday, but ended up having to switch to Sunday. The day started out overcast and rainy, but it ended up being a great day to enjoy the event once the cold front came through. The Sorcerers Hat sets the stage for conversations after the motorcade – but is also used for live broadcasting. Below, the Sorcerer Hat gets the ESPN treatment.

Adventurers Club fans might spot Hathaway Brown (below, left). Broadcasting was done with the backs to the crowd (below, right).

This week I will be traveling back to Walt Disney World for a very busy week of activities. Highlights include the NFFC Florida Convention which will also include the NFFC World Chapter Meeting and a special Adventurers Club event as well as Epcot’s 26th Anniversary and maybe some Halloween fun! Epcot’s 26th Anniversary:
I will start my trip by visiting Epcot for it’s 26th anniversary on October 1st! It will be interesting to contrast what will be a low-key day this year to the 25th celebration from one year ago. I had a great time last year reminiscing about Epcot’s past and enjoying an unforgettable day!

For more information on this or other titles please contact Hello everyone, welcome to photo memories #8. In this edition I am featuring images from the early years of Walt Disney World’s nighttime entertainment district Pleasure Island.
You can notice changes to the outside of the island in these first two photos. The left image was taken around 1990 and the right was from this past year. Note the worn looking warehouse paint job on the older shot and the growth of the tree and upgrade to the bridge in the current photo.
The above were restaurants from Pleasure Island’s opening years. Merriweather’s Market was a food court that operated from 1989-1993 and was where Raglan Road stands today. The Fireworks Factory was a pyrotechnics themed restaurant (a favorite of mine) that operated from 1989-1997 and is where Motion dance club is currently.
Jessica’s of Hollywood and the XZFR Rockin’ Rollerdrome were both very short lived.
The Grand Funmeister was your original host of Pleasure Island (as seen on the West End Stage). The Comedy Warehouse originally featured a parody show called “Forbidden Disney” (which will be featured in it’s entirety on my upcoming Pleasure Island Classics DVD). As stated above I am currently working on a new DVD title featuring the Original Pleasure Island shows and performances. It will include the entire original New Years Eve countdown show and fireworks, The rarely seen “Forbidden Disney” show from the Comedy Warehouse, scenes from around the Island & the original nightclubs, various Adventurers Club Library shows and skits from it’s early years and more. If anyone has any suggestions on this new title please send them to the email address below. As always, if you want to request a future DVD idea, Photo Memory topic or comment on anything, just drop me a line at suggestions@JeffLangeDVD.com. |
