Mr. Christopher

Patience is a virtue. I think it'll run in due time.

I'm surprised nobody has noticed this, but the clock on top of Kings Island Theater is now functioning again.

The loudspeakers on top of International Restaurant are not new; they've been there for several years.

While everyone has their red pen out, I'm surprised nobody has brought this mistake up: I'm not sure what an "amenitite" is...

My personal favorite: Durga's Eyes http://k004.kiwi6.com/uploads/hotlink/6ac22120fs&titles=durga_eyes.mp3 It's just too bad those TechnoRays didn't live long...

I would be. Why let it take up valuable space?

Barely. I wonder if lights from a certain spectacular could be repurposed to the front of the tower...

I'm sure it's not that they merely realized that it needed to be painted after all this time, but that proper planning had to be made.

As its current incarnation as a Haunt show, it will most likely be tailored to fit a family audience for this run.

Before the "carnival" theme was moved from Coney Maul to Nightmare Alley, it played a 45 minute long track, so it's a bit tough to narrow down your search. Here are two tracks that feature your Ringmaster: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LhjEVO0_FoU http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LYYFOowsFfk As for the Howl-o-Fest music, that's harder to narrow down. There were separate tracks at Front Gate, The Picnic Grove/Waterpark Walkway, and the rest of the park; the latter being several hours long.

Don't know if it's in your price range, but Island Club Apartments is literally a minute down the road from the service entrance for the park. I believe they have flexible lease terms. http://www.myhillsapartment.com/island_club/content/index.html

If you're referring to Festhaus, those aren't LED. They're Altman Zip Strips and they were put up for Haunt last fall. There certainly isn't a written law on how to use a lighting fixture. You don't HAVE to use a cyc light just for lighting a cyc. Lighting is all about trying different things. There are methods and common practices, but that doesn't mean you always have to follow the crowd... you can change it up sometimes.

I wouldn't say the sound and lighting were upgraded. Certain elements were added on, but the core of it hasn't changed in a while. Don't forget the video rig either... the two projectors weren't cheap.

I meant twinkling in respect to the tower lights. The lights on the front certainly don't "twinkle". I'd be interested in seeing what this new system has in store for guests...

Define "twinkling"... Also, the different colors create visual interest. It isn't always yellow and deep violet. Would you rather have just white light like it used to be before the system was put in?

Those themes were written back in the day with lyrics, they were just aired with instrumental versions. It would look stupid for Way Too Much TV if all they did was dance around to instrumental themes. You have to add vocals.

Everyone's a critic around here ... I personally like the logo. It's a bit of old mixed with new. I can't wait to see the show!

They're performing on the 24th only.

With Pyramid Productions doing audio, you should hear it no problem.

I don't believe Crooked X is performing. There will be another group to fill their spot.

Collective Soul is performing at Timberwolf. Also, you can't miss the ramps where they're going... All shall be revealed today at 2:00 PM.

I'm surprised nobody's mentioned that all, if not, a majority of the que line TV's are gone. It's the same as it's been for several years, the only newer part being Rivertown's section.

It's programmed to shut off at that hour. Of course, that doesn't always happen and they may turn off earlier or later. Things with electronics tend to do NOT as they are told sometimes. They may also have been working on the lighting at that hour as well, as the only time we can test/maintain/program them is after the park closes, late at night.

Tower lighting shuts off at 3AM. I've worked past that hour too many times to know this.
