Diamondback Station/Queue Art?

[Beast1979]

As long as there are shade tents and vending machines, I could care less.

I personally like Top Thrill Dragster's theming the best.

The drag race and checkered flag theming, the bright red and yellow, and the "Ready To Go" song gets me so pumped. Not to mention the deafening roar of the train launching past me as I walk toward the entrance.

Imagine the same que your first time at the point after hours of great riding at night with the lights glowing and the adrenaline pumping.

What an experience for me.

Ready To Go was one of those songs where it immediatly makes you think of an amusement park when you listen to it. I love it.

[Beast1979]

^Love that song. Goes with TTD so well, I love TTD.

[Jasper]

What could Diamondbacks song be? I am thinking of something like Alice Cooper's Poison.

[Beast1979]

I'm trying to think of something western, but I can't think of anything. How about the Good PArt of "Magic Carpet Ride"!

Or that one Wild Wild West song that was used for one of the Maverick videos.

[Jasper]

Knights Of Cyndonia would be a possibility as one as well.

[Beast1979]

^You mean "Wild Wild West" By the Escape Club?

"Living in the Wild Wild West!" Nice song.

Yeah that's it.

[Beast1979]

Maverick's themed more to the western scene, while Diamondback is themed to a western snake. sorta different.

[Thrill_Biscuit]

I'm thinking Metallica:

[edit] nah. maybe too slow...

[fanofki]

Yeah, I know they are different but it's still western.

[Jasper]

Actually i would like to hear any Metallica song, some are more than others but most of them have great rhythm guitar playing and drums. Enter Sandman might be a good one, or Kick Start My Heart by Motley Crue.

[fanofki]

Knights Of Cyndonia would be a possibility as one as well.

That's a good song, although it isn't the most western, but I sure wouldn't mind it.

[Jasper]

^It kind of is at the beginning where the horse comes riding in and it kind of has that western twang guitar. But you are right probably not a good choice for a coaster with a snake theme.

Yeah I remember that part now, but I guess every song doesn't have to be totally western.

The BEST Que ever is Dueling Dragons at Islands Of Adventure in florida.

The entire que has something to look at... you actually forget you are waiting in line for a coaster. It feels like you are in a mideval museum

[Jasper]

Dueling Dragons is probably the best queve i have ever been through and sadly it had no line so i didnt get to stop and appreciate it as much.

[sheikra_rocks]

I find myself letting people go ahead of me so I can look around.

[Jasper]

^Well i hardly get any time to go to Florida so at this point i was just wanting to get on the ride.

[Dvo]

Knowing Kings Island, they'll probably just put 3 Chilivision TV's in the station and call it "themed." Now, in the high hopes they don't, I would love for it to have an awesome metal song, like "Tornado of Souls" by Megadeth. But I don't think too many families are going to like listening to metal, so I doubt they'll do that. I could see them going with a mainstream pop-rock band, though. Maybe Nickelback, or Seether (read: crap).

I've never been to Universal Studios so I can't speak too much, but I was impressed with Expedition Everest at WDW.

[Ashers]

I loved waiting in line for Dueling Dragons! The theming at Islands of Adventure is amazing. Every time you walk through to a different section of that park it feels like you are entering another world.

I hope Diamondback's queue resembles Maverick's....it never felt like we waited 2 hours when we waited through that line. Although I think MF's queue is awesome with the DJ and the mist fans. Listening to music while you are waiting makes the time go by much faster!

I have to agree with whoever said they feel like they are going to die while waiting for Firehawk! I think that is one of the worst queues ever.

[flightoffear1996]

Yea the line for Firehawk sucks. I think the best line at Kings Island is Flight of Fear followed by the Crypt.

[sheikra_rocks]

^ very true

[fanofki]

I have never been there, but I saw on TV something about Test Track (I think it's called) at DisneyWorld. The que there looked pretty good, but maybe someone that has actually been there has another opinion.

[JAHill]

I don't know why, but I would like the queue entrance to look something like this.

FYI, the area where you see the splashdown is a window in the building.

[Beast1979]

^Looks cool to me!

[KDCOASTERFAN]

Nah. Behemoth`s station is mostly steel and modern looking. I think KI will want Diamondbacks station to blend in more with Rivertown. I`d look for at least part of the station to feature some wood.

I think they'll go with a simple yet effective station house design much like what was used on both Behemoth & Dominator.

Although very interesting, it comes perilously close to being one long infomercial for General Motors. I usually bypass it, by entering the single rider line.
