I hear this question quite often: "Did you guys need to get approval from the Eagles to do their music in a "tribute" fashion?
Well, especially for playing at Disney, we do! Here's a snippet from an article in the Orlando Sentinel about our upcoming shows at EPCOT this month (as well as all the rest of the happenings at the Florida Disney Parks):
"...Getting a slightly later launch will be the Sounds Like Summer tribute-band concerts at Epcot. The rock lineup begins June 12 and runs through July 31. Disney insists these groups be up to snuff in their styling.
“They must be approved by the bands they are paying tribute to,” says Alan Braun, associate creative director. Therefore, when the group called “Stayin’ Alive” kicks off the event, it has the blessing of the Bee Gees.
Concert times will be 5:45 p.m., 7 p.m. and 8:15 p.m. except on July 4, when the times will be 5:15 p.m., 6:30 p.m., 7:45 p.m. and 9 p.m."
Of course, the other "blessing" is being able to do this for a living. :)
