[lindyhop]

I was at the Park last night to dance to Stompy Jones. I've mentioned to various people who couldn't change the subject in time that Stompy Jones is the only band I've seen at Disneyland that has enough of a crowd at the end of the evening to do an encore and they're the only band I've seen that Disney allows to do an encore. The first time they played there they did an encore and Disney nearly freaked out but since then they seem to have somewhat accepted the concept of spontaneity.

Last night there was a decent crowd at the end but not a huge amount of applause/demands for one more song so the band didn't come back out on stage. But Elizabeth, the castmember who supervises the whole thing, walked backstage and brought the band out herself. That was a welcome change. Of course the regular dancers there are also APs so they aren't shy about telling her what they want and why they should get it.
