Spetromagic Cuts

DisneyFanatic13 · 07-05-2009, 12:35 AM

Hey guys!
As I went to WDW MK on the 4th and watch Spetromagic, I noticed that some of the parade floats are missing as well as some performers. I know that Disney had to make some cuts, but how long has this been happening?

The second parade was fine. The first one just had the one float gone because it was broken and the characters were gone because they were part of that float and because one of the characters lights weren't working. I think it was Snow White that had to leave right after step-off cuz her lights were broken.

Ya...i dont think disney cut any spectro floats or performers......they were prob just broken

Oh. Then that explains everything. It was really short though. Some of the fishes were missing (like the family of fish). Did they have a malfunction or something?

There are regularly floats and/or performers missing from Spectro, due to either technical malfunctions or a lack of CMs. Some floats are more "temperamental" than others, and some are also cut in bad weather.

Yeah they were just broken.

My observations say that number one least brought out (even though I've seen it every time) is Carousel, and number two is Chernabog. Occasionally Little Mermaid fish/Ursula floats and finale floats will be missing and I once saw the parade without the float with the trumpeters at the beginning

Wow... I don't think Spectro is Spectro without the Trumpeteer Spectromen. I've grown to like them so much. It's just not Spectro without Spectromen I don't know how people think they are scary. I love them. Anyways they were probably run out of CMs. Or maybe it had to do with Fourth of July? I'm not sure
