Billy Ocean arrived at concert number 9 with us in attendance for this year’s “Eat to the Beat”, & man was I surprised. After doing a little looking I realized Billy Ocean was the guy on a good amount of movie soundtracks I grew up with, not just the guy who did “Caribbean Queen”. Knowing that, I went in more excited. And he put on a great show. Watching this old guy do his thing was great. When he walked out I was never expecting the energy we were going to receive. His performance spread pure joy & happiness throughout the theater. Highly enjoyed myself. There are still more concerts to come on our list for this year’s “2018 International Food & Wine Festival” at Epcot. So stay tuned.
"Kenny G" @ EPCOT 2018 Food & Wine Festival "Eat to the Beat"
Due to circumstances I had to attend our 8th concert alone. Which being alone at Epcot was a lot less awkward than I expected it would be. Kenny G was totally amazing at “Eat to the Beat”. At one point holding a note that I still question the possibility of, & I was there. Someone in line had told me he had seen him earlier this week somewhere & it< “totally blew his mind.” That was not an exaggeration. I enjoyed myself at this one a whole lot more than I thought I would. More to come from the Epcot’s 2018 Food & Wine Festival though. So stay tuned.
"Sugar Ray" @ EPCOT 2018 Food & Wine Festival "Eat to the Beat"
“Sugar Ray”! The band from the Scooby Doo movie!?! This was another that was high on my list from the jump for the 2018 “Eat to the Beat” lineup. Once again, I was not let down. Not skipping a beat, it felt like the 90s were still going strong. They put on an amazing show, & was so natural, made it look easy. Thoroughly enjoyed this show. Unfortunately, my camera froze up during the last 3 minutes, & that missed an epic transfer from “Fly” to some “Sublime”. That was just the icing on an amazing cake though. Here’s that cake with more to come from this years Food & Wine Festival at EPCOT:
"Plain White Ts" @ EPCOT 2018 Food & Wine Festival "Eat to the Beat"
I was pretty excited for Plain White Ts, but my smallest was even more so excited by far. Mainly because of their appearance on Sesame Street. Alas, the weather had other plans, & the concert was canceled 2 songs in due to lightning strikes starting to narrow in. Had a great start thought, & afterwards we grabbed some caramel popcorn. So… lose/win? The weather also made leaves fall from the trees, giving a music video feel. Which was really cool. Anyway we’ve got more “Eat to the Beat” concerts from the 2018 EPCOT Food & Wine Festival on our list so stay tuned.
"Baha Men" @ EPCOT 2018 Food & Wine Festival's "Eat to the Beat"
“Baha Men” was one of my most anticipated acts for this year’s “Eat to the Beat”, & they didn’t let me down at all. Due to technical difficulties I actually had to see this one twice, & it was well worth it. Second time was even better! These guys looked like they were having a blast! They were friggin’ awesome. Stay tuned, more to come from the 2018 EPCOT Food & Wine Festival’s “Eat to the Beat”!
"Postmodern Jukebox" @ EPCOT 2018 Food & Wine Festival "Eat to the Beat"
Check out Postmodern Jukebox, our first concert for EPCOT’s 2018 Food & Wine Festival “Eat to the Beat”. Took a little while to get used to my camera stabilizer. Fun show, with a little of everything. Didn’t know what would be coming next. Stay tuned, there’ll be more “Eat to the Beat” concerts to come!!
