Generally four new floats every year, mixed in with the "classics" (riverboat, gator, jazz hall). I think they missed a year or two when Potter construction ate up the budget but shouldn't be an issue any more.

I don't see Summer Concert Series listed on the Annual Events page.

I don't believe there is one this year, they just extended Mardi Gras. Parks will already be busy from Potter opening around the time the first/second Summer Concert would be.

^ I know. The previous posts noted that Summer Concert Series was PROBABLY no more, so I was just adding to the list of evidence.
Not proving anything, just saying it was discussed on page 1 as to why it's probably not showing up on events. We can't really deal in absolutes until Universal says it's gone.

Ha! I guess Barenaked Ladies had a sudden opening in the central Florida area that weekend.
Felt old that I didn't know two of the performers, but one's a new on the scene country artist, other is a Christian rock band, so wouldn't have known them in my teens either.
Not the strongest line-up ever, but a nice mix of genres/eras. No one a must-see for me, but 4 or 5 I'd probably hang around Monsters Cafe area for.
