This morning, April 13, Walt Disney World Resort announced that it will be releasing the full song list and opening date for Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets soon.
Song List Announcement
In the announcement, someone off-camera hands Animal a list of all the songs. Animal desperately wants to know the song list and reads it with enthusiasm before saying, “I can’t read.” So we’ll just have to wait until Thursday!
Check out the announcement below:
Opening Date Announcement
After the teaser with Animal was released, we noticed that Disney Parks Blog updated its site with a countdown that included the opening date as well. The countdown included the caption from this morning’s teaser, which they posted with the caption “Ready to rock 🎸.”
The Electric Mayhem: One Night Only! With the help of our friends at Muppet Labs and a very fast limousine, we’ll take a twisting, turning, and screamingly fun road trip across Hollywood to reach the concert in time.
Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Teaser
Disney Parks released a teaser image this morning as well. Along with the image shown above, Disney Parks simply wrote: “Ready to rock 🎸.” The image appears to be just a section of an Electric Mayhem road case. The road case is black with decals and other labels on it, including a large picture of Kermit the Frog’s face.
On the bottom right-hand corner is a decal that reads “Original Idol,” and a guitar pick beside Kermit’s face has “LK” on it. Perhaps the decals are hints as to the songs that will be featured on the reimagined ride.
Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets
Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith closed permanently on March 1. Check out our last look at the original version of the roller coaster.
Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring the Muppets will still take guests into G-Force Records on a V.I.P. tour. But the studio has been taken over by Muppets.
G-Force Records was bought by Scooter’s uncle, J.P. Grosse, a real estate tycoon and owner of the Muppet Theatre. He put Scooter in charge, and guests will meet the manager in animatronic form in the new pre-show. Guests will also see animatronic penguin audio engineers, Miss Piggy, and Kermit on screens, and the Electric Mayhem in the recording studio.
To reach the Electric Mayhem’s concert across town on time, guests board limousines altered by Muppet Labs. The ride’s scenery and landmarks will feature a Muppet twist, and guests will hear the Electric Mayhem playing iconic hits.
What songs do you hope make the cut? Let us know on social media!
