Just a couple of things to note about the new "The Pinkerton Man" show.

It will not open until the fall of 2012, essentially replacing the bird show that was in Echo last fall.  It is my understanding that the regular evening show will no longer be called "GAC Nights", but in all likelihood still be a country music and dance style show.

They are not actually adding another level above the Courthouse building centerstage.  If you'll recall, there has been a gray structure above the red brick section for a number of years.  Until last year, the speakers were located in it and it was wrapped with a scrim that sound would easily pass through.  In the picture above, you see the roof structure with the scrim removed.  It will be redesigned to fit into the set and accommodate the stunt show.  No one is sure whether the set will end up looking exactly like the artist's rendering shown on that BlooLoop site but it should have that flavor.

On the KidsFest page, they are still calling it GAC Nights. I'm not saying you're wrong, but they talk about it near the bottom of the page. >>> http://festivals.bransonsilverdollarcity.com/mini-section/default.aspx?id=21

Tell him that most people leave as soon as the park closes, so there isn't as much traffic after the GAC Nights shows!

Trams! I cant beleive you have never seen the GAC show..! to a newcomer the show is great, good music, good harmony, good comedy, great dancing skits..   and after GAC there is NO crowd to fight.  It is busier walking up the up the hill to the city square, but after you get to the trams/busses..  NO problem..
Go see it!  tell the hubby i think he will enjoy it, with No driving problems!

That's probably right because I can't remember where I heard that.  Maybe I was just dreaming.
