Greetings from NYC! I'm a fellow Disney music lover, and have been lurking around the online Disney sites for far too long. I finally decided to take the plunge and join in 'cause of a wonderful new show of Disney music I just saw here, and have officially taken under my "I-Love-Disney" wing 
I'm so glad another friend of mine who works at the World of Disney store here told me about the show...I would have been so sad to have missed it.
The show is called "Don't Tell Walt," and it is one of the most funny, moving, loving evenings of music I've ever heard. It features Bill McKinley, an amazing singer who sang in both Pocahontas and Mulan (how cool is THAT?!--I've actually met a Disney Singer!), and who has been a Disney fan all his life. He tells such beautiful stories and self-deprecatingly talks of being a "Disney Nerd"--just wonderful. And he sings all these great Disney songs you know and love, in ways that make you hear them like your hearing them for the very first time. There's even a song from an unproduced Disney stage musical of "Winnie The Pooh." Such fun!
Anyway, the show has gotten fabulous reviews, and he's only doing one more show, this Sunday, here in NYC. I know he's planning on performing it elsewhere across the country as opportunity permits, but if you can get to the show on Sunday, don't miss it.
I've told Bill that I've adopted him and his show, so he knows I'm not a stalker . If you'd like more information about his show, you can go to this link on his website:
