When the
Pleasure Island clubs closed in 2008, club name signs were removed immediately from
Motion and
8TRAX but most of the other names remained visible for years to come. One year ago this month though,
Disney crews came in over several nights and removed the last bits of signage from those that still had them standing. It was as if they wanted to snuff-out any possible links to their
PI past! Curiously though, by the end of the year they had brought the memories back anyway with
Comedy Warehouse-branded shows at
Disney Hollywood Studios, private
Adventurers Club shows for castmembers and travel agents and an
8TRAX-branded club night aboard a
Disney cruise ship! And we currently have that hot rumor that
Mannequins and
Comedy Warehouse are coming back in some form!
So it was surprising to see the
Disney Parks Blog do a story about
Comedy Warehouse. It's all under the guise of National Tell A Joke Day and the
Monsters Inc Laugh Floor. Except that most of the story including all three photos is about
Comedy Warehouse. The
Parks Blog is a social media mouthpiece of
Walt Disney World. Nothing is posted on there randomly. Why are they invoking memories of
Comedy Warehouse? We have to assume they did it on purpose!
i just got off the disney dream. 8traxx night is a mere 20 min "show" and then the dj plays todays top tunes. i was sad. i want a night of 80s. although dj mike west was onboard. pretty awesome and hot too.
