After reading for a while, I had something to say and joined. I'm Curtis, and my fondest dream is to be healthy enough when I retire to travel from park to park riding coasters. I live in NE Tennessee and don't often get to make distant trips to ride, but I manage to drive the 7 hours or so to Holiday World at least once a year, and I'm less than 2 hours from Dollywood, so I've ridden Thunderhead more times than I can count. Hope to finally make it to Cedar Point or IOA this summer, and will definitely be at Hard Rock sometime during their opening season.

I just came from Myrtle Beach, and went the the preview center. Whole Lotta Love looks like a pretty standard coaster- it looks like fun, but not something to "write home about." Hopefully the timing to the music will make a big impact. The great thing, though, from a business standpoint (and forgive me if I only skimmed all the previous posts), is that the zeppelin-shaped loading platform doesn't face into the park. It is right up against the road for maximum tourist impact. In fact, the coaster is right at the front of the park, and clearly visible from the main road into Myrtle Beach- VERY smart!
