Chat room is up for tonight's show! http://www.blogtalkradio.com/FlashChat/Chat.aspx?cohost=y&HostUserURL=In-the-Loop

Ryan... I just want to say I am sorry. I am sorry for all the text messages you may have received due to Robb being on In the Loop. With that said, Robb is going to be on In the Loop Monday! Ryan, again I am sorry for all the text messages you may get after this Mondays show. Oh and a picture I took just for you in Orlando! It had a copy of BTTF 1 on the dash board!

Super cool!! My home park!! Cant Believe it!!! I did get some video of the park today.[/coastertube]

Im not seeing where it says Giga.. am I blind??

Just got back from the park and they are loading up the supports on trucks and they are leaving the parking lot. Kinda crazy stuff. Herd lots of rumors, and am not sure how much I beleave them. I did get some pictures and video from the park.

LoL Watermelon. We say it.. but it never really works all that well.

I had the camera so I don't think the slide would work well. Also the site has some stuff on it but its very vague as to whats going in.. other then a roller coaster.

It was over 100 stairs and it was 96 degrees out. HOT.

This gives you an overview of whats going on in the parking lot and site.

The wood is to put the supports and track on so the paint does not get scratched.

http://www.kdfansite.com/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=53 Just got back from KD. There were some other coaster geeks like my self out in the parking lot taking pics! Land clearing is really going fast. They are now working on an area behind rebel yell that you cant see from the tower. I got some shoots from Anaconda but still cant see all that well. The Anaconda employees were joking around that they are putting the monster rider from Geauga Lake there. Also trip down to KD is reported on my twitter page so if the track is there, the twitter will be the first to know! Also also... lol Kings Dominion said today that they will be doing specials all summer long via there twitter. So if you follow them and you get an update that says "Ice Cream at the (name here) is only $2.00 today" you just say hey my twitter said its only $2.00 and thats what you get. www.twitter.com/coastercrew <-- for that track twitter! www.twitter.com/KingsDominionVA <-- Great stuff!

LoL I wanted to go up and talk to them but PR and Security said NO. PR is giving the basic PR blurb of "We are concentrating on the 2009 season" and when asked about the parking lot they said "yeah the pot holes could use some attention". They did make it a point in saying that if I was to go film the "pot holes" I would have to stay back, or I would not be filming for long.

Got some video yesterday and edited up a nice little video. I threw in a cool time laps shoot I took earlier this year.

http://www.kdfansite.com/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=53 There are the pics

As far as what I hear, everything will be open at the park. I did not think they would open the whole thing up. Also the cookies they had out today were awesome! Me being a fat guy I head a few here and there well I worked. In fact I think I am fatter then the guy they have playing Santa! I did get the video done. If you want to check out the show.

They said all coasters will run. I know to run Alpi it has to be 40 or above. Also if you have a season pass, it will NOT get you in to this event. The event is cheap to get in to, and platinum pass members are half off, but you still have to pay.

We were at the event today and grabbed some pictures and video. We have more pictures at the Coaster Crew website. We also have the announcement video in editing right now and should be up in the next few hours. It will be on the In the Loop's Guide to the Midway podcast

Well as many know the history of In the Loop, the weekend review shows were done on Thrillnetwork.com. When we moved to Coastercrew.com we wanted to keep the In the Loop image clean (so much for that). We brought all the shows that were not over the edge. Will said we will start uploading shows in the next few days so people can give a listen to the old school stuff! It is true in the old shows we never did drop any big cuss words. But I still think the content we had in those old shows was a lot more edge then it is today. And for the record I tryed to get the guys to let us do a battle of the websites game show on the new format but they never ran with the idea. Maybe if it had some support from Jumboshrmp! Interesting point: When we left Thrillnetwork there were talks with Robb about In the Loop or a spin off show coming to TPR. But unfortunately we never did get a chance to work out the details. Would have been crazy fun!

I don't know if any one would be interested but I am going to work with Will Holder, he has all the old weekend reviews. I am going to try to get them up on the In the Loop Extra area. Back when In the Loop was doing the Weekend Review, Robb was on every two or three shows. Most people (including my self) think those were the best shows In the Loop ever did. We stopped doing them because of Robb and the direction the show was going at the time. Now three years later and we still ended up at the same place we would have if we kept doing the shows. Only problem is we took the really long way to get here!

Robb is welcome anytime! Nothing much gets done when he is on the show, but it normally ends up being a great time! If you missed the live show you can listen to a high quality version at http://www.coastercrew.com/intheloop.php?action=play&fileid=177 or keywords In the Loop on iTunes

She hosted but Will and I produced! I will let her know! Feel free to pass it on to her at KDfansite or email her at rose@coastercrew.com

We have some new pictures of the new Feelin Groovy show! Thanks for everyones comments on the podcast. The only bad thing we have heard was with the mix down of the audio. We will have that kink worked out by the next show. Will pointed out that Behind the Screams first show was a lot better then the first In the Loop Presents the Coaster Crews Guide to the Midway video show at Cedar Point. Man that Mic helps a lot!
