This guy is a phenomenal piano player - we requested "In the Mood" and he went into a complex, cascading boogie-woogie version of the Glenn Miller classic, and played "Happy Birthday" as well as several Disney movie song medleys and ragtime gems. If you are at the Coke Corner and he is playing, stop and listen for a while and be amazed.

Mary Poppins was extraordinarily gracious and warm, putting a huge smile on my Mom for her 91st birthday. We saw her again later in the day and even after a long day of greeting kids and signing autographs in 94 degree heat she was still extremely polite and gracious. But then we all know that she's practically perfect.

Billy Hill and the Hillbillies perform at the Golden Horseshoe, entertaining with expert musicianship and a fast-paced show. The jokes seemed canned and scripted, but the music was fun and you couldn't help but clap your hands and tap your feet.

The White Rabbit and Mad Hatter make for a comic duo but it's really the Mad Hatter's almost stream-of-consciousness delivery of silly remarks that power the act. I can't remember a single word he said now, but it was one comment after another, about every 20 seconds, and each one seemed funnier than that last. Plus that maniacal laugh. There was a table of 4 next to us who were celebrating 2 birthdays and he went over to that table for about 3 minutes and had them laughing so hard that they were spitting out their Coke. That was undoubtedly the highlight of their day.

They sing, they dance, they interact with guests, they ride a bike built for 4 - is there anything the Dapper Dans can't do? A Disneyland classic for 50 years is still going strong and popular.

So who are your favorite live entertainers at the parks?
