Air Supply at Epcot Eat to the Beat

Air Supply at Eat to the Beat during the 2013 Epcot International Food and Wine Festival

On October 4, 2013, I went to the Epcot International Food and Wine Festival hoping to catch the Go-Go's.  To my surprise, I totally mixed up the days and ended up missing them.  Instead, the act performing at Epcot Eat to the Beat that day was the 80's duo Air Supply.  I got to the theater late so all the seats were taken.  However, I saw that the cast members allowed people to sit along the side ledges that were on the sides of the walkway to the seats.  The view was good from the ledges, so I decided to sit there.

I was able to catch the tail end of their first song that they performed, "Even The Nights Are Better".  I took a video of it using my Samsung Galaxy S3.

Starship Featuring Mickey Thomas at Epcot's Eat to the Beat - September 23, 2013

Starship Featuring Mickey Thomas at Epcot's Eat to the Beat at the 2013 Epcot International Food and Wine Festival

I had the opportunity to be at Epcot in time for 2013's Epcot International Food and Wine Festival.  While I always enjoy the food and drinks (and lots of those) at F&W, I really like the musical acts that Disney invites to perform during the festival.  This year, I watched Starship featuring Mickey Thomas on September 23, 2013 at the 8:00pm show.  I waited in line so that I can get great front row seats.  It was worth the wait because my seats were towards the front at stage left.  I knew that Starship's lineup has changed over the years since their glory days in the 1980s.  The question that I had in my mind was if they still had it to perform live on stage.  As soon as Mickey Thomas hit the stage, the audience was cheering and chanting for him to perform "We Built This City".  Mickey did not disappoint and performed "We Built This City".  This was one of my favorite 80s songs, and I frequently listen to this over the radio and XM.  The audience was singing along with Mickey to this song.  I have to admit, I did too!  Below is a video that I shot (using my Samsung Galaxy S3) of Starship performing "We Built This City".
