I can’t think of any place on earth with more things for you to do on your vacation than Walt Disney World. You can spend a week getting to one of the four theme parks when the gates open and keep moving until closing and still not see everything there is to see. Unfortunately, when most people think of Disney World they think the whole experience consists of oversized mice and robotic pirates. But beneath the pixie dust there is a huge collection of delicious restaurants, more than a few terrific bars, and a collection of great live music.
When you make it to Epcot, check your timesheet and see when Off Kilter is next scheduled to play. Then have a seat on a bench in front of the stage you’ll find next to the Canada pavilion. Oh, but before you do that, just take a short stroll to the Rose and Crown Pub in the neighboring United Kingdom pavilion for a pint. Then you and your beer can sit and enjoy a performance from one of the best Celtic-Rock bands you will ever hear.
This week on the American Public House Review Jukebox, we have a little sampler of what Off Kilter can do. The Green Fields of France is a gorgeous song, and the boys do an incredible job with it. But check out their website for more great stuff. They bring Celtic to a new rocked-out level of fun. But honestly, you must seem them live. After seeing them once, you’ll find yourself going back again and again. Who needs mice when you got great beer and rollicking music?
