It deals w/ the dogs. They are equipping them with a new set as well as a modified track to be accessible for the change. It's a longer story than that, but that's the gist. _________________ Doug Barnes

The latest is the lift track is now back in place and the end were the "Plot Twist" is near City Walk is now looking more finished. The new fence is up at that area and it looks great!
Hopefully it's all smooth sailing from here and no more set backs. _________________

Now I’m a big electronica fan. Artist like BT, Fatboy Slim, Chemical Brothers, Groove Armada, and DJ Shadow are just a few of favorite music artist. And I’m thinking man they are missing out. I don’t think this list is a blockbuster, but they could have done better. I hope more artist are added or improve.
Also, the country song list could at least have Toby Keith in that list. I’m looking at this list and boy I find the song list from a Guitar Hero or Rock Band game could have been used on this ride. Well, it might be a license issue here, but I do like the ideas of song’s being part of the ride and choosing them. I mean I had fun at Hard Rock riding Led Zeppelin, Rock’n’Roller Coaster starring Aerosmith at Disney, and Maximum RPM at Hard Rock even though I got the same song when you suppose to have a chocie, or Eagles Life in the Fast line. Having music on coaster is a great idea. Even when Space Mountain at Disneyland got a sound track and even had Red Hot Chili Peppers for a time as the music most people love it. At least that’s what I heard, I don’t know what the HARD CORE thought about that!
And Rap, I’m a big old school rap fan. Groups like Tribe Called Quest, De La Soul, Busta Rhymes, Ice Cube, L.L. Cool J, Gang Star, and Jurassic 5 are just what this ride needs. I mean hearing “Scenario” with the Bass pump up(if you can feel the bass on that ride) would be SLAMMING.
Or we can all make a request to have Season Pass theme song Enuff Z’nuff- “Wheels” as one of our ticket to ride songs too.
^Haha! Yes Stingray! You are the man, I'll request for it.
As for the list, I can't complain. I listen to a lot of underground metal so that's out of the question (unless Killswitch Engage or Lamb of God can get just a little bigger), but I also love older rap. Cypress Hill is a must for me and I would've preferred "So What Cha Want" for the Beastie Boys selection, but hey...
I agree with Tribe Called Quest (Big Fan of the early 90's stuff), also could've used some Digital Underground or Black Sheep, but whatever.
Still it's a great eclectic mix of hits and I'll be listening to some "Intergalactic," "Insane in the Membrane" and "Bring Me To Life" while riding this monster, however we will have to continue to drop the "Wheels" hint to all our Universal Studios friends. _________________ Doug Barnes

I'm confused and have been out of the loop for a while (pun unintended), what is this about the music? are you able to craft a soundtrack while you ride the ride? how long is this ride?
Audio
Each seat is outfitted with Polk Audio marine-grade stereo speakers that can push out 165 watts. Guests will rock to 90 decibels of music – and yet never hear the songs playing for other riders. This sound system - typically installed on wakeboard boats – gives riders an entirely new way to experience music.
Quote:
They pick their own music using industrial-grade touchpads that operate with the sophistication of an iPod. Songs from five genres of music will be pumped through individual sound systems that rely on all-weather speakers typically reserved for high-performance sports boats
Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit features the country’s only operating moving roller coaster load platform – meaning it uses a people-mover-style conveyer belt to get people to their vehicles so that riders and vehicles never come to a complete stop. This allows vehicles to leave the station every 23 seconds.
They make this thing sound like a people mover. I mean a omni ride system has more in common with this coaster then a roller coaster. 23 seconds, if only all coaster can have that much loading time.
