One of my favorite places for (some strange reason) was the Enchanted Tiki Room. When I got older, we visited Disneyland every once ina while and never went to the Tiki Room. Last year I took some of my younger relatives to see the Tiki Room, remembering how fascinating it was to me as a child. When we got inside, it looked the way I remember it. But when the show started, my ears were assailed by the very poor quality soundtrack, backed up by the incessant "clacking of all of the tiki masks and flowers. I could barely make out what was being said by each character above the din. The soundtrack is obviously the original and has the original voices (for the most part done by the same voice-artist that does the voices for The Haunted Mansion, Pirates of the Caribbean, the old Monsanto "Innerspace" ride and others. I'm glad Disney is updating this wonderful attraction - one that we all hold dear. I only hope they do something to improve the audio quality as well. They could use the same script (although some of the material is VERY outdated and over most people's heads)and just use new voice-over artists. Just my two-cents ...It's MaiTai time! TTK
