DHS - Mulch Sweat n' Shears

Here's the thread that will rock your face right off your face!

 

In honor of Labor Day week, here are some of everyone's favorite "laborers."


Working at playing

 

This thread needs a little Morris:

 

Craptastic. Wow. First Epcot kills off all worthwhile entertainment - and now just about the only reason I even bothered to go to DHS is going away.

 

Well I was even more disappointed! Went on Friday to see the band, since it would probably be the last time I'd get to see them - and apparently Morris pulled a Bruce Jenner and was now going by 'Mia Mulch'.

 

Mia's pretty good, but she's no Morris. Her act is pretty much the same but with a few modifications to allow for the differences in gender and CM.

 

As you probably gathered from the shirt thread, I was able to watch several shows during their next-to-last week on the job. I'm posting several of them this week.

Starting off with a group photo.


Morris and his family

One of my favorite Morris gags is where he grabs a guest's phone and makes them a very special video.


Smile, Hedge

 

My September/October trip was thankfully devoid of those annoying South American tour groups (though a large percentage of the conversations I overheard were in foreign languages). One tour group that stood out was comprised of Buddhist monks heading towards the Indiana Jones stunt show. Later in the day, while watching Mulch, Sweat n' Shears, Morris stopped mid-schtick and said "Sorry, I'm distracted. I have to be in that picture." With that, he and the entire band ran down the Streets of America and asked permission to join in the monks' group photo. This is why we love Mulch.


Hey, hey, we're the monks

As the days wound down, Mia Mulch sported this amazingly appropriate set of mouse ears.

Morris and Mia manage the band, so there must be a band to manage. Here are some shots of the band.

The Hedge and Axe on guitars.

Buzz on keyboards.

And Sticks keeping the guys in sync.


Beat it!

 

Thanks, John. Since they performed right on the streets, they were able to work with the crowd much more than Off Kilter and the British Invasion/Revolution. That's part of what made it so fun - you never knew what might happen.

 

Gotta throw in my Morris composite shots here:




A consummate showman!

 

Once again Mia Mulch uncovered world-famous cowbell player Miss Cling Clang in the crowd. This time, she was even in disguise. (Actually, it was Dapper Day at DHS.)


A cling and a clang

 

Here's another one of Mia. She's reaching for a high note.
