Universal Mardi Gras Plans Revealed (sorta)

This year's Mardi Gras celebration at Universal Orlando kicks off February 7.

So far, Universal has released the line up of live acts:
Feb. 07 -- KC and the Sunshine Band
Feb. 14 -- Frankie Valli & the Four Seasons
Feb. 15 -- The Village People
Feb. 21 -- Ne-Yo
Feb. 28 -- Pat Benatar (with Neil Giraldo)
Mar. 07 -- Barenaked Ladies
Mar. 14 -- Montgomery Gentry
Mar. 21 -- Collective Soul
Mar. 27 -- Boys Like Girls
Mar. 28 -- Kelly Clarkson
Apr. 04 -- MC Hammer
Apr. 11 -- Trace Adkins
Apr. 18 -- Nelly

Each star will have an opening act you've probably never heard of. If you're curious, check here.

What we're not too sure of is where the shows will take place. The old location is now a construction site for the new Rip, Ride, Rockit coaster.

Universal says its building a new, permanent live performance venue. Stay tuned.

Those aren't really opening acts. They're the New Orleans band that's playing those days. They usually play on a different stage.

I've heard, but can't be sure, that the new stage is the same place the old stage was.
