bobsfamily-slide was working the entire time, my kids (16, 12, 10) all LOVED IT. As a matter of fact several times when we were at the parks in the afternoon the younger ones wanted to go back to go swimming (and we have a pool at home!!) Honestly couldn't tell you about the band, we were at the parks most of the time. The dive-in movie was fun although the setup is a bit awkward.
