If it is being done here where else will it trickle down to????  
Wow. Fastpass ONLY.
I don't think this is right.

Wow. I'm at a loss. Either these characters at these locations are exceptionally popular, or not popular at all (so they need to use FP+ for scheduling).
I just don't know why else they would turn people away from waiting in line for a character. Just seems like a good way to really irk guests.

It looks like that could happen. Schedule your rides, meet and greets, parade, food, and bathroom breaks. Next up FP+ and ADR for transportation.

Pretty soon we'll be reserving fastpasses just to reserve fastpasses...

TRICIA JONES: I heard that you were going to propose to Brandi Svenning at some theme park. When are men going to learn that women want ROMANCE, not Mr. Toad's Wild Ride...
BRODIE: Hey, now, be fair. EVERYONE wants Mr. Toad's Wild Ride.

Up until now I had no real issues with FP+. IMO this is just unnecessary, hopeful it's a test that will fail.

Wonder if the characters are interactive in some way and that is why you will need the band? Just a guess.

Seems simple to me. Its crowd management. Make everything fp+ so you have to choose and you can force people into every attraction thereby managing the crowds.

If it's scheduling help for not so popular characters, why does it need to be tier 1? What a pain. We met Pooh in Epcot 3 times on our last trip with minimal wait (and once without waiting at all!) I don't think some people know he's back there.

I actually had a fast pass scheduled for this last Monday. On the Sunday prior I received a call saying it was changing back to a stand by attraction again and I would need to choose another experience

Good news. I wonder if it was a mistake or they rethought it.

Maybe they were just waiting for people to start screaming about it on the Internet so everyone would know he's there.
