Disney Channel in Concert was a reality series of recording artists performing in concert along with personal lives from all genres of music, from hip-hop, country and pop to classical and blues. They often promoted the artist's sales and popularity through aiming a teen audience. The promotional content for these concerts were hosted in a program called Behind the Ears hosted by RuDee Sade Lipscomb. The series ran from early 1997 to late 2001.

Background

Each show features a specially taped live concert; documentary footage showing the artist pursuing personal and professional passions; and interviews with mentors, friends and family. The concert specials typically lasted an hour, and they aired on Fridays, with reruns being shown after it aired on the network frequently.

Cancellation

Disney Channel took In Concert off the air in late 2001, as well as with music videos, citing the inability to receive a stake in revenue from the artists' CD sales and lack of exclusivity for the videos. However, they still aired music videos from songs featured in Disney's feature films and performed by artists on Radio Disney and signed by Disney's in-house record companies Hollywood Records and Walt Disney Records.

gollark: I don't think Christianity says much at all about technology. Cultural values accreted around it, maybe.

gollark: Maybe? I don't know. There are lots of possible societal organization schemes.

gollark: If you don't actually fix the relevant incentive structures, harsh punishments will just make things be secret and hard to regulate.

gollark: I'm sure the new ones will be better, as there are no general structural problems.
