I also did the Disney AACB a "few" years ago, 1988. I had a blast throughout the summer. Disney brought in many great guest artist throughout the summer that were great to work with. Rich Matteson, Bobby Shew, Bob Mintzer were some of the best that I remember. I doulbled on the bass when we did the sit down / big band sets.
As far as the audition goes, I agree with what other people have said; dress nice, shave, and play music which shows that you have versatility in different styles of music, espcially commercial styles. If you double on bass , bass-bone, or piano, and can read changes, that is a huge plus.
It's a great summer experience, and you get to play with some great musicians.
Best of luck!!

Mike
