How was the piano bar? I love the piano bar, but it all depends on the entertainer....any feedback yet? For those of you who haven't gone, but are going soon, please report back to here!! Thank you!

His name is Ron Pass...here is his website link:

He likes Billy Joel, Elton John type music, and has a great voice. He has a song selection list of hundreds of songs.....we enjoyed the piano bar...however it seemed like we heard the same songs every night. Someone in our party thought they were in the same order every night too. A few he has put in his own line here or there...and we heard those repeated as well.

I thought the music was very good in the piano bar. But, I didn't spend a lot of time there so I didn't notice if it was repetitious. But, he did a nice job from what I heard. Always had a nice crowd there.

Ron is an excellent entertainer. I also didn't spend a lot of time there to notice the repetitious music, but I enjoyed the time that I spent there.

The piano bar, and Ron, were fabulous. I highly recommend it.:D

We dropped in to Check out Ron, it was pleasant.. but we got a bit bored after about 35 minutes..

 

I have to say though he did a nice job..

Hi, everyone!

 

Heather: I'm leaving for vacation the very day you arrive on the Valor -- March 6. Don't know yet who will be replacing me.

 

As far as the song repetition... how do you think I feel doing this for 5 to 6 months at a time! LOL :rolleyes: Guests request the same stuff all the time. Piano Man, Margaritaville, Brown Eyed Girl, Sweet Caroline, Friends in Low Places, etc. I try to strike a balance between accommodating the requests and mixing up the tunes. But yes, the piano bar "regulars" are going to hear a lot of the same tunes from night to night. :D

 

Happy new year everyone!

Ron, keep up the good work.:D

[Snowball]

Ron - I will be sailing on the Valor in June. Do you have any idea who will be the piano bar singer then? I see that your date ends in March, and I'm not sure if you are coming back after vacation or not.

[Littlegoo75]

Hi Piano Bar Ron!!!! We will be seeing you on the Feb. 6th sailing. Do you do any Barry Manilow?

[staylor]

Feb 6th here, too. Can't wait! I might request Brown Eyed Girl, though...I hope you won't mind!:D

[Piano Man Ron]

I'll get word on my next ship assignment within a few weeks. I don't know yet where I will be.

 

I have a handful of Barry Manilow, including Copa, but the others, I must admit, I do as a tongue-in-cheek medley. ;)

 

I've toyed with the idea of posting my playlist on my website. What do you think? Sometimes folks who leave my cruise e-mail me and ask me for a copy of the song list so they can buy recordings of some of the tunes I play.

[jemingway]

Ron, I would say post the list.

[Cyt4SoreEyes]

Hi I was wanting to know who the CD is on the Valor I will be cruising June 5th 2005. Also when you find out who will be replacing you let us know ok..too bad we won't get to see you in action..maybe on another cruise..keep up the good work!! Thanks in advance, Cyt

Ron,

 

My vote is to post the playlist. Can't hurt. People can check it out before going oboard & maybe not ask so much for songs not listed.
