Best Piano Entertainer on Carnival? (Part 2)

[CleveCruiser]

Seth Gibson! We saw him on the Freedom. We are now "obsethed"! :)

 

 

I LOVE that.... you have an "OBSETHSION" ! A bit of a tongue twister!!!:)

 

And I agree.... a very versatile young piano player...very enjoyable for everyone!

[CWcruisers]

Anyone sailed with Barry Meijer? Looks like he is fairly new to Carnival.

I am so stoked to hear this, since it appears he will be our guy on the Legend for the transitioning cruise. My sister and I are big piano bar folks and our only downer on the Valor last year was Dana Honey. Nice guy, good crowds, but he relied alot on electronics and barely seemed to play the piano at all.

Grouchpuss,

Inspiration cruise has come and gone. I was on that ship back in April. I will be on the Breeze in September and have never heard of the guy on my sailing. Adam something?

Adam is a young British chap. My wife thinks he is cute. We had him as a fill in for TC in Jan. He was the guitar soloist turned piano player. He was a lot of fun, but did not have any late night adult songs yet.

Thanks grouchpuss for the heads up. Unfortunately the naughty songs are my favorite songs. I think one of my faves was the Alice song.

Looks like we will have Seth Gibson on the Legend Panama Canal cruise. We did 3 cruises on the Dream in June/july with Martyn Lucas and he was very entertaining. He does some karayoke stuff but he is very good and we were there every night. Dennis

Give he a chance, I am a late night person as well but enjoyed my time with Adam.

Another vote for Seth Gibson!! In the past, we barely set foot in the piano bar mostly because we found the artists quite boring. Saw Seth the first time on the Carnival Freedom in July and we've been hooked since! Such a talented singer and just an amazing dude! He's got a great sense of humor and knows how to get the crowd involved in his music. Definitely the highlight of our trip!

Here is the latest list. I don't always get over here, but you can always find the schedule on that big social media site, just search "Carnival Piano Bar-barians"

 

But they still haven't scheduled the Freedom past November 1st.

 

*** A note about this list: This list is compiled from reports and reviews of current cruisers and reports from the entertainers themselves. There is no guarantee of accuracy. An actual date usually means that the schedule has been confirmed by either the performer or someone inside Carnival. Schedules are subject to change.

Has anyone been on the Valor since Ed Rocks started playing? Please tell me he's good! :D

Ed Rocks is a veteran Piano Bar Entertainer. One of the most popular on Carnival until he decided to take a break from ship life around 2006 I think. Even the other entertainers got excited when they saw his name return to the ranks this year. So I think you are in for a treat.

 

Happy Cruising,

 

Laura

[soccersharon]

Any feedback for Adam Sayer on the Breeze? TIA.

 

Sent from my phone. Typos are inevitable.

[John F]

We will be on the Breeze (12/6/14) and see where Christine Hetfield will be playing on the ship. Any feedback on her?? Many thanks!! John F :)
