Finis Henderson.

Since I grew up watching Love Boat, my favorite headliner was Charo whom I saw on Adventure of the Seas. She was exceptionally talented, too, and very entertaining.

Saw Finnis Henderson on the Indy back in December 2012... absolutely tremendous! A reservoir of talent. I have also attended a couple of the Beatles tribute groups... one was Rain, don't remember the name of the other, but enjoyed both thoroughly. The Texas Tenors were right up there as well.

Finis Henderson.

 

Agree. He was on our first cruise and we thought all of the entertainers would be of the same caliber. Nope! Had him on again in 2013. We enjoyed him just as much the second time.

We've seen him twice too. I was surprised at how much he had updated his show to include some of the latest popular music. Incredible performer, and a tremendous voice.

She's the first one I thought of too. I never realized how talented she was with the guitar. It was also fun when she pulled Brian up to dance with her; fortunately I had the camera ready.

Jeff Dunham was by far our favorite, that was a number of years ago, and I assume he would be too expensive now.

We've also seen Finis, and agree that he's a wonderful entertainer.

 

We enjoyed The Unexpected Boys, who did a Frankie Valli/Jersey Boys act that was outstanding!

Bobby Vinton many years ago but I can't remember which RCI ship it was on.

[Retired LEO]

Bowser from Sha Na Na. Full of energy.

Forgot to add El Gaucho on my previous post. Enjoyed his show a couple of times.

Karen Grainger was awesome. Her impersonations were spot on and she had an amazing voice. :D

On two different cruises on Adventure of the Seas, we saw and loved: "The Drifters" & then two years later, "The Platters". Great stuff!!

[cb at sea]

Can't remember the names of ANY of the performers! But, most were quite good!

[Scotty G]

El Gaucho on Jewel OTS and other ships. A very talented guy and fast moving show.

We saw Marty Allen (from Allen and Rossi on the Ed Sullivan Show) on a Brilliance TA in 2010.

 

He was amazing! I don't know when I have laughed so much at a comedian.

 

He is pretty well up in years now, but was just as funny as ever.

[George C]

about 1990 we saw Al Martino, who had many hits including the theme from the "Godfather" he brought my mother in law on stage and sang a song for her and on same cruise acemdey award winner Red Buttons did a show very funny man. We also saw Captain and Tennile twice in late 1990's both time on Thanksgiving week.

[Life is Good Cruising]

The first thing that came to my mind was a band on the Explorer last month. The band was called "Blaze of Glory" and it was a premier Bon Jovi Tribute. If you closed your eyes you would have thought you were at a Bon Jovi concert, people were dancing in the aisles, they were excellent!

Jerry Lewis on my honeymoon cruise Jan 1992 on the Monarch.

[Cruiseswithfamilyornot]

Many years ago, we saw Beatlemania which was awesome. More recently, The Unexpected Boys were incredible, and i saw Jersey Boys on Broadway twice and still thought they were great!

[delirious9876]

Thanks everybody. A real mix here :-)

[Susie51]

RAIN, many years ago, because the concert was like watching the Beatles perform. People were on their feet and clapping for a good part of the show.

We saw Mo5aic on the Allure last year. Five guys singing a Capella. Incredible.
