Do You Want Celebrity To Bring Back the A Cappella Groups?

[happygran]

I really enjoyed them..........sometimes......& would love to see them onboard again.

 

Surely it's best if there is a wide range of musical genres to suit every taste.

 

I'm sure we're not alone in that, it depends on our mood...........sometimes a classical strings group, other times jazz..............right over to music to dance to (and I don't mean ball-room, but not rap). Each one has its place..........and we enjoy them all.

 

So, yes, I'd love to see them back..................

I agree with that 100%. Even if it's something that doesn't interest me, I'm all for having a wide range of entertainment choices. It would be extremely boring if the entertainment choices came down to a house band playing some sort of rock music in one bar, a solo guitarist playing some other rock tunes in another bar, or some DJ spinning rock tunes in a 3rd bar (and I'm a fan of most rock music)....

[Champagne Cruiser]

Yes, absolutely!

[Presto2]

Only if they are in tune .........

Variety is the spice of life. I agree with happygran and Paterson3 that we need more variety to suit every musical taste.

Well I think they may be regret getting rid of the accapella groups since they are so in right now. I think they should fire the none out of the box thinker.

 

 

Remember to always enjoy your cruise, and don't sweat the small stuff.

Me stupid. Me no understand your post.

My wife and I have enjoyed listening to an a cappella group entertain us on our past cruises. We felt it added a touch of class and ambiance to our cruise. Do you want Celebrity to bring back the a cappella groups on their ships?

 

Absolutely, yes!

[red919]

Yes! Please bring them back.

[judyfssw]

I agree with all of the above who said YES. I've missed them on this cruise.

[lizbeth]

Dear Celebrity -

 

Yes, please bring back the a cappella groups! We've loved hearing 3 different singer groups on our last 3 cruises. Lemon Squeezy was the absolute best!;)

[hypercafe]

Yes !!!

[cruise47]

We also missed that group. They added class to the cruise line.

[cruisinlawn]

Yes, we enjoy them as well. Disappointed we won't see them on Silli sailing next month:(

[SantaFeFan]

Don't care. If there and I come across them, I will listen for a bit, then move on. If they aren't there, I don't miss them. I certainly don't equate these groups to "class". They are just another form of entertainment, and one that gets boring pretty quickly.

[DancerOT]

I love the acapella groups! My favorite was Cat's Pajamas from a cruise many years ago. (I still follow them on facebook). As a early-mid 30's person, I am part of the demographic X is trying to increase. All of my friends like acapella groups, so it is a definite yes to bring them back!

[Chazteach1]

We liked Lemon Squeezy a lot!!

Surprised that they haven't brought them back yet with the popularity of the genre right now.

[Blue Skies]

YES, we would love to see them return.

[Hlitner]

No. Could care less. We would just like to see more excellent Phillipino bands (they are usually very versatile and excellent) like we had on our recent Eclipse cruise.

The debate has been passionate on both sides. People have strong opinions when it comes to music. So far, we have 41 votes for Yes and 52 votes for No.

[takichum]

I vote NO. They are boring and have so little variety in their songs. I asked a group on the Millennium a couple of years back to sing a Flying Pickets classic and they didn't know of it. Some use they were.

Just got off the Eclipse. The piped in music is horrific! It is in the lounges, especially the Martini Bar, adult pool area and other public venues when live music is not available. Talk about a hammer to your head!! While I did enjoy the Accpella groups, and do not want to hijack this subject- why doesn't the ship stop that horrible piped in music.

We really enjoyed the Accapella group on one of our past Celebrtity cruises. And we missed them on the next cruise. We noticed they were gone and it disappointed us. DH and I vote to bring them back- great music sung by extremely talented singers. They always drew a crowd that enjoyed their talent.

[phoenix_dream]

I already voted and commented once, but wanted to jump in again. To me the issue is not necessarily that I need/want that type of group to be brought back again. The issue is that they were removed but not replaced with anyone else. The lack of live music options was very noticeable on our last Celebrity cruise (Summit). DH and I commented on it virtually every day. Almost impossible to find a place to sit and listen to live music before dinner while enjoying a pre-dinner cocktail unless you timed it to coincide with the shorter-than-the-past pre-MDR dining times in Rendezvous. We would look at the daily and shake our heads in dismay that we couldn't find any venue at all with live music. Canned music is ok, but I can get that in an elevator!! I have always considered having nice, live music both pre and post-dining a significant part of 'modern luxury'. The string quartets in the dining room some nights was a very good example of this. Some may like canned music, but it does not equal 'luxury' by anyone's definition.
