Vitalsign Posted November 28, 2016 #2 Share Posted November 28, 2016 I believe the band is Soundroom still with a girl singer As you say Top Men are very very good unfortunately the lead guitarist lets this band down Tom and Maris who were in Horizons on Celebration will be in Waters Edge along with David Morgan - reggae calypso and steel drums Marisa and Noel are in Tides Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okavango Posted November 28, 2016 #3 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Strumjam are already contracted to Spirit for next year (along with New Dimensions) so certainly not them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vitalsign Posted November 29, 2016 #5 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Polish band ended up in Waters Edge with David Morgan as not popular so Maris and Tom have done Medusa lounge this last week A trio is on this coming week and from next Tuesday a new Filipino band will start called Red Syndicate for the rest of the season As they're new can't say what they're like.

Seen Red Syndicate last year on Majesty, at the time consisted of Erick (excellant guitar player/vocals), his sister Roxi (vocals only, excellant ) also a good keyboard player and a drummer, if the line up is still as good a great allround band.

Vitalsign Posted November 30, 2016 #8 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Looking forward to seeing Red Syndicate then - shame no rhythm guitarist but maybe keyboard player will make up for that and the guitarist can play good solos unlike the guy playing a jazz guitar in Soundroom Thomson Spirit Oct 2005 Repo Palma to Sharm el Sheikh Thomson Celebration Jan 2007 Red Sea Magic Ocean Village Feb 2008 Western Caribbean & Central America Ocean Village Aug 2008 Eastern Med Ocean Village 2 Feb 2009 Eastern Caribbean Ocean Village Mar 2010 Eastern Caribbean Thomson Dream Feb 2011 Eastern Caribbean & Cuba Thomson Celebration Aug 2011 Eastern Med Thomson Celebration Apr 2012 Red Sea Magic Thomson Celebration Apr/May 2012 Repo Sharm el Sheikh to Marmaris Thomson Dream Feb 2013 Eastern Caribbean Thomson Majesty Nov/Dec 2014 Colourful Coasts Canaries Thomson Dream Jan/Feb 2015 Western Caribbean Panama & Cuba Thomson Dream Apr 2015 Transatlantic Sunset Thomson Majesty June 2015 Hellenic Classics Thomson Celebration Sept 2015 Adriatic Affair Thomson Dream Jan 2016 Mayan Treasures/Cuban Revolution Thomson Dream April 2016 Atlantic Adventure Thomson Dream June 2016 Iconic Islands/Adriatic Explorer Thomson Celebration Jan 2017 Cities of Gold Thomson Dream April2017 Atlantic Daydream Thomson Majesty Sept2017 Med Medley/Treasures of Med Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vitalsign Posted December 1, 2016 #10 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Sorry not sure what Costa Maya board is? We actually didn't call at Costa Maya did Cozumel twice. Do you mean the Mayan pyramids and ruins? If so we did that about six years ago and you could film then but not sure what you mean please advise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newbiewaves Posted December 1, 2016 #12 Share Posted December 1, 2016 sorry Costa Maya is on the Ports of call/Caribbean/CM forum I was asking re the fee to film ruin sites. Was trying to find someone that had gone as debate re what 'film' covered given the smart phones of today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vitalsign Posted December 1, 2016 #13 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Gosh we've never been charged to video ruins at either of the Mayan pyramid sites - unbelievable!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vitalsign Posted December 1, 2016 #14 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Okavango - thanks for that sounds great - hubby is a semi-pro guitarist and loved Jo Jo and the guitarist in Top Men Jo Jo let him play with band occasionally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jo Jo is a great guy,very nimble fingered for a big lad LOL, think one of is best pieces was Santanas Maria Maria when he was using a classical guitar , it does not quite come across to the same effect now he's using electric guitar.

Miller Cruiser Posted December 4, 2016 #16 Share Posted December 4, 2016 Locomotion were the poorest band we have seen on any cruise. They were simply not suitable for the clientele on board. We loved The Water's Edge, but moved to Explorer's when they were transferred there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sayaguru Posted December 8, 2016 #17 Share Posted December 8, 2016 The resident band changed for the 2 recent cruises we were on so in February, who knows? We didn't think either was wonderful. But the duo "2 Intense" from the Philippines were wonderful. They were originally in The Waterfront but halfway they moved them to Medusa and it was packed every night.
