Just curious.... is Jim Badger, the singer /pianist still entertaining on any NCL ships?

Yup!!  Just saw him in the District Brewhouse on Bliss the week of 1/12!

He was great   I believe he will be joining the Encore when it comes out,  and we are booked for the Thanksgiving cruise.  We are booked on a cruise in April aboard the breakaway sure wish he could be on that ship as well

He is still performing on the bliss. Very entertaining guy. The only caveat would be that he repeats the same jokes each night. That being said, it would be extremely difficult to come up with new material each night.

Chatted with him at length on the 19 Jan Bliss cruise. He told me he would be on the Joy in the fall but would leave it just before my Dec 1st Mexico cruise. Wonderful, fun performer!

He was on 2/23 Bliss

 

He may have a website that shows his performance plan.

I saw it was someone named Beau, I think, currently on the Bliss. Any ideas if Jim will be returning?

This video from Norwegian Joy's 1 day inaugural LA cruise last week shows Jim Badger performing in District Brew House! I'm hoping this means he'll be there for my cruise June 1st!

Hey dpepper, just wondering where you got this information about Jim Badger on the Encore. We're on the 12/1/19 Encore sailing and would love to see him again!

[dpepper64]

When we where on the Bliss last Thanksgiving he mentioned that he was at that time scheduled to be on the Encore.  A lot can change between then and now.  Hopefully he will be on the ship when we are on the Encore this Thanksgiving.

Chatted with Jim at some length in January aboard Bliss. He sad he was moving to the Joy and would finish that contract around mid-Nov which is a shame as we're on Joy Dec 1st for Mexico! No idea where he'll be after Joy. Perhaps someone who recently sailed Joy or is about to might have more current info.

[Jagggg]

We're on the Joy in February 2020, cross fingers he extends his contract. Have been lucky to see him on the Pearl and the Dawn.

I have every reason to believe he is

[kbb655]

He most definitely was on the Encore for the Inaugural cruise (Nov 2) and will be on the Encore until December 1. I asked him because I will be on the Encore again Dec 8 and he will NOT be on that cruise. 

[Dancingal1262]

Just saw him several evenings on the Encore inaugural cruise...fantastic!

Watched him every night but his night off and loved every second! We were on the Encore for Thanksgiving! I believe he headed home when we did. Not sure when he will be back or who will be in his place.
