Rare MeganGC1983 Posted January 28, 2023 #26 Share Posted January 28, 2023 I had a friend in a band play on this. Looked like a lot of fun. Stage was huge. Sound was off in the comedy club. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sound was off in the comedy club. Don’t know if you remember when I was so confused about cookie being scheduled to be on Magic for just one week. This was the week. Now it makes sense that they would need two CD’s for a week. Edited January 29, 2023 by Saint Greg 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder how this is logistical possible with the short time around with setting up, tear down and hauling everything on/off the ship before and after this special cruise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was wondering if they start tearing that down at night or wait until the morning. Imagine the noise if they work on that all night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was trying to figure out how they still had a bellyflop competition when the stage covered the main pool. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, dang. Looks like they COULD stage "my" music cruise on a Carnival ship instead of a Freedom-class from Royal. I kept thinking "these tiny pickled egg sandwiches are okayyy, but I want my Guy's Burger!" 😄 On 1/28/2023 at 5:05 AM, Honolulu Blue said: Yeah, these music charters are very expensive, but you can get premium seats and possible extra access ("Oh look! That's Greasyhaired Rockstar grabbing some lasagna at the trough! Let me go get his autograph!!) When you account for that, the value evens out a bit. The price for the 70,000 Tons cruise works out to about 3x the price of a regular cruise...but when you take into account the staging, the production, the cost of paying the bands and/or providing them staterooms, etc., it's not unreasonable. Star Trek: the Cruise actually costs more...and you get significantly less free access to the actors and guests. On mine just-completed, we ended up dining in the MDR next to three bands at once. 😄 On 1/28/2023 at 11:22 PM, shof515 said: it looks like they built a temporary stage above the pool area.

I was wondering if they start tearing that down at night or wait until the morning. Imagine the noise if they work on that all night. Typically they drain the pools the night before and as soon as the ship docks -- preferably early -- they begin hauling stuff onboard with a truly ginormous crane, up and over and onto the pool deck. (They are not allowed to use Deck 0, I-95 or the marshalling area during turnaround day.) That process takes pretty much the entire day up until sailing. On the 70K Tons cruise, the pool-deck stage ("The largest open-air structure at sea") isn't finished until after midnight and the first performance now starts at 10 am the following day, although they've had rosier hopes in the past. Not. Anymore. 😄 The last shows on the pool deck (on 70K, anyway) finish at around 1 am on debark morning and the offloading process again takes the entire day. As I said, we pay a high price for such an event...but it's not unreasonable considering what we get. I still wanted my Guy's Burger or a burrito from Blue Iguana, though. 🙂 Edited February 8, 2023 by Pellaz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
