Matt Baker

When I first saw him I thought he was the biggest dork I've ever seen. It didn't take long before I started to think he was pretty funny, then downright hilarious. He should be hosting the tonight show or something. Does anyone know his background? He must have been a stand-up comedian?

I know he is a talented harmonica player. He used to work for Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines. His brother still does.

Quite possible his brother may end up with NCL eventually also.

We had the pleasure of having Matt on his 1st Dawn cruise in 2006. At that time I said he would be one of the best on NCL. We have had Paul Baya (very good), Colin Kerr (excellent), Matt Baker (very good), Rickie Mathews 2x (plenty of energy), Linda Minnekin (boring), Jimmy Kovell 2x(very good).

 

Jimmy Kovell will be coming back from vacation to the Dawn.

 

It will be fun to see who gets the new Gem.

Wiki Wiki Wah!

 

Happy Cruising,

Monty

I agree that Matt is excellent. I haven't been on a too many cruises yet compared with some of you, but no one I have seen has done a better job of getting everyone happy and energetically participating. He made me, a died in the wool wallflower, want to dance the night away! Loved him. Wicky wicky wah!!!

We noticed that too, but thought it was just because it was his first cruise on the Dawn in 2006. Paul Baya and Jimmy Kovell were both approachable and would stop and talks to us. Jimmy even bought us lunch at the sushi bar one aftetnoon. He also gave us a tour of the Dawn's bridge. Great guest relations!

 

Happy Cruising,

Monty

We were on the Dawn in June and had a chance to chat with him a few times. He's negotiating with network television in the US right now (didn't say which network) to do a sitcom. If that works out, it'll "Bye Bye Cruise World!"

I hope he makes it =o)

I didn't run into him on the ship so I can't speak for his guest relations, but with 2000 people on board I can imagine it would be hard to spend much time socializing.:)

I agree. As long as he made us laugh which he did, who cares about his PR. He runs around like a nut going to all these functions! Hot4acruise we missed you guys on the ship!

CNB82, yeah, it's too bad, we would have enjoyed meeting yall. Things were more hectic than I remember them being anyway. We brought the kids and they ran us ragged :)

Oooooo, sounds like fun. It all depends on when DB can get off of work, he has to do vacation picks in Nov. But it would be so fun if we could be on same sailing!
