Judyjay Posted August 9, 2008 #26 Share Posted August 9, 2008 Did anyone else see Wavelength play in the Princess Theater? I would love to hear what you thought of the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bakermania Posted August 13, 2008 Author #27 Share Posted August 13, 2008 I see on their website that someone tagged them in a photo from their first theatre show performance. It looks AWESOME! Quite a step up from the Explorer's Lounge stage. I understand they're doing another show this cruise so maybe this weekend someone will tell us about it and/or have some pictures to show. Hope so!

tcrny Posted August 14, 2008 #29 Share Posted August 14, 2008 We took some pics I will post them shortly as soon as we download them off camera (little slow getting this done since we are back to work life back to crazy). We were on 7/28 which is the first sailing they did the rock concert in the theatre. Promise I will post soon ... ! Cathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Judyjay Posted August 14, 2008 #30 Share Posted August 14, 2008 Thanks Cathy, I'm looking forward to your pictures. I was on the CB the week before you and I really wish Wavelength would have done a show in the Princess Theater that week. I bet it was tons of fun.

Bakermania Posted August 14, 2008 Author #31 Share Posted August 14, 2008 Where are these pictures? I couldn't find them. I found them in their photo album titled 'tagged photos'. Someone tagged them during their concert, looks so cool. :cool: BTW, I think you have to be their MySpace 'friend' to view their photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Judyjay Posted August 14, 2008 #32 Share Posted August 14, 2008 That's why I couldn't see the pictures. I don't have myspace account. I'll have my son login with his so I can check them out. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bakermania Posted August 18, 2008 Author #33 Share Posted August 18, 2008 Judy I will be posting as soon as my laptop returns from being repaired. Im on my old desktop that freezes up alot so its useless to even try. Ill post back on here when Ive uploaded the photos. It could take a week before I get my laptop back. My friend that was on the cruise with me also has a nice shot of herself and the band. Ill get her memory card and upload that as well. She took some photos of me singing with them too. I had such a good time. If you live in NYC or vicinity you can come and see me with my band. We play out every single weekend. Hi Marge, just wondering if you were able to upload any photos yet?

BermudaPrincess Posted August 18, 2008 #34 Share Posted August 18, 2008 We just got off the 8/6 CB cruise and Wavelength and the ships band rocked the house down on the last night with a concert in the Princess theater. I heartily enjoyed it and they got multiple standing ovations - both before and after their encore. Show seemed to be the same mix that was posted for the previous cruise.

Bakermania Posted August 24, 2008 Author #36 Share Posted August 24, 2008 Great Marge, thanks! The band has now done three theatre shows, I sure hope someone will come on and tell us more about them! They've posted some photos from their first concert on their MySpace website. Looks pretty awesome I must say. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starz723 Posted August 26, 2008 #37 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Im anxious to hear more about their theater shows. I wish they did them when I sailed. Bakermainia..We sailed at the same time:D Awww..I wish I met you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Judyjay Posted August 26, 2008 #38 Share Posted August 26, 2008 My daughter just finished her contract on the CB so she was there for the first two theater shows. She said the shows went over great and Wavelength had a packed house both nights. She said the shows were really good. I'm glad they put those guys in the big theater. I just wish I had a chance to see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just wish I had a chance to see it. What position did your daughter have on the ship? Did you get special pricing being that you have a family member on staff? Also, how did she go about getting a job on the ship? I would love to play (I'm a drummer) on a ship during the summer. I am a teacher, so I am off for 2 months, but I hear contracts are usually 6 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Vacation Nut Posted August 31, 2008 #40 Share Posted August 31, 2008 Hi All I agree that Wavelength are excellent. On the CB sailing Aug15-24 they also did a show in the Princess Theater that was packed. I was wondering whether Sarge had compared the "So you want to be a rock star" with Wavelength on anyone else's cruise? It was really funny and one of the best hours of entertainment we had on the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing it is the same for the musicians, but I'm not positive. My daughter is part of the production shows. She had to go thorugh an audition process to get her job. Again I'm not sure what the process for musicians would be. There are several websites with information on cruiseship jobs. Just do a search and you'll find more information than I could ever give you. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elua Posted September 13, 2008 #43 Share Posted September 13, 2008 Hi Guys, It is a little different for musicians. My wife and I have worked for Princess for the last 3 1/2 years as a duo....great company to work for. If you are a drummer with no band, you would come on as part of the showband. That is the band that provides backing for production shows, variety acts and occassionally dance sets and special events. Contracts can run from a few cruises, (usually as a fill in) or some go for four months. It's usually whatever is available and what is worked out between you and the company. As a drummer, you'd be expected to be comfortable reading the charts, and to be fluent in all styles. It is a challenging life to get used to if you've never worked on ships before, in particular, the sharing of cabins and the rules and duties and so forth, but I would say that if you can do it, give it a try. It's a great life, and you get to play with and get to know some great musicians. Aloha, Dave Elua Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be well, Freddie Feddie, You're welcome. I'm glad Dave Elua had better information for you. My daughter finished her contract on the Caribbean Princess in August.

manmtnmike Posted November 18, 2008 #45 Share Posted November 18, 2008 (edited) I heard that the band "Wavelength" is on the Ruby Princess .... Does anyone know if they will be performing on the Ruby through Jan 2009? Thanks much!! Mike Edited November 18, 2008 by manmtnmike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bakermania Posted November 19, 2008 Author #46 Share Posted November 19, 2008 You're right, they are on the Ruby right now but they sign off Dec.20th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manmtnmike Posted November 19, 2008 #47 Share Posted November 19, 2008 You're right, they are on the Ruby right now but they sign off Dec.20th. Bakermania, Would you know if they might continue after that date or, if not, who would replace them? Thanks! Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bakermania Posted November 21, 2008 Author #48 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Well, I do know they're home for Christmas this year, their first in four years and they're not sure where they may go next. (I know Exotique is also onboard with them right now.) As for who replaces them, I'm not sure. Perhaps someone who's cruising on the Ruby right now could ask them? (hint hint) :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
