Hey Gay Head, I am on the same cruise.

 

Ben Gentry will be in the Piano Bar then. I was on the Magic with him last month and he was awesome.

 

have you joined any other roll call's yet? There is an active one on another site that you can see the faces of those cruising with you...

Hi Ho Fellow PB fans,

 

Here is the latest schedule hot off the press. Please keep these things in mind about the schedule: 1) It is ALWAYS subject to change; 2) Yes there are gaps in between dates, it just means they haven't scheduled anyone yet; 3) This list always contains the most current information we have. As soon as we get any updates from the performers or other sources, the list gets updated. So, if it's not on the list, we don't know it yet (and it probably hasn't been scheduled by the office yet.)

An actual date usually means that the schedule has been confirmed by either the performer or someone inside Carnival. Schedules are subject to change.

 

There are a lot of new names on the list so you may have to do some googling yourself. But there is a lot of information on many of the perfomers over on the Carnival Cruise Lines Piano Bar-Barians page on the site that shall not be named. Just search Carnival Piano Bar-Barians.

 

Thank you and have a good day.

How the hell do they renew the contracts of Martin Aucoin and Kyle Bronsdon! They're both awful and the piano bars are empty when they're playing.

I totally agree Kyle Bronsdon was awful on the Glory in December and I'm sure that the revenue in the PB was way down, as it was always empty.

[pokerbob]

Just checked out Jeremy Ray Borders, and found this on his FB page.... says he is going to be featured in "Carnival's new main headline show".... doesn't sound like something in the piano bar

 

 

So just found out I got another promotion and will be featured in Carnival's new main headline show starting on my next contract on Carnival Freedom Feb15-May23....AND a friend is putting my music in 500 of his stores...also my next contract is outta GALVESTON TEXAS on Freedom Feb15-May23...several past cruise friends are booking during that time...hope to see 'y'all' soon! ....and to all my friends from Houston, I'll be docking during that time every Saturday, so come visit and let's go to Schlitterbaun!

Some of the ships have a show called "88 Keys" or something like that, that utilizes the piano bar entertainer in the main show. I believe that Seth Gibson participated in it on the Sunshine while he did the piano bar gig there last year. Jeremy's primary gig on the Freedom will be the piano bar.

Good to know... thanks.

Hi Divetrash, do you know of anybody over in the Entertainment Dept. that I could call for a list of the Philippine Cover Bands like "Music Boardwalk", "Music Unlimited" etc. I have been trying to track somebody down regarding this info. Because a lot of people have been asking about these bands and I don't know who to contact. Thought you might know. Thanks for any info you can give me. Mary49

Mary,

 

I can make some inquiries, but I can't guarantee anything. Do you have group or a page where y'all discuss this stuff. It would help demonstrate and a viable and ongoing interest in these bands. And lend some credibility to the idea that there is a need for a public schedule.

Hi Laura and thank you. I would love to see a public schedule for these groups and yes there is a FB page on three of these groups: Music Boardwalk, Music Unlimited and Music Degree. They have quite a following as you will see. Hope this helps and thanks again. Mary49

[Rena921]

Going to be on the Dream in March with him - any feed back? Good, bad, or indifferent? Is he new to Carnival? I can't seem to find anything on him.

[Rena921]

Apparently Timothy Lyles goes by Scott Lyles. Found quite a bit on him. Looks like he may be a decent entertainer.

Todd TC Fugate will be on the Imagination in June.

[RedDevil]

Update for Glory

 

It seems he wasn't a popular piano man anyway but Kyle Bronsdon just posted on his facebook tonight was his last night, along with a photo of a memo obviously sent by Carnival HQ or the entertainment heads. All piano bars will now have a song book, which contains 100 songs, and all piano bar players immediately must learn these 100 songs, "we're talking weeks not months" says the memo.

Very interesting, last month on Conquest Gustavo (dont remember his last name) was good but would not play the four most popular piano bar songs

Piano Man

Sweet Caroline

Bennie and the Jets

American Pie

 

Said he was tired of them. He played songs we couldnt sing along with and after a while we got tired of him and didnt come back.

 

Have to think these will be on the list and wonder if he can still get away with not playing them.

Glory: Daniel Schnatter 5/16/2015 - 7/11/2015

 

 

Anyone know anything about Daniel Schnatter ? The day he is getting on the Glory is the same day we are getting on and that scares me a bit...

 

Both the wife and I love to hang out at the Piano Bar but the last time we had a brand new Piano Player, again joined the same day we boarded, was a terrible experience...

If you were on the Victory early Nov last year, you had Brad Alexander. He came on the Nov 6th sailing. Brad was only on for a few weeks, as he was filling in. He is a Favorite of most that frequent the PB's.

Agreed Brad is one of the best but unfortunately he now only does a few weeks at a time.
