Mary49 Posted May 8, 2012 #127 Share Posted May 8, 2012 How is Music Mix?? We are sailing Fascination on 4/23 and we love a good band! :D I saw them on the Legend in 2006. At that time they had a woman singer in the 4 member band. What a beautiful voice. Boy, could she sing. Hope they are still the same band. I enjoyed them very much. I'm sure you will too.

manmtnmike Posted May 12, 2012 Author #128 Share Posted May 12, 2012 (edited) AS per BeccaBecca...Current on Ecstasy "Music - I'm becoming a broken record, but let me say, I'm not someone obsessed with who's gonna be on the ship in terms of musicians. But wow, we had a great band on board! They are called "The Best Day Ever." They're a cover band out of Tampa FL who play music from the 60's to now. They mostly played 80's music and as a child of the 80's I was extremely delighted to hear them play! " Edited May 12, 2012 by manmtnmike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manmtnmike Posted May 18, 2012 Author #129 Share Posted May 18, 2012 Anyone have recent "Fun Times" to check out most recent party/dance bands to share with interested cruisers? Thanks, Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Another ship trip Posted May 20, 2012 #130 Share Posted May 20, 2012 I would love to see a great classic rock band who is authentic and not corny or boring. Real edgy rockers which I have never seen on a cruise. Just play me some Enter Sandman, Sweet Child of Mine, anything Aerosmith, Ac/DC, Zeppelin, Rush, Motley Crue, Nirvana, Pink Floyd, Queen, you get the picture. I am a "child" of classic rock but have never been impressed with cruise bands. Probably because i like a little wild and edge to my music which is not common on the lullaby music of cruises. Would love to go on the rock cruises but they have always been scheduled when I cannot get off work. I have a very "conservative" job but let loose with my musical tastes. I am on the Magic in July so am very hopeful for some music that I like for a change!! Now some classic rock covers would make us and our 21 year old son very happy!! If you know what band will be on Magic in July, I would like to look them up on YouTube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manmtnmike Posted June 21, 2012 Author #131 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Hi Rock Cover Band lovers! Just recieved info from the entertainment dept and spoke with the man who books the bands...Great guy, and he shared the difficulties of accurate info after the bands return home on vacation. Gov't stuff and regs... So, here's some misc items we talked about: -They are looking to place bands on Pride and Legend-presently w/o a band. No time frame yet... All this subject to change.... Bands just signed for new contracts... Music Mix will begin 3/8 on Fascination Highlight (not Music Highlight-different band) on 3/8 Triumph Music ( something-begins with a "C") on 3/8 Glory New band Hilux -on Spirit in March Music Society-Magic Music Boardwalk currently on Miracle probably till May, then to Fantasy Music Unlimited back to Miracle in May Possible Blood Power back to Magic in May Expect each band to have 8 month cotracts, but also could change as well as the ship. This is not all-inclusive but just from the notes I jotted down. Will do e-mail correspodance in future I'll check back for more info. Hope this helps! Mike Hey Rock cover/band fans! Stay tuned tomorrow for update: .... regarding some new band assignments... Post up if you want me to find out specific bands or ships! Not so good news news for Blood Power fans. Just heard that they're still in a "holding pattern" with new keyboard guy, and gov't paper-work issues. So nothing in near future for them:( Expect update tomorrow, hopefully!

SkyMaster Posted December 28, 2013 #147 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Just off "Paradise", and BLOOD POWER was there. I don't know how long they'll be aboard Paradise, but they are excellent. My personal favorite is "BlackJack Band", and I've always seen them aboard "Dream". Hope they're still there, as I'll be sailing "Dream" in Jan,, and again in Feb.

Yeah...Blood Power is the best...It's too bad they don't put them on a more substantial ship... My little 3-day Sensation cruise Jan 9 will have Music Asia:D:D Then we hop right on Freedom of the Seas... Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharecruises Posted December 28, 2013 #150 Share Posted December 28, 2013 I really miss all the Filipino Bands...many of them were from the same talent agency and had the word "music" in their name ...Blood Power may be one of the last left... It is sad that the larger, newer ships with the 2.0 upgrades have the worst entertainment I am thinking about trying Freedom again before she gets the 2.0 Yeah I like burgers but the shows and the music are more important to me DJ and the awful Playlist "shows" don't thrill me at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
