He was FANTASTIC, There was also an enjoyable Beatles tribute band, Britain’s Finest. My nose was out of joint for the first couple of days of the cruise due to the roast beef on hard roll no longer being served at the Park Cafe and changes to the MDR menus. However, by the end of the cruise, all was forgiven as the Michael Grimm concert was a highlight for me. My first cruise was on the NCL Gem the first year she sailed and the entertainment every night was outstanding while the food was mediocre, at best, but I loved the cruise. My next cruise was on the Carnival Pride where the food was quite good but the entertainment and activities just dreadful. So, I have come to the conclusion that good shows in the theater are very important to me. It goes without saying that my idea of a “good show” may not be the same as someone else’s. I would be interested in hearing what headliners have appeared on other ships. I understand the shows are fantastic on the biggest ships but also have heard you won’t get in to see them unless you make reservations long before you get on the ship. What headliners have been on ships you’ve been on? Any idea how long Michael Grimm and Britain's finest will be on Grandeur? Sailing on November 8 and would love to see both!

In general, the Kummelweck is still served at Park Cafe, but I do recall that Enchantment would have a pork roast instead of beef on some days.

Ok. I thought I read they said they had done away with the RB on roll. That was a great go to lunch snack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sdpete Posted October 24, 2019 #38 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Have seen Mamma Mia eight times beginning with Quantum and then Allure. Met two of the leading men on Quantum. That show was as good as a Broadway production. Wish I could know the names of the actors. MVI_3430.MP4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bookish Angel Posted October 24, 2019 #39 Share Posted October 24, 2019 We give a hard pass to almost all ship entertainment but we'd see Michael Grimm. We saw him on the AGT tour some years ago and he was terrific - no cheesy gimmicks or patter, just that incredible voice and excellent song selection.

LeDemonBlond Posted October 24, 2019 #40 Share Posted October 24, 2019 We were on NCL Bliss in 2018 and they had the best hard rock cover band I ever had the pleasure to listen to ( on a cruise or not). They are a group called SIGLO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snaefell Posted October 24, 2019 #41 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Just back from Quantums repo cruise from China to Singapore,The Royal Theatre & 2-70 are lovely rooms that deserve far better quality entertainment IMO. Starwater was memorable for the main singer,awesome voice,but we have seen videos of that so many times,Sequins & Feathers started off remarkably like Starwater & never really improved,the band by the pool were memorable for totally murdering Sweet Home Alabama & Long Train Running in one set & as for the Queen tribute,dire doesn't cover it! IMO probably the best musical entertainment on board was in the Pub where two young ladies,one with a violin & the other with an accoustic guitar played some amazing versions of very surprising songs,sadly many people didn't seem to even notice they were there!

But seriously, I was kind of hoping for more of a 'best of' list than a good and bad. It would be nice to see a performer listed in the Compass and know that was a 'don't miss' show.

Sorry if you are not familiar with Starwater,a show in 2-70,from which before we went on board we had seen videos a number of times of the main singer as she is lifted through a trapdoor in the ceiling ,the rest of the show was pretty forgettable apart from her,like I say,great voice.
