Guess we'll find out as I booked a flight for Sept!


Although Ding Dong Don says "maybe the coronavirus will go away in April when the weather warms up, in theory".
Yeah....rightio.

Reckon we'll get some news/update for March 1st re boat?

Deaths over 2,600 now, huge outbreak in northern italy.... certainly showing no signs of slowing down: https://gisanddata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/opsdashboard/index.html#/bda7594740fd40299423467b48e9ecf6 And while on this topic, here is what Royal Caribbean have put in place: https://www.royalcaribbea...

And.....hopefully an announcement for the X10th cruise, with dates and details at this festival!!!!!
Siiiiii??
Por favor!!!

So tired of coming back to see if there's any info.
At least take down the previous dates/cruise and give a hint...something.

2021

Borknagar HAS to be there this time!

Heya After reading all your bits ^ and thinking my own thoughts, that there is zero dates and no boat (yet) tells me they are working on something different. If that's a whole other port or State? Key West? Galveston? Sth Carolina? LA? New Orleans? Tampa? . But the Skip said Jamaica. So how many boa...

What is at Turks? I got off, walked on the beach, went in whatever restaurants were there and took a look, realized there wasn't shit else, then got back on the ship. Love Turks! One of the best beaches/swimming ever! The Conch at John's Ocean View is awesome! Yum! Although, finding good or any pos...

If I may leap in here. NEGATIVES Windjammer food was boring. The breakfast was dull each day. But let's face facts, they'll never have the mighty Weet-Bix on broad! Sorrento's pizza - just awful. Band merch: All the shirts I wanted were gone by the time I was let in. I had the 800+ ticket number. By...

Don't we get some sorta rank bank graph or something, to show, who had the most MUST SEE acts and the least?

I'm very curious!

....and Ok, I've never guessed this thing right in any way shape or form before.
But, I'll have a crack at it.

Aug 07.

Well, this was a nice Round X. Lineup was as good as any of the previous years, with lots of great options. Had a blast with friends. Cozumel was kinda meh and disappointing imo Sorry to hear that mate! In Cozumel, our group went to Chankanaab for a most excellent swim/scuba/snorkel and food. Saw S...

So we have a destination (Jamaica) but no confirmed dates or ship. Will definitely not say no to 2021, but will definitely need a bucketlist band announced before booking opens. Not my fave 70K, but had some of my fave moments out of any 70k though :) Certainly a highlight was Simone of Epica handi...

I sat down for lunch in Florida today and the Soilwork post was a cool surprise. 3 - Devin Townsend 3 - Vio-Lence 2 - Einherjer 2 - Epica 2 - Candlemass 2 - Moonsorrow 2 - Kampfar 2 - Cattle Decapitation 2 - Æther Realm 2 - Soen 2- Omnium Gatherum 2 - Incantation 1 - Wintersun 1 - Emperor 1 - Sortil...

Holy crow! 61 bands reached! Hello all from Little Five Points, Atlanta. It's a wet, rainy day, all day here. If you have a chance later and you're near a radio, tune in to 91.1 FM after midnight. Atlanta's only metal radio show...and I'll be on there. (Possibly after one of my co-hosts. :mrgreen: ...

notice that....Soon is with a capitol S in the skip's last post?
Is it just me, or is there something lurking in that? A hint?

Nah, the EXODUS post in 2018 said “See all of you Sailors”, and nothing happened.

I was Saying............... ha ha ha
Let's get 1 more band!!'

Goodness! 61 bands. I've been flat out exploring each day, shopping, eating GREAT southern food here in Atlanta. Wow... I get back to my air BnB each night, too stuffed to do much. Lack of attention spans etc. But today, the weather across Atlanta was grim as fukk. Got soaked at the MLK Center/Memor...

Holy crow! 61 bands reached! Hello all from Little Five Points, Atlanta. It's a wet, rainy day, all day here. Wish this rain could be sent to Australia! Awful, appalling news from there continues :( But, hard to focus on that. Hard to focus on these recent additions too. Hands up if you think we'll ...

Hey y'all sailors! Happy New Year and....Happy New Decade from Atlanta, Georgia! I went to the local Kroger, grabbed some beers and was tempted to buy some fireworks. But screw it, there's plenty of that going off here in Little Five Points right now. Let's hope we get that O band the second the clo...

Update from Savannah, Georgia (part 2) Gosh...hard keeping track of band updates, on the road etc. Pellaz....oh wow! If only I knew Incantation were gonna be sailing with us!! Atlanta is my next stop. 3 - Devin Townsend 3 - Vio-Lence 2 - Einherjer 2 - Epica 2 - Candlemass 2 - Moonsorrow 2 - Kampfar ...

On the road update. Greetings from Savannah, Georgia. I got off to an early start for this pre-cruise trip." Really annoyed that the bands recently added, were all added after I left home. But very glad we are back to announcements. I have a bunch of bands to research and being on the road to do so ...

All set to fly to the US!

None of those 24 bands either.
So annoying!

Hopefully when I land, 23 bands to go!

Cya all next decade in Florida!

24 bands in 16 days!

What's the math here then?
can't be 1 band a day anymore.

I still think we'll get a Xmas stocking bands poster thing.
3 bands in the one stocking!?!?

But has to be at least some bands before that!

TURN IT UP SKIP!
Let's roll.

I have South Carolina, Georgia and Texas adventures first.

HA!!
Ah I did make a Georgia playlist for my travels across the state.
That song is on there.
Cheers

PS: CAN WE PLEASE RE-START THE BAND ANNOUNCEMENTS ALREADY?

Yeah not a happy xmas for a lot of Aussies :( I'll be heading to Buffalo and Toronto pre cruise then heading down to Miami day before. Not hanging around much after the cruise though - just a night in FLL after the cruise to recover and then home to Australia via LAX and Auckland. So grim here. The...

A few weeks ago I was thinking, what I thought not unrealistically, that we may have 50 bands by the time I fly out of Australia. I fly out Christmas Day. I am now honestly thinking there will probably still be 36 bands when I fly out. I fly out tomorrow to the US and still no 24 bands. Hardly a ce...

I fly out tomorrow to the US and still no 24 bands.
Hardly a celebrating 10 yr mood/vibe.

It's bizarre.

My first cruise back since 2015 and it's been a roller coaster up and down of emotions.
Maybe we'll get a Xmas Eve band pack in a Xmas stocking poster!
Or just the usual pathetic silence.

Hola! Speaking of day trips in Mexico. Um, is there a ferry across to Playa Del Carmen we can take to the temples like Bopa and Tulum? Or are we sailors just stuck on Cozumel for the day? Yep, there are ferries, as that highly informative post stated. HOWEVER, if you want to go to Tulum or Xcaret o...

that was the most informative first post ever

ha ha indeed.
Maybe a secretive UMC member perhaps!
Sshh!!
I appreciated it very much so.

There should be an ferry every hour to Playa del Carmen and back 365 days a year depending on the weather. The ride takes about 30 minutes. Price 220 pesos ($11.6) one way … 400 pesos ($21) if You want to take the trip back to Cozumel. :D There are now two companies that service the crossing. All b...

Dec 17th marks ONE month since the last band announcement (Atheist) and 3 weeks to sailing. Would be great if some of the confirmed 24 bands just came out and gave us hints. Instead of you know who, leaving us all wondering what in the actual feck is going on. I fly out in 6 days. Doubt I'm gonna se...

Sailors! Tomorrow (Tuesday) is 3 weeks to sailing! We've been uh....calm, sorta, these last few weeks. Ha ha But seriously starting to worry now. Not sweating bullets yet, but geez... E - elimination! E - give us the band now! E - eliminate this radio silence! E - Eliminate, Eliminate! C'mon Skipper...

Hop to it!

I want to have time to listen at the announced bands, I dont wanna see 5 announcements per day the week before the cruise... I've been on the cruise 6 times and the communication about this year is really a total bullshit I also fully agree! What is the hold up? Seriously! I leave for the US in 9 d...
