"V" as for Vanishing Point from Down-Under would be a nice first timer (if I'm correct).

But indeed, it's already getting a busy cruise...

My wishes for 70k 2024? Early announcements and a steady stream of information would be so great! but if you ask for bands: (already posted in Cowboy's thread, but can duplicate it here as well:) Ad Infinitum Aephanemer Aetherian (Melodic Death from Greece, www.facebook.com/Aetherianband) Axel Rudi ...

I was not on board the last time, so it's fair to recycle my list from last year, with some updates Ad Infinitum Aephanemer Aetherian (Melodic Death from Greece, www.facebook.com/Aetherianband) Axel Rudi Pell Be'Lakor Blind Guardian Bloodred Hourglass Borealis (CDN, www.facebook.com/borealisband) Br...

- Running Wild - 30th Anniversary Blazon Stone - Edguy - 20th Anniversary of Mandrake oh, yes! RW doing Blazone Stone and Black Hand Inn sets would be awesome. Looking at my favs, they all have quite a lot anniversary matches. Kalmah: 20y Swamplord / 15y The Black Waltz Insomnium: 20y In the Halls ...

11th 70k-cruise and, probably, the 7th on the Independence/Liberty of the Seas, so would be:

Thank you Ron, for developing and sharing this app. I wasn't on the ship the last to years but this year the app was very handy to use for me. Some suggestions for additional improvements: - add the link to the tutorial video directly to the app and/or in the app stores. I haven't knew the video bef...

Meh. No idea where the new clue is pointing. I checked all bands that have previously played the cruise and start with G, and it doesn't seem to match any of them (there are only a handful of them anyway). "Gotthard" (the Mountain as well as the Band) wouldn't be too far from Grenoble, wh...

ok , thanks Sgt. B.

I wasn't aware of that. Ok, most of those band aren't on my "playlist"
All star jam doesn't count, because it's a special set-up designed to mix up musicians.
I meant only regular band members. Stand-in musicians count neither.

question to our Statsman: happend it before, that a band member played with "both" of his official bands on the same cruise? I mean, like it would be with Pain and Hypocrisy (Peter) or Omnium Gatherum and Insomnium (Markus) etc. Or is this another unwritten law like with not doing two crui...

would Pegazus from down-under be enough "around the world"?

hm, so far no Swiss band on board.
so our Gotthard is quite a big mountain on the horizont
and they'll start their 25th anniv. tour with Pretty Maids just after the cruise.
Maybe the can start their celebrations offshore. I would be very pleased if they'd do so.

Running Wild - Heads or Tails

new Album?!?
hell yeah, thanks for info, I would have missed it.

Yes, please bring them on board, Skipper!

just discovered this Melo-Death act from Madrid.
highly melodic with various influences, somewhat like Norther mixed with Dark the suns.

Have a listen and get them on board 2015

If our captain would do something like this, what melody should it be?
Which tune could become a 70kt departure theme?

ok, I'm fine with that

oh hell yes please!
get them onbroad!

Shakra- powerful Hardrock made in Switzerland

As Gotthard already were onbroad, now it would be time for these guys!

support this

I did start with
'Awaiking the Gods (live in Mexico)', even when I'm not the biggest fan of live albums, this one got me hooked to Haggard.
the old ones 'And thou should trust' and 'awaiking the centuries' have some killer song on them I wouldn't want to miss
I guess you have to get them all

new video/song from Insomnium's upcoming relaese

over and over again, they must be onbroad 2015! Andy, make this happens, please!
