Adding this one also here: I definately have to add another band to my wishlist: Cemetery Skyline . (https://www.facebook.com/cemeteryskylineofficial) And if you ask who and what, yes it's a new band and they'll play their first gig this summer at Finland's John Smith rock festival, BUT it's a gothi...
I definately have to add another band to my wishlist: Cemetery Skyline . (https://www.facebook.com/cemeteryskylineofficial) And if you ask who and what, yes it's a new band and they'll play their first gig this summer at Finland's John Smith rock festival, BUT it's a gothic rock/metal band consistin...
Some of my favourites that I initially found at 70K or some other festival and a bunch of great Finnish bands some of which have been onbroad and others not, so here's my wishlist: ... and Oceans Alien Weaponry Angus McSix Avantasia Beast in Black Be'lakor Belzebubs Bloodred Hourglass (BRHG) Elvenki...
Yeah there were four different themes so one for each night. I went just once and it was the Caribbean night. (another was Italian and I'm not sure what the other two were) I haven't been to the dining room on my previous cruises so this time I decided I had to. I thought there were enough choices b...
What is the main feedback you left on the survey? One of my requests was to report back what they actually take on board (pun intended) from the responses. I don't see a lot of changes between the years. (But I'm quite happy with how it's being run now, except for the late announcements, don't get ...
just fyi: women on the internet have been very vocal that this is not acceptable. No form of "name bands/songs/whatnot" is accepted. It is considered male condescension You are getting this totally out of context. It is perfectly fine to ask any person on the boat which bands they are int...
I heard a rumor that someone overdosed in Bimini and died onbroad and was choppered off the ship. Can anybody confirm or deny that? It is absolutely confirmed that a passenger had a drug related medical emergency and was transported off the ship in very bad condition via a fire rescue boat. The wor...
Insomnium will release a new album in late February and one of the songs (White Christ) is featuring Sakis Tolis of Rotting Christ. Insomnium just announced on social media they'll release the song as a single this Wednesday. How nice it would be to have Sakis come on stage to perform the song with ...
Yes, but FA has a date on the 29th. Unless they found a way to book super fast travel AND do the end of tour wrap up before boarding a boat on the 30th, I don't think they're in the cards. (Which is a shame because I enjoy them) It’s tight, but that doesn’t rule them out. Don’t forget that Nightwis...
It took about 31 hours to get the booking confirmation and a friend of mine, gold survivor too, only got her's this evening so even later. And some others got theirs also around 30 hours after the request was made...
I never saw any info on the website that the payments would be due November 26th, December 26th and January 26th. So that must be someone's false info, where the heck did you get that Pellaz? Until last weekend the four installments plan was 25% at booking, 25 % November 25th, 25 % December 25th and...
The rumor about the payment plan getting changed was true :lol: Yeah :D Now it's just interesting to see, when the first payment is due and when the booking starts so do we get to make the first payment already in November, early Deceber or maybe mid-December just before the second installment is d...
It's probably safe to rule out Payment Schedule. lol "Bookings made after November 20, 2022 have to be paid in full at the time of booking." I asked that on Facebook in the comments for the Feuerschwanz announcement and the 70000 tons page replied to me that "don't worry, there will ...
I'm 'un-ruling out' Battlebeast. If Nightwish can do a date in Japan on 28th January and still be confirmed for boat, then Battlebeast having a gig in Finland on 28th January should be okay too. Yeah it's possible. I remember some European bands arriving one day before the cruise for some previous ...
To be honest I too was surprised that the prices weren't much higher. Somehow I expected that maybe the cheapest cabins would be around 1100 USD plus the surcharges, because you know, eveything is more expensive now. So 966+464 USD is definately not bad, but of course if the only available cabins at...
I just went to check the payment schedule page because it's 22.00/10 PM here in Finland so not much October 15th left. :D AND THERE WAS AN UPDATE I HAVEN'T SEEN BEFORE!! Well, only a "Please Note: The information on this page will be updated in the near future." on the top of the page abov...
I can’t wait to finally get my 10th sailing under my belt! Any idea if a Monkeypox and Covid vaccination card will be required to get on the ship? A similar question was asked on Facebook. The answer they gave was: "We will need to follow Cruise Line regulations, info about which ship and whic...
Bonus guessing game - guess the boat and port we'll be sailing out of in Jan 2023! I'm guessing we'll still be on Royal Caribbean, and we'll sail on the Freedom out of Miami :) Agree! Freedom would technically be a new ship even if it's identical or almost identical to Liberty and Indy. To me Miami...
Great news! :headbanger: It good to know that there's a date or at least the month for the next cruise. See you all in January 2023! :cheers: I'm also curious about the new ship. If it's still Royal Caribbean I'd guess either of Indy's sisters, because the bigger Oasis ships don't have similar pool ...
Yeah it sucks not to have any info even though it's less than a month until the supposed 2021 cruise. As someone who has studied and worked in the media field this is very annoying. Even some short message of acknowledgement at some point would've been good. But yeah, Andy just being Andy. I underst...
Yes Liberty and Freedom are Indy's sister ships, but I don't think the cruise will relocate anywhere from Ft. Lauderdale/Miami and I don't think RCCL will relocate a ship from elsewhere to Florida just for our cruise. As mentioned, Liberty sails from Galveston, Texas and Freedom from San Juan, Puert...
Andy did mention something about the late start for 2019 but I couldn't hear because of the god damn wind. I'm thinking this year was a fluke and we'll be back to "normal" this year. It was basically just something like "Shit started happening late this year due to my personal health...
Based on past experience I don't believe they charge you during the cruise, only on the last morning. In 2018 my credit cards were compromised on my way to FL, I couldn't get a new one in time and was instructed by CC company to just freeze it on and off until I returned. I unfroze my account on my...
I have a question about the onboard credit and SeaPass. I've linked my credit card to the onboard account the previous years and I'm doing so this time too. It's just that this year I don't have that much extra credit available on the card as previous years. I'm not saying I have like 20 euros left,...
F better be Frozen Crown, right Cardest????? Omg YES!!!!!!! It has to be!!! otherwise it will be unForgivable! haha Stam1na - why the hell do they spell their band like that? It looks so silly. I'm gonna bring some huge letter I's with me and toss them at the band. "Hey! Get that 1 out of that...
Insomnium can also be ruled out. They're playing at TalviHelvetti (Winter hell) event here in Tampere, Finland on Friday January 10th. Other bands playing there are: Machinae Supremacy (SWE), Fear Of Domination, Vorna, Lord of the Lost (GER) and Torchia. https://tullikamari.net/en/events/talvihelvet...
Early days, so just the multiples for now :) 3 Amon Amarth, Powerwolf 2 Alestorm, Amorphis, Edguy, Equilibrium, Gotthard, Sabaton, Tarot , Trollfest I don't think Tarot will ever play anywhere again. :( Their drummer Pecu Cinnari died in September 2016 (he had ALS) and I think the rest of the band ...
I was told a couple of weeks ago that all bands have been booked. And that one of those bands starts with a W and ends in an intersun... Obviously take this with a pinch of salt but it’s from a pretty solid source Well it would make sense to have all the bands booked weeks before the event because ...
I'm making a steady climb. I'm in the back of the ship on Deck 10, #1693. Last year I was also in the aft, but on deck 8. The first time so 2017 I was in the front, but on deck 2. Nothing to complain about the locations so far. I've been lucky.
Very interesting thread. Like someone wrote earlier, currently only RCC ships sailing to Cuba are Empress and Majesty that are both smaller than Independence. I'd love to go to Cuba, but I don't think it's gonna happen soon with 70K. I never went on 70K on Majesty and also not on Barge to Hell so ca...
Also at least on FB the link didn't work for all but the shore excursions full list can be accessed from the link on 70K's "Our destination"-page, where it says "You can find more information on Labadee at the official Royal Caribbean website" and then "exciting tours" ...
I did snorkeling the last time in Labadee and I loved it. Also was my first time snorkeling ever. I also went snorkeling last year at Grand Turk so maybe I'll try something else this time. I'd love the flight line, but it's a bit too pricey I think, I don't want to pay 100 USD. Maybe the roller coas...
Tonight I'm going to visit a good friend of mine whom I haven't seen since last summer. Also right after that it's time to head across the Atlantic, first to New York.
So about the drink packages, first timer here asking. The RC website says: "Wake up with the aroma of your favorite freshly brewed premium coffee or tea and enjoy breakfast with fresh-squeezed juices. Keep hydrated all day long with unlimited fountain soda refills in your Coca-Cola souvenir cup...
City/country: Tampere, Finland (though I spent the Fall 2016 in Hong Kong and I'm moving to Prague, Czech Republic in February) Age (optional): 27 What first got you into metal? I saw Metallica's One, Amorphis' Alone and Nightwish's Over the Hills and Far Away music videos in a music program on TV ...
^ Time does indeed flie so fast. I didn't really know Laura but I do remember what a great time I had with you guys in Tuska 2012 and the pretty pink hair that Laura and also Riikka had then.
Two out of my top four favourite bands playing on the cuirse 2017. Amorphis - Eclipse and Under the Red Cloud I can't really say which one is the utmost best, I love them both. Eclipse was the one that made me a fan back in the days and UTRC is also good, better than the previous ones IMHO. I rememb...
