I guess if we're talking metal festivals. But Shiprocked and MORC both happened in 2020 also.

That being said, my last show was Hydraform/Exhorder/Overkill on 3/8. I think I'm at 6 shows postponed at this point. A couple outright cancelled.

None of them are metal (well, Voodoo has some metal occasionally), but Jazz Fest, Essence Fest, and Voodoo have all been cancelled. The first two were originally postponed until October (from April/May and July respectively).

If we can count virtual concerts, then we watched Wolfheart last night and Insomnium Gatherum is today.

A show is a show at this point. lol

Well shit... Now I have no idea. Sepultura postponed until who knows when.

Speaking of local bands, throw Crowbar on my wish list too.

Not sure if they've ever been on the boat, but I'd like to add Exhorder to my list. I forgot how killer they were. Nope! Kyle has been on broad previously with Trouble, but Exhorder have not. Would be a very cool addition :) Just saw them with Overkill. They'd probably be on the flight with me (the...

SAXON has been on 70K, and they were on my wishlist. Yeah. Saxon have really given 70K the cold shoulder after doing the first cruise :( I think Saxon has been booked 2 or 3 times for MORC. They haven't been back on 70K since the 2011 cruise. I'm not sure why they haven't been on another 70K. Not s...

That's the biggest issue for me. I'm fine with not booking boat until later, but some stuff needs to be booked farther in advance (vacation dates, hotel accommodations, etc.).

Just out of interest, Pre-sale for Shiprocked 2021 starts this week. and they sail Jan 18 to 23. And Monsters of Rock 2021 have their prices up already, with their booking opening March 10 https://monstersofrockcruise.com/pricing-and-availability/ https://monstersofrockcruise.com/mor-2021-on-sale-s...

If you look at the February 2021 schedule for the Independence there is no availability for 70K that month. There is nothing scheduled from the 8th - 13th which is most likely Monsters of Rock since it lines up with their dates this year and is a 5 day cruise. Rock Legends has the boat from the 18t...

MORC is on the Indy from 2/8-2/13, so we know 70K won't be then on that ship.

Been a long dry spell, but spring is looking great.

I'm going to guess August 17th (the day after Psycho Las Vegas).

I'm not really going to rehash most of the points covered. But my thoughts... Positives: Pool boys. I think it's about time the women and gay men got some eye candy too. I don't fit into either of those categories, but good on 'em. And I'm pretty sure a pool boy handed me my program when I got on bo...

They are much more likely to be out due to doing MORC than because of their cost. They are regulars on On The Blue cruises. Qyeensryche is on Kiss Kruise 10 coming up around Halloween this year ! If you look at the cost to book Queensryche, they are higher than any band that's played 70K. Yes they ...

This actually JUST happened with the Independence, within the last few days, according to posts on CruiseCritic. Existing reservations were cancelled with an option to rebook similar cruises, with a cruise credit. Sucks to have already booked nonrefundable travel, though. Yep. I almost never book a...

OUT? - Because they cost too much
Queensryche

They are much more likely to be out due to doing MORC than because of their cost. They are regulars on On The Blue cruises.

My speculation from the megathread is that Independence doesn't have bookable cruises Jan 14 - Feb 4 (according to this ), so the cruise would fall in that date range. Someone pointed out that some previous 70k cruises have been inadvertently listed for public booking, so I'll toss out a more fun s...

For me, it was my daughter saying that she was going to have to get to a Bloodbound show early because she needed to be at the barricade because she didn't enjoy shows from in the seats as much.

Yea I'll do this next year. I really was exploring the ship, plus my wife and I ran into an old friend that used to live in Milwaukee, so I don't think I would've been able to make it anyway this year. I wonder if I ran into any of you people, I didn't really talk to many strangers. You missed at l...

My vote went to Without Waves. Quite impressed with these guys. Managed to watch their Star Lounge set

Same here.

with all the issues this time around , I think I almost feel an indifference that the cruise is sold out a week before departing ! :| Yep. "Sold out." I have a feeling they'll have a lot of extra rooms to use as emergency backup beer storage this year. :twisted: Yeah, I suspect that this is a "Sold...

I don't think I've been to the Viking Crown on this ship. Wandered up once on the Liberty. It was a nice lounge on the Majesty. Let's see if I actually make it this time.

MORC held their karaoke in the Viking Crown when they were on RC ships. Never been to the Indy's.

Without Waves might be the only eligible one?

I was thinking the same things said in the last few posts. MEGACRUISE also had extra cabins, they gave them away, because they **already** had the bands (how could they do that? Magic!) 70K gave away several of them in the press in Europe (Germany and Spain), but not enough. So now they’re probably...

I'm on the fence about doing this for a few reasons. It's my first time, so I wanna explore everything. and the other is I know my wife doesn't give a shit about you people, and won't want to waste time doing this, lol. Pretty sure my wife and daughter won't care about it either, but I figure why n...

While I would love to see Goatwhore, we're staying in Hollywood Beach and probably won't make this. But we can see them locally pretty often.

I'm in for 3pm in VC. I'll just bring up a bucket of beer from the Schooner.
