"S"hall we bring another orchestra on board?

Everyone's thinking Symphony X or Stratovarius but I think it's obvious that the next announcement is going to be Sebastian Bach

All joking aside I think it would actually be kind of awesome to have Bach on broad.

Sgt. B wrote:YES!!!!!

You have Benediction. You might as well bring Dave's other band, Anaal Nathrakh.

With Benediction onbroad we also have half the lineup of Memoriam already there as well. Book 'em Andy!!! (if you haven't already )

I won't be surprised if we don't get any more announcements until after silver booking has started. With ticket sales going as well as they seem to be this year I doubt UMC wants to risk the possibility of not having any cabins available before public sales even begin. If they have a few more big an...

Cannibal Corpse is another solid add for me.....fuck this lineup is starting to get ridiculous already...there are only 3 bands announced so far that I don't want to check out. Wintersun, Watain, Witchery, or Wolfheart would make me happy as the next announcent. I've got a feeling it's going to be W...

I'd be booking this year no matter what but going forward there are probably only a handful of bands that would make pull the trigger and book based on one band only. Bolt Thrower, Hypocrisy, Dismember and Primordial come to mind

Am I missing something? I've seen a few people saying the next band is Goatwhore like it's common knowledge. I don't see anything on the artists page?

"G" could be for Gojira! I was really bummed out when they had to drop out at the last minute last year. My fingers are crossed that they'll make it up this year. Could also be Grand Magus as they were heavily rumored to be on last year....maybe they had actually signed up to be on this ye...

Insomnium got screwed over a bit on 2016's cruise and both their sets ended up being really late at night. Maybe they'll be brought back to make up for it. Iced Earth also missed out on their headlining pool deck set due to the storm and they just released a new album. Immolation could be a possibil...

Judging by the clue I'm gonna guess that Sirenia will be the next announcement.

Nordic Metal Cruise has announced their first bands over the past few days (Dark Tranquillity, Finntroll, Wolfheart and Kalmah). It's a one night cruise that sets sail on the Baltic Sea on Feb. 10th. 70K finishes up on Feb. 5th. Kalmah is already ruled out since they played last year but the other t...

We're well into May already and surprisingly no one has started this yet so here goes. Here are the dates of the first bands announcements from years past. I mostly jacked these from last years thread...Thanks Statsman! 18th April 2011 - 280 days from sailing 27th June 2012 - 215 days from sailing 3...

Last year we successfully smuggled a 60 pounder of Rum and Whiskey onbroad. The rum runner flasks were spread out across two suitcases of checked luggage and everything made it through. This year I'm going solo so I'll only have one suitcase. Gonna downsize a bit I think and just bring the smaller s...

Apparently I have two hotels booked now! Had a miscommunication with the Clevelander for the room I had originally booked there and thought my reservation was cancelled. Multiple calls to the Clevelander just ended up in confusion as no one could find any record of my reservation ever existing and a...

FYI...Porters are not responsible for getting you luggage to the room nor are they around when security checks your luggage. People seem to think if they tip the porters generously that it will improve your chances of getting banned items on board. That is not the case. All the porters do is deposi...

I also read somewhere that if you stuff rum runner kits in a bag left with porters, in between clothes, it is less likely to be detected and confiscated than if it's in your carry on bag. For a $2-5 tip, I'm willing to find out if that's true. We had a lot of rum runners in our checked suitcase las...

Fucking sucks about Gojira. They were definitely the band I was most hyped about seeing. Gonna take something really huge to fill those shoes

Leaving Toronto at 8:10 am on the 31st and arriving in Miami at 11:30

Really enjoying these guys! Definitely will be checking out at least one set from them!
