... takes 90 minutes ... felt like cattle .... WHAT I don't know when you guys were eating in the dining room, but it NEVER took that long, even with dessert. And you can stay as long as you want and socialize after your meal. Whoever said that the food at the buffet is salt ridden, was right on. No...

Very sad news indeed. Condolences to his family, friends and anyone who knew him.

vielleicht hät iich d´täxscht in schwiitzertüüsch schriibe söle?! Wäre evt besser da der Andy ja aus der Schweiz ist. Aber Recht hasste, so langsam könnte der schon den rest bekannt geben. And on the note that German's can't talk English that good - bull, ya'll haven't heard me speaking the languag...

Nothing special needed if you have a German Passport neither.

DONE a couple days ago.

Maybe RC's smoking policy does not pertain to charter cruises?

True dat.

Well guys, thanks for all the input. I have no problem admitting I am kinda disappointed with the replies I got - meaning I didn't get the expected support - but I can live with that. Oh wow - so the only reason you registered and made that post was to get support in getting people to cancel their ...

Is anybody actually surprised that Costa Maya won? It's a new destination and folks want to see something new. I would have been OK with any of the choices, except maybe Freeport because it's north and so close to Miami. Viva la Tequila - make the best out of it and I bet we all have a great time no...

It's tied right now and me, Mel and our two friends have yet to vote. Mels worried CM will be hot as fuck. Actually she wants to go to Freeport hoping the boat won't be so windy if we're not cranking full speed to get there. I don't know with the wind. When we went to Nassau (Barge) is was much col...

Actually, Costa Maya's water is clean and drinkable. Part of the benefits of being a recently built resort destined for gringos with pussies instead of stomachs. True - last time we were in the Roo we rented a car, drove around and also ate at the local food stands in some unknown village. Didn't h...

I was just gonna ask the same question. Didn't Stover have a running tally on who stays where for the last cruise?

Like most of you - I like a good steak (medium rare btw) and I will go back to the establishment if the prior experience of said steak was awesome. With saying this, the below story is fictional: So, the Chef tells me right after, or rather while I am eating my prior steak, that he will give me a pr...

The merch store opens at 8am (I believe) on Tuesday morning. Sooooo, if you really have your heart set on some band merch I would suggest to either do an all-nighter on Monday or plan on being there at least an hour plus before she opens. Then plan on waiting around since they prolly won't open on t...

Quick tip for the beach-party on Sunday:

Gals - bring either a box of tissues or a bunch of napkins. At some point during the day you WILL have to pee, so unless you go into the ocean to do your business there are public bathrooms close by. They are fairly decent but DO run out of toilet paper.

What about following situation. can't image how is will be I would like to go to the shows/pool with my stuff like sea pass/camera/shoes/towel/whatever (do i need cash to tip personnel?) Now i want to go swim in the pool or something like this. Where can i leave my stuff secure/dry? The ONLY time y...

Six Feet Under - when they canceled for Barge or 70K (can't remember) I was actually happy. Also, any band who tours a lot as it is. I prefer bands on there who never tour in the states and those little gems where you heard an album a long time ago and totally forgot about them (Nightmare was a prim...

More specific on things to pack, or not: - for the guys - pack LIGHT. You can be shirtless most of the day, so no reason to pack tons of shirts! If you prefer not to go shirtless, one shirt per day and maybe 2 extra (just in case) is plenty. - for the gals - same applies - go shirtless with a bra or...

My two cents - aka the view of a older cruiser (old as in AGE ) - DON'T get to the port early; you WILL be standing in line forever. We usually leave the hotel around noon and the line to get onto the ship are not that massive no more. - Take your own luggage. The security is NOT like at the airport...

Korpiklaani put this image on their Facebook page ... hmmmmmm http://www.70000tons.com/images/home_pics/2013-03-08_PoolDeckHorns-800px.jpg And as far as Wishlist - right now: TOP SIX: Amon Amarth Anthrax Blind Guardian Dimmu Borgir Heathen Vader WOULD BE COOL: Accept Arch Enemy Armored Saint Be'lako...

I soooo agree with everything said. Thankfully some of the cruisers do live close by and we actually see each other at shows here. For the prior two 70K's I was not able to attend (insert lame excuse here) so Barge was my first taste of the awesomeness and then 70K 2013. One seriously get's hooked, ...

I think that was you anyways.

Bawahahaha. In my defense this was Steven Case's doing. He told me to say that to you. And I believe I said: hmmm, ain't you the one with shaved balls?

BTW yeah you guys were awesome, I caught 1.5 sets. Don't break up Thanks, but we actually broke up months ago and just did a few rehearals for the 70K shows. Whaaaat? I heard you say on the pool deck stage that this would be the last Anacrusis gig for a long time - as in we are taking a break and N...

Alrighty. I think it was about overdue for me to register. So - here I am. Go easy - I am fragile. Bwahahhaaa!!! Right. Welcome! So glad you finally made it! Hey, I AM FRAGILE In real life I am shy and socially awkward. I don't talk to and interact with people I don't know or just met. On the cruis...

The merch situation has been apparently an issue for all the cruises and I doubt it will change. I am pretty sure RC takes a cut as far as the merch sales go since why would it be charged to your board card anyways. So to do a pre-order type of thing, it would either have to go thru RC's site or thr...
