Rock Cruise - anyone been on one?

[auslander]

I have been reading about the Kiss Kruise. I am wondering if any HH member has ever gone on a hard rock cruise and if they are any good?

I've never been that lucky or probably never will...haven't left Norn Iron in over 4 years  

Think that there are a few here that have been to em though...Jez even played at one with Heavy Pettin if I'm correct in saying.

Monsters of Rock Cruise twice. They were fun back then, and only seem to have gotten better. Nonstop concerts from noon til about 1:00 AM. All your food is covered if you're okay with buffet. Buy a drink package. I def think the cruise is worth the price. I just can't afford to go alone, and my brothers are no longer able to leave their families for a week.

Yeah, he was on MOR Cruise a few years back. Would've been cool to see him.

I've never been on one, but it sounds very cool.

I think I may have asked this question the last time this topic came up, but I can't remember the answer...

What's the Male to Female ratio?

Trollops?

lol. Quality use of words. Haven't heard that for an age, which is criminal in itself. 

I've never been on one and if I'm being honest, it doesn't sound like something I'd be too into. I like bands and I like drinking beer, but I also like doing stuff, the outdoors and nature and stuff. And I can't think how I'd manage on a cruise ship for any amount of time at all.

I had a great time and I got to see loads of bands I wouldn't normally get to see or meet. Saying that, if I hadn't been in the band, I probably wouldn't have thought of going or been able to afford it either,  as it's not a cheap trip once you figure in flights from the UK, hotels before and after etc.  It was a great laugh though and I'm glad I got the opportunity to attend.

Did the Monsters of Rock Cruise in 2020, which was my first one.  I thought it was amazing and don't think i can ever do a "normal" cruise again lol.  It was just awesome having concerts from about noon until past midnight every day.

The draw for me though was really to see some of the Euro bands that are next to impossible to see here in the USA otherwise due to our annoying visa laws.  Apparently they're able to avoid the rules by playing on the cruise since it's not US soil.

It was pretty cool being able to brush elbows with many of the bands hanging throughout the ship and at least from my experience, everybody I approached was very welcoming and happy to chat or snap a photo or whatever.  It's pretty cool to know you're around so many people with like minded tastes.

It's expensive but definitely worth doing at least once.  I'm hopeful to do another at some point.

I actually thought the price was very reasonable, considering what you're getting.

I've never done a "normal" cruise, and I agree I don't ever want to.
