 More important they are changing the overall nature of the performance.  The original was a performance between two talented performers and the other is a performance between one professional and amateur guests.  I really have no desire for the other guests to be involved in the performance.

I have seen these two talented performers in person both playing alone and together and whether it was in an indoor arena with 15-20K+ people or an outdoor stadium with 60-70K+ people, thousands upon thousands upon thousands of amateurs were singing along with them and at times encouraged to by these professionals.

yes, but a Disney cruise costs about 3x as much. I’d rather see a few rust stains and chipped tile and cruise more!

And also on a Carnival cruise you may get to see more Goofy characters.

Magic is on the move

Another Flex Tape success story.

Here is a short video clip posted in the last hour on YT that purportedly shows damage from the inside of the Magic being repaired and minor flooding after the pier mishap yesterday.

Wow! I could tell you were tall!

The good news is now @Jamman54 can make it under all the bridges. 😉

They say Fred's been shut-off at the bars...

I think I figured something out about the noise. My little hallway has 7 rooms. I think three of them are traveling together. They have the same door decoration but with different last names. They’re probably going back and forth, slamming doors, screaming , etc like it’s their little house.

 

Well then how about using some of that toilet paper stash you aren't using and TP their doors!

People down the hall are constantly letting that door slam. I hope there’s a night when I get to bed early and up early so I can wake them up.

 

They are definitely too heavy to pack but then again a 5am cymbals wake up call just outside their door might be appropriate here.

I think they’re setting up for towel folding demo

 

 

 

Or for a table un-folding one.🙂

Isn’t this late to be starting a pickleball tournament? I think they’ll be in bed by then.

 

Yes but it would be fun to watch if the players have been testing the limits of the drink package all day...

Good morning Cruise Critic and Tribe families! Even though there is no football today, I will still be drinking beers with friends. Therefore I will not be posting any pages today. Tomorrow I will get you into Amber Cove and some more Tribe shenanigans. Have a great Sunday everyone! 😃

They will show the Super Bowl on the Lido big screen. In these pictures the roof is open. 

It could get pretty wild if they have a Taylor S. and Travis K. drinking game onboard...

Awesome pictures! Thanks for sharing Heather! 😁

You're welcome. I didn't think you'd mind. 🥰

I do think anyone paying for @Jamman54 Onlyfans content might mind if people keep sharing shirtless pics of him on here for free though! 😉

It’s easy to see why I haven’t been booking Carnival. I do have five more cruises with Carnival in the next 14 months. Two of them were booked a year ago and two of them were booked two years ago. Let’s get on with what may be the beginning of the end.
 

Happy to be onboard online with you right from the beginning for this one...

Another question would be when he says HO! HO! HO! is that just code for saying lets go to Hooters?

Trying to be serious here...

If you ever get the chance to sit down with @Jamman54 and his wife Patti and have a drink or two, you'll find two of the nicest and easiest going people you'd ever want to meet!!

 

They truly are who they seem to be on CC, friendly and approachable too!!

I missed out connecting with them on the Venezia back in Sept/Oct. Has anyone ever cruised with them in late December or are they usually busy?

I thought that their home delivery service was called "Knockers". 😁

Well I do know that in Cozumel they are always ready to deliver Hooters to cruise passengers.

Hey Rob. Hope all is well with you.

I am doing good and will probably be on the Venezia again in mid March. In April I have plans for hopping on the Horizon and Celebration down in Miami. I hope all is well with you and if I see you in a future roll call with me I will be sure to remind you to bring some of those great cookies again like you did back in Sept/Oct on the Venezia.

Here's how I view Hooters...

All the lovely ladies working there are typically young enough to be my daughter or grand daughter.

Keeping that in mind, they kinda become background noise.

The reasonably priced beer, that they'll put a bag of ice in a pitcher to keep ice cold.

The reasonably priced wings and other bar fare coupled with sports on TV keeps me coming back!!

 

Now when they open Cooters for all us Sr citizens, you'll never get me out!!

I've never been happy with their home delivery service either.

We feel like we're the post game show with all the highlights! 

Oh boy I hope there were no controversial plays or bad ref calls to review!

That was a concept video. That vid is not on a ship, they are not really playing, and the lids on the piano wouldn't be. It was a slow roll out. I was still playing solo in 2020 on the ships that all wound up being sold in May of that year, which were Veemdam, Maasdam, Volendam, and  Rotterdam. It was outaourced. I'm  guessing what happened is that it underperformed, but they paid a flat rate for x number of years. The same can be said of the jukebox production shows and Lincoln Center. 

Correct, and the concept was dueling pianos not dual. The fourth ship sold was the Amsterdam. The Volendam continues to sail and will this summer out of Boston and Montreal. The Zuiderdam will sail out of Boston and Quebec City while also doing this and next year's VOV cruise out of Boston along with a couple of Caribbean cruises in the Fall from the city.

That's my understanding, also.  It was dual (as in 2) pianos.  Not dueling (as in challenging each other to see who does it best).

The concept always was and is dueling pianos as can be seen in this video direct from Holland America from 2017.
