NEW Carnival Legends Show

[TimeYet?]

I have managed to find a list of some of the new legends, but so far have not found the song list. Does anyone have a complete list of the legend performers and songs that are performed?

 

Thanks in advance.

Is there no one out there with this info???

The new jazz show (New Orleans) was fantastic, truly enjoyable, but can not remember all the songs.

Does this mean the show "Hot Jazz" is still on the Legend?

[SkyMaster]

No, I think he's referring to the "NEW" Carnival "LEGENDS" SHOW. It's been rumored that Carnival has finally gotten rid of a few of the legends on the old "Legends Show", and updated them with new legends, and new songs. The only ones who didn't get replaced were supposed to be Elvis, and Frank Sinatra. I "do" the Legends Show every time it's presented, but haven't seen the NEW show yet, or even heard of anyone who has seen it. It all seems to be a mystery? Maybe with the 2.0, and Playlist Productions, the new "Legends Show" was terminated?:mad:

We were the same one 3 yrs in a row including this year on the Dream. 2 time Britney Veteran, what what! :D

I've yet to be on a ship that has this. Do the people that are the "legend" actually sing the songs themselves?

Yes definitely!!! Its completely nerve wracking and quite a production even if you aren't a stranger to the stage. You get no words to remind you, just an mp3 to listen and practice to for a few days on the ship. I did much better the second time and my friend thought she had more fun too. First time, I just thought if I don't fall on my face, I'll be happy. But I didn't like the way the sound was mixed and how I performed it. I much preferred it this year on the Dream. Plenty of volume on the Mic, I could sound a lot better. Rehearsal on stage (you HAVE to come to rehearsal or forget it) went fine, but at performance even tho I feel like I was standing on my star, they say to dance around, and one of the dancers got really close and I whacked her with my arm but I don't think anyone noticed and I kept on track. Its a lot harder than it looks, and Ive been a karaoke diva since I was 6...

Like Mermaids says, it's a lot of fun! It gives you a real "backstage look" into all the blood, sweat and tears that go into doing a show. I've been "Frank" 5 or 6 times, and "Elvis" four or five. Nerve wracking,,,,, but lots and lots of FUN! :cool:

I misunderstood about the Legends show. We were on the Legend last month and saw what we were told was a new show, maybe new dancers? called Hot Jazz. It was excellent.

They did not do the Legends in Concert type show, although we saw it 3 times on our Splendor B2B2B cruise around South America. The singers were Elvis, Tina Turner, Frank Sinatra, Diana Ross, Garth Brooks ?......if this helps.

The New AND old Legends show is being phased out... the NEW show does exist.. James Brown was replaced by Bruce Springsteen in it. There are other changes as well. Ricky Martin is gone and Michael Jackson was added...

still more changes but I just dont remember them all.. the show I did Bruce on was Elation in 2012. I was on her again this year in january and Legends has been replaced by the guest talent show... John Heald posted just the other day that they are thinking of getting rid of that show too and bringing back more professional entertainers...

We have stopped going to the Legends show as it is rather boring seeing the same ones over and over.

 

Would rather they have professional entertainer and hope they go that route.

 

Hope they even update their welcome aboard show as it has brought new meaning to the word STALE.

[sjn911]

I would have loved to have seen Legends once..but glad they are working on both some Live and assisted by audience new entertainment again...maybe they are Listening!!! One thing about not cruising as much as i'd like yet..hard to get boared and my info keeps building..even eras I missed ...LOL..I love it here..keep dreams alive and get to go in spirit with you all!!

Stale and boring can be said about most of the shows, not just the Welcome Aboard Show.:(

Once is all you need, after that not entertaining.

 

Hope you get to cruise soon.:D

True their entertainment is not what it used to be.

 

Going to see our first Playlist production show and it is being panned by most but will see for ourselves.

Depends on the 'luck' of your fellow guests. Some can be cringe worthy, typically the Frank Sinatra (who steals the show) has always been top notch as the serious ones go for that role.

 

We found out years ago on our first CCL that the Talent Show had been cancelled and many of us guests basically pitched a fit. Every cruise I had ever been on had had a talent show (and the only one that didnt, was happy to feature us as entertainment at a deck party). They heard so many comments, they went ahead and redid the schedule to have the Talent show that week. Poor CCL, they cant figure out what to do. The Legends was a GREAT way to offer a talent show feel with a production, and it is quite an experience. But it has been on for years and they have a lot of repeat cruisers plus I think sometimes it was hard to get volunteers for roles. So I certainly can't blame them. I guess SuperStar Karaoke is probably the next best thing, being able to sing with the band. We shall see what they decide to do...

Hope you enjoy more than we did.:D

What exactly is a playlist production show?:confused:

This is great news! On our cruise last month, my husband and I had a discussion about how we love the "concept" of the Legends show, but we didn't want to attend since it's the same songs and joke skits every time. We were hoping they'd switch it up sometime soon. Looks like I might get my wish in a few weeks. :)

They must be rolling out the new lineup very slowly. I was on the Freedom in October and it was still the old show. Hope Glory has the new lineup in a few weeks.

My question, too.
