Grammy Award Party on board?

[scottam]

Hi Everyone,

 

Does anyone know if Celebrity typically has some sort of Grammy Awards party on board during the airing of the show? We're not huge followers, but almost always watch it and I think a party would be fun!

 

Thanks!

Tammy

I really doubt it. The Grammy's aren't exactly 'must see tv'. They do put important sporting events on either bar or cabin TVs, but as far as I know the only US based tv event that gets a party is the Super Bowl. I believe the Super Bowl gets special dispensation because it drives people to buy drinks ...

We are going to be on the Silhouette during the Olympics, will we be able to watch any of it on our tvs in our rooms or in a bar, do you think.

Grammys are unlikely. Olympics will probably be hit or miss. NBC is not one of the networks they usually carry. You'll see some things on ESPN, at least results

Thanks for the replies. I think you're right about Grammy. Not "big" enough for a party. Oscars could be another story.

You might be able to see them in your room but I seriously doubt there would be any kind of party.

We've been onboard for the Oscars and they didn't do anything for that.

Graeme (Grammy) Kelleher is the Captain Club Host on the Eclipse. He hosts parties every day and night.

 

I have never seen a special Awards Party for him. :D

I've been on 3 cruises during the Super Bowl and there was a big party, once in the big nightclub and the other two times in the theater. The bars were open and there were tables of food everywhere. The game was shown on a huge screen in the theater, in the casino, Michael's Club and all the cabins. That was only one game, so I don't know how much they will show of the Olympics, which go on all day and evening.

I get home from my upcoming cruise the day of the Super Bowl and just before the Olympics. I don't care about the Super Bowl, unless a miracle happens in my lifetime and the Bengals are playing. Since I'm 4 mos from turning 70 (:eek:), I'm not holding my breath, lol.

We did not realize we would be returning on Super Bowl Sunday. When I did realize it I said OMG....what if the Bills are in it,what would we do?! My husband just looked at me like I was nuts. Bills in the Super Bowl? Now that is a fantasy.

Same with us. We also return on Super Bowl Sunday, so we won't get to party on the ship. Would've been fun even though we are not big football fans. Unless, of course, the Bears are playing. Speaking of fantasy football! :D

 

Miched, Funny! Before I posted my original question about this, I searched the boards to see if I could find the answer. All I found were a bunch of posts from Grammy! :D

 

Ah well, so no big theme parties on our cruise. We'll have to just make our own!!! :D

Halloween was fantastic fun - fancy dress, ship decorated

there will be deck parties and themed parties - sometimes it's 60s, 70s or 80s and other times they do an austin powers type one where they do it in the atrium and dance in the elevators too

 

I think there has been at least 2 in every 7 nights

Wow! Kathie, Judie and Scott--3 roll call mates all in a row, lol. Our sailing is on Silhouette a week from tomorrow. Can't come soon enough for me. It has snowed off and on the better part of the last two days with more predicted later today. When the college boy who mows and snowblows for me was here last night I told him I was coming back on the 2nd and asked him to have the driveway cleared for me if we had snow while I was gone. I don't want to come home to a snow-clogged driveway and not be able to get into my garage.

We were really spoiled last year with hardly any snow. I knew the hammer would fall this year. :(

Snow clogged drive and a boy who snow blows for you? You think you have problems? Just be thankful you don't live in the UK like some of us, where we are never prepared and 10cm of snow grinds the entire nation to a halt. We run out of road grit and only main routes are gritted anyway. Our public transport stops, hardly anyone uses winter tyres and if its a monday or a friday most of the working population stay at home.

[Kathie44]

Believe me I know how lucky I am to live where summer and winter problems are minimized by good utilities and service. I have friends who live in Essex and had no air conditioning at their home. When they were moving to another house, I asked if they would have AC at the new house. Silly me, lol. Hilary said, "You don't understand. There is NO AC in the UK except for some public buildings and maybe some prominent tourist venues". :eek:

I didn't grow up with AC, but have had it since we moved into this house--1967. My kids have never known life without AC. All public venues are are conditioned.

In times of snow and ice, the salt trucks which also plow, are always out in force and sometimes they brine the streets ahead of time to get a head start on the oncoming storm. Pretty much all streets get salted in order of importance, so the side streets are not first but eventually get treated. My street is the main drag through the subdivision and includes a big hill half-way through. It gets treated right away as do most other hills and streets with curves. Street crews work 12-16 hr shifts to keep the roads cleared.

Not everyone has a snow blower, but every time a big storm is forecast, the stores run out of them, lol. Sometimes schools do close for a day or two and also some businesses and church activities are cancelled, but life goes on and we don't come to a total standstill.

I am lucky to have Jesse, now a college freshman, who has been my mow and snow guy since he was in 8th grade.

The morning paper has a chart showing how many thousands of tons of salt have been used so far and how much is in reserve. If things keep going like they have been, some communities will have to buy more, which will impact how much money they have for road repair and other projects. Last year we had hardly any snow, so I knew this year would probably be bad.

I miss E-Mailing with Hilary. I haven't heard from her since they moved. They were also changing internet services and I think my E-Mail addy got lost in the shuffle. She didn't give me the new address or I would have sent her a card with my contact info.

This Sat. I head to Ft. Lauderdale and then Silhouette on Sun. for at least a brief respite. :D

Would anyone know if celebrity have any thing for mardi gras? We will be on board to the eastern carribean at that time.

Thanks
