Krazy Kruizers Posted March 28, 2007 #27 Share Posted March 28, 2007 On some of our HAL cruises you encouraged to sing along with the piano man. But we have also been on some ships where the piano person did all the singing with no chance of chiming in. Really depends on the person that HAL hires.

jjones Posted March 29, 2007 #28 Share Posted March 29, 2007 Sometimes sing-alongs depend on arbitrary rules made up by the CD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jjones Posted March 31, 2007 #30 Share Posted March 31, 2007 I have observed personal conflicts between cruise directors and "special" entertainers on HAL and Princess. For instance, occasionally the CD will exert his/her authority by making "no sing-along" or "must sing-along" rules, whichever will cause the piano player more frustration. For both CD and entertainer, it is a work environment, not a vacation. Haven't most people encountered similar situations in their own workplaces? I enjoy piano bars very much and have seen a number of entertainers cringe when the CD appears. Just my observation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuthC Posted March 31, 2007 #31 Share Posted March 31, 2007 Thank you for responding, jjones. I haven't been aware of anything like that going on, but I haven't sailed every cruise going, either. :D Obviously, your milage has varied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
