Skuttlebutt Posted May 29, 2009 #276 Share Posted May 29, 2009 Kathleen and the Saints will be playing in Infinity's Rendezvous Lounge until the end of their contract in October. If you like to listen or dance to a talented group, this is one group you should not miss. They have played on Century in Europe and Millennium in Australia.

Napi's Mom Posted May 30, 2009 #277 Share Posted May 30, 2009 Kathleen and the Saints will be playing in Infinity's Rendezvous Lounge until the end of their contract in October. If you like to listen or dance to a talented group, this is one group you should not miss. They have played on Century in Europe and Millennium in Australia. Guess music is...like food...a subjective...we heard them on the Mille in Austrailia...and couldn't STAND them, her especially. Dancing isn't my thing, the singing is what I listen for and she was awful. Wasn't just me, I'm hypercritical, my DH isn't...very easy going and he'd rush us thru before & after dinner so he'd not have to listen to them!

C 2 C Posted June 17, 2009 Author #278 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Floris just posted this update from Millennium: Hello,Master Michael Karatzas is back as Captain since June 12. He’s doing an excellent job in creating visibility. Apart from the 12 noon announcements, he makes announcements on where we are sailing, things to see along the way, etc. Typically he comes on right before sail away. He and his officers are also frequently visiting Cova Café to chat with passengers. Hotel Director is Niina Hautaniemi, who apparently served as Hotel Director on Constellation for the past 3 years. The Cruise Director is James Calhoun, the Captain’s Club Hostess is Anna Duwall. Cheers – Floris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyB1935 Posted June 17, 2009 #279 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Hi Arno, We just left the Azamara Jouney last week and the Captain was Georgio Theodorou. I guess he is no longer on the Century. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisingdelt Posted June 18, 2009 #280 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Captain Pagonis will be back as Master of Constellation on May 31. How long do the Captain's tours of duty last. We sail on the Connie 10/31 and would enjoy sailing with Captain Pagonis again. He is one of the best in the fleet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C 2 C Posted June 18, 2009 Author #281 Share Posted June 18, 2009 How long do the Captain's tours of duty last. We sail on the Connie 10/31 and would enjoy sailing with Captain Pagonis again. He is one of the best in the fleet. The tours are normally 3 months long. (guesses here) Captain Pagonis: June, July, August............................. ? December etc Captain Manetas: .........................September, October, November There may be other events that impact these duty times.. re-assignment to Solstice Class for example. I can only guess at the seniority impacts of other ships in the fleet when XFRs take place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

midsouthj Posted June 18, 2009 #285 Share Posted June 18, 2009 They are absolutely fabulous IMHO... Singer has an incredible voice. Even if you're not "dancers" they are enjoyable to just listen too. Not to mention he has a "wicked" sense of humor... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Andy & Sheila: We enjoyed sailing with him on Galaxy last year. I look forward to sailing with him again. He replaced Captain Mitropolous who moved to Infinity. How would you compare interaction with staff compared to your Celebrity experience? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C 2 C Posted June 20, 2009 Author #288 Share Posted June 20, 2009 who are the matre d's on the millenium? asst matre ds? The only way to find out is to ask that question of someone actually sailing on Millennium. There are a couple of posters with Millennium threads: http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=1004698 and you posted here: http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?p=20055642#post20055642 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spencerdrivecruiser Posted June 27, 2009 #290 Share Posted June 27, 2009 Does anyone know what happened to Ziggy Lisowski? We last saw him on the Millennuim in November 2007. We enjoyed meeting him and wondered what ship he is on. I do not see his name mentioned on the listing provided in this thread. Is he still with Celebrity? We would like to sail with Ziggy again. thanks Spence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C 2 C Posted June 28, 2009 Author #291 Share Posted June 28, 2009 From Infinity: Who’s On Board? SHIP……Infinity…………… Sailing Date………June 12 2009………… I just returned from the 19-26th cruise to Alaska on Infinity. Although I do not have the dailies, based on memory: Captian: Theo Mitropolous (I think he may be relatively new based on a story the cruise director told) Cruise Director: Artie Anderson (be prepared to hear "Hakuna Matata" a lot!) Party Band: Top Notch Acapella: Soundwaves Guitarist: Cesario I know the strings group was a 3 piece ensemble, and Michael's Club had a man who was a pianist/singer. Hope you find the information helpful. Maybe someone else can fill in the other blanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZiggyKeys Posted June 30, 2009 #295 Share Posted June 30, 2009 During a cruise on The Connie late last year Ricardo at the Martini Bar told us we would catch Togi on Solstice during our May 09 Med cruise, sure enough there he was. However, Togi told us he will be joining Equinox in Southhampton. Again, we'll be lucky enough to catch him on our Jan '10 western Caribbean trip. Togi also is trying to get Ricardo to join him. Imagine both of them woking together again !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
