I'm also super excited to see Robben Ford, he is a monster and I have seen him from Santa Cruz to Paris.

Re: Keeping the Blues Alive at Sea-- WITH JOE!

Okay, so I have an appointment with my bank in 45 min.  (Sunday, times have changed, huh?)  If I don't get laughed at too much while I'm in there, this just might happen for me.  I still need a roomy though.  Gotta find some one who would appreciate something like this.

I have a trips booked for the fall and next spring, plus I'm working on home renovations (main reason for the bank appointment, just sayin').  So to swing this is going to be a bit of a challenge...I'm up for a challenge!

Re: Keeping the Blues Alive at Sea-- WITH JOE!

Hello,

is it really USD 225 tax per person to add?
I done a NCL bahamas cruise last year and paid only USD 88 p.p.
Why that big difference?
Does anyone know why and if there is?
Thanks a lot. really want to go too

Thanks MINI.......I'm a big fan. In fact, IMHO Joe is the best all around player today. He can do it all. I got to see him for the first time last fall at the Beacon and was blown away.

This is going to be a fantantstic time!

LOL. I laid it on thick. We had a friend who passed away recently. I gave her the old, "we only go around once". and once your gone, your gone lines. I think I even conjured a tear in my left eye.  Don't get me wrong I miss my buddy........but he smoked 2 packs a day and drank like a fish. What did he expect?   I losing 20 pds for this trip. Hope the Food is as good as Joe.

So excited to see both! Are these 2 the emerging artists winners I wonder? I was thinking that the cruisers would get to vote and I don't recall receiving anything? These guys would have gotten my vote smile but maybe that's still to come?

Here's Joe & JD Simo Wee Wee Hours in Cincinnati Novemer 2012, I was there great stuff cool

Re: Keeping the Blues Alive at Sea-- WITH JOE!

I can't imagine there would be any empty slots but it is a good question.   Most regular cruises often discount remaining cabins  the closer you get to the sail date

Re: Keeping the Blues Alive at Sea-- WITH JOE!

It looks like cabins are selling well, so I don't think I'd count on any last minute deals. But, you never know. I think you need to get on the ship, Jane wink   http://www.bluesaliveatsea.com/prices/

Re: Keeping the Blues Alive at Sea-- WITH JOE!

And whatever you save on the cabin you'll probably have to pay to the airline.  In my area that is school vacation week and a very expensive time to fly south - especially last minute.
