Went to this - it was awesome - the only thing missing was Vinnie Vincent!

Man, would that be great if he was on this - maybe the next one!

Personal highlights for me - Saxon, Trouble & Sodom

Post 'em if you got 'em !
:lol:
My camera totally betrayed me but I did end up with some decent shots - here are some of them.

I was very impressed by the two vocalists that stepped in for the missing vocalist in Agent Steel. That guy from Helstar sure has some pipes!

Now that's impressive. The fire power you witnessed is astonishing. Thanks for thinking of us to share those pictures with.
SAXON RULES . I thought you weren't allowed to take photos of the Mayan Ruins. Great Pictures though.
Uli Jon Roth !!!
Circle To Circle is playing around my neck of the woods soon.
Motherfucking RAVEN !!!
Trouble = the finest in stoner rock.

Actually, if they would add both Vinnie and Ace for the 2012 Cruise that would really be great!

Indeed !

If the Kiss cruise was on at the same time possibly our ships would pass in the night making for an almost reunion.

That is just bad ass, it had to be cool as hell seeing the bands play in basically a bar band stage set up. I thought these cruises were corny rip offs when they started doing them but the more I see they look like one hell of a time and the bands are putting on good shows.

Had a great time on the first two of these cruises but not going on this next one.
I'm sure it will be great though.
