Should be a brilliant cruise/concert combination.
Never been on a cruise ship, only a ferry across the channel - was ill most of the journey, so probably not a good idea to go on this even if i could afford it
Cruise ships are enormous. Saw one just off Grenada a year or two back that was so big it had it's own weather system. I kid you not, as it left the island a cloud followed it, and we're not talking smoke from the funnels here.T4N63R1N3 DR34M wrote: Never been on a cruise ship, only a ferry across the channel - was ill most of the journey, so probably not a good idea to go on this even if i could afford it
I was on a cruise to Alaska (from San Francisco) a couple of years ago. We did hit some bad weather on the way up. That, along with the fact that the ship was going quite quickly up the coast led to quite a bit of motion and also quite a bit of motion sickness. I was spared for some reason, but my wife and daughter were pretty ill and many passengers were doing the old heave-hoChris Monk wrote:Cruise ships are enormous.

Also I was on a dive boat between two of these monsters in Saint Lucia the other year and I was petrified. Two shear walls of steel, hundreds of feet high and only a few meters apart. Like being in the jaws of a vice.
I doubt you can even sense the motion of the sea even in a gale.
I doubt this will be a problem on the Cruise to the Edge, but I just thought I'd let you know it is possible. I thought about going too but it coincides with a family holiday. Cruises don't really appeal to me either. Some great bands on the bill but,like you, I'm not interested in seeing Yes again until Jon's back in the band.r4man wrote:I was on a cruise to Alaska (from San Francisco) a couple of years ago.

I gave a bit of thought to going on this cruise, but frankly I'm not all that interested in crusing and although the destination seems nice, it's not really my first choice of places to go. I'm thinking if I am to travel to see TD it would be more fun to see them in Europe or London. Finally, it is "Cruise to the Edge" and I wouldn't mind seeing Yes perform, but it does not appear that the current version of the band includes Jon Anderson and without him I am uninterested. Most of the other bands perform here in San Francisco so if I really want to I'm sure I'll see them
But it does seem like it will be a fun trip in many ways. I hope some TD fan will post a review.

Look for an official email on band announcements and on sale date.
