Es obligatorio tocar un instrumento? No se puede solo canto?

I really enjoy your videos and wish you would put out more of them. I was a cruise ship musician (part of a 'Party Band' with contracts mainly on RCCL) for a number of years, and I liked every aspect of the cruise life. It would be cool to see live performance clips of you. Keep the videos coming - Cheers !

As an available and experience, saxophonist guitarist, what is my best method of finding a contact to be a cruise boat musician? this is a long time dream of mine. 🎷🎼🎸

How long are the sessions and how many gigs per day and sets ? I’m a singer / guitarist soloist wondering how the voice would hold up singing everyday ??

I love your videos, I really would like to work in a cruise ship, as a Magician, or dancer or singer, but maybe it would be very hard because of my age ( over 50), meanwhile I will enjoy your videos

Hi! I have a question. As a solo musician who is required to know hundreds of cover songs, are you allowed to read lyrics/chord charts while you are performing? Or are you expected to know all of them off by heart, and if someone requests a song, to just "pull it out of the bag"?

[dubafeik]

nice video! here´s my question: if your instrument breaks, you don´t play until you can fix it, do you still get paid?

[MrSDFD]

Do you have additional boat duties other than playing music?

[lonetrout]

Can you give us an example of a typical set list?

Thanks for the informative contents 😇 Do the soloists (singers to be specific) need to perform a brand new program each day?

[rhythmwithshivam]

[susancoelho]

You mentioned that everyday one plays 2-3 shows.... How long is each show for?

Love the video. Really enjoyed it. 👏. I have a question. Can you play blues, rock as a Solo Musician on a Cruise Ship? I’m a solo musician who plays with tracks and mostly the Tourists circuit (all the hits, classics etc) but I do one gig a week where I get to play blues & rock etc and it’s my favourite gig of the week (as they are my favourite genres) and I was wondering if that’s possible to do on a cruise ship? I haven’t been on a cruise ship so I don’t know if there would be a demand for that type of gig?
