They had better cancel it before it's called Cruise To The Edge Of Death.

LOL  Yeah, considering the average age of prog musicians and their fans, that thing would end up being a ghost ship like the Flying Dutchman!!  

Hmmmm...."Flying Dutchman"....now that could be an interesting name for a prog band from the Netherlands!

Yep. I am due to see them at Winters End next month, and really concerned it will be cancelled.

I was on the first and second CTTE in 2014. I caught some kind of virus on board during the 2014 cruise which I took over a month to fully recover from. There is a high probability that COVID-19 will made an appearance. Crammed venues on board the ship will be a fertile ground for the spread of the virus.
If the organizers had any consideration for the punters and not their profit margin they would postpone/cancel the cruise.

Your spot on....Every cruise there are band cancellations, I'm expecting many of them to announce this year. Even if I had the cash and stars lined up, I would not be going.

I get seasick too, but only on small fishing type boats in the ocean when seas get very rough, when boat is moving along I am fine, once it stops to drop lines and fish.....I'm chum bait! The back and forth kills me and then loosing horizon perspective. Planes and roller coasters I can do all day long, boats are different. 

Our Med cruise was a snap, no issues what so ever, but we are talking a massive boat (Allure of the Seas) with stabilizers and I never felt the boat move at all, only in the shower did I feel movement.
My concern with CTTE is the Caribbean ocean that can get rough.

I wish I was joking but it's absolutely true. 


My wife gets seasick, too. Even reading a book in the car makes her sick. Nonetheless, we've been on 7 cruises. She goes to the doctor and gets a Scopolamine patch which she wears (and periodically replaces) throughout the cruise, and she hasn't gotten sick! It works a lot better than waiting until symptoms arise, then taking Dramamine pills.
I'm just the same. I can't read a book in the car or on the bus either, or I'd go a funny shade of green. Dead

Hi,

If I could afford it, I probably would go to one ... but at 69, I think I would end up  having a heart attack right after it all, just trying to get some rest from it all ... but getting me into that can of tuna for a few days? 

I don't think so!
Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

Yes, I went on CTTE 2014 with my wife. Had a great time! Had breakfast with Soft Machine and The Strawbs at the buffet. Sat around the pool and chatted with Tony Levin. Listened to continuous performances from 11am until midnight. Saw some of the final performances of John Wetton, Edgar Froese, and Chris Squire before their passing. Incredible. Here's a few pics of me and various bands during their photo-ops...

It would be in my budget, but I don't swim, so avoid oceanic things.  That being said, it's a great idea for a lot of like-minded people to enjoy in one place and get to spend some time with the artists who create what brings their audiences together.
