If putting myself further in debt to do this makes me a "rich snob", well then so be it! *sticks nose up in air and walks off to roll change*

Matt had come out here in February last year and we attended a benefit concert for Nino Notaro (Sacred Reich, Flotsom & Jetsom, etc;)
He told me I need to get myself booked on this Metal cruise they were playing on in Jan 2011.....thats all it took
I came.....I saw......I conquered

Cool Deb - can't wait to meet Tambre and the rest of the Forbidden crew (and Forbidden is next on my "cram for the cruise/bands that I need to check out list!") Well, and you already know I can't wait to meet YOU .
"SINGLE AND READY TO MINGLE!," eh? Well, I'm not single but I kinda wish I could clone an evil twin that was

Pedro from Portugal wrote:Nice thread idea and some nice stories so far. For me it all started with Fernando Ribeiro, from Moonspell: he wrote a column in a local Metal magazine called LOUD!, and in the April 2010 issue, the column was titled “Wacken in High Seas”, where he excitedly told the readers about Moonspell being invited to play on an All Metal Cruise. WTF is this? Out of curiosity, I googled 70K tons and I was amazed. The announced bands I really knew and liked at the time were Moonspell, Finntroll and Epica (I had seen them live just days before… and fell in love with Simone!! ) but the idea itself was so wild… I was getting out of a gothic relationship that turned into a gothic nightmare, I was getting out my divorce (yeah, don’t ask), I was having a hard time at work, firing people and hoping not be fired afterwards (yeah, I work in bloody Human Resources), I was (was?) below the water with debts, but still I dared to dream, because that was just what I needed: to get away from everything!
I wanted to come alone and just meet people from all over the world who like the type of music I like (actually I had no choice otherwise, since all my friends have aged “normally” so they enjoy classical music, or jazz, or world music or some other stuff…).
So this lonely Metal soul came into this Forum looking for strangers to share a cabin, first I found Adrienne, a nice girl from Alaska, then I found (or she found me) our beloved Queen Debborah, and the rest is (WILL BE) Metal history!!

Definitely! Great to have you on broad!
I can't remember exactly where I found out about this, but I was on the couch one night (not looking at porn on the computer for once) and when I saw the site, I yelled at my girlfriend who was working on her computer in the other room "Hey you wanna go on a cruise?" She said "Sure, when and how much?" She wasn't thrilled about the cost, so I said "It can be our honeymoon!" Engagment. BOOM. Who says romance is dead?
