I read the website for the one last year, it looked awesome. Marduk, Testament, Exodus, Obituary to name just a few. Cruise through the carribean, stop and explore mayan ruins, casino on board. The tickets were actually pretty cheap for what it is, $666 all meals paid for and all for a week long cruise. Guess they just kill you on the alcohol and gambling.

The cruise departs from the Port of Miami.

Well, also taxes, gratuities and port-fees, which add an additional $289 or so to the minimum price...which is now $999 for an ocean-view quad. Looks like there were a LOT of complaints about some of the extra charges last year, so they're rolling stuff like pre-paid gratuities into the booking/port-fees charge.

Since Therion can't fit me into a suitcase or sneak me on as "crew," I don't think I'll be going this year...and I really DID want to. Hell, Amorphis was just announced, too. :evil:
