Cruises featuring full-blown rock concerts

[Hum]

From Kiss to Kid Rock, Matchbox Twenty to Weezer (and many more in between), chances are that one of the coming year?s concert-themed cruises will really float your boat. With several concert cruise promoters in tune with the wants of rock ?n? roll fans, cruise-goers can now listen to chart-topping bands while charting the seas.

Best of all, with rates as low as $500, some of these cruise getaways are priced for a song. Bookings as far out as April 2014 are available.

The Kiss Kruise III
Dates: Oct. 28-Nov. 1, 2013
Rates: From $1,000/person

Sailing a four-night route (Miami to Key West to the Bahamas) aboard the Norwegian Pearl, The Kiss Kruise III comes headlined by Kiss for a fitting Halloween cruise with one of rock ?n? roll?s best-costumed bands. From their full-blown concerts to ?un-masked? acoustic deck shows to band-hosted onboard activities and group Q&A sessions, you?ll get plenty of face time with Kiss themselves. Plus, expect quirky extras like a Kiss-themed vow renewal ceremony and theme nights (like a BYOW?bring-your-own-wig?party), all capped off by a Kiss look-a-like costume contest on Halloween night. The event is put on by concert cruise promoter Sixthman.

Rombello
Dates: Nov. 1-5, 2013
Rates: From $500/person

Another Sixthman-run, Norwegian Pearl 4-nighter from Miami, the Rombello music festival at sea is slated to feature a host of live bands, including Michael Franti & Spearhead, G. Love & Special Sauce, State Radio, and more. Rockin? onboard activities will include games like a live-music-led game of ?boozical chairs? (booze-fueled musical chairs), and activities like a ?silent disco,? where club-goers groove to the beat with headphones.
