BOARDING THE CRUISE SHIP!!

[@ComedianOmarTarango]

I saw this vid about 2 years ago, when I was contemplating getting in touch with an agent who would book me for comedy gigs on ships. I am now booked for my first 2 contracts in Dec and Jan. I go back to this vid often to get myself excited about my new journey. Thanks for putting this out!

That’s awesome!! Enjoy and let me know how it goes!

[@malonedrum]

Which ship are you on? Looks like the exact same room I was in on the Equinox. Right at the end of the hall. I played in the jazz quartet on the equinox in 2014

[@callumsmith710]

Your hard work is paying off keep it up

[@paulleone1395]

Hey David, really like your videos. I've always wondered what it was like to perform on a cruise ship. I played in a cover band for years and had friends who did multiple contracts on cruise ships, and heard their stories. But the videos and perspective that you provide is very insightful. Keep up the great work!

[@conoryorkewade]

Great video. What’s the song at 14:56

[@jacer259]

Do you bring your own drums? Or is there a standard kit on ship and you just bring your cymbals? Nice vids!

[@90Aga]

you dont need to bring your own drum set on board, just your cymbals.

[@RandomRex1]

Super cool man! Can't wait to see more!

[@laurieinjapan]

That Elton John impersonator was fun!

[@brianbos6304]

[@JulianFernandez]

[@bodeans59]

How long do you work on one ship or cruise before you get a break? Do you go home for an extended period of time then back to the ship?

[@FusionDrummer9]

Do u bring g your own drum gear beside sticks

[@Noobhead34DoesMC]

[@martijndenhartog]

When you talked bout what you pay for.wifi and stuff id made me wondering, do you get paid per gig or per week? Per month? Per cruise perhaps?

[@90Aga]

You usually get paid every twoo weeks but it depends from the cruise line.

On “ain’t no sunshine” I sing, wine-o, wine-o, wine-o, wine-o......

[@eydermanbecerra]

Hey when will you be in Dublin, Ireland? I live here, you wanna hang out?

[@amandalively1]

Did you ever get your cymbals back?

[@aga196]

13:25 Are you the "Hincha Fiel"? or your roommate was Colombian?

[@danthemansays]

I've always wondered for musicians how the pay is?

[@90Aga]

The wage depends mainly on your experience, wages vary from 1800 up to 3000 $ per month.

[@Yaboroqe]

So tight!

[@6410daniel]

in the Bowls of the ship... room so small

[@tomassandkvist722]

-"Trip-el..aag .. n' baakkn'"... Yeah I know, Swedish is difficult, especially the å, the ä and the ö.. Cudos for trying though!

[@Surmoka]

Not really difficult... ä is e, and practically everything else is oo :)

[@sailstone]

Swedish fanta is superior.
