Shiprocked is sooo much fun. The past 2 years with ITM on board (which is how I found out about it and what got me to book it) was a blast. Some other wonderlanders went too. I am no word smith but it truly is difficult to find words to describe shiprocked. The site says it is the ultimate rock and roll vacation, that is true. Shiprocked is just phenomenal.
I am going again this year (end of January 2014) no matter what the line up is. Shiprocked is more than concerts on a ship or a beach. It is one hell of an experience that is more than just the shows. To me the lineup isn't really going to matter. I think the "Captain" (SR promoter) will do a good job of bringing a good lineup for us.
The lineup should be announced here real soon. That said I would be really surprised if ITM was on board again this year. I think SR would always be better with them but I am still going even if they are not on board. With the lineup announcement should come cabin prices. You don't get "tickets" to Shiprocked, you just book your cabin on shiprocked and everything is taken care of. In the past it cost on average about $1000 to get on board per person. In the past they have listed cabin prices (per person) then there is an additional gratuity and fees. So a cabin price would be like $799 per person with $195 fees so it was about $1000. This year is a new ship, which I am really excited about, so prices may change a bit. I believe they are looking at keeping prices about the same as in the past.
