What could be better than setting sail on the Western Caribbean for a fabulous 6 night cruise? If you're a Beatles fan,that would be taking your vacation with world-renowned Beatles authors, photographers, artists and a fantastic Beatles tribute band.
On March 28, 2010, Royal Caribbean's newest and most luxurious ship the Independence of the Seas will set sail from Ft. Lauderdale for a special Beatles Tribute Cruise. The cruise itinerary includes stops in Belize City, Cozumel and Costa Maya.
Special guests joining this cruise will be:
May Pang- John Lennon’s former girlfriend and the author of “Loving John” and “Instamatic Karma”
Nancy Lee Andrews- Ringo Starr’s former fiancé and the author of “A Dose of Rock and Roll”
Shannon- the World’s Greatest Beatles Artist
Paul Saltzman- the author of “The Beatles in Rishikesh”
Jorie Gracen- Paul McCartney’s photographer for 20 years and the author of “I Saw Him Standing There”
BritBeat- America’s Premier Tribute to the Beatles who will provide the music.
This phenomenal event is being coordinated by die-hard Beatles fan Woody Lifton. Woody has read almost every book about the Beatles, heard every alternate studio take as well as their most unusual interviews, and even created his own radio about them in 2002. The series ran for 22 weeks and was about the evolution of the Beatles music. It was one of Woody's attempts to share the story of the creation and inspiration of the Fab Four's music with other Beatles fans.
And now he's bringing fans together for a rare opportunity to spend time with those who knew, loved and chronicled their heroes stories and lives as few people have ever done.
Special Beatles Events will include:
- Three performances by BritBeat, including a Costume/Dance Party and a Beatles Guitar Workshop
- Question and Answer session with May Pang and Nancy Andrews called the “Rock N Roll Asylum”
- Question and Answer with Jorie Gracen called “Behind the Lens with Paul McCartney”
- Shannon creating an original Beatles art piece LIVE on the ship
- Paul Saltzman’s “Beatles in India” slide presentation, picture, autograph and vending sessions
- Raffles to raise money for the Dara Roberts Fund.
