Because of the popularity of the cruise, it is getting increasingly difficult to book for newcomers, even in advance. My girlfriend and I were on a wait list for next month (January 2014), but could not get in.

Today, the cruise managers announced the lineup for the October, 2014 Blues Cruise - leaving from Los Angeles, CA to Puerto Vallarta, Cabos San Lucas and Mazaltan, Mexico. I'll be going on this one.

I have been on two cruises before, but I am astounded at the superb lineup for this cruise. Take a look at this. It is beyond an INCREDIBLE lineup

I take video at every show i attend on the cruise, especially harmonica players. So this one would be a must for me. I don't always post everything I video, and I always ask the artist first.
