Jam Cruise: The Entry Voyage

I created the first posting for Jam Cruise on Wikipedia tonight, and it seems that the administratorz are on top of randomness.

I entered just the name Jam Cruise with the intention of furthur editing the post. By the time I had created the small amount of descriptive content, User JDoorjam deleted this article after I started editing it, with a reason of: content may meet Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion. The given reason is: {{{1}}} . I guess since I did not enter any definition, it was instantly deleted, which shows that Wikipedia is always being watched.

Since I started the article, I am going to add a post at the JamCruise.com website letting the 2,000 or so people who actively post everyday know. Hopefully, I can spark some interest and get the Wiki article to grow exponentialy without my own efforts.

The following is what I wrote...

Jam Cruise: An unrivaled music and sensory experience at sea.
Jam Cruise is a cruise line which hosts a variety of jam based musical artists who play music throughout the voyage from morning until night. The cruise is running for its fifth straight year and boasts a following of loyal cruisers who get the option of being the first to return every year.
Musicians from previous cruises include artists such as Bela Fleck and the Flecktones, Yonder Mountain String Band, Les Claypool, Particle, and the list goes on. The artists on the band are passengers just like everyone else. One may run into and mingle with any number of famous artists throughout the journey. The artists are humble and may even sit and play some random music with you.
The cruise travels throughout the Caribbean Sea and will hit a number of islands before returning to Fort Lauderdale, where it launches. Previous islands the cruise ship visited include Ochos Rios, Jamacia; Grand Cayman Islands; Costa Maya, Mexico; Nassau, Bahamas. The voyage is extremely comfortable and is currently utilizing the MSC Opera, one of the newest cruise ships sailing the Caribbean, which made its maiden voyage in June 2004. The ship combines the elegance of Italian design and style with modern comforts and conveniences creating the best of both worlds on board. Public areas offer spaciousness both inside and out. The 856 cabins, many with private balconies, are roomy and comfortable.


Until next time my fellow insomniacs..

Hell yeah! I went on Jam Cruise 4, and it was an eye-opening, mind melting event. I bought and drank a shot of Tequila with Les Claypool off of my friends room card while my freind was passed out in the disco covered in fliers.

I watched the sun set and rise over water every night and got to sit in the hot tub and swim in the pool for a number of shows.

I saw about 40 shows in 1 week!
