My husband and I went on this cruise last year in late March-early April and it was awesome. The headliners were Cinderella, Winger, Tesla, Slaughter and Firehouse. Ratt was also supposed to headline, but Stephen Pearcy's sister passed away, so they didn't play. Tesla played a third show instead. The headliners all played at least 2 shows. There are many other bands and solo artists too. It was well worth the money. We met some really cool people on the cruise too. This year's MOR doesn't have as many great bands, so we aren't going. Maybe in a few years. One of the solo artists was Mike Tramp, who we didn't get to see play live, because the venue was so small we didn''t get there to get a place to stand. But the day before he played, he was standing beside us watching Firehouse play, with his friends. He and his friends and my hubby were all b.s.ing. They were all very nice. He is still very good looking, not rough like some rockers get to look like over the years. I also really enjoyed John Corabi's band. They played a lot from the. Mötley Crüe album from when he was a member. Also, Tesla's third show was acoustic and it was phenominal! They are true musicians!

Sounds great! The latest Winger album Better Days Comin´ is excellent.
Check out the Doobie Brothers influenced title track:

Winger: Better Days Comin´

Yes, that track is good. We like to go see Reb Beach solo when he comes home to Pittsburgh. He normally plays every year a benefit show for one of the local volunteer fire companies in the fall. They have a bunch of new local bands play all day, then Reb and his band are the headliners. A few years ago, Billy Sheehan came in and played bass with him. Reb also plays in some other local bars at times. He is a very nice, down to earth guy.
