Blues Cruise - anybody done one of these?

[warnergt]

I'm looking at these Blues Cruises.
Has anybody done one of these? What are your experiences?
And, in particular, I would like to know about anybody who
actually took their bass to jam. Did you get a lot of jamming time?
Do they have equipment you need for jamming? (e.g. amps).
What about a drummer? How do you get a drummer for jamming?
Are drums available?

I thinking of either doing this or going back to the Fur Peace Ranch.
That's a great place for jamming. You don't find drums there
but you do find many very talented guitarists ready and willing
to have some fun.

I played Delbert McClinton's Sandy Beaches Cruise 12 with his son Clay. It was a great time! Since I was in one of the bands I only jammed with others just once. Everyone was totally cool during the open jam sessions. I'm sure if you do a week-long cruise you'll get to jam at least once. If you've never been on one of these cruises I highly recommend it!
