R.I.P. S.S. Coachella

Long-time readers of my blog know that I am a passionate music and music festival fan.  Last year -- about this time -- I set sail on the inaugural S.S. Coachella music festival in the Caribbean.  AEG’s Golden Voice took the massive “Coachella” brand about as far away from the desert as you can get -- a full 180 degree turn -- as we set sale for the Bahamas.  

The results?  Spectacular.  At least for those of us fortunate to experience it (here is last year’s post/review of the event).

Apparently not so spectacular for AEG though.  Looks like the S.S. Coachella is “one and done” -- and we may never see that great event ever again.  Chances faded as June and July passed by with nary a peep about the ocean-based event -- a personal shame because I had absolutely planned on experiencing it again (and inviting many others to join me and my wife, Luisa, this time around).

R.I.P. S.S. Coachella.  Am glad -- and fortunate -- to have known you.  One of the most memorable 5 days of my life.
