So I just watched the Rumours tribute band on the Norwegian Breakaway cruise ship. They did Rumours in it's sequential entirety, plus Silver Bed Springs at the end. They were good, although they had 4 lead singers. Two guys and two girls. Seemed a little too Glee like in their beaming for the audience, and they were sometimes a tiny bit pitchy. And I kept trying to find evidence of tracks, but when you have 8 people on stage, it's hard to tell(Don't Stop had the high string note playing, the first half of the song, and he wasn't playing it, unless he was holding a sustain pedal the whole time). And the show was only 45 minutes. But hey, for the price I paid($0), it was well worth it. I'd go see them again, and pay, but not for 45 minutes. Especially with 4 singers. Stretch that bitch out!

Oh yeah, and when GYOW was ending, I began sobbing, and my shirt was wet with tears during Songbird.

That is correct. I'm terrified of heights, and planes fall into that category with me. From the 18th floor of this vessel(sun deck, basketball courts, etc), I won't get near the edge, because looking down scares me. Looking at the horizon is fine, though.

Why should I be afraid of cruise ships? Titanic?

If they played Silver Girl on repeat, you'd jump over that edge real quick!
