MEET KENT PETERSON

First, there's:

Then there's:
That said, allow me to introduce "Kay Pee" to you: legendary to all those who know him, unknown to all those who don't. You sort of know him from his penchant for water safety, but I thought everyone needed a few more doses of Kent, aka Guy in Blue, aka Ham Salesman, aka The Great Bambino.
Anyway, THE TRIP: let's take a bunch of people who love to party and love music, put them on a cruise ship, make food and drink available 24 hours/day, replace comedians and tap dance shows with rock bands, and throw in a casino and maybe a waterslide. And let's take it to the Caribbean in January. Sound like a decent time?
Benz paid for, friends they roll...private jets down to Turks and Caicos...



Oh yeah, the music:
TRB Veteran David Ryan Harris played a pair of sets with the band on the ship, a solo set for the VIKs, and sat in on a handful of others. My favorite:


DRH, Marc Broussard, and Joe Stark (Sons of William) playing on a beach deck 20 feet from crystal blue water.
A couple shots from DRH's shows aboard the Carnival Legend:




Yes, that's THE Matty Mangano on bass. He's just a flat out joy to be around. Why?
He knows when you "knead a hand":



He keeps oranges with his apple in his Incase Ripstock Backpack:


Last, but definitely not least, my two favorite recommendations on the ship:
Sons of WilliamZac Brown Band

Try them, you'll like them. Guaranteed. Good music, great guys. I had an absolute blast watching these guys kill it. So fun and so badass at the same time. Kind of like this:


One of the best trips ever.

P.S.: Guys, a valuable fact: girls love speedos. I was told the following:
"You must work out 8 days a week." (I don't)"You shouldn't ever wear clothes." (Yes I should)"I could kiss your mother and father for making such a beautiful creation." (open mouth?)"It was so funny...and so sexy at the same time. You guys are amazing." (can't really argue with that)
So, just a word from Uncle Scotty and Aunt Kent - if you're Single Wanna Mingle, throw on some spandex and hit the streets.
