WINNER ANNOUNCED!

Nov. 26, 2009 – Check out both of our Winners’ Trip Diary and Photos from the Cruise!

Huge congrats to HOH fan and KMAX/Ft. Collins, CO listener Dennis Schenkenberger who will be enjoying the ShipRocked five-day headbanging cruise to Jamaica and Grand Cayman. Dennis and his wife Ann (pictured) will be floating their way to the islands while checking out live performances from Queensryche, Skid Row, Tesla, Ratt and more. As you can see, they’ve got a head start on the “chill” part of the cruise!

Also on their way to board ShipRocked are WBWR/Columbus, OH, listener Lisa Berger and her husband, Phil. Lisa won part 1 of our contest earlier this year.

Enjoy your deluxe cabins, ocean views and 24 hour partying all the way to Jamaica (with a couple of stops along the way!) and feel free to submit photos of your onboard heavy metal high jinks!

Here’s a look at Dennis’ winning entry:

“I am a hardworking blue collar metalhead from the ‘80s. I currently work as a police officer, but beneath the clean pressed uniform, shiny gun belt and short cropped hair is a leather pant wearing, teased hair maniac that has to repress the feelings to jam an iPod down the throat of some yuppie drinking a Starbucks listening to the latest Maroon 5 album. Instead of drinking free coffee and eating donuts I should be pounding Jack Daniels and trashing a hotel room!

I’ve spent the past three months working nights — “Walk(ing) In The Shadows” – and I need five days of Caribbean sunshine. I’m a 39 year old “Modern Day Cowboy” fighting against the evils of country music and easy listening adult contemporary radio stations. The “Revolution’s Calling” and I want to be on a cruise instead of standing on the thin blue line between total chaos and order.

So, for five days let me fight the man instead of being the man. I know that these contests are “Ez Come, Ez Go,” but I would prefer to go. So, do the right thing and look into the “Eyes Of A Stranger” and tell him that he’ll be listening to Operation Mindcrime instead of fighting actual crime.”

Congrats to both winners and their spouses – Dennis + Ann and Lisa + Phil – have a great time and happy headbanging on the ShipRocked cruise!

6. In an effort to try and prevent passengers with potentially dangerous and contagious viruses like H1N1 from coming onboard their cruise ships, MSC Cruises is putting into place new health and medical screening procedures and policies into place at their port terminals worldwide effective immediately. These new procedures WILL BE in place for ShipRocked this November.  Prior to embarkation, all MSC guests will complete a questionnaire utilized by all cruise lines through CLIA (Cruise Lines International Association) detailing their current medical status. Should their responses indicate that they could potentially have the virus, they are then seen pier side by the ship’s medical personnel. In addition, all MSC vessels are equipped with thermal imaging equipment.  A guest with an elevated body temperature is referred to the ship’s medical staff. The staff will evaluate the guest’s condition and has at their disposal “rapid test” kits to aid in the diagnosis of suspected illness should they need it. Based upon this test, if positive, the guest will be denied boarding for medical reasons as a precautionary measure for the health and safety of all guests and crew onboard.  THERE IS NO REFUND FOR YOU OR YOUR GUEST IF YOU ARE DENIED BOARDING!  SO, STAY HEALTHY!!

7. All applicable local, state, federal and international laws apply.

8 . Prize is non-transferable, non-substitutable and has NO cash value in the event of trip cancellation for ANY REASON.
