BARENAKED LADIES + LYNYRD SKYNYRD SET SAIL AGAIN

BARENAKED LADIES and LYNYRD SKYNYRD are set to hit the high seas next year (08) as part of an ongoing cruise initiative. The sea-faring bosses of Georgia company Sixthman have invited the two party groups to entertain clients as part of two separate themed cruises in 2008. Lynyrd Skynyrd will headline on Rock Boat VIII, while Canada's Barenaked Ladies will perform on the Ships + Dip III. Each cruise will feature live performances and the chance for guests to meet the band. The 2008 cruising concert won't be Skynyrd's first - the FREEBIRD rockers performed on the Gimme 3 Days high seas festival on a ship bound for the Bahamas in January (07). Next year (08), the group will headline concerts on a cruise to Mexico, while Barenaked Ladies will set sail to Grand Cayman and Jamaica. Barenaked Ladies are no strangers to the cruising concert concept either - on this year's Ships + Dip adventure, the fun-loving IF I HAD A MILLION DOLLARS group performed and hosted wine tastings and game nights onboard. Meanwhile, a spokesman for Sixthman tells Billboard.com the company is hoping to line up a 2008 cruise with THE BEACH BOYS.
