<p>As dinner concludes the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra takes the stage and performs a couple of appropriate numbers to warm up the audience for our headline event: “The Sinatra Legacy,” a special tribute to the music of Frank Sinatra. Your guests will be swinging (The Cabaret Ballroom Dance Floor is Open) as our Frank Sinatra tribute artist performs “Come Fly With Me,” ” The Lady is a Tramp,” “I’ve Got You Under My Skin,”. “Mack The Knife,” “Fly Me to the Moon,” and “My Way.”  We chose a Frank Sinatra Act for our USO Show not only because of his musical fame during the 40′s and 50′s but because he played the Cavalier Ballroom, and because he had his own lyrics for our theme song, “Thanks for The Memories”.</p>
<p><strong>Day 2 (Oct 16) - </strong>Today is free to schedule your own itinerary.</p>
<p>A festive Buffet Dinner begins at approx 6:00pm at another of our local hotel ballrooms, it is a menu of favorite foods from Virginia.

<p>After dinner, you travel to the Sandler Center for this evening’s music tribute “New Jersey Nights,” The Story of The Jersey Boys:  Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons. The lead singer plays a Frankie Valli in his 20′s and performs wonderful versions of “Sherry,” “Big Girls Don’t Cry,” “Walk Like a Man,” “Can’t Take My Eyes Off of You,” “My Eyes Adored You” and, of course, “Let’s Hang On” and “Oh What A Night.”</p>
<p><strong>Day 3 (Oct 17) -  </strong>This morning you need to be at the Virginia Beach Military Aviation Museum by 9:30am.  Here you visit hangars filled with more than 65 military aircraft from WWI and WWII. Then your guests take bleacher seats by the airfield for “Swingtime in the Skies”.  But, wait, there is a surprise before the show can start.  An open-air, antique, English Double Decker Bus sporting a banner for the Glenn Miller AAF Band drives up with Bob Hope, The Andrews Sisters and the entire Glenn Miller Band in WWII uniform waving from the top deck.</p>
<p>Our celebrities and musicians then join the audience for the “Swingtime in the Skies” Air-Show, which features narration on historic planes and music of the era with flyovers featuring both Tri-Planes and Bi-Planes. Once the Air Show ends everyone enjoys a Southern Style Cookout in the Hangar featuring Southern Style Pulled Pork, Fried Chicken, salads, vegetables, Bourbon Peach Cobbler and more.</p>
<p>Leaving the Museum at 12:30pm your group travels to the Sandler Center Performance Hall for a matinee performance of King Neptune’s USO Show.  This event begins with a welcome and a Ceremonial Big Check Presentation by Bob Hope, TAP Partners and The Virginia Beach CVB to the Virginia Beach Area USO. With that ceremony completed our entertainers take over and you enjoy a nostalgic “Thanks for the Memories” evening with the comedy of Bob Hope, the harmony of the incomparable Andrews Sisters, and a 14-piece orchestra that is a tribute to the greatest military band of all time: The Glenn Miller AAF Band.  The song list includes:  “Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy,” “In the Mood,” “Moonlight Serenade,” the Army Air Corps Song” and many more.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Join us in Myrtle Beach for the most fun New Year's Eve Party in America. Gone are the days of Big Band and Champagne, replaced by a Jimmy Buffett Tribute Band and a Margarita Midnight Toast. Gone are those old Tuxedo’s and evening gowns replaced by comfortable Aloha Shirts, Flower Leis and Parrot Hats. This Holiday is all about “Changes in Attitude” as you dance to the songs you know by heart, laugh with your friends, and celebrate the New Years with Jimmy Buffet music and Boat Drinks.

<p><strong>(Please note, transportation is not included with this package).</strong></p>
<p><strong>Day 1 –  Saturday, Dec 29</strong>  Travel Day.  On arrival in North Myrtle Beach at the Hilton Kingston Plantation you find a luxury hotel with large rooms, private oceanview balconies and a beautiful beach.  This evening dinner is on your own.  You have a choice of two oceanfront seafood restaurants at the Hilton or you can stop at one of the great Calabash Seafood Buffets enroute to your evening show.  You will have tickets for either the Carolina Opry or Alabama Theater.</p>
<p><strong>Day 2 – Sunday, Dec 30  </strong>Every day begins with a nice, private <em>Fruitcake</em> Breakfast at The Hilton.  In theme with our event, we’ve created a continental breakfast for early risers.   You’ll have coffees and juices, fresh fruit and pastries, as well <em>as “fruitcakes from the kitchen.”</em></p>
<p>Then at mid morning you enjoy a big meal, a “<em>Fins to the Left</em>” buffet brunch at Ripley’s Aquarium.  It’s a real tongue in cheek, food in mouth experience.   Jimmy Buffett’s hit song <em>“Fins”</em> greets you as you enter the Aquarium; then you have a big buffet among the fishes.  Following brunch you have plenty of time to explore the Aquarium exhibits and “<em>see them circling”.</em></p>
<p>Then your afternoon here in Broadway at the Beach features a <em>“Lost Shaker of Salt Scavenger Hunt”</em> with prizes, discounts and coupons for all participants.</p>
<p>Tonight’s festivities are at Dolly Parton’s Pirate Voyage Dinner Adventure.  This theatrical experience features two full sized Pirate Ships in 15 feet of water with sword fighters, the roar of cannons, acrobats and mermaids.  Combined with live music and a five course dinner it’s a feast for the senses.  Our special event group has a pre-show Pirate Birthday as a “<em>Pirate Looks Back at 40.”</em>  Feel free to dress for the occasion, eye-patches and peg-legs are welcome – but please leave you cutlass at home.   This is an evening where the <em>cannons still thunder and there’s plenty to plunder for all you over-40 victims of fate.  </em>Aargh.<em> </em></p>
<p><strong>Day 3 – Monday, Dec 31  </strong>He sang “<em>Come Monday it’ll be alright,</em>” your Monday will be alright too as you start with a beautiful Caribbean Brunch Buffet at Margaritaville, Jimmy Buffett’s Myrtle Beach Restaurant.  Enjoy the music and the food.</p>
<p>The afternoon features the newest attraction on the ocean – The SkyWheel.   It’s an opportunity for the adventurous to buy a ticket and soar 200 feet above the beach.  Plus there’s time to stroll the Oceanfront Boardwalk and Promenade filled with great shopping.   We suggest, since this evening’s dinner is late that you enjoy an afternoon snack at the LandShark Bar &amp; Grill; maybe a “<em>Cheeseburger with French Fried Potatoes and a Cold Draft Beer.”</em></p>
<p>Tonight’s event is Caribbean Casual – Aloha Shirts &amp; Muumu’s .  We start with flower leis and a nice sit down -  Beach Party Dinner – followed by the “Parrots of the Caribbean” – the #1 Jimmy Buffet tribute band in America.   This renowned musical group does it right with live instrumental music, costume changes, land sharks and beach balls. You’ll be rocking to “<em>Margaritaville,”  “It’s Five O’Clock Somewhere,”</em> and “<em>When the Volcano Blows,”</em> along with other great Buffett hits.   You’ll be dancing til midnight when you toast in the New Year with margaritas.</p>
<p><strong> Day 4</strong> – <strong>Tuesday, Jan 1  </strong>This morning after one last Continental Breakfast you depart at leisure. (Please note, no transportation is included with this packge.)</p>

<p><strong>Day 2</strong> &#8211; <strong>Wed, Aug 8:  </strong>Today begins at the Mother Church of Country Music, the Ryman Auditorium.  Elvis Presley performed here once in 1954 and was never invited back because his style was not suited to the Opry and it’s tradition of Country Music.  You will enjoy our Elvis Imitators on stage as well a tour of this former Opry Stage.</p>

<p><strong>Day 3 &#8211; Thursday, Aug 9:  </strong>This day begins with admission to the Country Music Hall of Fame.   You’ll be able to see Elvis’ Presley’s “Solid Gold” Cadillac as well as memorabilia by many of the greatest recording artists of all time.    </p>
<p>Your Hall of Fame visit is followed by another afternoon of Honky Tonk music shows.  Your Fan Badge will again get you free admission to the same three stages:  Whiskey Bent Saloon, the Frontier Room and Silver Dollar Saloon. </p>
