Puerto Playa Sun, Slams, and Rock & Roll: Day 3 of Chris Jericho’s Rock N Wrestling Rager

On day three of Chris Jericho’s Rock N Wrestling Rager at Sea, the Norwegian Gem pulled into Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic for a lazy day on the beach soaking up the sun. Ragers could disembark and attend the Six on The Beach Party starting at 10 a.m. The drinks were flowing and the music blasted while cruisers hung out at the pool or even took a ride through the lazy river. The theme of the day was The Learning Tree Luau where guests were encouraged to wear their best Hawaiian gear for their day at the beach.

Chris Jericho’s 1980’s KISS cover band Kuarantine played the deck stage immediately following the wrestling. The band focuses on lesser known KISS songs from their no makeup era. The group opened with “I Just Wanna” to start off their thirteen-song set. Chris Jericho as lead vocalist rocked out alongside bassist P.J. Farley, drummer Kent Slucher, and guitarist Joe McGinness. The band played through songs like “Good Girl Gone Bad,” “Cold Gin,” and “Silver Spoon,” ending with “Lick It Up.”

After wrestling we caught up with The Nocturnal Affair for their performance in the atrium. The band is composed of vocalist Brendan Shane, Kellen Kroll, bassist Michael James, Kyle Cunnigham, and Andrew Prechtl.  The band put on another stellar performance after their first on night one with an even bigger crowd in the center of the action in the lobby of the Carnival Gem.

The hosts and fans all shared paranormal experiences that have happened within their lives. Schrader is known for his roles on Travel Channel & Discovery’s hit TV series’, The Holzer Files and Ghosts of Devil’s Perch. The podcast is usually between half an hour and one hour, jumping right into interviews and discussions about all things paranormal.
