SAXOPHONES & GLACIERS?

Nothing says 'Alaska' like Kenny G, right?


I didn't think so either, but don't tell that to the top PR brains at Celebrity Cruises. They are planning a 7 day Kenny G Alaskan Cruise leaving Vancouver on May 17, 2013.


And if you plunk down a 'C' note for the 'G' cruise before 1/15/12, not only will you reserve your space on the Celebrity Millennium but you will be:


1. Booked for orchestra seating at Kenny G's opening performance at the main stage.


2. Invited to an exclusive 'Up Close & Personal Chat Session with Kenny G'.


3. Have the opportunity to pre-book on Kenny G hosted optional shore excursion.


Yowza. My spit valve doth overflow.


But if your trust fund check doesn't arrive until the 16th, don't despair - you can still enjoy all things Kenny including:


1. Up-close-and-personal events with the one and only G man.


2. G's melodic sounds at exclusive performances.


3. Photo sessions with KG.


4. Join 'you know who' at his Champagne Reception


5 Optional shore excursions hosted by (take a wild guess).


Oh yeah, you'll also visit the Alaskan gold rush towns of Juneau, Ketchikan and Skagway, get an up close view of the magnificent Hubbard Glacier & be pampered, entertained & over fed by the talented staff of the world class Millennium.


Plus spend the extra green to reserve a suite & there's more:


1. Dinner reservations at a specialty restaurant with Kenny G serenading all suite passengers


2. An exclusive photo op at a dinner event


3. Premium Orchestra Seating at Kenny G's opening main stage performance


4. And - a dream come true - an autographed Kenny G photo.


Now can you really put a price on all of this 'G' joy? 


Obviously Celebrity can. Per person prices range from $1,999 for an inside cabin to $9,999 for the penthouse. Suites start at $4,599.


And don't forget to add on almost $300 each in taxes & fees.


'I am excited for the opportunity to cruise with my closest fans aboard the Celebrity Millennium through Alaska,' said the G-ster. 


'The experience of playing with my band and sharing the breathtaking sites of one of the most beautiful destinations in the world is going to be one I will remember forever.'


Hey, if you were paying me between 2 to 10 grand a head for a week, I'd remember you too - and for a very long time.
