I really hope the next arc is as good also, so far this has been my favorite arc of the manga, by far...

I hope the next arc Luffy meets up with some of the people we've met already... there are so many of them and some of the plot holes need to be filled... at least some of them for now...

I think it will take 2 or more arcs until the crew find itself a musician... I hope they never find one, because he'll surely suck (I think this is why Oda hasn't introduced one yet, he doesn't know how to make a cool musician lol)
