The Year In Review: Shows
Well, none of the shows we saw this year were particularly new or hot ... and when I think about it, we really didn't see too many shows or concerts this year at all
So our list comes from our 9th island trip ...
I was sad to hear of it, but the Queen musical ended its run at the Paris Vegas at the end of the last month. This is my show of the year, there is movement afoot to take it around as a touring show around the country. Perhaps it will make it out here eventually. I was amazed how moved I was by this show, I think it was because I was finally hearing and seeing a live performance and interpretation of all their songs, which are so near and dear to my heart. Just amazing.
We saw the long-running Blue Man Group show at the Luxor, and although it was quite good, it didn't really measure up with the Complex Rock tour show we saw in LA two years ago, which was really once in a lifetime experience. But, if you have never seen the BMG, it's quite the spectacle of sound, lights, music, comedy ... it's great stuff. go see it when you make the pilgrimage
The last show, and I do have heartburn about this one, is the Eau show ... yes that O. Never have so few paid so much ... and for what? Perhaps, I am fortunate not to live in the country of its originator, because I would never be entertained LOL. Is it a total spectacle? yes, absolutely ... will you see some amazing sh? yes you totally will ... so what the hell is my problem? I still wonder that until today Cirque du Soleil

Hmmm. Haven't been to Vegas in at LEAST 5 years. My last trip was last year to L.A. and that was stretching it. Didn't get off the rock this year at all. Kinda sad when I think about it. But when there is no moola to speak of... what can you do?
