I think (hope) there will be enough fun things happening in Vegas to keep him away from the scary stuff! Between Margaritaville, Nadira's show, Jimmy's show, the pre-parties, gambling, and a couple of hours of sleep, we just won't have the time to get to the Fright Dome! Right, honey?
There is some logic there...I hope!

Where is everyone staying? Is there a list? I am confused about who is going on the 18th and who is going on the 25 and who is (lucky folks) going to both...

We're going to the show on the 25th and staying either at Hooters or Bally's. We have reservations at both and haven't decided yet. Bally's is closer to Margaritaville and Hooters is closer to MGM and costs less. We don't care about fancy because we won't be in our room much anyway.

Vegas 25th pre-concert activities

Post by clenaghen »

My wife and I will be attending our first Buffett concert in Vegas on the 25th of October for my 40th birthday. We are looking forward to attending the renown pre-concert festivities and would like any tips or advice related to the concert on the 25th. Is there a specific area that the pre-concert party will be held? We are assuming the MGM parking lot? Any other advice we should know about? Thanks and see you all there!

Welcome to BN, clenaghen! :D

Wow, a virgin AND you'll be the pirate looking at forty! Very kewl!! 8)

(BTW, our first concert was Las Vegas, which is why we keep coming back like trout, I guess... :lol: )

The concert pre-party starts with the street party - this is usually phun! They block off the street next to Margaritaville (anybody remember the start time?) and historically, once things end there a lot of us shuffle off to MGM via monorail for their party. That said, the MGM party s**ked big time last year - I think they've been going downhill every year - so not sure about this year. The nice thing about going the 2nd week is we get to see what worked for the pholks at the first show.

If you're in town, please join us at Margaritaville on Friday for Nadirah's show. You'll have a great time.

Looking forward to meeting you both in Vegas!

Definitely be checking out things at Margaritaville. We get into Vegas on the 23rd and will be there until the 27th, so there is plenty of time for us to party! We are really excited for this and have been planning it as part of my 40th b-day for awhile!

Welcome!!! Glad you are going to join us!! I hung out at the Maragritaville street party most of the afternoon. I believe it starts at noon!! After the concert we all went out by the pool at Hooters (which is across the street from the MGM) I think we might have gone there before the concert as well. I know most of the festivities the 1st week are held there. Looking forward to meeting you and to help you celebrate you B-day!!

The second show in Vegas last year was our first Buffett concert.
The street party at M'Ville was a hoot. I had to go back to the hotel for a little nap before the big show. Maybe 1 too many frozen concoctions..
See ya there..

I will be the one wandering around with the silly golden retriever. Only 2 more weeks until I leave for LV. I have my tropical fish beach balls, and I stocked up on beads and leis the other day. Ms Sammie dog even has her own set of beads and a pink Margaritaville shirt, so we are all set.
