Vegas Shows.....What to See?????

Post by Dr.Corona »

Making a trip to Vegas shortly (prior to the JB shows unfortunately) and would appreciate feedback as to the Vegas shows I should consider seeing while in town. Considering comedians, illusion acts, big stage shows, Neil Diamond and other musical Tribute shows, etc.

Feel free to throw out any other must do's while in Vegas!

Note: Three middle-aged couples here so I think a stop at Cheetah's is out of the question!!!!!!!!!

O by Cirque Du Soleil is phenomenal! I've only seen a few shows in Vegas (including Buffett on several occassions at MGM Grand), and this is the only one that I'd write home about. Its rather costly ($90, $113 & $136 priced tickets) and sells out, so you'll need to get your tickets well in advance. This show is at the Bellagio.

I'm going to Vegas 10/21-10/25 to see Buffett again, but will also be taking in another Cirque Du Soleil show, Mystere. I'll let you know how that one is.

What's your time/budget/interests?

Have you been to Vegas before? If so, how long has it been?

I just got back last night and go several times a year.

Dean_siu lives there so he should have some good input (although he's a Cheetah's type of guy :wink: ).
