Yeah. There's some kind of Stones show Friday July 14, 7:00 PM. It's at the House of Blues at The Mandalay Bay.. The add features the tongue logo so it must be "official".

[www.houseofblues.com]

Only $10 !!! The most affordable show in town.

House of Blues:
7/14/2017
House Seats Presents: The Set List 3.0 - The Rolling Stones- Hot Rocks

Sounds....bizarre.

I'd recommend the Gospel Brunch at the House of Blues, and the Beatles Cirque de Solei.
Also good grub at the Peppermill.

A second vote for the Beatles Love CDC show. It's not the Stones - but it's pretty damn cool.

I've seen it twice, about 10 years apart. The visuals are constantly evolving. I would go again.

I'll just have to hold out until Amsterdam and get the real deal then

Half-related only but I'd visit the places where "Casino" was shot. The sondtrack to this movie is more or less a Stones comp...

The casino scenes themselves were shot inside the Riviera Hotel and Casino which is no longer in existence.

The MGM had the Rolling Stones slot machines when I was there last fall.

Another vote for the Beatles Love show at the Mirage.
Been several times, always exceptional.

I would also recommend checking out a few art galleries there that typically feature some of Ronnie's art. Can't remember the names of the galleries but one at Mandalay Bay and another at Caesar's, which also has a "Rock Memories" store with lots of "autographed" Stones memorabilia..

Not Stones related but the National Atomic testing and the Mob museums are very good takes.

Rockman, no Amsterdam for you?

I just attended the Beatles Love show at the Mirage the day after Roger Waters last month. Go see Love!

Friday 11 August 2017


Rare Earth


Golden Nugget Hotel & Casino, Las Vegas, NV, US

How many nights did you stay ? 6
What hotel did you stay in ? Rio and westgate
What casino did you have the best luck in ? Caesars palace and Rio ( we actually won a few bucks!
What games did you play ? Texas Holdem, roulette and a few slotmachines
Did you visit the newly opened weed stores ? No

We took a helicopter-ride to Grand Canyon with the full VIP treatment. Landing down in the canyon for a champagne lunch. It was a seriously nice experience!

It was over 43degrees C every day! and yes, a few minuts one day it started raining. Cold rain in desert heat felt really weird.

Wow. 6 nights in Vegas. My hats off to you. i don't think I could survive 6 nights in Vegas. That's a lifetime for most people.

Place bets on tumbling dice.
