Work of Art!

missbehave from New York, New York
I am an interior design major from NYC and I was always a big fan of the many restaurants & clubs' tastes in decor. One of my professors whom visits Vegas frequently throughout the year heard that I was heading out there and recommended that I check out the place. My second night, I headed out to the venue and got myself into the one of the most amazing works I've come across! The red chandeliers, the ceiling-high double doors to the main room, the candle light mixed with dance lighting, it's literally a work of art... everything you see is very intricately done, even the glass restroom doors that fog up instantly at the turn of the lock is a mystery! Not just the decor, but service was fast at the bars even when crowded, the music kept the energy up all night (global house is a favorite of mine), and the crowd never stopped having fun, myself included. Can't wait to try the restaurant next time, keep it up Tao!

The husband really wanted to see this show. Blue Man is performed by three mute men. The trio is covered in blue paint. In the show they use a lot of odd props like paint balls, PVC piping, Captain Crunch, and tons of paper. There is also a large portion of audience participation. The tickets were about $69 per person and we had awful seats. We were so high that I couldn't even read all of their signs. The show was high energy and had some really great parts, like when they put paint inside the drums and it splattered all over. The people towards the front are given plastic rain ponchos to protect them from the paint. The show is great for a family, and I'm sure kids would love to towards the front and be in the middle of all the action. The staff were very high energy and really great. We paid around $70 for seats in the upper balcony and the seats on the floor towards the front run around $125. If I were to go again, I would spend the money for better seats. I also filled out the survey card. They called me at home about four weeks later and I did quick interview (5 - 10 minutes). About four weeks after that we got a gift box of a T-shirt and CD in the mail. I was a little disappointed with the overall show. And my husband said that he would "highly recommend" the show.

The gondola rides, a little steep at $20 person but worth it to try it once! Romantic way to spend the afternoon, you make an appointment through their office (at the far end of the canal) and it's about a 20-minute ride while you cruse and listen to your guide sing romantic songs in opera.

The Phantom was really wonderful. Staging was astounding and just as good as seeing it in Toronto. Our seats were perfect, couldn't ask for a better view.

I loved walking through the shops at the Venetian Resort and Casino. It took me back to my vacation in Italy. I also enjoyed the area that replicated all of the cathedrals in Italy. If you have never visited Italy and can't afford to travel to Europe, the Venetian Hotel is the next best thing. My husband and I took a gondola ride through the hotel. The man sang to us. It was very romantic. The casino at the Venetian is inviting. I appreciated that the casino was not very smoke-filled. And the suites in the towers are beautiful. It is well worth the trip to Vegas.
