In most cases I would agree with this. But if you're set on seeing Love, however, I would highly recommend booking in advance. For each of the three nights that we were there it was completely sold out. This was including Tix4Tonight. When I was there last year I couldn't get last minute tickets for it either. This time around I wasn't going to miss it and paid full price and don't regret it one bit as I wouldn't have been able to get in otherwise.
For most other things, however, Tix4Tonight (you'll see them around on the strip) is a good bet for tickets at a discount. Most things were either available for that night or the next night.

Easy. Go take some shrooms and watch Cirque De Solei. When the shrooms kick in and you start bugging out, feel free to thank me.

I saw Ka a few years ago and I couldn't help but think shrooms would be out of this world. Even a nice big joint would have done wonders but I'm always worried about being arrested for drug possession in the States.
On a related note has anyone seen Avatar on shrooms? THe 3D would be insane.

choosing between freemont street and cirque doesn't make sense to me..you HAVE to do both really, go to an early cirque show..freemont doesnt really get wild till 11 anyway..2 very different experiences..one is culture and one is craziness! we were there in october this year when there was a biker convention and a tattoo convention going on at the same time..needleess to say it was insane on freemont! and there were about 12 cops at every entryway to every casino down there..but it was a BLAST!! the light show was America Pie by Don Maclean that night and it was very magical, something about that song playing and thousands of drunk people singing along to it..anyway..go to cirque then for 20 bucks catch a ride to freemont after for a cheap dinner and great drinks..we had steak and lobster for 9.99, our drinks were 14 bucks, but they were about 20 oz. and there was 14 oz. of alcohol in them  ive seen a few cirques and 'O' was the most amazing thing ive ever seen

Fremont street is interesting, but it defintely shouldn't be high on your list of things to do in vegas.
Love at the Mirage is incredible, especially if you have an appreciation for the Beatles. I went with a group of young guys, and Cirque normally isn't our thing, but we were completely blown away. The Blue Man Group was also a lot of fun
My parents have been to all the Cirque shows in Vegas (if your looking for a little older perspective), they rave about O at the Bellagio as well as Ka and they hated Zumanity

I have been to Vegas about 10 times and have never made it down to Freemont street. Closest I have ever been is when I stayed at the Stratosphere one time and at that end of the strip it was starting to get a bit seedy.
On our last visit in May it was the first time I have ever even seen a show in Vegas. As part of our package we got tickets to KA at MGM. It was pretty damn good, I would recommend seeing it for sure. Especially with a big group, it makes for a cool night out.
I guess I need to see more of Vegas, generally we just play poker, drink, hang out at the pool and see the amazing shows they put on at Spearmint Rhino. Every show is different there and I love them all.

If looking for either of the following: midget strippers or midget escorts, Weed, or Blow look for man called 'Z' around Paris. However he doesn't deal in African American women as thinks they're too much drama.

Wow.. tough crowd. I'm a huge Beatles fan, and I loved it. I love the soundtrack too.

I'm just going by what she said. She also told me that BLT Burger at Mirage had the best burger and milkshakes she has ever tried... I've had better.

I know what you mean. By the last day of the trip I can't wait to get on the plane and get the hell out of there. Then about a week or two later I am dying to go back.
Only 144 more sleeps till my next trip.

I always thought the best thing about vegas was the bus rides to the Hoover Dam and Grand Canyon. Then again I had absolutely no money when I was there, so no slots or sluts for me.
