dude,
its VERY likely that the band will come on late so you could still see part of the show. i think it would be worth it, you should totally try to do it. or change your flight!

Hey, listen to this for shitty luck (depending on how you look at it)

I'm getting married in a couple of weeks, and our honeymoon consists of a romantic week in Mexico, then 4 days in Vegas (all booked a while ago) So I hear that the greatest band in the world is playing in Vegas on the night we get there but however our plane doesn't land until 11 pm, definately too late to make the show.

So I'm just asking if anybody could give me the heads up to the after party that night, we are staying on the strip and be up for anything

Hey
Thanks for the encouragement, but unfortunately the trip is set in stone, so it doesnt look like I'll make it in time (after we go thru customs and shit cuz we're flying from Canada)

I might be able to talk the missus into traveling to Cali for the next bunch of shows, but we'll see.
Keep me informed however as to the post party, I wanna know what its like first hand.
And if Buddha Master sees this, we will definately take him up on his balcony smokey-smokey offer... Or anybody else for that matter.? Vegas sucks without the smoke

[Anarchist]

i am down with the smokey-smokey too, we will be at the venitian--dont know how far that is but we are taking a cab to wherever the good spot by the show to pre-party is.

I stayed at the Venetian back in January. Great hotel     If you have a lady with you, be sure to take her on the gondola 

I'm down for the smoky smoky too and will most definitely be bringing mine.

i hope aladdin's isn't too far?? maybe i will have to take a taxi. i also heard they were changing the name, not that they mentioned that when i made reservations?

[Chief]

aladdin isn't that far really by car but it is very far if you try to walk, so that's out of the question. i'm guessing its about 15 min cab ride.

I was told this was the best way to go regarding transportation because the taxis can get quite pricey in Vegas.  Only runs til 3am though but it might save you taxi fare at least one way and bring you closer to the venue.

[Chief]

very true. good call bandita! i forgot about that. the monorail rules, use it if you can, its much easier than cab!

alladin isn't very far, they were bought by Planet Hollywood so they are changing their name soon.  5 minute cab ride to hard rock.

As far as the monorail, it's ok.  It only stops at certain hotels. I personally don't care for it, i live here and have only ridden it once.

[ann2718]

OK, thanks.    I did ride on the monorail the last time I was in Vegas, but it took me a long time to walk to and from it.
