First Vegas Trip................

Your packing quite a bit in a short amount of time... remember to plan some "recovery" time if you enjoy a beverage or ten... I would recommend "O" as far as shows go, and avoid the balcony if possible - it is worth the extra money to spring for better seats IMHO. Freemont street is a must. It reminds me of a better time when Vegas was a lot less polished and the price for everything was about 75% of what it is today (such is life). High entertainment value just walking around. The South end of the strip is full of tourist traps and is VERY expensive, but I always find a reason to stop in the Hard Rock Hotel - if its over 80 degrees, it is a nice place to enjoy the view :). Traffic is congested all the time, so plan lots of time just getting around.
Vegas is different for everybody... depending on you age, marital status, and maturity... you can find whatever you want from low key to fast paced action, as long as you don't do dumb things you will have a good time.

Brad,

Sounds like a pretty full schedule.
If you have some free time or have the propensity to "off the grid" entertainment.
I'll be sending a PM with contact info.

PS: I strongly suggest putting my cel # in your phone.
Lotsa strange things can happen in Vegas, not all the fault of the City, itself. Seems that visitors are as likely to lose their sensibilities as they are their bankroll.
It's always a good idea to have a dependable local contact, whether that be for directions...... or, let's say.... bail. Not that I'm insinuating anything.

Brad, stay just sober enough to keep your senses. That is an easy place to get real stupid without even trying.
Have fun and let us know how it went.

Ok any of you guys seen the show:
Award-winning smash hit "Jersey Boys" since I am staying at the Palazzo Hotel in Las Vegas might as well cram that show in the day I get there.

Agreed...Rowdy should be a a speed dial must while visiting Vegas. We have escaped the "what hapeens in Vegas" but the potential is always there. Lots of great recommendations but in four days it's hard to cover all you want to do.

Brad, if I remember correctly, Mondays at "Little Darlings" is amateur night. Starts at midnight so you can go after the other show.

I still have Rowdy's number from when I was there for SEMA. We didn't get crazy, I'm past all that, but we did cruise the strip a little and went downtown. It was cool and it can't be said too often

THANK YOU Rowdy for your hospitality from everyone at TC.

He couldn't meet up one night, but helped coordinate with some other TC'ers who were in town, all while busy with some personal stuff going on.

Oh yeah, I also got a great picture of his car:
