A powerful performance by Elton John & his Band (Davey Johnstone, Guy Babylon, Bob Birch, John Mahon, John Jorgenson, Jack Bruno and Billy Trudel) during the Millenium party at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas on 31st December 1999. Sorry the second verse is missing, but that’s exactly the version that I have on tape. If there are any copyrights, please tell me. I just uploaded it to share it with people who enjoy Elton’s music. elton john & his swiss fan club swiss-eltonjohn.net

Why Lie I Need BEER – “Don’t Get Too Drunk.”

There is hardly any larger American city where street people or homelessness does not exist, Las Vegas included. It is not uncommon upon seeing these people to think of them as just “panhandlers” or “social outcasts.” It is also easy to avoid giving them a handout by rationalizing “they will just buy alcohol with the money.” Here, this guy openly admits “why lie I need beer.” Ok, so we bought him a beer, but more importantly, what he and all the others really need is food and water. It’s hard to imagine that individually we can do anything to overcome this travesty. However, each one of us can help out a little by giving a little. Vegas Street Scene encourages you to give “a little which means a lot” to our street people and homeless. Think about this: If every visitor gave a quarter to these people, it would amount to over $7.5 million in a year — that is a lot of food and water!!! Since the average tourist spends $600 on gambling, a quarter can’t be asking too much can it? Yes, we give too. Nothing is too little. Please help them! Thank you!!!

Don’t Just Roll the Dice-how to Plan a Las Vegas Vacation

It’s not surprising that Las Vegas visitors can maximize their enjoyment with a little planning. Considering the myriad of possibilities to be experienced in exciting Las Vegas, planning out your day (or night) is your best bet. Knowing what to see, and when, can help you save time, energy and money. A bit of research will narrow down your choices, and help you focus on only your favorite entertainment options.

With so much happening in Las Vegas, it is easy to become overwhelmed and sidetracked. Travel websites and guide books detail resort and casino amenities, current shows, resort attractions and types of restaurants, and phone numbers to help with planning. Once a guest narrows down preferences, it is easy to structure a workable plan.

For example, one person may want to see the newest shows. In that case, they will need to select from musicals, comedies, and magic shows, etc. Then, it is a good idea to always call to find available seating. (Often, the best place to call is the actual theater, since “discounters” can charge above the face value of a ticket.) Since entertainment is of prime interest, this person should order tickets before leaving home, as first-run show tickets are not found at half price ticket booths in Las Vegas.

This same traveler can now arrange an itinerary around their show schedule. Using maps and guides, dinner reservations can be made at favored restaurants near show locations, assuring plenty of time for relaxed dining. Then, working backward, if they know that they must leave the resort by 6 PM, they can structure their Vegas day to get the most out of it.

The same logic applies to an individual who wishes to experience fine dining. By making reservations well in advance, this person will know how to arrange their day, and that the 11 PM show is a definite possibility. They will not need to sacrifice a special meal or entertainment due to crowds or time restraints.

Las Vegas is much larger than it appears, and it takes longer to walk or catch cabs than what one would expect. (Plus, if a visitor decides to stop into a casino “for just a few minutes”, it often turns out to be much longer!) Therefore, travel planning should be conservative. Filling time in Vegas is always easy, but if a guest must rush or miss out on what they have anticipated, it’s very frustrating.

There are several other considerations unique to Las Vegas. Typically, visiting resort attractions may take anywhere from 30 minutes to a few hours. This does not include 10 minutes to walk through the main casino, or waiting for free shows. Add shopping to this plan, and a visitor may only be able to tour 3 or 4 resort/casinos in a day. This is why it is best to sight-see resorts in groups of proximity. However, if a guest will be seeing one of the shows at a resort, they can view its attractions before or after; almost everything in Las Vegas is available 24/7, which certainly helps with planning.

Unless you are going to Vegas for the primary purpose of spending hours at the poker table or slot machine, gaming can easily fit in anywhere where there is free time. Inquire into a “player’s card” before gambling to get credit for gaming and future discounts. Just be sure to wear a watch, as there are no clocks in casinos! If a guest enjoys swims or workouts, they should know that some facilities are not available past 5 PM, and outdoor pools are usually closed between November and April.

Regarding transportation, taxis are not flagged down; lines form in front of resorts. If a traveler has purchased a $5 daily unlimited bus pass to ride up and down the strip, they should remember that it expires at 5 PM. Cabs to Downtown Vegas cost about $20, so a visitor may want to plan an evening there, including dinner at one of the inexpensive restaurants, shopping for souvenirs, and viewing the Freemont Street Experience free laser show. Some attractions have long waiting times, such as the Eiffel Tower or Venetian Gondolas, so visits to these popular sites should be planned accordingly.

A tired Las Vegas visitor can relax in some of the most interesting and comfortable places imaginable. Although most hotels do not provide seating in their lobbies, food courts and benches in the Miracle Mile and Forum Shops offer unlimited pleasure in people-watching. Free Circus Circus productions can be a pick-me-up for an exhausted walker, and chairs near the Wynn’s waterfall allow a rest in lovely surroundings. The Bellagio has luxurious couches and chairs scattered throughout its first floor, as well as bars and cafes which overlook their fountain’s dancing waters.

As long as daily activities are carefully planned, and based on a traveler’s interests, visitors can be ensured of a wonderful Las Vegas experience!

Are there any Las Vegas hotels that don’t require a deposit while staying?

Of course, I’m not talking about making a deposit for one night to hold the room. I’m talking about the other deposit they want when checking in. For example, Orleans demands a $100 a night deposit from the credit card. I’m looking for something off the strip and cheap.

Have Fun In Las Vegas, And Don’t Break The Bank On A Hotel

Las Vegas is variously described as the ‘sin city’, ‘the city that never sleeps’ or ‘the gamblers’ paradise’. It is however, most famous for it’s ‘quickie marriages’ which have bestowed marital status to many a Hollywood star – overnight. Whatever it is that drives you to take a trip to Las Vegas for the first time, a quick appraisal of the five points below could save you much of the time and agony over what to see and most importantly, the money you’d spend unnecessarily, if not forewarned. As they say, forewarned is forearmed, so here goes.

The early bird catches the worm – literally, in this case! It is advisable to plan early and book the tickets for your journey and make hotel reservations well in advance. Tickets can be booked three days to three weeks in advance and often many airlines offer special fares if tickets are booked early. Hotel reservations, too, are best made early on, to avail of early booking discounts and avoid last minute rush and exorbitant rates.

It pays to be well-shod. The most important item in your suitcase should be a pair of very good, comfortable, running shoes. While it may seem very glamorous to strut down the streets in those high heels, the concrete or stone surfaces you’d encounter in most places you visit are not exactly studio ramps and ill-fitting shoes could dampen your spirits and enthusiasm, faster than you could say ‘Las Vegas’. Exploring the hotels and their many attractions would be a pleasure in snug shoes.

Be at the scene of the action! Most of the attractions in Las Vegas are on and around the Las Vegas strip, so staying in a hotel in this area will mean easy access to all the happening sites and places. Some of the hotels on the strip are Bellagio, MGM Grande, Mirage, Alladin, Flamingo, New York New York, Treasure Island etc. The attractions here include the fountains of the Bellagio, the lion habitat at the MGM Grande, the white tigers at the Mirage and the pirate show at the Treasure Island. Thus, staying in a hotel on the Las Vegas strip would ensure that you don’t run up extra expenses on transport to see those places and you could very well visit the pirates, lions or tigers for breakfast, lunch or dinner as it were.

Live it up, through your stomach. If you’re going to Las Vegas, you’d do well to leave your Atkins diet safely behind at home. Las Vegas is a gastronome’s delight and offers some of the world’s best restaurants and buffets. The buffet at the Bellagio and the Spice-Market Buffet at the Aladdin are absolute must-tries. There is a wide choice in the buffets to suit the tastes of all the members of your family and the rates are quite reasonable so it suits all pockets. So while in Las Vegas – GORGE!

Have fun – cheap! You don’t have to go bankrupt to have fun in Las Vegas. It is a city that offers entertainment, both to those looking to blow up millions for thrills and also to those who’d rather enjoy the more sedate and affordable attractions. In fact, many of the shows you could enjoy with your family are free. Some of these shows are the Fountain display in front of the Bellagio, the pirate show at Treasure Island, Rain Storm at the Dessert Passage, circus acts at Circus Circus and human statues at the Venetian. Besides these, you could catch the lions in their natural surroundings at the MGM Grande or the white tigers at the Mirage. Different hotels also offer displays on selected themes, from time to time, which add to all the attractions.

Are there any Las Vegas clubs that don’t charge ridiculous prices for reserving a lounge?

I received a quote from the Venetian and they charge $450 per bottle. This bottle costs $30 at the market. I understand this is Vegas but at $450 that is beyond ridiculous.
