Guess what's UP in Las Vegas?

Word out of Sin City sez that, while hotel/resort room prices may be down, the price of shows has been going up. (!)

Production show prices have risen between 5 and 9% in the last year. This does not include touring headliners, like if Elton John (first name that came to mind) were in for a three night concert at Mandalay Bay, prices would probably be in the $150 vicinity. Check show prices carefully if you want to see one, and remember that same-day tickets are available to MANY shows. Check for coupons in the Las Vegas tourist magazines and in the booklets in every hotel room. As noted in an earlier BLOG, you may be able to get tix for a hot show, but the seats may not be together. If ya REALLY REALLY want to see it, maybe you can get past the "not together" thing. We have lucked out on a couple of occasions with half-pricers side by side!
