Las Vegas Show question
 
I've seen both "O" and "Mystere" , and now my husband wants to see one of the magic shows. We're staying at the Venetian. Has anyone seen the "Melinda Magic" show? I heard she used to be married to Lance Burton and has a good show in her own right, but I haven't talked to anyone who's seen the show. Thanks for the info.

I think David Copperfield is /will be in Vegas ... I think I would see him,Lance Burton has good reviews,never heard of Melinda.

I've also heard Lance Burton is good. Stay away from Sigfried and Roy. It's not worth the $$$.

The Blue Man Group at the Luxor is a different, great show.

Melinda's show is supposed to be absolutely abominable from what I've heard. Really low level stuff.<BR>

I researched a lot of reviews, saw only one mentioning Melinda, and they recommended to stay away, no explanation why. <BR>On the other side saw a lot of praise to Blue Men Show, read about it, but still cannot comprehend what exactly they are doing there. Could anyone provide better details - is it singing, dancing, magic, comedy?

When i first replied to your post i thought of Blue Man Group, but didn't mention it b/c you specifically asked for magic.<BR><BR>The reason you haven't been able to figure out exactly what Blue Man Group (BMG) is about is because it is indescribable. The bottom line is it's a show that will make you feel good by the time you leave, with a lot of music and laughter inbetween. "Performace Art" is the best category it fits into.<BR><BR>Here's their website: http://www.blueman.com/

Blue Man...I think that if you like a lot of percussion you will like them, if not you won't.
