Las Vegas shows
 

Hello,<BR><BR>I am taking my parents for their first trip to Las Vegas next week. I have researched the LV Advisor, Frommers, Las Vegas.com, but I thought I would check here. I know that supposedly the best show is 'O', but I am pretty sure that production is on hiatus while we are there and we don't think we could spend $100 each on a show. <BR>I won't go to Blue Man Group because it's a permanent show in Boston.<BR>Has anyone seen the Mac King show? Cheaper, afternoon show that gets good reviews.<BR>Any shows that we shouldn't miss? Anyone know about coupons for shows? I shouldn't admit that we are cheap, but we are, and would like to spend our money eating well, rather than on a really pricey show. Any ideas??? Thanks in advance.<BR><BR>

None of my business of course, but what sense does it make to come to Vegas all the way from Boston to EAT WELL instead of seeing the shows? I would probably bring crackers from home to eat while in Vegas thus saving every penny to see the 'O' which IS the best.

I know O is the best. I know, I know, everyone says it, yes eat crackers and sleep on the street to see O. The problem is O has special blackout dates while we are there. Is Mystere a viable alternative?

Definitely. The best choice would be to buy tickets via the Treasure Island telephone ticketmaster. This way they can assign seats with better view. Make sure to ask...<BR>

If O and Mystere are "dark" while you are there, i'd bet (pun intended) that you're parents would REALLY enjoy Danny Gans.
