LV shows- have you seen these?
 
Hi. Am considering the following:

Spirit of the dance
Blue man group
The second city
Improv

Did you like the above shows? Has anyone seen any murder mystery shows? Thanks.

Blue man group I saw -- get this -- about 8 years ago in NYC. it was fun at first but then a little bit obnoxious.

My wife bought two tix to spirit of the dance and we left after about 40 minutes. it was ridiculous and phony (they're "tapping" on a soft stage) and so incomprehensible.

Second city is absolutely the best of the 3 and the best bargain to boot. it is fun and if you're there on a night when the energy's right, it's so magical.

We saw Blue Man Group several years ago. It was fun, but it will not be the first on my list for my next Vegas trip. Mystere, on the other hand, is first on my list, since there was so much going on that I don't think anyone could see it all in one visit.

I was bored with Blue Man Group after about 40 minutes. And for the price, it was a poor value IMO.
We went because so many people rave about it here. One of those personal style things, I guess.

Yet another "shot" at Blue Man Group. My wife and I were really disappointed with the show. For some reason, I was expecting a concert. (I kind of like this type of music). Instead, it was a show with stupid gags and skits - not funny at all. The theater was only half full.

For $80.00 per ticket, go see Mystere.

Loved 2nd City - saw it last summer. A real hoot and only somewhat naughty. Also loved Rita Rudner - she's sweet and funny at same time. Amazing Jonathan was a worry - he didn't do any of his gross-out stuff so I was relieved. My all-time favorite was "Chavel" but it's not there anymore (Cirque d' Sol on horseback).
