What 3 shows in Las Vegas are the best to see?

We are going to Las Vegas the end of September and want to go to 3 shows, comedians or whatever. We have seen Mystere, the Amazing Jonathan and a dance show at the Flamingo last time we were in Las Vegas. We are thinking about "O" , Blue Man Group and some comedian. Any recommendations if these are good choices or any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

We saw Blue Man Group in Boston and loved it. Very clever and fast moving.

I enjoyed "O" and "Mystere" (also by Cirque de Soleil). For a less pricey enjoyable venue, go to see Rita Rudner (if she is still there). She is very funny and quite clean.

I want to go see "Blue Man Group" - I hear nothing but great things about them.

Enjoy!

Penn and Teller put on a very entertaining show at the Rio. They even meet the audience in the lobby after the show. So bring a camera if you go see the show.

Blue Man Group is the best show in Vegas- seen Mystere, EF-X, Siegfried and Roy, and numerous transients. Keep in mind that BMG is a trifle off the wall- could be described as interactive performance art. One friend of mine (not close) hated it- you have to be willing to go with the flow. If you found the original Saturday Night Live skits entertaining, you'll love it.

If you like Cirque du Soliel, O was wonderful.
