Which of these 2 Vegas shows would you see?

My husband and I will be seeing Bette Midler in Vegas in mid-July. We have already seen several of the main shows in town and are currently seeking a review on either the Danny Gans show or Stomp Out Loud. We would appreciate a thumbs-up or down on each. Many thanks -

Here's an idea. Those shows are both so good, why don't you go to BOTH and just send your Bette Midler tickets to me? I'd make the sacrifice and take them off your hands so you can see both of the other shows.


LOL (sorry, I haven't seen either of the other shows there, but many think Stomp Out Loud is just a lot of noise. I have seen Stomp and enjoyed it)

I have heard great reviews about Danny Gans. Had tickets to see him a few years ago and he cancelled the show at the last minute so we went to see La Reve instead.

You'll love Bette Midler's show!

Based on what we've heard/read, we really wanted to see Danny Gans, but he was on vacation during our visit. Though, some say he's not worth the $100 ticket price.

We loved Mystere and highly recommend.

Another vote for Mystere, but I've seen it three times (and all the other Cirque shows in Vegas as well) but the Midler show gets rave reviews so enjoy that for certain.

We saw Danny Gans 3 times in Vegas...2 was enough but he is amazing. Not as young an audience..

Bette Midler is Bette Midler..fantastic that you are seeing her!!!

He is well worth the money, it is a terrific show! I highly recommend.

Note re: Bette Midler - they did not have those huge screens on either side of the stage (which they've had at previous concerts of hers we've attended).

So, if you have concert binoculars, bring them along.

Hi Pam,
What night are you seeing Bette, We have tickets for July 16. It would be too funny if we were there on the same night!

I think it depends on what you enjoy. They are two different kinds of show but both good. Having seen both, I personally would go back to see Danny Gans again.
