Girls Night Out with the Eagles

Eagles Pictures, Images and Photos


Another great night out at the Hilton, I tell you if you live in Las Vegas you are really missing some good entertainment if you are not taking in these Wednesday night concerts at the Hilton. This week it was the Eagles, they were really good, I think this was my favorite one so far. They sang song after song of all the Eagles greatest hits. The June line up sounds really good ....stay tuned.

OMG ....Cher show ....are you kidding?

Photobucket

Last night was Wednesday concert night out with the girls ... Tayna, Erin, Jackie and I, we had tickets to go see the U2 tribute band at the Hilton but yesterday morning I was able to snag 4 tickets to see CHER!! I called the girls to see if they wanted to ditch the U2 concert to see Cher instead....no brainer.

This was by far the best show I have ever seen on the strip, 90 minutes of pure entertainment. Cher's entrance was only as Cher can do, she floated on stage in a cage above the crowd and was dressed as only Cher can dress. She had 17 costume changes during the show and every one of them were as great as she was. Her voice is flawless and her body is better at 64 than it was when she was 20.Her show took you back in time in with the music, the outfits and her days with Sonny. You have got to go see this show.

Okay so I don't do night driving very well but when push comes to shove and I have to I will but really it's pretty dangerous when I am on the road after the sun goes down. I had to pick the tickets up at 4:30 so I did drive myself and I was to meet the other girls there, leave my car in valet overnight and drive home with Jackie and then my husband would take me in the morning to get my car.
He dropped me off this morning to a very empty valet since it was only 6:45 am. I got out of his car and walked up to the valet and said "I left my car here last night because I don't drive at night and my husband dropped me off to pick it up", they both looked at me like ....sure lady and then said ..."hey you don't have to explain yourself to us" It must have looked like I got lucky and had a one night stand. I guess they must see it all

FUN FUN FUN NIGHT

Saturday Night on the Las Vegas Strip

Another great night out last night at the Monte Carlo Hotel with good friends. Lance Burton has been a headliner here in Las Vegas for 14 years. Lance Burton has been voted "Best Magician" for 11 years in a row from the Las Vegas Review-Journal and has performed 15,000 shows over the past 30 years. Lance is ending his show on September 4th this year. According to what I have read, the Monte Caro has told him to cut his show’s budget. In turn, he has told the company he would rather leave, and the company plans to turn him loose.
The show is spectacular and the stage setting is first class. Don't miss out, go see him while you still have a chance.

What a great show, they sounded great and it was really entertaining. If you haven't seen it yet ... GO, you will have a great night. Thanks Joe and Pat for enjoying the show with us. Tonight the four of us are going to see Lance Burton ....stay tuned.

Happy Mother's Day Mom



Today is Mother's Day, a day that is sometimes sad for me. I lost my mother to cancer several years ago
and Mother's Day is a big reminder for me of how much I have lost, no card to send, no phone call to make,
no mother to visit. My mother was a beautiful, intelligent, creative person. This picture was taken of my parents long before they
move to Nevada ... I guess Las Vegas was always in her blood, check out the card she is holding.
Happy Mother's Day mom ... I love you.

Concert Night - Led Zeppelin Tribute

Photobucket
Every Wed. night at the Hilton in Las Vegas are classic rock concert nights ...girls night out. last night Tanya, Jackie,Erin and I had a fun night reliving the great Led Zeppelin. The music and show was awesome, they sounded great and the crowd was really into it. But I have one question?? Was or is Robert Plant gay? the guy who portrait him on stage was definatly gay ... I'M JUST SAY"IN....he just couldn't keep his hands off himself and I also think that he thought that the crowd were all deaf because I swear he was doing sign languge for us during the entire show so we would understand the lyrics, that was a bit distracting but the show was really good and if they come back to do another show I would say go for it.

No concert review for next week, the show is Wild Child (The Doors) I saw that a few months ago and reviewed it and will skip next week and have to settle watching American Idol on t.v.
