Fourth night in Vegas and had enough of hip hop music.. Can anyone suggest a club or lounge with a dance floor that plays house or techno dance? Posted via RS Mobile |

Case in point, this skinny guy comes into the gym the other day, must have only weighed ~ 140lbs, loads on 2 plates on the bench rack, mutters to himself, for sparta, unracks the barbell and proceeds to drop it directly on his chest.

I flew with Westjet last month so I know exactly how much I paid after all the taxes and fees. On my last trip I paid $380 for three nights (Sun-Wed) with flight out of YVR and stayed at Planet Hollywood. Just priced out the same trip (Sun-Wed) at Planet Hollywood and it came out to $976 after taxes and fees. Checked to see if there was any special events or conference and didn't notice anything.

I'm heading down to LA in July and will catch the JT & JAYZ show there, then driving over to Vegas for the weekend and will catch the Bruno Mars show.
I got my JT tix, still waiting for BM tix to go on sale, right now I cant even find a for sale date, just scalper sites selling super early presale/insider tickets. Does any one have info on when official BM tix go on sale?

You open to sharing a couple rooms? Most of those ballin' ass suites are huge coin. Even split 9 ways, it's a lot. But if you're budget is pretty big, maybe you can swing it?
We still don't know where we're staying, lol. Although it will be central, on the strip (of course). Looking like we'll give ARIA a shot, but who knows. I'd still like to spring for the Venetian, as even the 'cheaper' rooms are quite big.

I don't know about sharing a place with 9 dudes... I'd rather have my own bed, maybe a couple rooms and one upgraded room for socializing.
I love the rooms at the Venetian and Palazzo, good size and great layouts for talking and drinking.

Yah having a suite is fun and we don't sleep much anyways, and we can just chill together and bullshit. Quote:

Heads up if anybody's headed down there soon, Bellagio has added AYCE Caviar to their $38 seafood buffet: $38 All-You-Can-Eat Caviar Exists in Las Vegas - Rich People Things - Eater National
Traditional caviar (granted it's american sturgeon), Ikura salmon roe, and tobiko flying fish roe.
