Cirque Du Soleil - Love (Beatles) is pretty good if you're any sort of a Beatles fan!

And Aria has tonnes of specials right now. Check out http://www.mycheapvegas.com, they have like 3 different Aria Promos going on right now. Hope that helps, cheers!

helps to stay at a decent hotel. if you're staying at like imperial palace or some other dump, i'd be wary.

Tips are exactly that, leave them as much as you want or don't tip at all. Probably be a better idea to tip each day if you decide to tip.

For anyone looking to go to Vegas, i found some damn good specials at http://www.mycheapvegas.com. They have some 25% off harrahs properties. Booked the Flamingo for 30 bucks a night during christmas time.
I'm also going from the oct 20th-28th and decided to rent the rio suites for a few nights! Never been in a 1600 sq foot room, and it was under 200 a night so what the hell, lol. Anyone else goinng during that time?
