Rock Show!


I was sitting at work today, when I received a call from Dan, who is a guy from my new YouTube group. He said that he had free tickets to a show at the Vegas Hilton called "Rock Show". Since he said the magic word... "FREE", I was in. It turns out that the rock show is another celebrity impersonator show, like many that exist in Vegas. In this particular show, rock bands are impersonated. Led Zeppelin, Queen, Elton John, The Who, The Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, Ozzy, and Van Halen. The impressive thing is that all the bands are impersonated by the same six guys, who actually play and sing with no backing tracks. I am extremely tough to impress when it comes to rock bands, and live theatre shows for that matter, but Rock Show was great! Even the guy who played Eddie Van Halen was amazing. It was the best I'd ever seen anyone play "Eruption" outside of Eddie himself. The show is not permanently based at the Vegas Hilton, though it does come through on a semi-regular basis. If you get the chance, go see the show.

After the show, Dan, Mandy (another person from my YouTube group), and I decided since we were already at the Hilton, that we'd go get dinner at Quark's Bar inside the Star Trek Experience. I've been to Quarks twice before, but it turns out there is a whole extra room that I had never seen. I ate "The Holy Rings Of Betazed"---which were the best onion rings I've ever tasted! It was a very cool Friday night, considering that I thought I was going to spend the evening alone at home playing PS2. Our first video shoot is on Sunday at New York, New York hotel-casino, so hopefully things will go well.
