Always ask for a line pass from VIP services (slot club counter) at your favourite casino if you plan on eating there. The pass allows you to walk to the front of the line at the buffet, and you will be immediately passed through. Anyone can get one if you possess a players card (be confident, be polite) they're free, and you feel like a king when you use it. Ignore the grumblings from the people in line, if they joined VT, then they would also have inside knowledge. BEST TIP EVER, TRUST ME.

The Las Vegas Talk forum!!
The best possible advice I can give to anyone going to Las Vegas is to visit my favorite and the busiest LV forum on the Internet.
I've been a member since way back when I was planning my first trip, and while its come a long way technologically, some of the same people are still there. In fact I attended a LVTalk meet at Luxor the last time I was in town, and met one woman I'd been in touch with for years.
There are literally hundred of questions asked and answered per week about every facet of Las Vegas by both locals and fanatics. Whenever I've been planning a trip to LV you could find me on the forum daily.
Oh, the address is www.lasvegastalk.com
Another excellent Internet site is www.lvol.com (Las Vegas On Line) It has reviews of all the hotels and shows. Leave a Comment

 this is what happens when u
dont get enough sleep by bryINpoland
the key is being well rested before u arrive in the city that never sleeps, cause u arent going to get much rest if u plan to see all u can see.
on your first day there, u have to do a run though, or what i like to call "the test drive" . (this is for people not familiar with vegas, i usually always have someone with me who has never been there so i have to show them how its done)... so your first day, or first night, u hit every casino possible. i ussually start from the south side at mandalay bay. weave your way north up the strip, basicly just doing a walk through of the casinos, getting a good idea of what they have, and where things are. u are going to have the urge to stop and gamble, or sit at the bar, but u must be strong, thats for day two. day one is all about "familiarization". if u do stop to gamble, 15 minutes tops. u have to stay focused!
ok, once u done the walk through, day two is when u go back to those hotels that u liked and u spend some quality time in them, gambling, eating, shoping, taking pictures... whatever floats your boat.
day three is basicly trying ti fit in everything else u forgot to see, or trying to hit big with your last buck.
if u come back from vegas well rested, well then u are doing it all wrong. have fun and party hard!
what happens in vegas, stays in vegas =P Leave a Comment

PIRATE SHOW at the TREASURE ISLAND
The "Sirens of TI" will made its world premiere on the Las Vegas Strip Saturday, October 25 2003. to an invited guest audience at Treasure Island in Las Vegas. The modern update of the long running pirate battle will feature a clash between a group of beautiful, tempting Sirens and a band of renegade pirates.
In the hands of Emmy-Award winning Director/Choreographer Kenny Ortega, the new show will feature a fresh new storyline and star the alluring and enticing "Sirens of TI" -- part muse, part temptress, part pirate. These stunning and talented women were found in a nationwide coast-to- coast search that began in Las Vegas and ended in Orlando this past summer. Award-winning record producer and songwriter Emilio Estefan scored the new production.

VOLCANO at the MIRAGE
Every fifteen minutes from 7:00 p.m. to midnight, the earth shakes and flames shoot into the night sky spewing smoke and fire 100 feet above the waters below, transforming a tranquil waterfall into spectacular streams of molten lava.
The volcano at The Mirage has been a Las Vegas signature attraction since the resort opened in 1989, mesmerizing spectators with it thunderous, fiery display. The volcano, situated on three water-covered acres, is 54 feet high and circulates 119,000 gallons of water per minute. Leave a Comment

~ Showrooms- A tip of $5-$20 (depending on venue and show) should fetch good seating.

~ Valet- $2 is standard
~ Maids- $2 per day Leave a Comment

Don’t know if anyone ever looks at the material that most hotels provide, especially those glamour magazine. Well, those magazines are usually a great source of information of some really neat night spots, sightseeing spots, or really cool restaurants. I like to sit while having my morning cup of coffee and browse thru the literature. Once something caught my eye, we went down to the business center to get more info or find the location. We ended up finding about some really neat things to see and do in Vegas. So, take the time and browse the literature in the hotel rooms.

 Our Brazilian friend on a
weekday night in Vegas by jumpingnorman
It may be a little warm on that Tuesday night in June but it will still be loaded with fun in the city that never sleeps. Being a weekday, there are better hotel deals, still lots of people but much less than during the weekend!
However, major concerts are usually on Saturdays as you can see on the list of Vegas concerts at http://www.wedoitallvegas.com/Las-Vegas-Concerts.asp
And yes, there's even a website that is solely dedicated on what to do in Vegas on Tuesday nights! Visit http://www.bachelorvegas.com/options/tuesdays.html
But basically, every day of the week in Vegas has something to offer --- there is reason why it has become one of the top tourist destinations!
Seeing Vegas for the first time at night time when I was I teenager...amazing lights in the middle of the desert Leave a Comment
