    It doesn't interest me to go to Cirque so much as the other half wants to, of all of them I think I would be able to relate to the beatles one more... Just need to find two tickets for about $160 with some sort of view and I'll be a happy man :)

    I recently posted this link which should get you what you want. Also see offer for Ka posted on page 191. I haven't compared the offers to see which is cheapest.

    Re Cirque..I didn't think it was for for me and I resisted for 10 visits.



    Finally went to see KA (for $55, there is a link somewhere on here recently for cheap tickets EDIT didn't see post above), it was great the stage and set is awesome and there is a story, most cirque shows don't have a story

    Then went to see LOVE the next year, enjoyed the beatles music but didn't enjoy the show as much as KA as it is more circusey without a story.

    Thats it for me I have had my fill of Cirque

    Sorry I should have said, I had seen those links, but we're not going till the last week in October so they're currently no good for me, think I might just wait it out to see what deals come up in the next month or so...

    Thanks :)

    EDIT just noticed Ka is till dec, will have to see if we can shuffle our dates etc. :)

    Both KA and LOVE are such huge productions that the best seats are towards the back, not the front IMHO. KA especially.

    Agree - the first time we saw Love we had front row seats and were so excited...mistake - much better view from further back...have seen it 3 or 4 times (still arguing about it) and last time from the last row and would pick that over front row anytime.

    One thing I personally think about Cirque newbies...if someone isn't sure if they will like Cirque shows...sometimes I think going to one that has music they will recongnize/like is a good idea...it's kind of impossible to say who will like which Cirque shows as it's such a personal preference thing. Photome preferred Ka to Love, we preferred Love to Ka but we did appreciate the stage in Ka and how stunning that is in and of itself.

    We are finally going to see O again after many years and can finally decide if it is our favourite or if Love has pipped top spot.
    Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?

    Was on here a lot last year before a Vegas trip & picked up the code for free wifi at the Cosmopolitan (along with many other tips).

    I have friends going in a couple of weeks & they have asked me to find out if a code is still available.

    Can anyone help with the current password?

    Thanks

    Thanks, do you have any recommendations for seats??
    We have seen it in 3 different showrooms, and don't know where it is just now. So no, sorry I can't.

    Both the link above and the one for Ka on page 190 (not 191 as previously thought) are through to Decrmber.
  • random Q to throw out there... has anyone been to Washington DC, and have any recommendations where to stay? happy to take PMs so not to clog up the lovely shiny Vegas chat! :D

    Not long for Lesley now! Is it only 6 days?! :D

    It is indeed. 6 more sleeps and 4 more work days. :)

    I think I'm going to book Legends just now. Need to see about Terry Fator as well.
