OK, I know, it's gimmicky but I really, really want to experience this thing

The Sphere, Las Vegas

High on a threshold yearning to sing
Down with the dancers having one last fling

For me, it would be sensory overload.

I find the Sphere having an attraction.

It's LV that I find uninviting.






I am that Masked Man.

All you can do, is all you can do.

There’s trouble — it's time to play the sound of my people.

Your boos mean nothing to me, I've seen what you cheer for.

Insisting on your rights without acknowledging your responsibilities isn’t freedom, it’s adolescence.

I've been to the edge of the map, and there be monsters.

We are a government of laws, not men.

Everybody counts or nobody counts.

When a good man is hurt,
all who would be called good
must suffer with him.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

You and I have memories longer than the road that stretches out ahead.

There is no safety for honest men except
by believing all possible evil of evil men.

We don’t do focus groups. They just ensure that you don’t offend anyone, and produce bland inoffensive products. —Sir Jonathan Ive

An armed society is a polite society.
And hope is a lousy defense.

You make me pull, I'll put you down.

I *love* SIGs. It's Glocks I hate.

Just reading your title I guessed the Sphere was the subject. We are passing through Vegas next week on the way to a wedding in the SoCal desert.

Not knowing about the Sphere, we booked a show with Yachtley Crew. They played a friends wedding 6 years ago and now they are a little bit bigger of a draw now. It's the first Vegas show I have seen in 40 years, although we have seen a couple shows in Reno.

Markintosh, I would go see that (although I sort of hate that Toto tune).

Your first day in Las Vegas, you’re in awe; the second day you’re bored; the third day you’re depressed.

That was my opinion. Surrounding area is lovely.

There is a Star Trek (TNG) episode where Picard is trapped in a casino for some reason. I feel the same way when Las Vegas. Even outside it's just such a strange feeling, like nothing is real and I'm constantly drowning in stimuli. I can only stand a couple days of that. Shows do help to break it up, but those are only a different kind of false reality.
