BMG and suchlike aside, it has always struck me as one of the most spiritually depressing places in the U.S. I like my depravity, but just not that sordid. I found out - after making reservations - that we were staying at the most popular hotel in Las Vegas for suicides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starship Krupa Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Wow, so sorry to hear this. I used to love those cheap breakfast buffets. And I, too clicked on this thinking it would have something to do with MAGIX taking the program over from Sony, and I was preparing to tell you that you just need to configure MAGIX Connect so that it stops showing you ads for their products that you already own. And, BTW, I just upgraded from 10 to 15 via the Humble Bundle and they really went to town on that code. Vegas, the tourist trap, might have jumped the shark, but Vegas, the video editing software, has acquired that feel of speed and stabillity that Cakewalk is sporting these days. And you don't even need to take "grandpa's special vitamins" to enjoy it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starise Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Never had a desire to go. Never went. It's a place out in the desert. They have to pipe water in. Few trees. The bling? That's ok I'll pass. Gambling? I don't. I can tell Dave is a little less than enthusiastic too. lol. But a promise is a promise I guess. We seen the Blue Man Group on tour out here. It's a pretty good show. On pools- I have an in ground pool. It's probably the only pool I would go shirtless. I even keep my shirt on when the grandkids come over. Wouldn't want to scare them.

Gswitz Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 I once went to telluride bg festival one weekend and the dead in Vegas the next. Telluride was heaven. Vegas was like the other place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigb Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 I've only gone there once that wasn't in conjunction with a tournament of some kind that I was in, but I still remember looking out of my hotel window at the city and couldn't help but think how dead it appeared even with all those lights flashing away...

haydn12 Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Last time we went to Vegas we stayed at our timeshare which is just a block off the strip. Only went to the strip a couple times to watch shows. The rest of the time we to other attractions like a couple small zoos, Pinball Hall of Fame, Red Rock Canyon park, the dam plus I hiked a couple times. Great hiking trails in the area. We ate at the buffet a few times at the Palace Station which is still reasonable in price compared to the ones on the strip. Maybe not as fancy but the kids like it.
