Free Show on the Strip


After the race, I took a little nap and was woken by a call from Emily, a co-worker. She gets these free tickets to shows around Las Vegas and called to see if I wanted to go. It was tickets to Danny Gans and of course I wanted to go. I've heard such good things about his show, how delightful and clean and funny it is. So I got ready and we went down to the new Encore casino that opened recently. We both agreed that the decorations are quite hideous, sorry Mr. Wynn; I guess not if you like seeing red every where. The Danny Gans show doesn't officially open until next weekend, and he was offering this show to locals for free. He is a great impressionist, singer and comedian. He has a live band that plays with him and he is quite good. Some of the impressions were right on. It looked like he and his band were having a good time, which made us have a better time. Emily and I got front row seats!! All in all, it was a great ending to a great day.

That sounds like so much fun! I've never heard of him before. I thought you were going to say you went and saw Donny Osmond and I was going to be so jealous. One time I dreamt we were making out while he was dressed in his Technicolor dream coat and I've been smitten ever since. If you do go and see him I don't want to know about it.

I've always wanted to see Danny Gans. That is very cool that you got tickets. Very cool.

Wow, I've missed so much! Great job on the running! I didn't know you should only have specific shoes for running. Good to know. I started running in December but didn't know I should do all of that. We're running to help these 2conjoined twins on Valentine's Day. Maybe I should have kept a journal, oops! Great job on your weight loss too, you rock! And I think running in Vegas is much easier than Houston too, it's not humid. You can even do it in the summer around 7 or so b/c it's still light out and not as hot. Looks like lots of fun at the beach too and what a fun show on the strip!
