I LOVE, Las Vegas. I like the weather. I like the strip, and the lights and the fountains and the volcano. I love Trader Joe's and the fact the Costco sells, Maker's Mark about $20 a bottle cheaper than I can buy it Utah.
I love our time shares there. I love seeing Jimmy Buffett their almost every year. And I love seeing my friend, Lisa Landry the comedian there. But I'm not going to do that again.
Last night, we went to see Lisa with some friends and she kicked some ass. She was funny as could be. But the total experience was not that cool.
Dinner with our friends, Mike and Melissa was good at, Yolo in Planet Hollywood.
But Lisa and her two friends were supposed to meet us for dinner and for some reason, they couldn't find us (It's not THAT big a restaurant. I guess the staff didn't try too hard to put us together?). And it was so NOISY in the casino, in the comedy club, in the bar. We couldn't even sit and talk!
When I get to see Lisa, after the show, I want to know how, Ari, "The Devil Tot" is doing? How things are going in her career? Is she ever going to get to Salt Lake and lots of other things I'll not mention here cause it's, "family business", and I won't share her, "family business". I want her and Deb to talk about being moms!
So, I think I'll stick to seeing, Lisa in Denver, or Boise, or Tucson or where ever she might be. Hell, I know she plays, Deb's hometown of Sunnyvale, California. She was there last New Year's Eve at a place called, Rooster T. Feathers.
I was hoping the Utes would go to the Bowl Game in San Francisco. We could have seen them one night, and Lisa the next. It would have been perfect.
And in Las Vegas, the food and drink used to be cheap, cause they wanted you to stay and lose your money gambling. Now? Not so much.
When Phil and I had our, "Boy's Night Out" in December and saw, Lisa's show? They charged us $24 for a double Maker's Mark on the rocks!
Last night, they were offering an, "all you can drink" wrist band for $25. So I bought one. And I got them back. Trust me. I got them back before Lisa even took the stage. What the hell, I was taking a cab. They lost money on me. And the pretty, nice, bartender knew I was going to tip her well every time I came, so she filled that plastic cup UP when I came back to the bar. Even with the tips I passed out? Planet Hollywood? You lost your ass.
So, I think I've seen my last comedy show at, The LA Comedy Club in Planet Hollywood. It's a great place to see a show, it really is. But it's a lousy place to visit with your friends afterward.
