Yes, although I don't see how they're the same difference. The showroom layout makes it look as though (as Julie says) the venue is smaller, and it isn't the same at all .. a quite different layout, with seats in every section being listed on TM, so to say "High rollers front and centre" is a bit of a stretch imo, and the one I posted gives a more accurate picture of where the seats are.

High rollers getting the best seats are a standard practice in all casinos. Doesn't matter if it's LV or Indian casinos. Yes, some tickets are sold to the general public but the casinos reward their regular players generously.

Pity...I really wanted to see him but those prices combined with a $400+ flight and a hotel stay...I just can't afford it.
Its a neat venture...I'm certain that everyone that gets to go will have an amazing time. I just wish we'd had the same "Last at Bat" tour option over here...sigh |

Hope whoever from the UK that can make it has a wonderful time; there's no way I could justify flying to the US cost wise for at least another year sadly but I cannot wait to hear the setlist!

Someone posted on fb a link to Travel Zoo Pre sale on sale right now. Excluding TZoo it looks like TM's prices are correct.

"Row" seems a big misleading actually as the VIP are a choice of table, banquette or row seating .. and even when you book a table seat you get a row number

![]() Meat has been booked to play Vegas by the casino. That pretty much makes him an employee of the casino and hotel. The casino pays the bills and the wages, so the casino can do pretty much what they like, and it wouldn't be good business to offer their own VIP package but allow their employee to offer an alternative (and probably better) package at a cheaper price. ![]() The casino is only interested in the best interests of the casino, and with looking after the people who are going to spend a lot of money with them. I think a lot of the tickets will be comped to high rollers, but even those who don't get comped, the prices will ensure that the best tickets will be available for the people who gone to Vegas with a suitcase full of money. That might suck from a fans point of view, but Meat isn't in Vegas to perform for his fans, he's there as an attraction. Quote:
That being the case, I can't see the set list veering too far away from the classics. Most of the high rollers (aka the very rich general public) will only likely have a working knowledge of the greatest hits rather than the more obscure album tracks and B sides. I think we need to start a lottery pool first ![]() Quote:
