WTF happened to Las Vegas

[Kwon]

So Vegas stopped being the Party and Nightclub Town of the US?


What city is it now?

Miami?

Miami is/was always a shit hole,  ghetto people all around

Have you been in the last few years?

There are issues there but it’s changed a bit in the last 15-20 years I’ve been going there.

Washington used to be cracky and it isn’t any more for example.

Just drove through Miami and Miami Beach a few days ago after not being there recently. The skyline and architecture is super-impressive. Gives both New York and Chicago a run for money, there are no other impressive downtown skylines in the US other than those three. Miami feels happening.

GOD NO!!!

Miami is a cesspool.  That bullet that killed Versace killed the entire city.

Nothing but ghetto wannabe rappers, Cubano Whites, and aging Jews that kept holding on for some unknown reason. 

I live 30 mins from Miami and I only go twice a year. To Art Basil and the home show.

I'm more interested in the bikini babes on Miami Beach.

Pretty much every place that was amazing 20-25 years ago, has turned into a shithole. Starting with Europe.

I tell people Nashville, way better value than Vegas, went Miami last year I agree with others has history but that's about it. Just another city.

Vegas is always changing... that's a good thing.  if a place is not changing then it is dead.  Bah!

If it changes too much it will also be dead.

Saw Rod Stewart in concert last night.  He was OLD Las Vegas.  Wearing pearl necklaces and pants with stars sewn on the ass.

You're joking, right?

No, I am not.  Old as dirt.  But had good energy.  Or great coke.  If you like Rod Stewart (I don't either way) you would have liked the concert.

Absinthe is awesome. I’ve seen it twice. I thought it was staged with plants in the audience, until the second time I went and I got called out.


How was Rod Stewart’s voice? I don’t mind his music and actually like The Faces so I’d go see him next time my wife and I go if he’s still putting on a good show.

His voice has actually held up remarkable.  I was really surprised.

Yeah, Absinthe was really really good.
