Don't mean to spam the thread but just as fyi. Well I just called the Excaliber hotel and cancelled my room as I am accepting I won't get to the iHeart concert. :( I was surprised that the gal at the desk told me they actually have a ticket bundle available at their, and a few other hotels but the tickets are still $420 per night plus room and more than I can swing. I forgot to ask just where the tickets were but that is a decent price if anyone here was interested....and flusher than I
Thank you for the info. My friend just called all hotels and got the info. ----------
Here is the complete info Re: BUNDLE TIX (Only certain room types come with the bundle tix)
Participated Hotels Hotel Rates (that have bundle tix avalable) (After taxes&fees)
MGM $912.80
Bellagio $1146
Aria $868
Plaza $644
NYNY $526.4
Monte Carlo $526.4
ALL IHR Concert tix are sold at $423, and available sections are 6, 8 (one tix left), 114, & 116.
($423 tix r face value tix.)
I just double checked with NYNY, the $526 is per night only for the 20-21st for the Spa Room. The person at the hotel that I talked to had previously tonight taken a booking for two nights with two tickets per night and the total with taxes was $2790. There are not a lot of tickets left and all the MGM hotels are pulling from the same ticket pool. No definite word if more tickets might be available but there was also no control over where the seats would be or even if together.
Weird, if I go a night earlier the rate for the same room (not the iheart special rate) is cheaper at $215. whether there are 1 or 2 persons in the room.
Thanks to everyone who has been posting vids, twits, gifs, photos etc. the last few days. Been hanging out in the bleachers delighting in Adam's pure bliss performing with Nile and Chic. I'm totally enjoying rewatching vids over and over and over... Nothing like Adam Lambert on stage and cookin'..and in studio as well!! Nile has taken some very introspective and intimate portraits of Adam.

I was thinking today about the comments that were made about the Avicii crowd. I thought back when I was of that age and remember being pissed when the performing artist verved from the recorded song. Songs that I had memorized every word and nuance. I can remember exclaiming excitedly that "they sounded just like their record". Well, it occurred to me that when you go and listen to someone "spin" you hear exactly what you are used to hearing but at a very loud volume -- louder then you could ever turn up your headphones or your speakers at home. So, this gives the audience the chance to listen to great beats, really loud plus in a party atmosphere while (perhaps) loaded. I don't think it has anything to do with not having an appreciation for a performing artist. It's just a different way to enjoy a concert. JMO.
I do have an issue with the rude and disrespectful ones but there's that in every crowd.
You make a good point. It's a similiar experience as going to a club, but with a much bigger audience. Great insight. The concert is just a great big ole raving party.
