View Full Version : LDW TR: The Grande royale partying w/ JC Peeps
royale 09-09-2009, 12:15 PM I noticed that people on this forum love juicy details, so I will try not to leave anything out and be as descriptive as possible. I will try to throw in some pointers as far as clubs, restaurants, bars etc. My plan is to do a Yelp review on a site, then add in the TR details as I go.
I projecting there to be 6 segments covering 3 days both day and night parties. Hope you guys like it :D
PS. I will toss in an appropriate picture and video here and there as well.
royale 09-09-2009, 12:29 PM Woke up at about 5:30 am in the morning, and I felt f'd up because all that Vegas adrenaline had me only sleeping a few hours. But fortunately it was enough for me to get ready and toss everything in the car. GF was about to make a big breakfast, and I was like F' it.. just pour some cereal. Dont even bother washing the dishes. LETS GO LETS GO LETS GO. Its Vegas baby!
The drive with 6:30am LA traffic was surprisingly smooth. The GPS projected that we were going to arrive at the Venetian at 10:15am and we were very close to that mark. We all held back on drinking the water. Also we planned on driving in our bathing suits because as soon as we hit the grounds of Vegas we needed to be prepared to party at Tao Beach.
Just as projected, we arrived at Venetian at about 10:20 or so. We quickly load up everything we need in the pool bag and make our way to the Tao Beach check in inside the Venetian. The guy was a little bit confused when we mentioned we mentioned we are on Marklen Anthony (JC contact)'s guestlist. He asked us to go to some Kiosk to get stamped. We went to the Kiosk and they told us that we need to talk to him to get stamped. At that point gf was running out of patience and the guy didn't want to deal with it. He just stamped us and let us get in the elevator to get into the pools.
This is my second time at Tao Beach, and this time around I would say this place has redeemed itself. The first trip I was just so shocked that this place was no Rehab or Wet Republic, that I didn't know how to react but leave and use the Venetian pools. This time we were more calculated and patient. We checked in early at about 10:30.
Before I got in the water, I thought it would be a good idea to give Dnix a call. I ring him up and he didn't answer figuring he was probably asleep. I left him a message to get back to me.
I also put in a good effort of looking for MRJBOND. He was suppose to be the other indian guy there. I did see one indian couple, but I know MRJBOND was with a bunch of indian guys so it wasn't him. Damn I wish I got his # so I could've ringed him up too.
We found a nice empty spot in back of Tao Beach where the smaller second pool is. It was nice because the jets gave you a back massage if you sat down and leaned up against it. There was complete douche bag control in that area because the security guard was watching everyone and drinks were not permitted. He was chasing pretty much everyone down. Its tough if you are there to let loose with some horse play, but great if you there just to relax and unwind.
The music definitely is a step below places like Wet or Rehab. Simply because that DJ Eric Deluxe was just there to fill in before LMFAO. The drinks ran about $12 / cup and bottle service would've started at $1000 per grey goose and the tables would've required an additional service charge. Thats why it wasn't surprising that no one occupied them throughout the entire event. The least they can do is open them up and let the public use it. We met some cool peeps that were ready to go in on a bottle with us, but for a $1000 at out of all places like Tao Beach, it simply was not worth it.
LMFAO came on stage at about 2:30 and did their signature hit SHOTS. It was an awesome song. At some point they asked the girls to whip the boobs out, but they were quickly discouraged by the Venetian management. I was a bit discouraged, but the gf was glad and thought it was the right thing to do. LMFAO were a crazy bunch of guys and did the rest of their songs as they were chugging on a bottle of grey goose. Atleast we know they were serious when they sang about the shots.
I went back to my pool bag and checked my phone. Looks like Dnix called me and did leave a message. Sounds like one of those drunk dialing experiences where he called and just left the phone running. It sounded like he was having some conversation with a group of people and music was blasting in the background. (later on I found out that I missed my Wet Republic invitation!)
We left Tao Beach at around 3:30 and thought we had enough. As we were walking through the Venetian pools, we saw all these pissed off parents with angry looks as LMFAO were singing "I am not a whore". I thought this was hilarious. They should've moved their asses if they didn't want to deal with the party people.
Either ways I had a great time at Tao Beach unlike my previous visit. Best way to describe my experience was organized chaos. It was getting close to 4 and we still haven't checked in yet. We are were hungry dirty.. and more hungry. (... to be continued..)
its alright.............you found out what you missed out on the next day. :D

This place was perfect after a day of debauchery at Tao Beach. The only downside is finding this place. The Venetian is designed all funky, so the buildings aren't in your standard square blocks. They could be around nooks and crannies. I m glad we finally found Entoeca, because its exactly the carbs we needed to fill up on.
I came across this place via http://Restaurants.com's 80% coupon discount and thought it would be a decent spot to check out. We got here around 4pm, which was the perfect time to find a seat being that its neither lunch or dinner. The server was very friendly, and she even took her sweet time explaining the menu items. It was written in Italian and hard to figure out. So we ended up ordering a Monte Cresto, a full sized Margaretta Pizza, Risotto and a dish of spaghetti. Believe it or not, we did not have any left overs.
Enoteca isn't your typical Italian restaurant, it features food from the Mediterranean. So from what I can tell it did have a unique taste in all their ingredients. I love the atmosphere of sitting out in the courtyard areas of the Venetian. It made me feel like we were actually on the streets of Italy... but not really. The food here was good, and I definitely recommend it. For Vegas, its definitely considered a good price even if you do not have a coupon. I recommend the Enoteca.

View of the Signatures walking out of Wet Republic
I now officially have a new favorite hotel. Can you guys believe that this place actually put the Wynn to shame? I think so. I simply wish I can buy one of these high rise condos. I m very excited to compare them to the Vdara's when they are raised.
Driving to this hotel was a breeze. There is no need to find parking, because it is strictly valet only. At first I was a bit skeptical about tipping someone to get my car out everytime, but then I thought it was completely worth it and I wasn't tipping these guys enough. Valets are super friendly, fast and not to mention hand you a bottle of water while you wait. I saved so much $ just in buying water by taking my car out.
Checking into the hotel wasn't too bad either. Since there are 3 towers, no casino crowd, they don't need those super long conveyor belt lines up in here. You just walk to up which ever counter thats open. I didn't want to try any sandwiching tricks, I just want to get the full natural experience. Just put me in a room. And boy did I get a room! Either ways when I first walked into this room. There was no word to really describe it. I just made a video about it:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J8-DONZ3m44
The best part of this room was simply it puts you a certain mood. Infact the entire hotel does with its theme music playing in each tower. The amenities I found myself using the most in the room was probably the kitchen. We always had left overs when we dined out, so found ourselves using the microwave and fridge a lot. They even refill your coffee and water supply each morning.
We stayed in Tower 3 which was farthest away from Wet Republic, but has the most modern theme. Tower 2 features Deli. We spent $24 of resort credits in a gourmet breakfast. Trust me, those eggs were worth it. Tower 1 features a Starbucks. The towers all connected all the way to MGM and the outside walkways lead you to the MGM pool and Wet Republic.
This was the best stay in Vegas..... ever. Did I mention there are jetted tubs that help you recover from a hard day of partying? I pretty much took advantage of everything this place to offer. I m looking forward to coming back and staying here again and again. It is worth every penny to spoil yourself at the Signatures.
Heres another look from my cell phone's panoramic mode (sorry I eff'd the pic up a bit)

Enoteca is awesome. I eat there when im out there for work because its close to the convention center and i dont have to go outside because the Venetian is linked on. Very good food.
I didnt know the Signatures were that nice. Was it all 1 room or did it have a separate bed room? What was the pricing like on it?
nyc2vegas 09-10-2009, 07:58 AM royale you need to forward that to mgm and theyll hire you as a spokeperson I really felt like I was reading or listening to a late night infomercial trying to sell these places.....which by the way you can get for a steal nowadays;.....good job!
royale 09-10-2009, 08:02 AM Wow those are awesome rooms. Which company did you book them through?? cause i know there are some really bad rooms if you book with the wrong ppl
Yea I heard really bad things about VRBO (private owners), but I booked straight through MGM and I got room service and the whole nine yards.

I didnt know the Signatures were that nice. Was it all 1 room or did it have a separate bed room? What was the pricing like on it?
Theres 3 different setups for rooms, one is JR bedroom suite which is the one I got, and then there are 1 bed room and 2 bed room suites which have seperate rooms and living area. All of them come with the kitchen and bathroom you see in the vid. At the top of the towers are the penthouse floors.

hahaha thanks! I got that room for $105+20 resort fee. I booked about 3-4 months in advance since I m on the Signatures mailing list.

im saying to buy, you can get a jr suite for 100-125K or a 1br for around 150K, im waiting for it to hit rock bottom and im seriously considering diving in for one

Yea i was thinking about the samething. I m kind of waiting for the Vdara to finish, that way the Signatures will have some competition and the prices will go down even further.
Keebler 09-10-2009, 08:22 AM You can buy a 1 bedroom in there for 150K???
I may seriously consider it.
nyc2vegas 09-10-2009, 08:31 AM You can buy a 1 bedroom in there for 150K???
I may seriously consider it.
yeah but the only issue is has to be all cash....condo financing is very hard to get right now in general and in Vegas is off limits because these places are filled with condo whereby people paid between 450K-750K 3 years ago and now theyre selling for 150K today and tomorrow for 140k etc and banks just arent willing to take on the liability.

Yup I completely agree with that statement. Properties are going crazy for all cash offers right now out here as well. Its tough to even be considered with a 20% down right now.
P-tr-ck 09-10-2009, 08:51 AM Is buying a condo there really lucrative.
With the fees they charge each month I think if you're lucky you can break even but most of the time you won't be able to do that.
And for the price of the Unit and the monthly fees you can stay many nights at any hotel you want in Vegas.
Or am I missing something here??
Enough talk about condos, let's see some more of the TR
royale 09-10-2009, 09:48 AM After stepping foot into this plush Signatures room, there was no other option but to just crash onto the soft comfy bed and just sleep a couple of hours. Except couple of hours turned into more like 5 hours. We woke up at about 10pm, and I was like OOPS, the line at Tabu is going to be crazy. I called concierge and basically they gave me the telephone middle finger. They said I will need bottle service to even have a shot at entering Tabu, which could be BS.
But we decided to try our luck anyway. We proceeded to get ready. I took about 30 mins, and GF took about 1 hour and 30 minutes. At 12, we were both ready to step out of the door and I got a call back from Dnix
D: "Hey man, what are you guys up to?"
R: "nothing much...just going to try our luck at the Tabu..."
D: "Dude.. Tabu sucks, come down to Tryst, I can get you in!"
R: "Be right there!!" *click*
D didn't have to sell me on coming to Tryst. Its Tryst, its LDW and he can get us in. Thats all I needed to hear! I just went straight to the valet and asked them to bring me my chariots of fire.. cause we are heading to the Wynn.
Getting to the Wynn at a midnight can be hectic. Who would've thought that at 12:45 at night, there would be a traffic jam that goes for 4 blocks on the strip. Damn that city center construction!! (its going to be worth it though when its all done..) I quickly diverted back to the side streets to up to the Wynn. We quickly parked in the first available spot in the garage and I gave Dnix a call,
R: "Hey buddy.. we are here!"
D: "Just meet me out front!"
We marched up to Tryst quickly since we didn't want to keep him waiting. For the first time we actually got into a club confidently knowing we are going to get in without being hassled around. Thats a good feeling to have.
I got up to the Tryst line, and it was running a good 40-50 people deep. Normally weekend lines run up to 200 people deep, so I m guessing most of the people are already in. At the corner of my eye I see guy wear a stylish red t-shirt and jeans. I knew it had to be Dnix since he was the only guy in the crowd wearing a T-shirt, and I m sure Tryst won't give him sh*t for wearing one because D is just cool like that.
I greeted Dnix with my standard fist bump, and introduced him to my gf. At the sametime KC was waiting in line for D as well. I also gave KC a fist bump as well and at that time I thought he was Cisco until he told me he was from Kansas City. In the back of my mind I was completely surprised that he was not a white guy haha Oh well, thats what he gets for not putting up a profile pic.
D got a hold of Patrick Frank. He came out to the line and shook each one of our hands. We told him that we heard about him on JC's website. He told us that we can contact him whenever we need anything in Vegas. I liked the guy's swagger and he was real cool. I will def. contact Patrick Frank from now on. He wrote us up our comp'd admissions paper and we had to clear check point #1 (id check). I looked back at KC and told him, "Dude.. this piece of paper I m holding is worth $500"
At check point #2, I handed the gal the paper and said it was for all 3 of us. She quickly pointed us to the guy that was giving the stamps out. Then on to the stairs for check point #3 where the music started to get bumping. The security checked our $500 stamps and let us keep strolling.
Reality finally set in when we saw the plush red carpet inside Tryst. We were safe and sound, and in Tryst on LDW. "Hell f*cking yea, lets party!" I followed D through a crowd, and it seemed like he knew everyone at that place. We crashed through the dance floor following him and he fist bumped almost every one there. Then he hugged a couple of ladies by the stripper poles, and sure enough the JC table was right at the stripper pole. GF gave me the look that this is as good as it can get.
KC bought us all drinks, and we quickly killed it. By the time we got there D and his crew already killed 2 goose bottles. He asked if we wanted to go in on a 3rd one. I was like hell yea, its LDW.. I m willing to do whatever to contribute to the cause. I emptied my wallet of all my cash to Dnix, and KC did the same. Couple minutes later a girl in a lingerie halter top rolled out another goose for the slaying.
I made myself a drink, but it was more for the GF. Since I m driving I m sticking hard to the 1 drink limit. Soon enough I saw a row of girls, I m thinking maybe 3-4 girls coming over to us with a guy that looked like LL Cool J. He was like "Royale ... whats up buddy!!" I was like "Nassau.. its really you man.. what up!" We gave each other fist bumps and half hugs. Behind the row of ladies came NC " Whats going on Royale.." I was like... "you must be..." "NC man.. John!"" Nice to meet you man!" NC I can clearly tell he was tossed. He had a red cheeks and he was stumbling around. But it was definitely a sign of good times at the JC table.
GF got a drink and was wondering wtf nobody is using that empty pole. There were a bunch of ladies pushing each other , but none of them wanted to get on. I told her.. "hey its your chance." She got up on the pole in a hurry and started work to the song of " back dat azz up". Very appropriate song to start off the dance. A group of guys surrounded the stripper pole area as she put on show and I continued to socialize with the JC crew. Knowing the gf has mma training, shes more then capable of handling herself lol
I was talking to Nassau and KC..and at the corner of my eye I saw cups flying and ice all over the place. I was like WTF.. Dnix is laying flat on his back. I rush over there and help him get up. I was like, "did you slip man?" dnix, "no.. just fell"
I thought he was serious, so I let him go do his thing. A couple mins later I saw him stumbling around the couch. I handed him a fiji and told him he needed to hydrate. Then I asked if he needed a ride back to the hotel, and he said "no need.. its all taken care of." I m not too sure what exactly that meant. I continue to socialize with Nassau, KC and NC..and we were having a good ol time. About 30 mins later D was no where to be found.
The big bouncer guy walks over to us and tells me, "I put your boy in a cab and he is taken care of..." I m like "thanks bro.. I really appreciate it" The next day we found out that Dnix had to be wheel chaired back to his room!!
The rest of us continued to party. I saw KC with 6 latina girls at one point. He asked me to snap a few pics which I did with the girls camera. I wish I gotten a shot of him with my own camera. KC you are like the Enrique Igelsias for the ladies haha
Nassau and I were talking about the forums a bit on the couch and I could tell hes had a long day. He was drinking Fiji and shutting it down. You can really tell whos throwing in the towel once the Fiji comes out. Thats a rule to live by. At about 3:30 the club was dying down, but there were still enough people there to fill up Tryst at a normal capacity during a week day. We had our fun and thought it was a good idea to take off. I said bye to everyone at the table. KC was no where to be found.. I m assuming he took off with the girls.. who knows. But it was one crazy LDW night with the boys of JC. I can proudly say , "We tore that sh*t up!"

Quote from the Yelp review of Green Door:
"I did run into a stripper/crack whore in one corner who seemed awfully lonely. She was quietly sipping a beer. I asked her how much it would cost for her to sh_t on my chest while I jacked off and after a moment of eyeing me she replied "$200 for you sweetheart - we can use saran wrap if you want, they've got some up front". "
Wowowowow
Patrick frank is awesome and I did introduce you to him as we were walking in, but that's not who opened the ropes for you or comped ur cover. Nor was he my host. I just introduced you so you could put a name with the face, incase you ever used him.
So who opened the ropes and comped the cover?? share your secrets Super Moderator

Jared Garcia takes care of me at Tryst, but thats no secret. I used him first and theres some loyalty there, and loyalty is what gets you taken care of. I guarantee you if nyc2vegas would have been there, he would have gotten the same treatment from Patrick Frank. Hell, nyc2vegas gets the same damn table every time. I bet host only sell bottles to 10-20% of the peeps that contact them. So when a repeat customer contacts them, they really appreciate the business.
So thats the secret. No matter who your host is, make sure they remember you in a positive way. :D
KC2Vegas 09-10-2009, 08:47 PM The rest of us continued to party. I saw KC with 6 latina girls at one point. He asked me to snap a few pics which I did with the girls camera. I wish I gotten a shot of him with my own camera. KC you are like the Enrique Igelsias for the ladies haha
I needed a wingman pretty bad...:( it was a great time.
please tell me they were hot i dont rember. :D

KC2Vegas 09-10-2009, 09:09 PM yeah it will be in the tr. Cant wait to see the vid of tao im working on my vids now. You can see us at spyonvegas.com when we were filming at tao.
royale 09-10-2009, 10:01 PM I was rolling around in bed after a loong night, but I didn't drink too much so I wasn't in a state of drunkeness. Infact I was all hyped up. I got up again and went "Vegas Vegas Vegas.. LETS GO!!" Then I looked around, wait its not my room..and I m not home. I m already here. It was one of those WTF moments where you forgot you are sleeping somewhere else. I checked my phone and it was 8:05AM, I slept a total of 3 1/2 hours after getting back at 3:30am. I was ready to partaaaai again.
I looked over and the GF was passed the F out. She practically drank all my drinks since I was the DD. I turned the TV on and watched ESPN, and that was loud enough to wake her. She said that she didn't feel too well and her kidneys were hurting. So we decided it was a good idea to stay hydrated and to get some breakfast. We hit up the Deli at the Signatures tower 2. If there was a thing called gourmet breakfast, this place sure served them up. $24 of hotel credit sure went like it was $2. But I have to say, everything we ordered from the all american breakfast platter to the french toast sandwich was supremely tasty, and just what we needed to refuel.
We got about back around 10:30 or 11, I decided to take a mini nap and get up at 12 to get ready for the pool. I get a call at about 12:30 from Nassau's phone saying they are getting ready to head to the Wet and to get ready. I knew it was game time. GF was excited to go back to the Wet. We always have a great time there.
At around 1:30, I slow stroll down from Tower 3 walk around the flower beds and found this hidden tunnel that led to Wet Republic. I was carrying my red Silo cup full of Belvy + Cran. I saw Nassau when I opened the secret gate from the Signatures infront of the line at Wet. He said, "That drink sure looks delish..." The music at this point was loud enough and bumping. Wet Republic probably has the best out doors speakers in the world where it really feels like you are indoors in a club while you are in a huge open area.
I gave both of them fist bumps and our crew was ready to be marched into Wet. Dnix went up to the guy in front at check point #1 holding the clipboard. He said a few things, and the conversation lasted about 30 seconds. We by passed a line running about 100 people in bathing suits deep. We then got to the VIP id checking line at check point #2. A nice friendly guy asked us to pull up our shades so he can confirm it was really us. I looked over and saw a bunch of pissed people standing in the heat in the non-VIP id checking line waiting for days to get their IDs checked. We then were directed to a path that ran along the back wall. We got to check point #3 where people were dishing out $100 bills for the cover charges and D waved someone down that looked like a higher up at the Wet and he gave the gals a hand signal that everyone in our group is comped. He told the stamp guy to stamp us, and soon enough we were all carrying $100 stamps which gave us access to LDW 09 the whole day Sunday. Check point #4 was this retarded one where they checked your bags, and made you throw out water bottles. GF had some kidney pain so I brought some extra water bottles which we had to toss straight into the trash can. We both took chugs from them and wasted the rest.
We stepped in the Wet and 2 to 3 girls in straight up thongs walk by with towels looking for a spot. I looked at the DJ and sure enough it was SHARAM. Sharam is one off the hook DJ.. if you guys don't know, just watch this vid right now:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GCt4V_0IUfM
And I was ready to party all the time with my JC crew. Dnix walked us over to his favorite bartender and within seconds, drinks with an expected amount of goose was ready for consumption. We found this sweet spot in the main party pool right when you walk in , the first corner. I drop our stuff down and hop into the pool with Dnix. GF was feeling a little Iffy, so she decided to just lay out and tan. Nassau was wearing cargo shorts at a pool party LOL but he was pimping and styling at the sametime, I cant blame him.
I chilled in the pool a little bit kind of reflecting on the forum and some of the members with D, while Sharam was playing these bumping ass tunes. These tunes were seriously bumping.. like the bass would thump so hard from those Wet speakers that it rattles your brain and makes a pleasurable sensation that makes you then dance in the pool and knod your head. I was sipping on my double sized Wet Rep Cran +Goose. Gotta keep things the same to be on the safe side. Chugged it all down.
Dnix was talking to some towel boy at Wet Rep, it seemed like he knew everyone where we went. I would say maybe ten minutes later, the towel boy brought him back some shades. I walk over to him with a WTF? look. Hes like, "yea I needed some shades and they hooked it up" These arent your shades you pick up at the $10 gift shop on the strip. Its looked like a nice pair of Dolce and Gabanna from the gift shop. Simply styling. I was like ,"Sh*t.. they need to get Nassau some board shorts.. "
GF came back from the restroom and her kidneys were hurting some more. Nassau ran off got me another goose cran and got the GF a Fiji. (Thanks Nassau.. she appreciates it alot!) She was sipping on some Fiji until she couldn't take it anymore. She needed go back to the room and rest. I was cool with that, I told her to call me if she feels worst. So it was just the 3 of us.. its time for the boys to hang.
I was chilling in our little corner where we would meet random people with Dnix. This girl swims up to me and says hi. I introduce myself and she cracks up.. I noticed a mouth full of braces. I found out she was from Texas..so I introduced her to Dnix right away. Dnix said HI, and when the girl looked away I asked him what he thinks.. hes like , "oh helll naw..." We swim a few feet away to distance ourselves...
This has to be an hour of us just relaxing, listening to Sharam bumping his tunes and Dnix suggested its a good idea to call and check up on my girl. I agreed.. I called her and she was happy I did check up on her shes fine for now. I came back and told Dnix thats a player move, I never even thought about that LOL Meanwhile Nassau rolls back with about 3 girls after he went and did his thing. The 3 girls were kind of stashed away at our corner of the pool, then he asked me if I wanted to be his "Shade". "hell yea man.. lets roll"
A shade is basically a wingman, its always good to roll around with a crew to look somewhat organized and I was ready to contribute to cause. We went to the bar and got another super sized Cran Goose. We stroll around with our drinks, and it seemed like every corner we turned.. the girls Nassau passed they always did a double take. So I tipped Nassau off which ones seem interested. We turned one more corner and this little midgety girl jumps on Nassau's shoulders and knocks over his drink. She was all excited to see him.. I m guessing its someone he knows from the night before. She then looked down and realized that she knocked over Nassau's drink. We were both like umm... thats kind of lame, but whatever. The girl then slowly started to form tears around her eyes. Then it got to the point where she sat down to sob, "i didnt mean too! I m such an idiot!!" We were like its all good yo.. its just a drink. But the girl just wouldnt stop wheeping. Nassau started to walk away and I followed him.. the girl grabbed on to my hands. I was like WTF. Imagine two guys over 6 feet with this tiny girl thats no taller then 5 foot and I m holding her hand. It looked like a kid getting pulled out of the amusement park by her daddy. As we were walking her friend came back from the restroom. I handed her over to her friend and both Nassau and I thought this was an opportune moment to bail the F out.
We found our way back into our corner and the girls Nassau brought over were still hanging out. I guess thats like our recruiting station for the rest of the day lol I got in the pool with everyone, and Nassau went for another run. I got another Goose cran coming my way. I forgot that I should probably go to the rest room if I m going to work on my 5th double sized drink. My drink comes and I gather everyone around me and have their full undivided attention. "No matter what you guys do, please protect this drink.. Im going to set it right here..and when I get back, please make sure its in one piece."
royale 09-10-2009, 10:02 PM I go to the restroom and it had to be no longer then 5 minutes. I come back and sure enough my drink was half empty. I looked at it and everyone was cracking a smile.. I was like ok WTF happened. They fessed up, " Some drunk just kicked it and we didn't have a chance to save it.. " This is a time for another Vegas lesson. Never set your drink down at a pool party. It never fails that a drunk mofo will kick it or it will some how magically knock itself down. I told them its alright..its bound to happen. One of the girls was nice enough to let me share her drink.
Its been a good few hours at Wet, we were all having fun. I thought it was a good idea to check my phone again. Looks like GF called and left a message. I quickly called her back and she said her kidneys were hurting real bad. I told her just hang tight.. I will run back to the tower. I politely excuse myself from the crowd and told Nassau what was going on. I couldn't find Dnix so I called him and left a drunken message. I hope it saved... its probably one of those classics.
I drunk walk my way back into the room. I didn't realized how many drinks I have had..but after Sharam's music stopped I could barely stand up. Everything became a blur, and the room started to spin. GF mumbled something like, "I called the Dr. and they said I should go to the hospital..." I was like WTF.. I cant drive you, can you take a cab? She was ok with this. My last moments that I remember was going to my walet and leaning over to hand her a $20 like someone trying to score a goaline touchdown. I laid face first in the bed and couldn't move. GF said, "If you need to throw up the trash can is right next to you.. " She takes off from the room..and battle in my stomach began.
(to be continued...)
Im LMAO at your TR. I remember the drink incident, but I dont remember it being half empty. I thought is was half full...........with pool water. LOL

Keebler 09-11-2009, 07:20 AM She was getting kidney stones? I was wondering what the hell was happening. And to tell you honestly ive never heard of a girl getting kidney stones, but i guess its possible. For some reason i always hear about guys and kidney stones. That sucks. Hope all is ok.

Dude you got a contracting gig? Nice! I told you that's the way to go. Let me know the details sometime.
royale 09-11-2009, 11:35 AM So the battle between me and my stomach was fought and lost. I found myself rinsing out the trash can. The pimped out room at Signatures even had dish detergent available, so I got the trash can all squeeky clean. Hah.. looked like nothing happened. But I on the other hand was a bit woozy.
I got a call back from the GF telling me that shes going to be ok, and she will need to take meds for her kidneys. So she will have get to walgreens. I told her to make sure its somewhat close to our hotel and we hung up. I forgot what really happened after that, I just sat still in one position and rolled my head to the side and fell asleep.
An hour or two go by and the phone rings again.. I checked and its 8:05pm and it was the gf calling again. She said shes at the walgreens, got her meds but these guys on the strip handing out porn cards are trying to grab her. "WTF.. why are they trying to grab you?" " I dont know, but this is really scary.. come get me... " I hung up and felt like I was somewhat coherent, but in not quiet driving shape yet. Fortunately she was close enough to the hotel where I can get there on foot in about twenty minutes.
I hop in the shower, and feel completely better. So instead of wearing some shorts, I might as well put on some clothes for Tao. I actually have a shot at using these Wantickets I bought, and certainly didn't want to waste them. I call the GF to let her know I m coming, and to stay close to the Walgreens so the "porn handlers" won't grab her. I called KC and let him know that I up-chucked a few times after Wet and I m planning on getting there at 11pm and to wait up for me.
I started walking from Tower#3 at the Signatures all the way through the walkways for each tower. The best part of the Signatures and MGM are the towers being connected. I was still in recovery stages, so this walk definitely helped me cool off a bit for my activities later in the evening. I got to a manual door where you had to hold open, and these girls were coming up.. I wasn't quite all there so my judgment was off. I think I let the door go and almost hit the girl.. "Thanks for nothing asshole!" Whatever.. I gotta keep on moving and rescue the GF.
I got to the Walgreens and she was standing outside all scared looking. I asked her if everything was ok and she said she was fine, and just had to take her meds. There was a panda express next to the walgreens, so we decided to make a pit stop there on the way back. Having some food in my stomach definitely helped a lot. I started drinking water the rest of night... Infact the thought of goose, or seeing a pack of geeses would make me want to upchuck. I m going to cool it for the rest of the day.
We get back to the hotel, and it was about 10:15pm. The GF was completely cool with me going to Morillo by myself, and she needed to take meds and rest. So I tucked her in and turned off the lights. I left the room and it was Morillo time!
RobertRich 09-11-2009, 11:43 AM Ah, a chivalric conundrum. Wait the extra seconds to hold the door open for a random girl, or let it swing back into said girl in your quest to rescue the fair maiden gf.
A tough decision, but I think you made the right one.
royale 09-11-2009, 11:58 AM I got the car out of the valet, and they handed me an extra water bottle to bring with me. What a nice bunch of guys! They even left my AC on high and blasting. I knew the back ways so it didn't take me more then 10 minutes to get to the Venetian.
I roll up to Venetian at about 11 and give KC a call...
R: Yo man, I m here!
K: Alright, meet me at Tao Beach...
R: OH the Tao Beach sign?
K: Yea...
R: Be right there..
I go up to Tao at 11 and noticed the line wasn't that bad. I asked one of the guys in suits and he directed me to go outside of the hotel for the guest list line. I walked outside and then my jaw dropped.. WTF. The guestlist line is huge! Then I talked to one of the clipboard guys outside and told them I was a Wantickets customer. Hes directed me to the VIP guestlists line. I was the only one in the line and first one in the line. I got into Tao a few minutes later.. Look back at the guestlisters "hahah suckahs!"
I call up KC and tell him that I m at the Tao Beach sign.. where the F is he! Hes like I m at Tao Beach yo.. Ok I didn't know Tao Beach opened up during Tao club hours. This is neat. I make my way upstairs and to Tao Beach where I manage to find KC and his crew in the middle of the dance floor. KC gave me the fist bump as he was double fisting two drinks. His crew was already drinking up as well. He had two guys, one was older, one younger..both were great partiers. He asked me if I wanted anything.. I politely just asked for water eventhough my mind wanted something else.
We BS'd for about a good 30 minutes. We bragged about how good of a time we had Tryst and his boys missed out. His boys were asking me pointers on how to get Vegas and Socal women. I gave them a few select pointers. One of the boys decided to try it out, and was quickly pushed away. The older one in the crew was like "let me know show you how its done". He comes up on the girl and starts dancing behind her.. as hes doing that, hes whispering a few things and the girl knods and they dance for like 10 minutes. I told KC's friend, "do what that guy is doing."
Now it was approaching midnight, and we knew Morillo was going to come up on stage. Its time to dispatch downstairs to Tao. This is probably my best video work on this trip. I can describe this scene probably like soldiers landing on the beaches to fight a war. KC and our crew just landed, and we are about go to battle at Tao:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s6n6-wO-Xdk
We were just immersed into the bass. The DJ was just spinning off the hook. Its not even Eric Morillo, but we were feeling that music. We cruised around Tao to find a good chill spot. On the way there we spotted the infamous naked "Tub Girls"..
Heres a vid of them setting up:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=druZwvhC1Ds
We finally found a sweet spot inside the opium room to chill. Too bad I didn't even know that MrVegas was probably a few tables a way. We were that close, and I didn't think to call him. See folks.. this is why you gotta fill out your signatures with your itinerary BEFORE you leave.
At about 1:30am or so Eric Morillo came on stage and just about blew the roof off. We got as close to the stage as possible. I had to fight off a few short dudes, but managed to get a very good spot to film the action. If you guys don't love house, I think you will start loving house. Eric Morillo just puts the club in a mood to party. His mixes will make your ear ring with pleasurable sensations for the entire night. Heres a hi-def vid of his performance:

Being able to see Eric Morillo definitely made a good day even better. I got KC into loving house music. He kept telling me how hes never liked it until I introduced it to him haha Welcome to Vegas. They got the best of the best, and you gotta love house to love all the clubs in Vegas.
I ended up taking off at about 2:30. I left early because I wanted to make sure the GF was alright, and also maybe squeeze in another day at Wet.. if I can make it that is!

royale 09-11-2009, 12:07 PM Ah, a chivalric conundrum. Wait the extra seconds to hold the door open for a random girl, or let it swing back into said girl in your quest to rescue the fair maiden gf.
A tough decision, but I think you made the right one.
haha atleast the fair maiden has worthy rewards for the rescuing :)
I go up to Tao at 11 and noticed the line wasn't that bad. I asked one of the guys in suits and he directed me to go outside of the hotel for the guest list line. I walked outside and then my jaw dropped.. WTF. The guestlist line is huge! Then I talked to one of the clipboard guys outside and told them I was a Wantickets customer. Hes directed me to the VIP guestlists line. I was the only one in the line and first one in the line. I got into Tao a few minutes later.. Look back at the guestlisters "hahah suckahs!"
So wantickets works for avoiding the line at TAO too or was it just a LDW event thing?
royale 09-11-2009, 12:17 PM So wantickets works for avoiding the line at TAO too or was it just a LDW event thing?
Wantickets work as long as you buying them for specific days at Tao, just like how they do at Wet. You can't buy one and use them whenever. But for regular days at Tao, I would just try Larson. He hooked us up guestlist last time. Morillo was a special event and he couldn't do much for us.

OH the fucking pain u insensitive bastard, LOL:D I will never forget my trip to Orlando summer of '08. Get in the pool with my margarita at the hard rock hotel. I'm like, wtf? my stomach was bothering me. Then it turned into excruciating pain. It was a kidney stone. I pushed fluids and passed it the next day at disney. It was 12 hours of the worst pain ever. I still went to Universal that evening although I passed on the rides. Your GF is a champ and a keeper

She was getting kidney stones? I was wondering what the hell was happening. And to tell you honestly ive never heard of a girl getting kidney stones, but i guess its possible. For some reason i always hear about guys and kidney stones. That sucks. Hope all is ok.

Man I cant imagine. I think she ended up going to the Sunrise Medical Center out in Vegas.
She is indeed a keeper and she went to the drs again today and is fully recovering now...
Quick google search and apparently Men are 4x as likely to get them than women.
She's a trooper for sure!
Well that explains it

She didn't have to pee any rocks, so it was like a real intense kidney infection. The meds she got in Vegas started working right away. She got knocked out that night when I went to Tao though...

haha Ellejay told me they were covered nothing but petals and its so true. From the looks of it, they make sure the nipps are covered with a big petal with glue and couple others surrounding the boobs. These girls did have over sized D-bags though so it took quite a few petals to cover them.
Cisco419 09-11-2009, 07:43 PM ooops my bad... I heard it does take a few days to fully flush that alcohol out of your system :D I m pretty sure at one point or another i had more alcohol in my blood stream then h2o.
Didnt you say you only had 1 drink at Tryst?!?
Im telling you, the next time im in Vegas i making a strict specification on the people who go with me. I mean i had a great time and all at Wasted Space, but Tryst is one of my favorite clubs and i would have loved to have been there with you guys, but my guys were too cheap to pay. Big standards coming next trip.

I wanted to have a bath at tzao but theya wrent really into it :D
royale 09-11-2009, 08:41 PM After getting back from the Morillo concert early and at a decent time, I was able to wake up early and get myself back to a fresh start. I think this was the first time on my trip where I did sleep more then 5 hours. I slept 5 and half hours.
I got up early with the GF and thought it would be a great idea if we check in to our second hotel the MGM a bit early. I heard great things about the all-day buffet and we got a special on it. We ended up doing our 20 minute trek through the hallways of MGM again, but this time around it wasn't as painful because we were both very sober and well rested. I checked in with some smoothness, and there was no sandwiching attempt what so ever. Its my last night.. who really cares if my view is of some Stucco.
We took advantage of our deals immediately by going to the buffet. This was really our first meal since..... breakfast the day before! So this breakfast we are going to try to make the most of it. GF still had a few side effects from the meds, so she hit up the salad bar. I went straight for the omelets and these cheese square things that melted in your mouth. I grabed a few more plates of eggs, roast beef and brownies. Whata complete breakfast.
After getting our stomach filled with food instead of alcoholic beverages, we made our walk back to the Signatures for the pack and check out. Ideally I was planning on leaving this morning, but I extended my vacation the last minute when I saw this deal on Wet Republic. I kind of assumed that I was going to get hook ups, and it would be a shame to not go to Wet since thats our favorite place.
<Fast Forward to 1pm>
We are checked in at MGM and have our room all setup. I call KC and he doesn't answer. He calls me back about 20 minutes later and says hes way too trashed. He went to after hours with Nassau after Tao, and it was just off the hook. I told him to rest up and if he changes his mind to let us know. I called Dnix to see how hes been... he picks up the phone and I can barely recognize his voice. He sounded all tired.. I asked him if I called at a bad time. Hes like, "No man.. just waking up..." I asked if he was down for Wet and he told me he first needed to have a meal. Hes been exhausted from a rough night at XS. Come to think of I did miss a call from Dnix the night before and there was some loud music in the background..that must of been from XS.. .oops! So I tell Dnix to rest up and call me if he makes it down to the MGM pool.
royale 09-11-2009, 08:41 PM 2pm finally rolls around and the GF and I thought it was time to get some fun in the sun. We make our walk down through the MGM casinos and out to the MGM pool. We look around and it was moms, kids running around and screaming and more moms chasing after them. At the back of my mind, I thought I heard some bumping bass coming out of the backside of the MGM pool. I look at GF direction and we both agree that we need a change of scenery and we are going back to Wet.
Checkin into Wet today wasn't VIP styles like it was the day before. We actually had to stand in line. But the good news is that after 3 lines, it didn't take longer then 20 minutes which was very reasonable. I also charged the $150 cover back to my room, and it was completely comped by the hotel. Atleast I can say I got into Wet free by myself.. Dnix u gotta give me that haha
So we got in and today it was obvious that most of the wild and crazy LDW partiers have gone home. There were still people left, but it was just not as packed as the day before. We find a spot in the 2nd pool which we chilled at last time, and had a great time.
I set our stuff down and the GF needed to go to the restroom. I was sitting by the pool side waiting for her and within a minute, 2 drunk ladies swooped in and introduced themselves to me. I introduced myself and they smiled.. I noticed that one of them had some serious freckles while the other... lets say should've kept the shades on. They asked, "Why aren't you getting in the pool? Are you afraid of getting Wet? he he he he" I thought this was a great opportune moment to drop the bomb and end all this. " Oh I m waiting for my girlfriend to get back from the rest room. We will get in later.. " Finally for the next minute there was a nice silence for me to listen to music that was bumping at Wet.
GF gets back and the 2 drunken girls shake her hand. One of them whispered something into the GFs ear. BTW my gf never told me what they said.. but she had a smile on her face. I can guess it was something close to this " You have a P-whipped BF, but he seems to be a keeper" Either ways.. whatever, its LDW and all.. I m just there to have a great time. Now it was my turn to head to the restroom and bring back a drink.
I go to the bar and I managed to track down Dnix's boy and bought a drink from him. GF didn't want any so I ordered one drink with ice water. But I made sure it was a 100% tip on top of the drink because he really took care of us. Heres time for another Vegas tip. When you are tipping in Vegas.. make sure you take care of the source thats actually taking care of you! It leaves a more lasting impression. There are too many middle men out there that are just going to hussle the other person's tips.
I grab the drinks and I head back to the pool and found the GF. She had a disturbed look on her face.. I asked what was wrong. "That guy over there wanted to throw me in the pool..so I slapped him.." Wow.. these things happen, but I m glad she can defend herself. I looked over and it was a group of hispanic males.. none of them seem to be speaking english, so they might not be from around here. Or they could be just from East-LA. So I thought it would be good idea if we scoot over to the corner of the pool and just be out of these douchebags way.
We get into the water and the gf wanted to take a pics of me. She took the camera out and was about to take the picture and then she turned around quickly. *splash* The big tubby one in the douche bag group did a cannon ball. I look over and he was tipsy as f*ck. He was bringing his bottle of Kettle one into the pool and just pouring it in the water. I was like WTF.. this is getting lame. Lets just leave this area completely.
We gathered our stuff and migrated to the other side of the pool. We feel much safer on this side just being out of the way of the douche bags. It was getting to be about 6pm and the air was getting cooler. Vegas as a whole was cooling down. Its a sign that the end of pool parties are coming soon.
This was about the sametime Deadmau5 took the stage and took control of the crowd with his music.
Heres some footage and a pic of Deadmau5:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QwytvLmWzrs

As we were enjoying the music, there was some other drama going on. On the douchebag's side of the pool, one of the guys decided it was a good idea to dump some random girl at the chair next to them in the pool. They both go into the water. The girl gets up and punches him square in the fore head. The guy gets back up and gets very irritated and I guess he started mouthing off to the girl. They both get out of the water and a shouting match ensued. The soaked girl's bf steps in and starts talking to the tubby guy (who did a cannon ball next to us earlier) whos a friend of the douche that dumped the girl into the water.
They both get in each other's faces and both were in a stare down. The kicker is that the boyfriend was a big yoked guy and the other dude was a short tubby douche. I would love to see him get worked in this fight. No punches were thrown, the Wet Republic security guys step in to seperate the two. The drama only starts to get better.
The security was able to restrain the tubby one, but for some reason he just wouldn't stop yelling. I m not sure in what language if the guards don't understand spanish. He was trying to defend his friend that he was playing around by dumping some random girl into the water. I don't really call that playing around myself. The tubby guy and his friend both side by side were yelling at the security and his friend got accidently pushed into the pool and he falls in. This draws a cheer from the entire section of our pool.
The tubby guy just wouldn't quit talking and the security guards were ready to escort him out of the place. As he was getting walked out he grabs an innocent bystanders top and pulls it off. Boobs just come flying out and the girl is totally embarassed. At that point he went out of line. The police came in quickly and tackled him to the daybed. As they were cuffing him up, the tubby guy's gf started to hit the police on the back, and she gets tackled to the day bed as well. We can only expect this to get better. The friend that started the entire fight jumps in and tries to rescue his friends, but gets pushed aside by a bigger pool boy working at Wet. He then tries to kick the pool boy, and just as he was kicking, the pool boy made this sweet move where he dodged the kick, and took other the dudes other leg out at the sametime. The guy falls down and he was able pin both his arms and legs down and restraint him.
All in all, there were 3 arrests made! We didn't get to see Deadmau5 like we wanted to, but we sure made up for all the fights we missed in Vegas. Dammmmn I should've put a bet that we this coming. Whenever you guys see douches at the pool, stay cool and just walk away. Its never worth it to ruin your vacation or your permanent record over :D
(more to come at XS later..)

Going to Vegas, the last place I would be expecting to dine at would be the Panda Express in some random shopping center off the strip. I hardly ever walk to anywhere, but since I had to walk this instance after doing a lot of drinking, I had to get a bite to eat at this Panda Express.
You can walk to this Panda from MGM, and it would take you no more then 15 minutes. The things I would probably look out for on the way there are the porn handlers, and drunk dudes that like to get frisky.
Once you get to this location, its almost impossible to find seating. Since there are multiple fast food joints at this food court, all of the tables are almost always taken. An indian family was nice enough to let us take a corner of their table to dine.
As far as service goes.. there is no service at this Panda. Imagine having to deal with strip traffic day and night. All of the people working there resort to being your high school lunch lady. Rice or Chow Mein? *slaps one scoop on your plate and keep on moving*
They won't even let you pay ahead of someone that was dining in. I ordered my order to go and about 99% of the time at other Panda Expresses, they would let me pay right away. Nope, not at this one. They need to make sure you get the full high school cafeteria experience.
Come here if you don't have a car, hurting for food..and this is a last resort. Otherwise there are plenty of better Pandas, or other options out there.

My last memories of the MGM Buffet was maybe 2 or 3 years ago before they started doing this "all-day buffet" thing. I love the concept of paying a flat rate of $33.60 (more on the weekends) and getting 3 turns at the buffet from Breakfast, Lunch to Dinner. They hand you this card where they will punch a hole in everytime you eat. Kind of like your high school lunch card.
I came here for breakfast, and there was nothing breakfast wise that really impressed me. I would say the best item during breakfast was having roast beef with au jus which is really a lunch or dinner item.
Lunch time, they expanded the trays a bit. I remember them used to have some type of fish or salmon. They had shrimp in the open bar, but nothing spectacular. The high light item was the desert plate of tiramasu. Still this is not as good as the buffet at the Paris.
Lastly at dinner, the gf found the california rolls to be a high light and I m not much of a sushi fan. So I got stuck with roast beef au jux again for dinner.
Overall I wasn't impressed and I notice that the quality has degraded since the old days of MGM. If you want great buffet food go elsewhere. If you want a good bang for your buck, then come here. If you are getting a special with MGM where you get 2 for 1 buffet, then definitely take advantage of it. Otherwise, there are plenty of better buffet options out there.

Update - 9/12/2009 3 photos
Staying at the MGM this time around on my trip wasn't so much about getting a quality room, but more about the perks and bonuses that came with booking your room. You pretty much have a city built inside the hotel, and you will have everything at your disposal. The night before we stayed at the Signatures, and we knew the move wouldn't be that big of deal. Its about a 10-15 min walk from the towers of Signatures to MGM.
The room itself definitely lived up to the name. Beds were very comfortable, showers were large enough and had good source of hot water and there was even a desk and a couch for you spend time away from the beds. I hate hotels where the only thing you get is just a bed, it reminds me of motel 6. The only gripe I have is that the room's TV is still the old school tube. Most hotels now days atleast come with a flat screen. I m sure the West Wing has it hooked up like that. Other then that, the room was great!
As far as amenities and perks, I will start off by saying I saved about $150 off the cover at Wet Republic. I got a special which gave us free access, and we were able to use it towards LDW 09 Monday. Next we saved an additional $40 off the all day buffet. We got a 2 for 1 deal, so I only had to pay for one person. We could've saved more if we went to Tabu, but we got hook ups at XS.. so we weren't going to mess around. All in all, we got almost $200 worth of perks, and I paid about $58 after tax for my room. I think it was a great deal.
Im definitely going to come back to the MGM if they run deals like this again. Would I pay $199 a night here? Nope. $52 a night with all the perks.. hell yes.

What does one do to party with the JC peeps? I have nothing valuable to offer the forums yet. After my first trip I will tho. I'll do the whole TR thing.
Quick question actually: it sounds like Tao is pretty hot. What would be a better place to be on a Friday night, Pure or Tao? I was going to head to Pure, but Tao sounds like it may be better. Can the experts chime in here?

Id say either one. Big difference would probably be the crowd.
NyceGuy 09-13-2009, 11:28 PM Either way, I'm gonna be stuck on line for a while. It's 6 of us (all guys). We're doing bottles at Tryst and XS (Thurs & Sat respectively). Friday we're just gonna hang, but we wanna be somewhere that has a good vibe. I guess I'll flip a quarter.

To party with the JC peeps you just need to be down to party!
Check out the Get Connected forum here. People post their trip dates and arrange meet ups etc through there when multiple groups go on the same weekend.
btw, if you don't want a hassle of getting into a club on Friday with 6 dudes without bottle service, the recommended spot would be the Palms. All access wristband gets you into all 4 clubs there with minimal to no line. $60 bucks for the band, can get it at the Stuff store at the palms or online at wantickets.

royale 09-14-2009, 09:45 AM Everything clubbing wise in Vegas now days always starts and ends with XS. Everyone pretty much has to stop by this modern miracle of a club, and we were no different. It was 9'ish and I got a call from Dnix that he was too toasted from the activities of the weekend that he was just calling it a night. Infact he said he could'nt even drive out to get food, he had to get room service all day. I don't blame him.. he partied way harder then any JC member on this trip. Gotta give him credit for that. I also spoke with KC and he said he was toasted too. He wanted to make Wet, he couldn't..and XS now is out of the question as well. I respect that, he went to after hours and spent his mornings clubbing. Thats HARD to the core right there.
So we get ready and head over to the XS. Getting our car out of MGM parking lot without valet is definitely not as stylish as leaving the signatures with Valet service. GF also had to walk a hundred miles in heels, but she was ok with it. Both of us were driven by pure adrenaline because its our last day..and its freaking XS for crying out loud.
We got to the parking lots of Wynn at around 10:45 PM. We were a bit worried because we were running slightly late.
I came on a Labor Day Monday to avoid all the hassles. Plus it was easier for my gf's hook up to get us on the guest list. She knows the bartender at XS, so all it took was a text message to get us into this place. At first we were a bit a worried about showing up here at 11pm, because we have seen the "around the block" lines form at this place many times when we stayed at the Wynn, but this was not the case at all.
We found the guest list line to be on the farthest outside, within minutes we were able to track down the clipboard holding guy to get past check point #1. He lifted the ropes and pretty much all was smooth as gravy. We got to the pre-stamp ID check guy at checkpoint #2. Check point #3 was where we handed our comp'ed cover sheet. $200 cover .. I think not. I can proudly say I have never paid to get into XS. If I didn't I wouldn't go there. We got our final stamp on the inside of our arms and we were into this palace of a club.
Everytime we walk in, it never ceases to amaze us. Besides the fact that its bigger then Tryst, but the elaborate decorations definitely makes you feel like you are in a place from a story book. The music system is banging here, so all the top 40 mashups sound way better then you would normally hear them at an average Vegas club.
I managed to get a quick glance video here:

I will also attach couple of panoramic shots of this place as well.
This was our last day in LV, and we were pretty much on our last leg. GF had some energy to dance, but not enough to battle chubby girls for the pole this time. We spent most our evening in the courtyards just chilling. I manage to track down Aleesha (gf's hook up), and bought a drink from her. I ended up giving her a 100% tip on top of my drink because she took care of us getting in. Shes a friendly girl, make sure you guys say hi to either Aleesha or Susan that work in the courtyard as bartenders. That's our girls! I can't wait to be back again at XS.
PS. Ladies you don't ever want to be caught doing this:

Yikeees! I had one of those WTF moments. GF was like you gotta record this for the JC members to prove that this is possible. I thought it wouldn't be possible..actually the bouncers let that happen. I blame them..
All in all this was a great trip. We ended up leaving XS at about 1:30'ish. A very early night to our standards, but we were definitely very satisfied with everything we had accomplished on this trip. I completed 6 parties in 3 days, and GF did 5 after going to the hospital. She was a trooper for hanging with me.
I honestly can't wait until the next JC members party. Those guys are a blast to hang with. Lets try to top my record next time... sound good guys? :D
