I've seen the look of a heart-shaped turtle dove.

So i know i haven't posted much lately, thought i would take a few minutes now to put up a new post. Alot has been going on in my life and out in Vegas.

For one i now have a fulltime job at the Wynn on the new show -Danny Ganns. So i have been putting in shit tons of hours getting the show up and ready for production. We did almost 2 months of install work and are just now getting into the technical rehersals. The show opens February 6th, so if you make it out you should totally check it out. It is a great production and Danny is great at what he does. If you arn't familar with him, wiki- him. It is a combination of musical numbers with comedy and vocal imatations of 100's of musical artists and celebrity's. Having sat through about 100 hours of the show thus far i can tell you it is worth checking out.

So there are pro's and con's to this new job at the Wynn. It doesn't pay the best and provides no health insurance, but the fun things are that on the 3 days that Danny is not performing we bring in various musical artist.

The reason I have the time to write to you now is because i am currently in the middle of Harry Connick Jr performing onstage. It is nice cause I am basically here to make sure the system doesn't go down, and yet i find myself in the best seat in the house enjoying Harry and listening to his sillyness. Seems to be a nice guy, very on point and always about business. So along with sitting closer to the stage then Harry's security guard.

In the house tonight is Donald Trump, Steve Wynn and wife, Siegfried and Roy, and various other Vegas entertainers. The dogs came in around 4 pm to sniff out the place and make sure no bombs were on site.

One of Harry's jokes to the audiance.

Harry: Steve, can't i play in this theatre when Danny isn't on stage and then i will go serve sandwichs when i am done to make some extra cash. I mean, you have all these beautiful restaurants here, but you also need a little white trash place for a man to grab a sandwich. I already turned down Donald Trumps request to come serve white trash food in his casino, cause he is into that stuff. But you Steve, i would do it for you. What ever you want, just give me a job!!!!


So thats about all i got. I am awaiting to here back on some other future jobs, and i am crossing my fingers for a few in paticular. Just have to be patient
