An Old Fashioned, some red lipstick and a black dress…sigh, there’s just something undeniable about a good ol’ classic. The beloved Vegas showgirl may be an endangered species these days (insert tear), but “VEGAS! THE SHOW” preserved those feather-clad beauties and the likes of an era when everything was flashier and dripping with sophistication. What’s that you ask? Can a show filled with gorgeous and talented women a la Rat Pack era really exist in the here and now? Oh yes my friend, it sure can and all we have to say is raise that curtain and let the good times roll. With a little song, a lot of dance and that certain sultry allure that only old timey Vegas could pull off, this is a trip down memory lane and, well, it’s pretty legit. The costumes are fun, funky, sexy and so real. Ok, well maybe not the candy-themed costumes but hell, their Sammy Davis Jr. sure had us pining for an autograph. For a city that was built on pure, raw talent and obviously dolla dolla bills, this show celebrates iconic moments from the city's rich entertainment history through the decades that made the Vegas we know and love today. And we’ll tip our top hats to that.

In September 1975, Barry Gibb arrived early at a restaurant inside the International Hotel in Las Vegas. He didn’t know the corner booth belonged to Elvis Presley. Nobody told him. He sat down, ordered a drink, and looked at the menu.

Twenty minutes later, Elvis walked in.

What happened next wasn’t a confrontation. Elvis sat down across from him and said one word: Stay.

What followed was four hours neither of them planned. Two men who had both found music before music found them. Two voices that had come from places nobody expected. And a conversation about gospel, about isolation, about what fame costs when it gets large enough to own you.

Barry Gibb never forgot what Elvis said to him that night. He carried it for the rest of his life.

Elvis Presley died on August 16, 1977. Barry was in a Miami studio when he found out. He went quiet for a long time.

He had thought there would be more time. He had been wrong.
