It’s official, I am off to Vegas in January to attend the 2006 Consumer Electronics Show, only the biggest electronic gadget show on the planet.
I applied for and was granted press credentials. Woo-hoo! It’s like a back stage pass for geeks!
So it’s 3 days of gawking at shiny new-fangled electronic geegaws and schmoozing with vendors .
I have only been to Vegas once before and that was with my friend John for our Elvis pilgrimage about 15 years ago. There is nothing can compare with seeing an above average Elvis impersonator with the sounds of slots tinking, clinkling and chiming in the background through the whole show.
Several friends have recommended going to see The Blue Man Group so I have acquired a ticket for their show which has moved from the Luxor to the Venetian.
I look forward to the show and having a look at the new luxury resort modelled after Venice.
Should be a real hoot.
I still have the album, programme, and a beverage container in a shrine to Blue Man on my shelves.
If only they made Blue Man Group Pez Dispensers.
