Vegas obviously :P

Those pics are from the Palms Sky Villa Fantasy Suite, the third biggest one there (behind the Sky Villa 2 and the Hugh Hefner Sky Villa)

Vegas is like the drugs they sell there...

You blow a bunch of money on something that will eventually have some sort of federal agency on your ass. xD

Agreed. That's why me and all my friends have been boycotting Vegas for our "it seems to be" annual bachelor parties for the last few years.

Hell, I could go to an International Destination for the same if not lower price than LV. After all is said and done, we all spend less than we would have in Vegas and we all can have a damn smile on our faces when we return to the Bay.

In Vegas the last few times I have gone, I always feel like my dollar is going nowhere. Things are just too damn pricey for what you get. I really HATE getting ripped off!!!

I'm a vegas native and though I totally agree with you, aside from the strip there are really nice cities/suburbs in the surrounding that is nothing like vegas. It's not a bad place to live if you know where you're going.

Cool. I figured there must be some places the Locals Go that might not be as bad for your wallet. If you have any hints, please do post.

Maybe some of us can check it out the next time we are in Vegas. I mean, we are all going to be back there at some point. Even though it can get pricey, we always find a way to get back there within a few years...

Agree!

I moved to Vegas(Henderson) from LA and it's pretty nice place to live in. Don't go to the strip unless I totally have to (Halloween parties, etc).

Music in clubs suck ass though! Impossible to find a club with cool vibe and decent music.

I miss the early days of EDM scene (RA, C2K, Ice, etc.) I just dont understand why clubs changed the format

Yes, Yes, Yes.... Ra, Ice, maybe Utopia thrown in there too. Never been to C2K so I cannot comment about that. But yes, that's when it was better for sure.

Probably money is the reason we don't have that no mo. Clubs are probably making a lot more with the different music formats. That's what I am assuming at least.
