Macklemore was removed from the Neon City Festival lineup after we recorded for making some controversial comments. What do you think of the headliners and are you excited for the festival?
October 12th!!! I go to Vegas a lot and I've seen several Eagles concerts, but this trip was specifically to see the Eagles at the Sphere! Should be awesome.
I've been following Vintage Las Vegas on IG and that flyover footage of the Strip looked so cool. It's just weird seeing how the Strip looked back in the late 80s.
The strip in 1988 was sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much better than today! And if you gambled just a few hundred dollars you would NEVER have to pay for a room.
In the fly over video, the words Circus-Circus on the side of the hotel flashed alternately. Now the lights are stationary. It's a small detail but I liked it much better then!
Great content guys. A new NBA team at TMobile wouldn't work on the profit and programming side unless MGM sells it to the NBA team ownership. It's the concept of owning vs leasing ie expense vs profit. That is why the developers don't ask for public money so they can make it back in sponsorship and naming rights money and hand over the keys to someone else to run programming and own. That is the model that Leiweike started at Staples Center years ago and did it with MLS and NBA teams.
No eff'n way!! Chris looked like he was wearing a Halloween costume. Can't believe the lead singer of COLDPLAY was goofing around karaoke here!! Too cool. I saw Coldplay in England at Glastonbury...... They were absolutely I n c r e d I b l e
I was looking forward to trying Oceans this summer when I stayed at the Elara. Every time I went there the line up was insane so I went somewhere else 🤷🏻♀️
Glad Ocean One survived. They had cheap food and drink specials but you usually had to buy a couple alcoholic drinks to get two free, so you ended up drinking 4 big cocktails with your meal. 😊😊
Sorry, that is where the Castaways stood until 1987 when Steve Wynn Purchased it for the future Mirage site. The race track was next to Caesars parking lot.
On that 1988 video, did you see on the left the Mirage? The building was up but the volcano wasn't even built yet. Don Henley has been pulling the Millie Vanille special lately. Gotta make sure this is legit
Chuck from Indian would not wear that wig. The view out the window at the end of that new hallway from the Horseshoe to the Paris, overlooking a roof, is MUCH better than the view from my room at Paris over Christmas. LOLOL. I booked through a third party... go me.
Do your homework on the Mirage tables. They gut everything and mount it to a cheap plastic table.They take off the brass foot rest ,the electronics. Just want to let your viewers know they are getting mass produced felt. Often they add in a plastic chip tray instead of the lockable metal tray ,then add a cheap plastic discard tray ,and shoe.
@@Milestomemoriesoh darn and I was just making plans to put a gambling den inside my Tuff Shed out back with one of these awesome tables. Well said Mark.
Motel 6 can be ok, I used to work for a cheap employer that put the travelling employees in zero star motels so sometimes it would be motel 6s and some were ok, some not so good.
I hope this Neon festival kicks the @$$ of F1! I wasn't willing to leave Summerlin last year on F1 weekend, but I'm absolutely going to support this Festival downtown and say FU to F1
Considering the widespread reports of cybertruck issues perhaps they should fix them before putting them in a tunnel. Even the ones that work have dangerously inadequate suspension and steering components. Many of them brick themselves for no reason. Not ideal if it happens in a tunnel during rush hour.
I would so like to know more about Pachinko… Apparently in 2015 the Pachinko industry generated more revenue than all of Las Vegas, Macau and Singapore combined…. Yet the Las Vegas strip doesn’t have a single machine……????
Ugh....the Rio 🤦♂ Both my daughter and I and at least 7 others had our cell phones and some female patrons had their handbags stolen there at the Rio Hotel over the Mexican Independence weekend. Seems there was work being done on the security cams on part of the casino floor and I really think someone got inside info to some nefarious folks who took advantage and stole quite a few items from unsuspecting casino and hotel patrons. My daughter only took her eyes off her phone for about 6 to 10 seconds to take a peek at her husband's slot machine next to her. When she looked down at the top of her machine, her phone was gone. Security hasn't recovered either of our phones. We will not be staying or visiting the hotel ever again. Add to all that the fact that only two elevators were working in the Masquerade Tower and there were no signs or cones or any information that management was working to rectify the issue. Just not a good time there overall. Cut up my rewards card the moment I got home.
If you can make money, make money...cue the Patreon grift! Just kidding, I'm a Patreon subscriber. It will be unpopular probably, but I'd like to see the Arena somewhere between Jean and Primm. You've got the secondary airport coming in there. If California could ever pull its head out, you have the other side of the border in Nipton where the Lotto Store sits. Connect Brightline and Loop lines out there. A sky gondola thing, like the one I sent you from Mexico would be awesome and a draw too!
Those stupid Tesla tunnels are such a waste of money. Not surprised if I tab just a way to launder some money or something lol it would be great if all that investment/infrastructure was instead used for actual mass transit
The new walkway is pretty, but do ANY of the designers consider that luggage has to be rolled across those hallways?? WHY do they put carpet in the middle like that? Just some nice tile would have been optimal. Sheesh!
@@antoniag4625 I don't use the bellhop often because I don't like to have to sit and wait in my room for them to bring me my luggage. I wheel my own because I want to get in my room, freshen up and hit the slot machines, or go eat or whatever it is I need to do in the moment. I've watched plenty of videos of people walking from the Paris lobby over to the new tower through the mall pulling their luggage. Can't imagine it'll be much different with this walkway in place.
EAGLES lip sync their vocals. It's already been proven on UA-cam. They are faking singing. No way I'd pay ever again to see that band. Plus Don Henley is just an awful human being. I've seen them long ago before learning about these things the lip syncing especially is just an embarrassment.
And they are extremely rare. Once again, the point is missed, too subtle I guess. Why is someone from Michigan telling me about a city I've lived in for 30 years.
Macklemore was removed from the Neon City Festival lineup after we recorded for making some controversial comments. What do you think of the headliners and are you excited for the festival?
Should be a fun show for those not interested in F1
Allison Wonderland and Seven Lions are pretty big in the EDM community. Not as big as Tiesto, Steve Aoki, or John Summit, but they put on good shows.
Saying _F_ America is a great move for career rehabilitation!
Macklemore also donated money to Hamas.
Meh
Wow! The Eagles and “Hotel California” Eagles’ classic for all time
October 12th!!! I go to Vegas a lot and I've seen several Eagles concerts, but this trip was specifically to see the Eagles at the Sphere! Should be awesome.
Have a great trip!
Awesome - enjoy your trip!
Years ago I stayed at OYO when it was Hooters and the room Do Not Disturb sign said. NO. KNOCKERS. I still have it
😂😂😂
Haha. Classic.
Those were the best!
Thank you to our co-hosts for this fun segment.
Thanks for that shout out Mark! That made me laugh pretty good. " I am the James in vegas thats not THE JAMES IN VEGAS LOL. ❤ The show guys.
Hey James!
Thanks for all the photos lately!
@@Milestomemories hello! 😄
I've been following Vintage Las Vegas on IG and that flyover footage of the Strip looked so cool. It's just weird seeing how the Strip looked back in the late 80s.
So weird yet so familiar. I love the aerial perspective too.
The strip in 1988 was sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much better than today! And if you gambled just a few hundred dollars you would NEVER have to pay for a room.
Personally I love to hear EVERYTHING regarding Vegas. Forget the negative key warriors 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Allison Wonderland and Seven Lions are pretty big in the EDM community. Not as big as Tiesto, Steve Aoki, or John Summit, but they put on good shows.
Was here to say the same thing
Paris connector feels like the skyway between MGM signature and the Grand.
Haha yeah. The endless tunnel.
I have a slide (positive, not negative) of downtown from that era showing Th Mint all lighted up. Fabulous
Loved Vegas in 89. You could walk on the streets and there would be gaps between the properties
light shows in the tunnels, I feel a seizure coming on just thinking about it!
In the fly over video, the words Circus-Circus on the side of the hotel flashed alternately. Now the lights are stationary. It's a small detail but I liked it much better then!

The MTM Vegas Arena would be amazing! It would be fantastic to see Criss Angel there cleaning restrooms.
Haha
Good job guys
Thank you!
Thanks!
No eff'n way!! Chris looked like he was wearing a Halloween costume.
Can't believe the lead singer of COLDPLAY was goofing around karaoke here!!
Too cool.
I saw Coldplay in England at Glastonbury......
They were absolutely
I n c r e d I b l e
I bought a pachinko machine During the craze in the 70s I loved it
The one thing I took away from the fly over. No circles on Fremont street.
Those Mirage tables would probably hold their value over time as limited edition collectors items
I was looking forward to trying Oceans this summer when I stayed at the Elara. Every time I went there the line up was insane so I went somewhere else 🤷🏻♀️
Loved 1988 Vegas!
Glad Ocean One survived. They had cheap food and drink specials but you usually had to buy a couple alcoholic drinks to get two free, so you ended up drinking 4 big cocktails with your meal. 😊😊
In the Late 70’s, where Mirage would eventually be located was a circuit race track…..
Sorry, that is where the Castaways stood until 1987 when Steve Wynn Purchased it for the future Mirage site. The race track was next to Caesars parking lot.
@@carlblumenstock338 You are correct. Thank you
Replacing your dining room table for a blackjack table might ruffle a few feathers.
Long time viewer and patreon member ….Mark don’t talk about my precious Panthers 😂😂😂
It was a good day for Panthers fans!
@@Milestomemories such a rarity I’ll take it :)
@@UnfilteredID much deserved win for the fans! I remember the glory days of Jake Delhomme and Muhammad!
On that 1988 video, did you see on the left the Mirage? The building was up but the volcano wasn't even built yet. Don Henley has been pulling the Millie Vanille special lately. Gotta make sure this is legit
They should get Coldplay in the Sphere
Would be a big one for sure
Have Eagles tickets for the 11th and the Raiders game that weekend. Adams was fine but the QB situation kind of sucks
"Did you see the perpatrator ma'am?" "Yes, sir. It was Chuck from Indiana, I'd know him anywhere."
😆
Respect!: "If you can make money, make money"
All the Oceans One's in South Florida closed down over night about 6 mont6hs ago
Chuck from Indian would not wear that wig. The view out the window at the end of that new hallway from the Horseshoe to the Paris, overlooking a roof, is MUCH better than the view from my room at Paris over Christmas. LOLOL. I booked through a third party... go me.

Mark, during prohibition my great uncle ran a speakeasy in Detroit
That is awesome. I wonder if the building is still around.
Motel 6 can be ok, I used to work for a cheap employer that put the travelling employees in zero star motels so sometimes it would be motel 6s and some were ok, some not so good.
"Zero star motels" 🤣🤣
that made me laugh so hard
The karaoke singer and Mark look like twins..uncanny
Word on the street is that Macklemore has been replaced with Benjamin Haggerty . . .
I hope this Neon festival kicks the @$$ of F1! I wasn't willing to leave Summerlin last year on F1 weekend, but I'm absolutely going to support this Festival downtown and say FU to F1
I hope it is successful and they keep doing it each year for anyone that doesn't care about the race.

Would love to see a Dotty's mega resort/casino (iykyk)
The question is how many themes would they have under one roof!
@@Milestomemories all of the themes
They own the Laughlin river lodge too.
Absolutely make money! 🤑
I like the new Rio more and more. Please, no stadiums there. That would seriously ruin everything. Sorry Mark.
Fair point
Alison Wonderland and Seven Lions are HUGE in the EDM world......... They wont have enough room
Interesting didn’t realize that. Should work out good then!
Poor design on that walkway, looks like a maze
Bally’s the right name, you mean the MGM Grand😂. Showing my age…
I would so like to know more about Pachinko… Apparently in 2015 the Pachinko industry generated more revenue than all of Las Vegas, Macau and Singapore combined…. Yet the Las Vegas strip doesn’t have a single machine……????
Interesting - you would think someone would give it a try.

Man that sucks - sorry to hear it
Mirage tables! I can do short pay games at home!
I dont know how Ocean One can be making any money with those prices I always assumed it was a front for a criminal organization 😅
Also imagine caring about Macklemore in 2024. lol
When a restaurant can't afford to pay their rent you have to wonder what cut backs they are making in the kitchen...
True
Well you can scratch Macklemore off that Neon Festival line up. He dropped a F**k America comment and was shown the exit.
Go Chuck!!
Chuck is the best!
Bonaza was already there
Raiders have been dysfunctional for a long time.
SPOILER ALERT no Criss Angel or Papagiorgio references. Also P Diddy’s baby oil is the name of my fantasy football team 😂
Lmao! Offshoot, but the thought of a Baby Oilers jersey has me cracking up 😂
Haha
What a name!
Where can you go look at those Mirage gaming tables?
Singer Don Henley was being accused of Lip Sycing earlier in the year. Is he now singing at the Sphere?
Mark are you buying the craps table from Mirage?
A new restaurant on the corner of my neighborhood KHOI, a pho spin off, has a silver and a red cyber truck. They are so ugly 😅😅😅😅
Go Chuck!!!
Chuck is legendary
It was better then
Neon Trees played before thirty people at my local record store this month. Macklemore is a POS.🇺🇲
oooh that's cool!
If you can make money, make money...cue the Patreon grift! Just kidding, I'm a Patreon subscriber.
It will be unpopular probably, but I'd like to see the Arena somewhere between Jean and Primm. You've got the secondary airport coming in there.

Connect Brightline and Loop lines out there. A sky gondola thing, like the one I sent you from Mexico would be awesome and a draw too!
It will be interesting to see how that area grows once the airport happens
Mark doesn't look like someone who would iron his clothes . . .
back in my corporate days I did haha
We’re guests made to “leap” before the towers’ connector?
Chris Martin is awesome would love to have been tgere
Don’t worry, the Raiders play the Browns on Sunday.
Whoever gets to 9 first wins!
When celebrities are in "costume" to avoid being recognized they are always in the worst, cheapest wig. They want to be found out.
I dunno man, when's the last time you walked the strip?
a lot of cheap wigs, flip-flops, funky peeps down there makin up a percent
😆
It’s been long years to bring the NBA expansion team in Las Vegas starting 2025-26, 2026-27 or 2027-28 season?
Your thoughts?
Oyo's are filthy bedbug hellholes. Poor, poor Motel 6. :( I would rather sleep on a concrete bench that people wait for their Ubers at.
No turn tables in the tunnel please, less to break down under ground. IJS
As far as bands at the sphere are concerned, two words: Pink Floyd
Would be epic
When you add little video segments could you please record horizontally. Everything else is in a 16.9 aspect ratio just try to stay consistent please
Not all of it is our video so we have to use what we can get to show it.
I don't see why football players should be criticized for trying to avoid injuries. The most important ability is availability.
Chuck from Indiana disagrees!
"The most important ability is availability"
Damn that's a good one! 👍🏼
The sports site on the Strip is the dumbest idea I’ve heard in a while
Don’t need the Formula One disruption
I wonder if Rio gets build for NBA does the all net plan shift to MLB and have the A’s build their stadium there instead.
Those stupid Tesla tunnels are such a waste of money. Not surprised if I tab just a way to launder some money or something lol it would be great if all that investment/infrastructure was instead used for actual mass transit

You guys should do only one show a week. Not enough truly interesting things in the show.
Basements in Vegas? Why is he on this channel?!?!?
There are homes with basements in Vegas.
And they are extremely rare. Once again, the point is missed, too subtle I guess. Why is someone from Michigan telling me about a city I've lived in for 30 years.
@@williamgormley2447 because over half the people that watch are tourists so why wouldn't we have a tourist's perspective?
Tourist indeed.
@@williamgormley2447 yup - just as is the majority of our viewers. Not sure why that bothers you so much but hope you have a great weekend anyway!
Also f the NBA if they expand to this shit hole of a city. NBA needs LESS TEAMS not more.
It’s always sad hearing grown men talk about needing their wives’ “permission” to do something.
* men JOKING about needing their wives’ permission.
“Joking”, sure. Because I’m sure if you actually made a major purchase without the wife’s ‘permission’, it’d go over real well.
You mean, something like when they want to resume dating???
F the raiders and F Mark Davis. Go back to Oakland.
Imagine being psyched about the eagles in 2024. Freaking boomers.
