Life is Beautiful - Las Vegas

[El Dingo]

Sorry for the late response but social media is not my forte.

Face-to-Face is my game as DM will attest. I followed him to the bathroom at L.i.B. I didn't go in because Security was already suspicious that I walked into a restricted area with no escort.

First off - Nacho Daddy is the bomb. They give you like 2 pounds of gourmet nachos (I had the Thai nachos with veggie chicken and peanut-curry sauce). I weigh 230 and could not finish mine. DM is still thin as a rail and cleaned his plate.

Secondly, we stayed a day later and hit Area 15 on Monday.

That place is a trip. Check out this video for a taste: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uhcNX-GWf2w

The Lost Spirits distillery is there. We took the tour for $60 (reservations required) but you get 5 shots of premium rum and brandy in themed rooms and vintage-themed shuttles to the facility. Well worth it. DOOM road trip worth it.

Thanks for the feedback on my vinyl purchases. I do have to say the Dave Davies record is one of the worst albums I have ever listened to. This from someone who loves The Kinks.

Anyway, this was our 6th L.i.B. and we will keep going till we die. We don't give a crap about the music, but the environment is like nothing else. My concern is that it's getting too big and attracting the wrong (Coachella) crowd looking for that high-energy vibe where this is used to be a mellow love-fest. It didn't help that Green Day was the biggest headliner (they were great BTW),.

Anyway, our first outing in 18 months and it was glorious.

Hooking up with DM was the unexpected cherry on the sundae.
