The Magic of Mystere at Treasure Island
I’ve said it before - somewhere - and I’ll say it again - the blogging community rocks. Joe Morin and the great team and WebmasterWorld arranged a “Blogger’s Night Out” here at Pubcon and scored some free show tickets for us bloggerati - the only payment needed was a review of the show on our blogs - simple enough and I’d have blogged about it even if I paid for the ticket.
First things first - KUDOS to the Treasure Island crew. The letter that was with my ticket to Cirque Du Soleil’s Mystere said to be sure to tell you that TI provided the tickets at no cost and also invited us to attend and enjoy the show - making the blog post wasnt necessary. Well - I’m going to post anyway -the show was freaking amazing.
This was my first Vegas show - and simply walking into the theatre was awe inspiring. The show was freaking amazing - great acrobats, gymnasts, costumes, music, lighting - it was a complete package - the only thing I didnt truly follow was the plot….. I’m tentatively thinking the story was the dreams of a child, but that is a little fuzzy - but WHO CARES - the show is amazing and I told Mary Iwould have gladly paid $100 a ticket to see it. We had great seats and an amazing time - the show is totally worth the money. Todd (Mr. SEO Mom) is coming out to vegas for the weekend - I’m going to talk him into seeing another Cirque du Soleil show with me when he gets here - maybe Ka or Zumanity…..
So - great show, HIGHLY recommended -and kudos to TI for “getting it” and understanding that if you give something away - the return is ten-fold…a great tactic for any hospitality market!
