It's Show Biz, Babe!!!


Random's Camera

You were on your way to the CES show
But instead ended up on the CSI
In Vegas, you never know
When you’ll be caught in the camera’s eye
Las Vegas is being filmed almost nonstop
From atop the Strat and the Luxor too
You don't have to be the King of Pop
To make it on the Vegas News

While in Vegas, be prepared for a starring role
It’s Hollywood, Babe, oh yes it is
It matters not if you’re rich or on the dole
Your Show is part of the biz
Holy Toledo - put on your Tuxedo
And your Gucci shoes
Here comes Charo riding upon a torpedo
Singing her Hoochie Coochie Coos

Abracadabra

Well, I think it time I create some magic
Soon I'll be raising the wand again
The Wheel of Fortune may have Pat Sajak
But in Vegas, we have the Amazing Jonathan

You will be amazed and won't believe your eyes
Because in Vegas, there are many twists and angles
Oh, you are really in for a big surprise
when being freaked out by the likes of Chris Angel

In Las Vegas, it's much more than sleight of hand
You'll be amazed by the latest trick, this I promise
After an early lunch and a bash at the Grand
Go and check out the mastery of Rick Thomas


When I was young, I found ways to be inspired
often by looking at the life of Helen Keller
The life she led was one that I truly admired
now I think it time I tell Penn and Teller

By: R.J. Fico


This Vegas Ditty, Rap & Romp features the well-known Penn & Teller, Chris Angel and Rick Thomas who have become such a large part of Las Vegas's allure. As I had said time and time again, Las Vegas is truly magical and the acts depicted here attest mightily to this assessment. While in Vegas, do yourself a huge favor and check out a magic show or two.



Mystere-ious


I marvel at the dexterity and fortitude
of those starring in 
Mystere
An amazing triumph of humanity
to soothe both the eye and ear

Athleticism without the vanity
gets from me more than a cheer
Triumphing over the trampoline
seemingly without worry or fear

I've been known to treasure many
an 
island -both far and near
Like the splendors of nature depicted
within the theaters of
 Mystere.

 By. R. J. Fico 

Honored eight times as "Best Production Show" by the Las Vegas Review-Journal

Mystère has an international cast of 72 performers featuring dancers, singers, musicians and champion-caliber acrobats.


The Chicago Tribune called Mystère, "One of the most innovative and exciting shows to be seen anywhere" And I agree! I had seen Mystere 4 times. Please, by all means, make this show part of your Vegas itinerary.


Note: This world-famous Vegas Ditty, Rap & Romp® features Treasure Island Hotel & Casino and Mystere - a Cirque du Soleil®.production.


Do You Have The Vegas Idea?


The palace reigning imperial
housing the Studebaker and DeLorean
Not far from the Emerald
production of Kirk Kerkorian
"Lots of luck, sir!"
says the queen upon the Nile
who bears a grin when passing the gin
to the happy crowd
camped alongside the aisle

"Who wants to be a millionaire?"
says Meredith Viera
'We do," says the girls gone crazy
at the Riviera
Molded and shapely,
images do not escape me
So many memories
to help relive that era

St. Mark's Square
and at a Madame's dare
Patrons enter and cannot
believe their eyes
There is Brad, Michael
and a full-scaled Cher
and a man
focused on Marilyn's thighs

(Featuring Crazy Girls at the Riviera, Madame Tussaud's Wax Museum at the Venetian, Vintage Car Collection at the Imperial Palace)
