Viva Elvis! Viva Ann-Margret! Viva TCBCast! The conclusion of our review of 1964's Viva Las Vegas is here, featuring Ryan Droste! We discuss our takes on director George Sidney, Col. Parker's interference with production, and muses before diving into Song of the Week, in which all three decades of Elvis' career are featured as Ryan heads down the bayou to find some "crawfish," Gurdip "slowly but surely" makes his way to the 60s, and Justin "just pretends" a 1970 recording was a bigger hit than it really was. Featured Songs of the Week: Gurdip: Slowly But Surely Justin: Just Pretend Ryan: Crawfish

What's the opposite of Viva? This week, Justin & Gurdip take a look at where the ironically short-lived 2010 Cirque production "Viva Elvis" went awry and where it succeeded. Justin makes an important correction regarding the newly discovered army home recordings, and for Song of the Week, Gurdip highlights an obscure but upbeat 60s movie tune while Justin quits his job down at the car wash and leaves his mama a goodbye note. Featured Songs of the Week: Gurdip: I'll Take Love Justin: Guitar Man

Calling Beatles LOVE by Cirque Du Soleil the best show in Vegas is a bit misleading because it implies two things. First, that its supremacy is even up for debate and second, that this statement could in someway be an opinion. Beatles LOVE is neither. The only item that could be mused about, for entertainment purposes only, mind you, is whether or not it is the greatest show in the history of ever.  I would reiterate that the answer is clearly yes but to do so would be tantamount to calling you an idiot and we don't have idiots that listen to our show. Or at least, you demonstrate your willingness to be less of an idiot by listening to this show.  So now that that is out of the way, lets proceed. Cirques 5th show in the Vegas market and their first using music from an individual artist showcasing their catalog and in some cases, their history, setup shop at the Mirage in 2009 and was an instant success.  So much so that it became the template for every cirque show that came after it until the touring show Zarkana replaced the failed Viva Elvis show.  The show is in the round, complete with sensory immersion from the speakers in the seats head rests to video screen to the stage that transforms right in front of you during the show.  It’s an experience be had from the die hard to the most casual Beatles fan.

Viva Elvis (Costello)

After Cirque created Beatles LOVE, a tremendous commercial and critical success, dreamers wondered aloud, what would other shows based on musical artists be like.  After the failure of Viva Elvis, many thought Cirque had caught lightening in a bottle with LOVE and questioned, not only could they do another musical artist, but should they.

Viva Elvis!

What's it like to host the president in your home? What's it like to play the piano for the president at his home, that big white mansion in Washington D.C.? We're about to answer both those questions, Vegas style. Palms owner George Maloof explains how he came to know President Obama and describes the hoopla around hosting him Thursday night for a Democratic fundraiser. Then Bellagio's pianist David Osbourne talks about performing for six U.S. presidents including the last three at the White House. And while presidents are interesting, Osbourne's story about the last vice president, Dick Cheney, is particularly bizarre.In Banter: Harrah's gets P-Ho, Vegas gets Obama love, CityCenter does NOT get Obama love, another Lake Las Vegas closure, Chinese New Year is fun, the Viva Elvis party was not fun and why red ketchup is the new blue tape.Email: TheStripPodcast@aol.comVoicemail: 702-997-3300Web: TheStripPodcast.ComBlog: VegasHappensHere.ComTwitter: @TheStripPodcast

The head-scratching and bellyaching began way, way back in 2003 with Zumanity. Then came Ka, Love and Criss Angel Believe. But despite naysayers who think Cirque du Soleil is overextended in Las Vegas, here comes show No. 7, Viva Elvis at Aria, officially opening on Feb. 19. What's the deal? Steve sat down in Montreal last month with Cirque CEO Daniel Lamarre, who says he wouldn't mind having 50 shows on the Strip, if only they had the time and available showrooms. But the company is busy elsewhere these days, planning permanent productions at Radio City Music Hall and the Kodak Theatre, not to mention trying to fix the disastrous Criss Angel show at the Luxor.In Banter: Aria room rates falling some more, Super Bowl weekend is up, Obama steps in Vegas poop again and Bill Clinton is a headliner.Web: TheStripPodcast.ComEmail: TheStripPodcast@aol.comVoicemail": 206-424-4737Blog: VegasHappensHere.ComTwitter: @TheStripPodcast

Could there be a better way to kick off a new year than with Mr. Las Vegas himself, Mr. Wayne Newton? The Wayner needs little introduction, so let's just say that you're about to hear the answer to all your questions including whether he's had plastic surgery, what he thinks about his weathered voice and much more. Newton, who is performing at the Tropicana at least through April, also addresses his Norm Clarke plagiarism flap, explains how he recovers memorabilia stolen regularly from his Vegas home and for the first time ever reveals the scene from Vegas Vacation that he had nixed. Plus, is his Trop show profitable? What does he think of others who call themselves Mr. Las Vegas? Why doesnt' he want to see Viva Elvis? What was it like to meet Howard Hughes? And much more.In Banter: Garth's amazing NYE on the Strip, Zowie Bowie's partial demise and more.Web: TheStripPodcast.ComE-mail: TheStripPodcast@aol.comTwitter: @TheStripPodcastBlog: VegasHappensHere.comVoicemail: 206-424-4737
