The online reservation system was a pain in the neck and did not work. I had to order the tickets over the phone eventually. They are lucky that I am a hard core fan of the Cirque to jump through all those hoops to get my ticket.<\/p>\n<p><b>Cirque Du Soleil &#8211; &#8220;Love&#8221; Video<\/b><br \/><center><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=d7pl-Xk7xZ4&#038;fmt=18\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.roysac.com\/blogimages\/clickhere.png\" boder=\"0\"\/><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n<p><b>What&#8217;s Left?<\/b><br \/>I tried to get a ticket for the <a href=\"http:\/\/clk.atdmt.com\/MGM\/go\/kwbngmgm0010016102mgm\/direct\/01\/?kbid=681881&#038;m=623\" target=\"_blank\">Cirque du Soleil show ??? &#8220;Zumanity&#8221;<\/a><img decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/affiliates.mgmmirage.com\/b.aspx?id=681881&#038;mm=623\"\/> at the New York, New York Hotel and Casino. Its a Cirque show with sexual flavor, but that did not work out the way I wanted it to.<\/p>\n<p>So, that means that I will not be able to see &#8220;Zumanity&#8221; when I am in Vegas. They have vacation that week(end). After &#8220;Love&#8221; will only be &#8220;Zumanity&#8221; and the new <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cirquedusoleil.com\/CirqueDuSoleil\/en\/showstickets\/kooza\/intro\/intro.htm\">Cirque show &#8220;Kooza&#8221;<\/a> be missing on my list of shows to see. Then I got them all. I booked already a ticket for Kooza, when the show will be in San Francisco, CA in November, later this year. Here is a little teaser for the new show.<\/p>\n<p><b>Cirque Du Soleil &#8211; &#8220;Kooza&#8221; Video<\/b><br \/><center><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=NYeN4njR0OY&#038;fmt=18\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.roysac.com\/blogimages\/clickhere.png\" boder=\"0\"\/><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n<p><b>Cirque Du Soleil &#8211; &#8220;Zumanity&#8221; Video (Beta*)<\/b><br \/><center><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=yHAnO38cTP4&#038;fmt=18\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.roysac.com\/blogimages\/clickhere.png\" boder=\"0\"\/><\/a><\/center><br \/>*read the video description for an explaination \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n<p>I have to see when I get to see &#8220;Zumanity&#8221;. I will be in Las Vegas the next time in September. I learned that I am going to see &#8220;Love&#8221; once more, free. I am sure that the seats will not be the best in the house. It&#8217;s a group reservation. It will be the 7:00 pm show, so I will make sure that I will get tickets for the late show of &#8220;Zumanity&#8221; for that day then. That would be it. Done before the year is over hehe.<\/p>\n<p>I hope you will enjoy the movies. They can give you a small taste of what the shows are like and might &#8220;convert&#8221; the one or the other to a Cirque evangelist :).<\/p>\n<p><b>What Will Be Left for Me to See?<\/b><br \/>Even when I saw the three shows, does it not mean that I am done.

Criss Angel is a great magician and the mix with Cirque Du Soleils greatness promisses almost certain success and a show that will be a running hit. I can&#8217;t wait to see it. Maybe I will make it one day to a Cirque premiere. That would be the coolest thing on earth.
