It is no secret that I am a big Cirque Du Soleil fan. The first show I saw was the inoffical show from Dragone called Le Reve<\/a>, which is currently shown at the Wynn Las Vegas Resort and Casino.<\/p>\n

It is to this day my favorite Cirque Show to date. I have seen all but three alright which are Zumanity, Mystere and Love. And it will be 4 shows I have not seen in April this year. Why? That’s Why<\/a>. I play again with the Idea to hop over to Montreal\/Canada on a weekend in April or May to see it. <\/p>\n

I had the ticket, opening week (day 3 or 4), last front-row seat in my basket. But it knew that I could not go, because Canada is not part of the United States (yet) and I have currently no travel documents thus can leave but not get back in to go home (It is as ridiculis as it sounds, trust me). <\/p>\n

Well things changed a bit. The situation still sucks, but it seems that I will be able to get travel documents again at the end of March, beginning of April. Mhh.. What did “The Clash” say? …. “should I stay or should I go?” <\/p>\n

I am undecided. While I am thinking about it, check out this video which I found at YouTube.com<\/a>. It uis about 9 minutes long and shows several scenes from the show. It also introduces each of the main theme songs. <\/p>\n

Did I mention that the music of Le Reve is just great and also the best from all Cirque shows in my opinion? No? Well, it is and I own the CD<\/a> (surprise), the original, not a copy. <\/p>\n

You know, the one you have to buy for money and not creditz (kudos, if you understood that one). The only other soundtrack that comes close is the one from the Cirque Du Soleil “Touring Show” called Varekai<\/a><\/p>\n

Varekai is also one of my favorite shows.<\/p>\n

Here is again the Teaser I mixed myself (Music and Video). The original video had some commentator messing the experience up, so I took the video editing software in my own hands and saved the day. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

I decided to “out” myself in public and do inventory of my cirque stuff. It is ironic that it all started with a free comp ticket to the Le Reve<\/a> show in Vegas. How much is it? About $90-$100. Great deal! Thank you. I spent more than 10 times that amount ever after. I should have paid them $100 to not to go… kidding. I have no regrets. <\/p>\n

Okay back to the CirqueFAN inventory. Let’s start with the Live Shows. I sort them by how I like them compared to the others. <\/p>\n
