Confusion: not a good state of mind, right? After a few bevvies, the Strip can be a confusing place, and now it might be getting even more confusing with the advent of Vegas! The Show, which finally opens tomorrow.

We’ve been getting all excited about the show for a while now (showgirls! Glitter! Paul Verhoeven fantasies!) although slightly worried about the size of the Saxe Theater for such shenanigans and the fact that its opening date has already been postponed. Twice.

So, as we were perusing Houseseats last night to decide which shows we would see this weekend, when we saw “Vegas the Show” we got all excited. Tickets to the opening night! Break out the feather boa!

But when we clicked to get our tickets, it flagged up this little warning:

PLEASE NOTE: there are 2 shows here in Las Vegas bearing the name “Vegas The Show”. Please be sure to read the information regarding the venue of this show.”

Oh. Sure enough, it was the one on Fremont Street. Bugger.

Anyway, the moral of the tale is: check which one you’re booking for, because we don’t think the Fremont Street one has as many feathers ‘n’ that. Plus the storyline runs into the future up to 2050, and that sounds a bit crap.

As it happens, we’re going to catch the dress rehearsal for the Miracle Mile show tonight, so we’ll be sure to let you know what to expect from the Saxe lot on Monday. If you be so minded, follow us on Twitter and we might just do some ruminating on it tonight mid-show. If we drop by the Stripper Bar first, we might even start channeling Cristal Connors.
