Official "Going to Vegas in..." Vol. II "It was time"

Excited for EDC in June. Hopefully see some of y'all there lol

And will be bringing $1K to play in casinos that weekend lol
 
Looking to do a guys trip for MDW. Probably going to get rooms with two beds to save $ and hopefully get rooms side by side. Maybe 6-8 of us. What's y'alls go to for booking flights+hotels deals? 

We would be looking to get a hotel near center strip. I've done Linq before which had a decent adult pool area. Our move was playing volleyball (well just us in a big circle and hitting a beach ball around lol) and we'd ask random groups of girls to join. It was a surprisingly easy way to get women to engage in small talk.

This has been my go to site for years.  http://www.biddingfortravel.com/

4 and 5 star hotels for the low!  Just read the instructions.  I got the Palazzo for $138 per night (before fees).  Just read the instructions so you don't fk up and end up getting a sh*tty hotel.  If you need help understanding what to do, let me know.

Mirage for sure

Prices look surprisingly decent considering the weekend, now the question i really have is how much are they charging to get into clubs on that Weekend. NYC is usually a place where people escape on MDW & clubs out here still be taxing.

Tables make it MUCH easier to pull. Security literally brings us girls.

Ecook or anyone, if its not too much ask, how about updating this "Vegas Virgin" post from page 1, since it was posted back in 2013:



Let's have the first page be mostly info for the Vegas virgins.

In terms of summit for July 13-15 it is:

Mr Jordan 04 (only there til Sat night)
Youngdoc
DMBRHS
Mr J 88
TennHouse2
Me

Tee Aye Ahm is a maybe.

We have BS specials setup, it shall be epic.








Here is a post from JC on which nights to hit which clubs;

This question comes up all the time, so I thought I would list out my suggestions based on type of music preferred and by night (roughly in order from left to right).

Here are some examples on how to use the list. Assuming that you want open format music only:

you are only in Vegas on Tuesday. My picks for you would be:
1. 1OAK @ Mirage, 2. Hyde @ Bellagio, 3. Pure @ Caesar’s
you are in Vegas from Tuesday to Friday. My picks for you would be:
Tuesday Hyde, Wednesday Chateau, Thursday Tryst, Friday 1OAK or Tuesday 1OAK, Wednesday Chateau, Thursday Haze, Friday Tryst (i.e. these lineups avoid a double-up of 1OAK on Tuesday and Friday, even though it is the best spot for open format on both these nights)
you are only in Vegas on Friday. My picks for you would be:
1. 1OAK, 2. Tryst, 3. Haze, 4. Tao, 5. Bellagio, 6. Pure
you are only in Vegas on Saturday. My picks for you would be:
1. 1OAK, 2. Tryst, 3. Haze, 4. Tao, 5. Bellagio, 6. Pure (which is identical to the above)
you are in Vegas on Friday and Saturday. My picks for you would be:
Friday Tryst, Saturday 1OAK (even though 1OAK is my first pick for both nights, you should aim for some variety)


I want only open format (i.e. hiphop/top40)

Friday – 1OAK @ Mirage, Tryst @ Wynn, Haze @ Aria, Tao @ Venetian, Hyde @ Bellagio, Pure @ Caesar’s
Saturday – 1OAK @ Mirage, Tryst @ Wynn, Haze @ Aria, Tao @ Venetian, Hyde @ Bellagio, Pure @ Caesar’s
Sunday – Bank @ Bellagio, Lavo @ Palazzo, Vanity @ Hard Rock
Monday – XS @ Encore (sometimes has Diplo, Redfoo), Marquee @ Cosmopolitan (sometimes have open format DJs)
Tuesday – 1OAK @ Mirage, Hyde @ Bellagio, Pure @ Caesar’s
Wednesday – Chateau @ Paris, Lavo @ Palazzo (hiphop Wednesdays), Ghostbar @ Palms, LAX @ Luxor
Thursday – Tryst @ Wynn, Haze @ Aria, Tao @ Venetian, 1OAK @ Mirage

ocam's suggested itinerary without double-ups:
Friday - Tryst @ Wynn
Saturday - 1OAK @ Mirage
Sunday - Bank @ Bellagio
Monday - XS @ Encore
Tuesday - Hyde @ Bellagio
Wednesday - Chateau @ Paris
Thursday - Haze @ Aria

I want only electronic music

Friday – Light @ Mandalay Bay, Hakkasan @ MGM, XS @ Encore, Marquee @ Cosmopolitan, Surrender @ Encore
Saturday – Light @ Mandalay Bay, Hakkasan @ MGM, XS @ Encore, Marquee @ Cosmopolitan, Surrender @ Encore
Sunday – XS (especially if it is XS Nightswim), Light @ Mandalay Bay, Hakkasan @ MGM, Body English @ Hard Rock
Monday – XS @ Encore, Marquee @ Cosmopolitan
Tuesday – Lavo @ Palazzo
Wednesday – Eclipse @ Mandalay Bay, Surrender @ Encore, The Act @ Palazzo
Thursday – Hakkasan @ MGM, Tryst @ Wynn, Tao @ Venetian

ocam's suggested itinerary without double-ups:

Friday - Hakkasan @ MGM
Saturday - Light @ Mandalay Bay
Sunday - XS @ Encore
Monday - Marquee @ Cosmopolitan
Tuesday - Lavo @ Palazzo
Wednesday - Surrender @ Encore
Thursday - Tryst @ Wynn
(or swap around XS/Light/Hakkasan based on your DJ preference)

If you want mainly (but not all) EDM, then do 1OAK @ Mirage on Tuesday for a change of pace.

I want mainly open format

Friday – 1OAK @ Mirage, Tryst @ Wynn, anywhere else
Saturday – 1OAK @ Mirage, Tryst @ Wynn, anywhere else
Sunday – Bank @ Bellagio, XS @ Encore, Hakkasan @ MGM, Lavo @ Palazzo, Vanity @ Hard Rock
Monday – XS @ Encore, Marquee @ Cosmopolitan
Tuesday – 1OAK @ Mirage, Hyde @ Bellagio, Pure @ Caesar’s
Wednesday – Eclipse @ Mandalay Bay, Surrender @ Encore, The Act @ Palazzo, Chateau @ Paris, Lavo @ Palazzo, Ghostbar @ Palms, LAX @ Luxor
Thursday – Hakkasan @ MGM, Tryst @ Wynn, Haze @ Aria, Tao @ Venetian, 1OAK @ Mirage

ocam's suggested itinerary without double-ups:
Friday - Tryst @ Wynn
Saturday - 1OAK @ Mirage
Sunday - Bank @ Bellagio
Monday - XS @ Encore
Tuesday - Hyde @ Bellagio
Wednesday - Surrender @ Encore
Thursday - Hakkasan @ MGM or Haze @ Aria







If anyone needs help planning a trip or whatever, feel free to PM. I have plugs at top spots like XS, Tao, Marquee etc etc. Hooked a few nters up with cheap BS.

Just ordered a waterproof case for my cell.  Will get some pics at the beach parties for you guys.  If anyone else who's going between now mid April could do the same it would be much appreciated.

SBE acquiring Hakkasan. That's big news. Wonder what will happen to the branding on the clubs? The Hak name is toxic now.
 
Going to Vegas April 22-24, staying at the Cromwell. Will hit up Drai's for Big Sean on Saturday night, but what to do on Sunday (no EDM :lol:)
 
Went to see TI @ Drai's this past Friday night. Got free cover through compguestlist.com so I ended up saving $80+ which was in turn spent on drinks for the night

Didn't hit a club on Saturday, just played craps all night and ended up watching The Beatles Love show @ the Mirage. 

Food wise: ate at secret pizza late Thursday night/Friday AM after landing. Hexx for brunch on Friday morning (definitely #1 breakfast/brunch spot for me now), then ate a quick late dinner at Grand Lux Cafe in the Venetian before pregaming for Drai's. Saturday didn't get up until like 12:30 and headed over towards PH which took forever because all the detours (a few blocks of the strip were shut down due to a shooting).. Ended up eating at Gordon Ramsay Burgr (truffle burger and sweet potato fries). Good food there, but Holsteins >>> Burgr. Had dinner at Scarpetta Saturday night, second time eating there and the food/view/service is great.

Had time to kill before my flight so I decided to check out the Linq. It was so lame.

Linq casino is 99% garbage. I stayed at the hotel twice because it was cheap. The pool can get lightweight crackin on Fridays and Saturdays during the Summer, but other than that there's nothing to do there. O'Shea's (the little Irish bar connected to the Linq) is usually poppin if you're into that scene. Always see a bunch of wasted snow bunnies in there playing beer pong when I pass through
