Sooo apparently my stepdad wants to stay at the Golden Nugget. I told him he's either going to have to pay my cab fare to the strip, or let me stay on it. Haha.

I really don't like gambling, and that's all he goes for. Thank you guys for all the suggestions!

Heres the thing, as for clubs, they are closed like Monday through Thursday. Some random ones are open Thursday nights, otherwise they are pretty much open Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings. I think my friend and I saw some open on Wednesday's but we left Wednesday morning.

Let's see, I've stayed at Excalibur, Luxor, Tropicana, NY NY & Aladdin (soon to be Planet Hollywood). I definately liked staying at the Aladdin best because it was in the middle of the strip.

Also, get a bus pass. They (LV) now has a bus (can't think of the name) that runs strictly up and down the strip. The busses come like every 10-15 minutes. A 24 hour pass is 5 bucks, each individual ride (one-way) 2 bucks. Get the pass.

I've heard great things about Rain (but it was closed when I was last there). My friend and I went to Chippendales. Great fun for girls. I've heard Thunder Down Under is pretty good too.

Shows, well I saw Phantom when I was there last. Love it (seen it way to many times) but expensive. If you are a trekkie, the Star Trek Experience at the Hilton isn't bad, although I would just recommend The Klingon Encounter (it's like a star tours esque ride but you get to walk through the Enterprise D first). The Borg Experience is just okay. It's fun watching the actors.

There is a place on the strip where you can get half price tickets, I would totally recommend that.

Eating, go to Margaritaville, that is a fun place.

My brain can't think of anymore right now, but later.

they are definitely not closed monday through thursday. in fact - those are probably some of the best nights to go out. on monday, theres at least 3 clubs open, tuesday you can go to pure, wednesday theres another 3 open and thursday is the start of our "weekend" out here.
so, pretty basically, you can go out any night of the week. living here, i hate going out on friday and saturday nights because its so damn busy.

as for staying places - the MGM usually has really good deals on rooms, and its in the middle sort of...
caesers has nice rooms too.. so does the wynn but i dont know how much youre looking to spend. nor what days youre coming and for how long.

as for staying in the hotel with the club you want to go to - it doesnt really matter. if youre a bunch of girls, chances are you'll get in anywhere right away. put yourself on a list somewhere that you want to go. if you need numbers or anything to clubs or whatever - PM me, i can get you names and numbers to VIP hosts and/or guestlists.

a few weeks ago my roommates and i stayed at ti... we were also celebrating a 21st!

definitely see a cirque, mystere was really awesome. i wish we had enough time to see the beatles one.

ceasars definitely has the best shops and is in the middle of the strip, so that is convenient.

it sure is a long walk from ny ny to ti. and don't ask me about gambling, i had issues with putting my money in a box. my roommate did win $500 playing wheel of fortune, so that was exciting.
