  • opinions on may 9-13th plans

    We're landing at 940p Saturday and it's my friend's first time in Vegas. Opinions on what I'm thinking?

    Nights:
    Sat: Nervo at Omnia
    Sun: Eva Shaw at Hak
    Mon: Flosstradamus at XS
    Tues: Sidney Sampson at Drais Yacht Club (I'm to understand that this is a pool party, right? I'm skipping Sun night swim to do Tuesday here.)

    Alternatively,
    Sat: A&B at Hak
    Sun: Sun night swim
    Mon: Marquee
    Tues: Chuckie at Omnia

    Days:
    Sunday day: Lema at MDC or Guetta EBC. I like EBC more, but I've seen David Guetta 50 million times is seems.
    Mon & Tues: hotel pool & walk the strip
    Upcoming trips:
    2014: February 17-20, EDC/June 18-23, September
    2013: April 26-30, MDW May, EDC/June 21-25, Birthday trip/July 19-22, Halloween Oct 25-29

    2011: May 11-15, July 9th-13th, Sept 14th-18th, Halloween 10/28-11/1, Dec 9th-13th

    First trip: August 2006

    Yes Drais Yacht Club on Tuesday is a pool party in the same mold as Nightswim. I haven't been to Yacht Club so can't comment on how good it is, but I like Drais on a regular night.

    The Nightswim dilemma is always my groups frustration when planning. We all LOVE nightswim, but at the same time we like to try different places as well. Good thing about Vegas is you can't really go wrong either way!

      I probably (marginally) prefer Plan B
      EastCoast: "I will preach. Vegas is easy. So easy. Either be rich or good looking (or mooch off someone who is one of those). If you are neither, then sit back, let the rich and/or good looking people sort their shit out, and then take their scraps. Booking early is not going to get you ahead of the rich and/or good looking people. Sucks unless you are rich or good looking. But that's what makes Vegas so great. It is completely transparent."

          +1 agree
          gotta do the new club Omnia
          cant compare XS nightswim with anything
          and why not 1OAK on Tuesday to seal ur Vegas Virgins with a Hip/Hop refresher after a wknd of EDM?

              I wasn't a fan of Nervo last time at Omnia. I'd go with all your alternates, especially if your group is more into hip-hop.

                What was wrong with Nervo at Omnia? The set wasn't good? Energy wasn't there? I really wanted to check out Omnia.

                I'm definitely not more into hip-hop. I didn't really like 1oak last time I was there, but she did ask me about it. I was trying to bring her to different places, but if we do Sunday night swim well probably end up back at XS Monday because I'd rather see flosstradamus than go to Marquee. At least it'll be completely different experiences. I think Sun night swim is fun, and after my first time there i thought it was the greatest thing ever, but each and every time it's 45-60 to reach the bar (we're just 2 girls, no tables) & the staff says inappropriate things with inappropriate facial expressions. If you're working as security you shouldn't make female customers feel harassed. There's enough guys in the club for that. You're security for a reason. I ended up leaving at like 2am last time. Plus, I'm not really all that into skrillex. If it was another DJ then I'd probably be more sold on night swim. I also hate how i feel like i just always end up at XS & EBC.

                Maybe I'll change it and just skip Hak? Hak vs Omnia on Sat?
                Sat- Omnia
                Sun- XS
                Mon- XS
                Tues - Drais?

                  I saw Nervo at Hak 18 months ago and I thought they were awesome.

                    I know the feeling...I've been hittn XS, Marquee and Hakk and I have to switch it up too or its deja vu...sometimes the biggest ain't always the best

                      Just didn't seem like they were feeling the crowd much, and the set lost energy partway through. I had a dance floor table and went to hang out in Heart instead for the rest of the night. They are usually good, but this last one was a disappointment for sure. Maybe it was just an off night. For the record, it was industry night, but that shouldn't matter...

                      Then I'd avoid Chuckie on Tuesday (and Marquee on Monday for that matter - it's Eric D-Lux). If you really want to see Omnia, go Saturday and don't let my comments on Nervo turn you off.

                      Also, nothing wrong with doing Nightswim and "normal" XS two days in a row really, totally different experiences. I don't know when you saw Skrillex last, but I did see him at XS a few months ago and his set was much more mainstream than usual. Not sure if he is changing his style a bit.

                            Hakk isn't open on Tuesdays?
