Las Vegas shows - November, 2013

[Jim M.]

The show was great.  
Mairead Carlin was great.
Lisa and Susan were great.  Those 3 ladies can REALLY sing!
Mairead Nesbitt was perfect, as usual.
The M&G was pre-show with all 4 ladies.
David, Tommy, Andy, Anthony, and John Page were also part of the show.
Others are working on more complete reviews.  I am going to sleep.

So wish I was there!!!

Another great show tonight. 
Tommy was not there -- we heard he may have been ill.
Programs were available.  They are very nice.  ($15 each)
Met Mairead Carlin's parents after the show.  Very nice couple.
Then Mairead appeared from backstage and spent a few minutes visiting with fans.
She's a very nice, very talented young lady.  
Another great selection by David.

Jim, were the M&G's a part of the original ticket package or something you found out about later? 

Mairead C. sounds like a delight, as they all are.

[Jim M.]

M&G came with VIP tickets -- 34 people per night.  I bought MrPeabody's extras.  We were all in the front row, too.

Yes, Mairead Carlin is a wonderful addition to CW.

The Venetian had their photographer take the photos for the Saturday M&G.  We used our own cameras on Friday.
Here are the Sat. photos:  www.venetianteam.com

Thanks, Jim. 

Not sure what we'll be getting.  Our last M&G was a pre-show event also, photos only, citing time constraints.  We had a couple of unhappy campers who were looking forward to autographs, meeting the girls, etc.  Did you guys get an opportunity for a true M&G?  If not, I hope this is not a trend.

[Jim M.]

Friday was our cameras, photos permitted while waiting in line, too, so I got several nice pictures.

Saturday it was their camera only, no personal cameras allowed to take ANY photos. 

No autographs allowed -- ladies came into room late both nights (about 7:35) so it was a very quick M&G.  Shows were at 8pm with M&G over at about 7:50.  Show opened with Polar Express so ladies and David were not on stage.

Another great show tonight.  
Lisa, Susan and the Maireads were all great again.
Tommy has returned home due to illness, so Ms. Nesbitt had a little extra work tonight, playing her violin at times when Tommy would have played his pipes.
One more show here tomorrow night before they head east.
M&G tonight was with the Venetian's photographer taking photos again.
The same link as before will get you tonight's M&G photos.

Thanksgiving night show was like the rest - GREAT!
M&G was with their man taking photos - link now has pics from last 3 M&Gs.
Saw the girls, David, John, Anthony and Andy after the show, but little time to visit as they were packing to head east.
Just had enough time to thank them and wish them safe travels.
4 shows in 7 days - WHEW!

And, for those wondering what the new Mairead is like -- well, you will be very happy with her.
Some of those high notes ....
And plenty of power.  She's a keeper.
There are more detailed reviews on the Mairead Nesbitt Forum.

Thanks Jim - sounds like an absolutely perfect way to spend a week.   

Can't wait to see for myself. Less than a month now.   

[Jim M.]

I hope you have a great time.
