I was at MS on the 13th for the Rod Stewart concert. The concert was
fantastic. Rod put on a great show. He did most of his hits and some of his new (old)
numbers. The set and videos were also great. It more then made up for Sting
and Bowie who we thought sucked. If you have a chance to see him (I know he's in
Vegas next month) we strongly recommend it.

I gambled for about an hour in the high limit area and broke exactly even
(that's a big win to me) I didn't notice any change in inventory but those $5
pick-ems do get alot of play. This is the second time in a row that someone was
playing two of the $5 pick-em at the same time. I wouldn't be surprised to see
them removed or downgraded sometime soon.

O.K. Joel,

My wife left during that Rox rif. I stayed to the "encore" when he
did his best songs. Lennox looked good. Her bio says 49.
Sting's bio say 53 and he looked in top shape. Its amazing what
makeup can do for a performer. I'd say Lennox wore none and Sting
wore a lot. Both in physical good shape.
I didn't expect to see much stage peformance from Sting. Fans had
told me he doesn't do much. I did expect more from Lennox but she was
pretty good. Just comparing her to Cyndi Lauper in her mid 50's and
still climbing on top of speakers and venturing out into the audience

That's what happneded at NYNY. They had two Multi Denom PE's at the
bar. A pro (.33% cashback) played them (2 at a time) and got a royal.
That caught the attention of management - not to mention that the
cheap SOB didn't tip the attendant/bartender.
Paranoia set in and they wiped out just about anything decent.

I spend some time in that HL area and see the guys playing 2 at once.
But I also see alot of folks not playing pickem on the machines and
many regulars not playing 5 coins.
I will agree that a clump of royals there might doom them.
