From the moment you are greeted at the theatre by Swinging London characters—bobbies and dolly birds—to the sounds of “Hello Goodbye” or “Good Morning, Good Morning,” you know that The Beatles LOVE is not going to be just another stage show. Or even another Cirque du Soleil extravagance. Because this stage spectacle (and it really does deserve that lofty title) is not just another tribute show to the music of the Fab Four.

You’re in Las Vegas, Entertainment Capital of the World, and you want to see something, you know…entertaining! But if country and pop stars like Shania, Faith and Tim, Rod and Celine aren’t your thing, or you’re not in the mood for Cirque du Soleil, it may seem like options are limited.

Not so. There are an incredible variety of regular performers in Las Vegas shows on the Strip for almost any taste.

It’s Friday night. It’s Vegas. The night belongs to you and it’s go time. Hyde Bellagio is the destination, maybe one of the best kept secrets in the world of Las Vegas Nightclubs, if such a thing is possible. The great thing about Hyde, run by the SLS team from LA, is that it’s not another one of these gargantuan thunderdomes with a hundred rooms, three floors, and still nowhere to stand.

Adult shows were once the norm in Las Vegas but times have changed and these days most shows seem so tame that you could possibly see them with your children or feel ok sitting next to your grandmother when the curtain comes up.

However, there are a couple that require discretion and are perfect for the couple wanting to explore their risky side or for the group of open minded individuals looking for some adult entertainment or a chance to laugh at some of those subjects that often are considered off limits.

Tap. Tap. Snap. Snap. Boom. Boom. Crash. Crash.

Can you repeat that?

Do you want to repeat that?

You will.

You'll raise your hands for no apparent reason and you'll practice those beat box sounds that you had long abandoned. You might squirm in your seat with a need to feel the rhythm. You'll wiggle your toes as you whistle and you'll consider experimenting with paint, PVC pipe and drum sticks.

My back swing is perfect. My follow through reminds other players of Tiger Woods. I have shiny golf clubs and plenty of balls in my bag. My only problem is that when I hit the ball I have no idea where it is headed. I can hit the ball a long way, there is no question about that, it's just that 300 yards to the right means very little when you need to hit the ball to the center.

New year. Day one. Get started.

If your head is a bit foggy this morning that's probably because you had a good night. It's a new year so don't waste any time and start having some fun.

You need a plan to get you through day one of new resolutions and some lame statements you might have made last night that centered around working harder, being more serious and taking control of your life. Don't fret, we all do that when faced with counting down the end of a year while looking at a pair of lips that are begging for the New Year's kiss.

You have waited for this all year. You are in Las Vegas and you just want the party to start. You want this weekend to be the best weekend ever. You have scoured through all the research and all you want to do is start.

So start!

You should have a few Las Vegas nightclubs on your list in order to make sure the entire weekend goes perfect. A few of my choices to make sure the party goes deep into the evening and into the next morning:

How do you feel about sock puppets?

How comfortable are you with really good looking guys with tremendous physiques balancing themselves within close proximity of each other and you?

Do you offend easily?

Would you kiss a stranger?

Ever have to wash out your mouth with soap?

Good.

Right before you feel the tug of 2013 pull you and lead you to broken resolutions and New Year's day regrets you must contend with New Year's Eve in Las Vegas.

Take a deep breath, feel the stress leave your shoulders and realize that we have got you covered. You'll be prepared to handle the Las Vegas strip and the potential for the best New Year’s Eve party you have ever experienced. You have four days to shake off the regrets of 2012 and embrace the hope of 2013. That's right, Vegas requires an entire weekend to say goodbye to the past year and enable you to greet 2013.
