A tale of two divas

Img_5984resized One gets great reviews. The other sells records. Guess which matters in Vegas? The new Vegas likes to see itself as a bit more happening than the town's reality justifies.
Saturday night was a good example.

Both Celine Dion and Bjork played significant shows in Vegas on Saturday night.

Celine Dion played her final show in Vegas. Selling out the 4,000 available tickets for her 717th performance at Caesars  was a given: The only question was what the high bid would be on EBay.
Meanwhile, at the Palms, Bjork played her first concert ever in Vegas and she sold only half that number of tickets (with hundreds of tickets left unsold) to her Vegas debut.

Cha-ching! Canadian duo pulls out of Vegas with $400 million in concert sales marketing nothing but cheep and cheesy music! Good thing there are so many addicts of various types in Las Vegas. See ya' suckers. Enjoy the credit crunch!

I think that the people can distinguish the quality that offers Celine in contrast with Bjork. Personally I prefer seeing to Celine.
