We
have a tie, between performers and building contractors, who has the bigger
ego? I think its building contractors, because they don’t even try to please
you, they take all your money, and they are not very entertaining.
I tell you
this because I have been meeting with pool contractors to get my pool
re-plastered, and I always thought performers were primadonnas. However, I just
met four of the nicest performers, The Stars of Magic. They are very humble,
friendly and seem to genuinely enjoy performing, happily greeting their
audience, and present a good show.
For 10
years, I longed to see The Amazing Johnathan. After waiting all this time, two
months ago I got to see him. Fifteen minutes into his show, he turned my
stomach, and I walked out. On the way out I asked the cocktail waitress if
Johnathan got any better, she said “NO”.
Most shows
in Las Vegas are around $100.00, and almost none of them are worth it. The
sidewalk outside The Amazing Johnathan showroom is dusty and dirty because of
street repair work on Harmon, inside the showroom is filthy and it stinks. You
get all this and The Amazing Johnathan for only $75.00.
For the
same money, you can take five people to The Stars of Magic, and still have
change. They only charge $12.95, and it’s over an hour long. The Royal Resort
is a nice, clean place, with a small 50-seat showroom, so you don’t miss a
trick. After the show, all four stars greeted and took pictures with the
audience.
The Stars
of Magic is well worth the price of admission; these people really want to
entertain you. Moreover, unlike Johnathan’s show, it’s not offensive, Stars of
Magic is a sweet, nice show; you can take your whole family, even the very
young.
