George Bell , the second-tallest man in the country at 7-feet-8 inches, stopped by D Las Vegas on Saturday night. He was more popular than any A-List celebrity. A former member of the Harlem Globetrotters and now a deputy sheriff in Norfolk, Va. Incidentally, the tallest man in the U. But in this city, Bell towers above all.
It is rare that a performer sees himself or herself on video panels during a performance — those visuals are typically meant for the audience. Hynde brings abundant stage apittude and experience to any show lest we forget, the Pretenders played the US Festival in Expect Bruno Mars , too, to take note of his own-self on those towering screens on Dec.
A few additional thoughts about the opening of Park Theater: The sound was dialed in perfectly — full and lush but not too loud — and the sight lines are all unimpeded.
I had heard of complaints from the seats in the upper sections, the s, being too cramped. I have not tested those. But the lines at the concessions stands were uncommonly long though I have heard some auxiliary bars are being moved in for the Mars shows and a high-ranking exec from a competing resort company was trapped in one of those lengthy lines.
Also to be noted: One of the employee doors at the second-level concession stand, which ticket-holders pass as they head to the restrooms, swings out to the common area.
