I doubt they have a room to comp.

The $3.9 billion hotel only has 2,995 rooms.

How far away is your hotel? Have you noticed a lot of people wearing cowboy boots and hats?

I'm at the Luxor, which according to Google is 1 mile from the Cosmopolitan, but I'll be cabbing it.

I did see two or 3 cowboy hats on the flight from SF. Why do you ask? I figured that wasn't too unusual. A hotel employee mentioned something about a convention in town, but I forgot what he said it was for.

If I had money to burn, I would have stayed at the Cosmo, but that would have been $700 more, so no thnx

The National Finals Rodeo -- "the Superbowl of Rodeo"-- is being held in Las Vegas this week. Today's the first day.

^ This could have been a Tusk Stage-It production. Seriously, I would have paid $5 for a live feed of this. Tusk you may have a calling here...Live Feed Manager for Haley Productions.

Before Midnight steals this idea (couldn't help noticing the Haley Santa swipe you made ) we need a brain storming session here at HF.com.

Just think about all the small gigs she could be playing and we could provide the live feed...Ka-ching. This could be the fuel to power Miguel's site for the next 20 years. Tusk you should be over-thinking this right now.

lol "Ka-ching?" I think that would be a money losing proposition

...I don't want to even think about how much I've already spent this year in travel and hotel to see Haley. I'd guess that I'm probably among the top among Haliens in that regard , which is not necessarily something I'm entirely proud of.

If you guys think your relatives look at you weird for your fandom, imagine what mine must think of me?

(probably, why isn't he spending that on me? and who is this "Haley Reinhart" anyway?)

If anything, Haley owes me a 'solid' by visiting the Northwest again so I wouldn't have to travel so much

I thought about that Oh BTY Buzz I couldn't resist takeing your pic of Hales in the red Hat. Just had to have it. Its ok Tusk your Creditcard statment tell it all.Just think of it as giveing the Haliens a treat than you can justify the cost. kinda

It is a big idea. Mark Cuban bought into it some months back.

Quote:Mark Cuban saw the value in the televised side of live music earlier this year when he teamed up with Ryan Seacrest to rebrand his HDNet cable channel as AXS TV, a 24/7 live-music network. "I'm a big believer for all the reasons that live events create a unique experience for the people there, television extends it to everybody," he said. "The one thing the Internet doesn't really provide you is zero latency and the thing social media is all about is zero latency. We might have all seen the 'Gangnam Style' video at different times but didn't share the experience. Television, everybody sees it at the same time. It becomes a communal experience and television has become the only way to reach a big audience and enable that communal experience. We're looking at AXS TV to in essence be the ESPN of music and pop culture."

As I understand it, they televise the show and then give the material they recorded to the artists to use as they want. So far they've been targeting big names.

^ Typical...I'm a day late and a few million short.

However, the concept is very, very good. Could be a pay per view type thing for less known artists. The fee could be anything from $5 and up...only I was thinking online viewing, which is somewhat indistinguishable from live TV.

Miguel always at the ready with research material...

That was one of my gripes about Interscope not even doing the bare minimum in exposure for Haley at Lolla....

I bet they could have gotten any of her fans to follow her around (probably they would do it for free) and post stuff on the Internet....

They didn't even do that. Best they did on their site for the occasion was to post my video of "Oh My"....

Oh well, that's history, on to bigger and better

...OK this shirt is going to be as ironed as it's going to be...I'm off
(maybe Swansteel will tweet from there)

^ Tusk it looks like you have about 15-20 minutes between sets...that should be plenty of time to upload a few songs...

Someone has to keep track of the song list...we need a list. Recruit a good looking babe (or is that Babbs) to help you out.

Don't forget anything new is golden...like our Golden Girl!
