RE: Haley at the Cosmopolitan August 15-17
Oh, I would love to see Haley in Vegas!! But timing is so bad...I'm on vacation the week before, and school stuff is happening that week.  I feel grateful that Haley is coming to Chicago, and that i will be able to see her for minimal cost, so I can't complain.
Maybe she'll play at the Cosmopolitan again... I'm gonna meet you in Vegas one of these times Swan and Tusk.
hehe
And Midnight, aren't we making up for lost time! Seeing Haley 3 times in a month. Congrats. you deserve it. ( but I am a little jealous)

Vegas & Chicago will be two totally different things.
Vega$ will probably be identical to the show that Tusk so generously already recorded & posted on Youtube.
Chicago will be a free outdoor concert with the unique experience of Haley playing with the full Midnight Band and the next day playing with all their family and friends and meeting fellow Haliens from around the country.
Two free concerts actually if you include the Beatles Tribute Band American English.

RE: Haley at the Cosmopolitan August 15-17
They still haven't confirmed it at the Cosmo web page....I'm waiting for confirmation before I book
I have a feeling this might be different, for a couple reasons:
-Will Haley repeat the same Jazz standards type performance as last time? We have little experience of Haley performing full concerts consecutively. Last time in LV, she came with different playlist each night. (adding/subtracting one or two songs each night). I think there's a good chance, especially because Haley has shown she likes to 'mix it up', that she won't be repeating..
-Haley's recent interviews highlighting that she will be going edgier on her next project. Her two song camps, and the underwhelming of LU makes me think that she will already have shifted into a 'different' mind set than the one she had going into LU. Besides, this will be a good way to test out anything new on a small audience. If anything like last time (almost 60 songs), she will get to experiment, on stage, to a core fan group. A soft landing to try new stuff?
-Who will accompany her? Apparently, Keith is almost done with his studio project that has had him MIA the last 3 weeks or so. How long is Courtney contracted to P2's tour? John has been touring on shows as well, for how long? Keith is likely to accompany her as not only is he more likely to be available, he is incredibly versatile, so if Haley decides to go with something different, stylistically, she could count on Keith to be able to 'keep up'  . Will Haley throw John a bone if he's available? I would be up to hear John free style the way Haley let Keith and Courtney solo last time 
The make up of her musicians might influence what and how she performs...
-Edit: I see Casey is free on those dates.... he has a show on the 18th in Idylwild at noon, but it would solve Haley's 'who accompanies' question. Noon would make it tight, but LV is a quick flight.... Yeah probably reaching
Of course, the above is idle conjecture.
Most likely, because IT IS LV, IT IS the Cosmopolitan AND Haley and Keith (who I expect to, at least, be there, if not Courtney) are so Damn good at Jazz, it will be another jazz set with different Jazz standards sprinkled with LU songs (gotta play the favorites for the fans  )
