Rock of Ages - Venetian Las Vegas


New thing today, we saw the Rock of Ages musical at The Venetian in Las Vegas. It was awesome and nothing but a good time. It's a musical based on hair metal rock from the 80s. Husband and I enjoyed the movie as we also loved this live show. The stories are different and the songs are a little different too, but we love both versions.

Another thing I really love about this show is the fun and campiness of the whole thing. It's very cheeky. Makes you laugh and not take anything too seriously, but also speaks to your inner rocker.

We got there early and got upgraded to the 2nd row middle!!! Amazing seats!!! Felt like a rockstar! The music and show were all great.


At the end we were very enthusiastic and a little sad to hear it all end. That's when they set you up to go to the Bourban room. See rocker guy with flashing lights and arrows on his body and crotch. He has a megaphone to direct you to the Bourban room, where if you bought a ticket, you get a free shot. It was delish and they kept the party vibe going with an air guitar contest and music to rock out and dance too. The host after hours was a little cruise ship cheesy at certain parts "where you all from?" and "Texas in the house!" getting the crowd loosened up and all that, but we still had fun.


Overall if you like rock music, you may love this musical :) I saw plenty of dudes rocking out and I might say even enjoying it more than their dates or wives. It's a little raunchy and CPU but excellent music and great fun! Best show I've seen so far in Vegas!
