Hi everyone! I tried to get tickets for the Beatles Love show in Las Vegas but I was unable to order tickets beyond December 31! Is the show closing? Or do they only sell tickets 2-3 months ahead? (Sorry if this is the wrong thread - I will move it if so!) Thanks in advance! Tom (aka W. O'B.)

Ticketmaster.com shows availability at least through March 2018. This show is too popular to close.

I saw it in September. Great show. I was in the top row of the place, and could see everything just fine. In fact, I think those in the front rows may miss some of the acrobatics.

JcS Was the sound awesome? I have heard that it is like hearing the Beatles in the studio, a great sound system that brings the music alive.

JcS Was the sound awesome? I have heard that it is like hearing the Beatles in the studio, a great sound system that brings the music alive. Oh yeah. www.kvraudio.com/focus/a-visit-backstage-at-the-beatles-love-show-16742And the relevant part: The sound system The sound of the show is gorgeous and state of the art for any kind of theatrical venue. The sound was designed by Jonathan Deans who has worked on many Broadway shows (including a Tony nomination for La Cage aux Folles) in addition to his work on at least ten different Cirque shows. All the audio for the audience is derived from the 29 inputs of the playback system, mixed through a Meyer Sound LCS, and sent to over 6,000 speakers located throughout the venue. Included in this number are 150 Meyer M1Ds, and 70 or so CQs. The rest of the number is filled out by three custom Innovox speakers for each seat, one on either side and one on the back of the seat in front of so that everybody in the audience can get the intended audio effect. (note: Meyer Sound acquired Level Control Systems (LCS) in 2005). The LCS Series has been replaced by D-Mitri. LOVE hasn’t moved to the newer d’Mitri system because in order to do so they would have to reassemble the team of the Martins and Jonathan Deans back in the building to approve it). There are actually two LCS systems in place; one is for mixing the music and the other is the VRAS (Level Control Systems) to manipulate the acoustics of the room. There are 60 microphones placed throughout the theater that pick up the ambient noise in the room. The feeds from these mics are sent through two different algorithms (Reverberation and Early Reflection) and then sent back to the speakers so that they can change what the room sounds like rather than processing the tracks themselves. With the main mixing system having 88 inputs and 288 outputs, LOVE has the second largest LCS set up in the world next to Tokyo Disney theme park. There are several monitor mixes that go out from a Yamaha PM5D. The monitor mixes are sent to the playback engineer, as well as a bunch of other back stage areas; light console operator, stage manager, and other booths that control projection, lighting and automation, as well as special mix for hearing impaired as required by federal law. The health of this massive array of speakers is gauged from Audio Control Room using the software below, which measures the impedance of each speaker zone to make sure it is functioning properly (e.g. making sound). Certain impedance thresholds are set for each seating zones and if these thresholds are exceeded they know they have a problem and approximately where to find it.

Well, we went and it was great! We were in the front row somewhat *below* the stage so I'm sure we missed some stuff. But yes, the sound was great! Before the show they played Beatles songs with the vocals removed which wowed me! So definitely check it out if you're ever in Vegas! Yes, that's me and my lovely bride! I'm the ugly guy on the left.
