Short quote: Jubilee!

Wherein nice gloves


A showgirl's story:
“My heart was very full of art and joy, but I was terribly poor,” Preister said. “All my life people said, ‘Go to Vegas—you’re so talented,’ but I don’t party and I didn’t think it was for me. But Vegas is very different than I expected. There are libraries and schools—people who visit the Strip don’t think about those things.”

I saw Jubilee in '88, with my girlfriend (she's the one who wanted to see that show, I wasn't into Vegas shows back then).

That show was the first place I got served alcohol without being carded (and good thing, too, given that I was two years under the drinking age).

It seemed cheesy and out of date in '88, now in '09, it's retro and classic, funny how that works.
