VIVA LAS VEGAS!

Actually I take that back, don’t viva Las Vegas. The place chewed us up and spat us out. Ho ho, they saw us coming. Las Vegas is a crazy place. You have to see it. Just leave your wallets at home and you might survive more than we did which was 1 day. 14 hours we were in those damn casinos. Men have been broken in those places, broken and left to die. Seriously though it was an experience, a rollercoaster ride through dizzying highs and terrifying lows. Luckily really I didn’t come off too bad. Sure I am down a bit in the end, but I did win a few and for a while WE were fucking Vegas, not the other way round. Somehow things got crazier towards the end…the drinks were ALL FREE, which was kind of good but bad. Damon put $400 with me $100 on the roulette table, black or white. It was scary shit. There were some serious bets going down…it was a crazy moment. Black Jack, Texas Hold Em, Roulette, 3-card poker. We both lost some in the end. Hightailed it out of there the next morning with our tails between our legs. In the end everybody looses. Nobody is happy until they have lost it all. Now let us never speak of it again.
I do like Las Vegas though; it is just beyond tacky, beyond grandiose, beyond most things that I have seen. A kind of decadence that exists nowhere else. The hotels are immense: A giant pyramid, replicas of cities like Paris, Venice, New York. Rollercoasters going through the hotels and outside, just crazy massive shit. Sex everywhere, and the lights!….huge billboards, neon and sparkle everywhere. In fact on the way, driving through the desert at night we could see the glow of Vegas in the sky about 100 miles away. It is just awesome. This whole massive spread of lights bang in the middle of the desert.
Unfortunately I do not have photos, we were to busy in the bloody casinos! However there I shot a cool video of the place as we came don the strip for the first time. Awesome shit.
Thers maybe a whole bunch of stuff that I have left out, like the lion in the MGM grand, but it is late and im trying to type in the freezing cold van, my hands no longer with feeling….goodnight
