Saw them a little over a year ago in Vegas. It was awesome....best $70 I ever spent. Now I know that the current touring version is a bit different from the fixed location but according to the San Fran Chronicle (I think that was the name) they still put on quite a show. Supposedly they put up some big tents and such to make room for the performance. (This was in last Fridays paper)

Seen em once in New York and once in Boston. Great show, and the theatres i went to see them in were tiny, so every seat was super duper good! If you get seats in the first few rows, be sure to wear clothes you don't mind getting dirty...they tend to spray things into the crowd (they give you plastic sheets to go over your clothes, but some people don't put them on properly and get screwed).

GO FOR IT!

I really wanted to see them when I was in Vegas, but it was a bit pricey. We ended up seeing Skintight instead. E! was there filming for their Nearly Famous 2 (http://www.eonline.com/On/NearlyFamous2/index.html) series and I actually got called up on stage during intermission. I doubt I will make it on TV though. ;)

Honestly, it really wasn't that great of a show. I mean, yeah, there were boobs and some of them were pretty nice and, yeah, Shannon O'Keefe was in it, but she's getting up there in her years and was not the most attractive babe in the show. The only redeeming part of spending $20 on the show was that I ended up on stage to help get the audience invlolved in some intermission festivities. Other than that, there wasn't much that I would say really impressed me. The show was on the short side and I don't really remember much of it now other than the "venetian blind" portion and the "stomp" portion with the brooms and trash cans.
