I'm not sure about this...thoughts?

Tommy submitted the proofs for my billboards today, and I'm having a hard time deciding if I like them. He's been experimenting with my logo, thought it could stand to be updated. Granted, I've been using the same one for the last six years, but it's well known. Still...oh, I don't know. I truly need help, because the billboards will be a template for my new marquee at the Mirage.



Please, give me your honest opinions. Especially on the logo.

Oh, and before I forget, I simply must share something with all of you. Normally I just link to flattering articles about the show, but I had to cut and paste from this one because Tommy and our own sweet Stephanie were well reviewed.

Feast your eyes on this from the latest issue of Las Vegas Weekly...

...although the show promised to stay true to its format of classic magic interspersed with abstract pieces of performance art, Channing Vale's reopening of The Rapture has seen some alterations since it closed at the Flamingo last year. These changes, however, are not just for the better, they are for the benefit of an audience hungry for fresh blood. Featuring a more prominent antagonist, played by newcomer Tommy Karras, and featuring stunning choreography from Julliard unknown Stephanie Leighton, The Rapture remains a winning spectacle audiences simply cannot mist.

Casting herself as the cultured and charismatic heroine, Vale presents a storyline that only hones the rich and adventurous thematic landscape she pioneered in the show's previous incarnation. Presenting a classic Vegas magic revue, she endures a series of technical problems and strange occurrences that embody every live performer's worst nightmare. These events, however, are revealed to be the result of reality's boundaries unraveling as Karras arrives in the role of The Avatar, a being of pure magic from a nightmare realm. His purpose? To destroy our world, enslave the audience, and capture Vale as his queen. Armed with her conjurer's skills and the audience's faith, she stands tall against her foe and wins the day in a shocking climax that will leave you forever incapable of believing your own senses.

Richly woven with the artistic and dark beauty of evil creatures designed by Karras and Leighton's fresh, innovative choreography that creates living art out of the human form, Channing stands on the shoulders of a brilliant and truly inspired team as the Strip's first lady of magic.

Put that in your pipe and smoke it, Criss Angel.
