I've seen a few shows and been to some non-concert events like a Super Bowl party and the Fetish and Fantasy Ball. This venue is fine for all that in my book. Nothing extraordinaire. Just a decent modern concert hall. I'd much rather be here than the MGM Grand Garden Arena.
The VIP boxes are a nice, comfy way to go. But you don't pay as much attention to the show since you end up interested in what food is coming out next, letting the servers know what you want to drink and bs'ing with other folks there. The side tables are only good if they're comped. They aren't worth the price. I'd rather just be in the standing area above them.
It's a little less personal compared to The Pearl or House of Blues but if one of my favorite bands play here, I'm there.
