I've flown out to Vegas a couple times to see my favorite band perform here. Yeah, I'm a dork - whatever. This place is actually really decent when it comes to huge arenas. The sound is good, the staff is good, the MGM is pretty sweet and a central location. The last time I was here, I was third row and had an absolutely amazing time - which was amplified by the fact that security (unlike many other arenas) WASN'T totally up everyone's butts yet still managed to handle the crowd and allow people to have fun. It's all too common that people pay lots of money for great seats to a show, just to have some security guard standing on their toes for two hours. This has not been the case at the MGM either time I've been there, which gets two thumbs up.
