We're Gonna Party Like It's 1989
Okay, why is Vegas obsessed with 80's music? It is everywhere you turn, in the casinos, on the radio. It is so weird to me. Is it an attempt to relive the decadence of the decade of excess, subliminally encouraging people to spend, spend, spend? Are they targeting the Generation X-ers? It seems like a lot of younger people are out here, people who were toddlers when Madonna was slithering on the stage floor in a bridal gown. I mean, don't get me wrong, some of those songs were GREAT; others I could have done without back in the 80's even. But it is hard to get nostalgic about hearing 80's music when you hear it every waking moment! I guess I know where to have my 25th High School Reunion - and we won't have to pay a DJ!
