The Wizard of Oz whether as theater, a musical, or a cinematic masterpiece is my favorite of all time…because the flying monkeys absolutely scared the shite out of me as a child. If you’ve had an opportunity to experience the Sphere, I cannot imagine a more perfect cinematic experience.





Preview showing to VIP’s and families/friends…

I’d really like to drop acid and do that. I’m in Vegas once every four months for business, so might as well plan for this if possible.

EDIT: Apparently it’s sold out through March. The Sphere

There’s plenty of tickets on sale on Ticketmaster. Only there through the beginning of December.

It reminds me of The Twister ride at Universal Studios.

It was a “soft” opening to VIPs, working the kinks out, as you can see the wind & fog machines in the pit, but I wouldn’t mind catching a matinee with the Scarecrow as my usher.

It features a 366-foot-tall, 516-foot-wide exterior LED screen called the Exosphere and an interior 160,000-speaker sound system.


Not to mention the wind effects, monkey drones, falling apples, snow and other crazy shite .

IMAX is an incredible experience, the Sphere is next generation fighter in comparison. Went to Kenny Chesney at the end of May, was an out of body experience. Speaking of which, Big Pig or the Wall might kill ya’, it was worth the $$$.
