I hear you Navymom. It's my girlfriend that wants to make the appointments ;-) I'm all for dinner appointments, not shows. I told her next time we will take in one show and one dinner. She was totally cool with it. I didn't even get to go to the Strat to get my virgin margarita. I have tasted margaritas in many hotels in Vegas and here in my hometown. The Stratasphere on the top floor lounge above the "Top of the World Resteraunt" makes the best margaritas by ever!!!!!!!!!!

I am 50. Starting visiting Vegas in 2000 with my hubby for our 40th birthdays. We stopped going in 2007. To many other options on the East Coast along with the rising price of airfare..made it an easy decision. I'll get back there one day, but honestly, AC is a 3 hr drive, Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods, about an hour. So it's kind of a no brainer.
As far as your comment earlier, you hate "feeling like you have to make an appointment" pertaining to shows, then DON'T. Same thing with reservations for dinner. DON'T make them. The obvious reason for both is that you will be able to eat when you wanted and where you wanted, or have a seat for the show you'd like to see. By not planning, doesn't mean you won't eat or see the show, but it will probably be harder to do so when you decided it is the time.
Most shows I believe have standby windows... if show up near show time, go to the box office and see if they have anything available, that may work out, but again, you'd have to plan to do that...so what I'm saying is...if you don't want to "make that appointment" then you'll could be just wasting a bunch of time.
