[pianotech] Vegas

[Noah Frere]

I thought Vegas was much cooler than I expected, and the convention was
perfect (aside from the first 2 hours of my Tuning Exam during which I
thought I failed setting A-440, which turned out being a miscalculation!) As
for the food, it was a little expensive but almost all my meals were very
good. I would definitely return there for a convention. Besides, though I
was able to see 7 or 8 casinos, I didn't get to see the venetian which looks
very cool. Oh, and we saw "O" by Cirque and it was the best show *I *ever
saw.
