HEADLINER SHOWDOWN - Mat Franco vs. Piff the Magic Dragon

Mat Franco has a self-named theater at Linq Hotel. Located at the top of a very long, steep escalator above the casino floor, the renovated space can be quite difficult to locate. Its overly-modern redesign features an industrial look with exposed pipes, bare bulbs, and slate grey walls. High-quality lighting and sound are a plus, but the cheap, awkward general admission seats appear to have been chosen by IKEA trainees. 

Piff and company recently moved from the intimate Bugsy's Cabaret to Flamingo's main showroom. That grand dame was once home to Donny & Marie and Olivia Newton-John. Vintage-style booths and long narrow tables are a mixed bag, but the classic vibe of this historic room cannot be denied. It's wide, relatively spacious, and very easy to locate off the north side of the casino floor.
