Criss Angel ’ s “ MINDFREAK LIVE !” Luxor Hotel , Las Vegas 20th September , 2016
So before I interview Criss Angel , myself and a few magic buddies including Tom Wright ( Chill , Kinetic ) and Matthew Underhill ( One ) take an Uber over to the Luxor hotel to experience the show - MINDFREAK LIVE !
As we approach the Luxor I notice a huge ‘ wrap ’ on the side of the building visible for miles around . This is an image that depicts Criss , levitating in his iconic pose , that must be a least twenty stories high ! Actually it ’ s the largest building wrap on the strip . Maybe this was a little indication to the scale of production that we were all about to witness .
Our tickets for the show cost approximately $ 187.50 each and this meant that we would be sitting front and center , hopefully immersed in the performance . However , before you are allowed into the arena for the show , you leave the gaming area of the Luxor and make your way through to a very impressive foyer area . This is a stunning space in itself . Sure you can get a drink and some popcorn at the fully stocked bars but the main attractions here are the numerous props and costumes on display from the hundreds of hours that Criss has spent on screen during his six seasons
