Fremont St. Experience

通常去Las Vegas, 我們都在strip附近活動,

這次, 我們逛到舊的downtown 地區, 在Fremont St. 附近, 看到Fremont St. Experience (此連結有節目和這個景觀的介紹).  1995年開始有燈光秀, 2004年又花一千七百萬美元, 大手筆的把燈光和音響更新.

停車似乎不好停, 其實停在靠近的大一點的casion停車場(像Las Vegas Club), 雖然會被收取停車費, 但只要走到cashier, 憑停車證可以把停車費要回來~  其實是免費的.

我們看到很壯觀的燈光秀.  每次時間一到, Fremont街上的casino外面招引客人的燈光就全部熄滅, 中間搭在街上頂上的燈光就亮起, 音樂也響起, 很漂亮很好看.  我們看到的是六零年代耳熟能詳的老歌.  老外們腳都癢起來的, 跟著又跳又唱.

YouTube用Fremont St. Experience來搜尋, 可以看到很多相關的影片.

我要介紹大家一條老歌, 過去我們太小沒聽過, 那晚我們在燈光秀聽到, 覺得很不錯~

In the year 2525
歌詞如下:
In the year 2525
if man is still alive
If woman can survive they may find... 

In the year 3535
Ain't gonna need to tell the truth tell no lies
Ev'rything you think do and say
 is in the pill you took today.

In the year 4545
You ain't gonna need your teeth won't need your eyes
You won't find a thing to chew
nobody's gonna look at you.

In the year 5555 
your arms are hangin' limp at you side
Your legs got nothin' to do
some machines doin' that for you.

In the year 6565
Ain't gonna need no husband won't need no wife
You'll pick your son
pick your daughter too
From the bottom of a long glass tube.

In the year 7510
If God's a-coming he oughta make it by then
Maybe he'll look around himself and say:
Guess it's time for the judgement day.

In the year 8510
God is gonna shake his mighty head
He'll either say I'm pleased where man has been
Or tear it down and start again.

In the year 9595
I'm kind a wond'rin' if man is gonna be alive
He's taken everything this old earth can give
And he ain't put back nothin'.

Now it's been tenthousand years
man has cried a billion tears
For what he never knew - now man's reign is through.
But through eternal night the twinkling of starlight
So very far away - maybe it's only yesterday.

In the year 2525 if man is still alive
In the year 3535. . .
