Fireworks, superstars ring in the new year in Las Vegas
By: REGINA GARCIA CANO, Associated PressLAS VEGAS (AP) - Tens of thousands of people rang in the new year across Las Vegas, watching fireworks launch from the top of some of the city's iconic casino-resorts, attending superstar performances at various venues and participating in a celebratory midnight toast.
Federal agents and local police were out in force, with teams of police stationed inside most major casinos on the Strip, plainclothes officers in the crowd and snipers keeping an eye on things from rooftops. Officials also banned backpacks, ice chests, strollers and glass items from the street celebrations as a safety measure.
The theme for this year's fireworks show was "Vegas Nights." Organizers tried to emulate the sense of excitement of an evening in Las Vegas with fireworks in rich purple, green, gold and cherry red hues.
The 80,000 pyrotechnic firings were choreographed to a custom soundtrack that includes Frank Sinatra's "Luck Be a Lady," Lionel Ritchie's "All Night Long," Celine Dion's "I Drove All Night" and Gaga's "Marry the Night." The show began at the Stratosphere casino-resort, and fireworks then launched from the Venetian, Treasure Island, Caesars Palace, Planet Hollywood, Aria and MGM Grand casino-resorts.
Inside, casino operators pulled out all the stops for the celebration. Gaga was at Park Theater at Park MGM casino-resort, Dion at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace, Stefani performed at Zappos Theater at Planet Hollywood and Maroon 5 took the stage at the Mandalay Bay Events Center.
