So, I went to the premiere of Stomp Out Loud at the newly renovated Planet Hollywood, (formerly known as The Aladdin), the other night, and Damn! What a noizefest! Clang Clang Clang!!! what a bunch of crap! Who thought of this stupid shit anyway? What, ..couldn't they think of ANYTHING to say.... the WHOLE performance? And what the heck was with the leftover set from RENT? ....So, the janitors come out and sweep down the place to get ready for the performance. That's fine, but it turns out .....THEY'RE THE SHOW!!! sweep sweep....shuffle shuffle.....tap tap.... wow, great.
OK, so I'm kidding. Truth be told I had a great time, I really dug it. It looks like a revival of the original "Stomp" from Broadway, very cool! Everything was top shelf: the show, the company, the after party with free food and free booze ....Free BOOZE?! How can you argue with that? I'm not talking about well drinks either, it was totally top shelf all the way!
Bruce Willis was even rumored to be there, but I didn't see him. In fact, my contention is that Bruce is actually dead and Ashton Kutcher is posing in his place. I may be wrong about him being actually dead, but if he's making Die Hard part FOUR, which he is, he must be close to dead, right?! I guess he
gots to get paid, eh?! Planet Hollywood must not be paying off like he thought. When you hitch a ride to Sly Stallone's little red wagon, that's what you get. Bruce, if you're out there, forget about the 80's, ....that's history! This smacks soooo much of Beverly Hills Cop 3, you might as well make it a buddy picture while you're at it. How about "Disney's-The Kid 2"! ......Sadness. (Props for "Grindhouse" though).
I did, however, see Robin Leach at "Stomp Out Loud". He was roaming around by himself, presumably trying to pick up what was left of his shattered caviar dreams or something. Not much of an entourage there, didn't even have a date. I'm kind of speculating the reason why Mr. Champagne-Wishes was at the Stomp premier was that he was spying for the Venetian! As some people may know, he does the voice overs for the Blueman Group commercials, which is one of the shows at the Venetian. Blueman group, if you don't know, is a similar predominantly percussive style of show. In fact, I think I may have seen Bruce Willis-Kutcher roughly escourting Robin out of there, and he might have dotted his eye a few times on the way out, but I may be mistaken. It looked like he was getting rough with him from behind, but who knows. Sounds like something Willis would do!
I also noticed that Weeman from MTV's Jackass made a short appearance too. I saw him at the after party peeking over the lobster and shrimp table. (That was cheap shot, but I don't care! the guy kicks himself in the head for a living!)
Sorry for the Roast, Mr. Willis, Mr. Leach, and Mr. Wee, Vegas made me do it!
