I just got a press release announcing David Cook’s appearance on FOX’s New Years Eve Live show. The show is set to take place at the Mirage in Las Vegas on New Years Eve:
AMERICAN IDOL Season Seven winner David Cook and Grammy Award-winning musician Scott Weiland are set to perform at The Mirage in Las Vegas on NEW YEARà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢S EVE LIVE airing Wednesday, Dec. 31 (11:00 PM-12:30 AM ET live; CT/MT/PT tape-delayed) on FOX.
This year, NEW YEARà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢S EVE LIVE goes coast-to-coast with hosts Spike Feresten of TALKSHOW WITH SPIKE FERESTEN and Mark Thompson of HOLE IN THE WALL when they report live from the bright lights of the Las Vegas Strip. Feresten and Thompson will count down to 2009 with celebrity guests and performances by some of the yearà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s hottest musical artists. As 2008 comes to a close, the annual celebration will move to New York City to ring in the new year as the world-famous New Yearà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s Eve Ball makes its descent into Times Square. Additional musical guests and artists scheduled to appear to be announced.
Not a giant bulletin–FOX’s New Years Eve special typically features an Idol or two.
However, this totally caught my attention:
Shortly after midnight, world-renowned daredevil Robbie Knievel will attempt a death-defying 200-foot jump over the recently renovated Mirage Volcano. Knievelà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s New Yearà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s Eve jump marks the 41st anniversary of his father Evel Knievelà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s bone-shattering jump at Caesars Palace.
à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“How better to draw the worldà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s attention to the new Mirage and our fiery main attraction then with a spectacular stunt on one of the hottest nights of the year?à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ said Scott Sibella, President and COO of The Mirage. à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“Having Robbie jump our new Volcano on New Yearà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s Eve will provide the perfect cap to our multi-million dollar transformation.à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬
Seriously?!!?!
Livehead, will you be videotaping DC? That would be awesome. Thanks for all the tubey goodness.
Me three, worried about David going to the mideast. I’ll be glad when he comes safely back home.
I’m really going to miss him when he stops being on tv twice a week.
Anyone found out any more info about the Vegas gig? Livehead16?
you’re welcome sashab.
as for nye, i still haven’t gotten any information. am working on it. if i can get my camera in there, i will absolutely record it, but i suspect that may be difficult. it depends what type of show it actually is.
