Aiming to reduce the rates of HIV and STD infections among the youth demographic, AIDS Healthcare Foundation (AHF) has teamed up with pop-punk solo performer Eryn Woods, who will be using her spring/summer tour with pop girl group The Millionaires to promote safer sex to their young fan base. The Eryn Woods and The Millionaires tour will be making stops in California, Oregon, Washington, Utah, Colorado, Montana, Ohio, Nevada, and Wisconsin over the next six weeks beginning in April 25th until May. Each show will feature a performance of the safer sex awareness song composed by Eryn Woods for AHF, “It’s a Wrap,” a message to would-be paramours that the only way they’ll be allowed to get intimate is if they plan to “play it safe” by using a condom. Thousands of free condoms – donated to the tour by AHF – will be distributed at each show.
Though many songs by The Millionaires feature explicit lyrics about casual sex, all of the artists on the tour were excited by the opportunity to pair their party-promoting tunes with important messaging about protecting your health and the health of your partners.
“There are 9 million new infections among young people aged 18 to 24 every year, and that’s not something we can just stand by and accept,” said Eryn Woods. “The Millionaires and I are so honored that young people look up to us and listen to us, and we want to use that as an opportunity to deliver a positive message that could ultimately save a lot of lives.”

Guided by Michael Jackson’s own words, the new “Michael Jackson One” by Cirque du Soleil starts previews May 23 and celebrates its official premiere June 29 at Mandalay Bay.
L.A. attorney John Branca, co-executor of the Estate of Michael Jackson, said: “We are guided by Michael’s own philosophy in all that we do. In preparing for this production, Michael’s message to the cast and crew for his ‘This Is It’ concerts was foremost in our minds. He counseled them on what the audience experience should be.
Cirque CEO and President Daniel Lamarre hosted a preview of “One” at Mandalay Bay and added: “Our second project with the Michael Jackson Estate confirms how stimulating this creative partnership was meant to be. As a creative challenge, this project is the ultimate — Michael Jackson is an all-time phenomenal artist, timeless and contemporary.
“This new theatrical experience is not only respectful of Michael’s legacy, but also very distinctive from the ‘Immortal’ world arena tour.”
Even this show has been rehearsed in Montreal, as a viewers are sure about the magic is going to operate in the next few weeks prior to the preview and premiere full of acts and quality performers.
Blue Man Group is the best delightfully and unpredictable show

Three talented musicians Chris Wink, Phil Stanton and Matt Goldman begun in the late 1990’ s a distinctive and multimedia experience of three eccentric Blue Man. Before the show even starts, guests at the Monte Carlo will get an invigorating dose of these three blue performers with a dazzling percussive parade that take place 45 minutes before curtain time. The percussion processional, or Percussipede, is a musical centipede of percussion instruments, musicians, robots and puppets co-created with world-renowned 3-D designer Michael Curry. The vibrant parade will immerse unknowing spectators in the imaginative world of the Blue Man Group, setting the tone for the thrilling experience in store at their show.
The show started off with a bang and this one has no dialog but can make you fall out of your seat in laughter. You can expect some props to include Jell-O, marshmallows, Twinkies, paint, TONS of paper and tubes, and you might also expect some of those props to end up on your lap. The audience participation really made it memorable and had lots of laugh. One of the best major aspects of this show is a collection of instruments, special effects and set pieces that explore the human brain. This is a “concert move” full of instructions that get more and more ridiculous, culminating in immense, illuminated spheres tossed into the audience followed by toilet paper cannons, streamers and fog. Definitely, The Blue Man group is one of those things in life that each penny is worth it!
