One of the better writers for the Las Vegas Sun is Jon Kastsilometes and he has a behind the scenes look at how the day of the show concerts operate.

For those who go to concerts, you just see the performers entertain, but it takes a lot to get a concert going.
You have the ticket people, security, people working the sound and light boards, stage hands, musicians, people like Christine who have organize everything and make sure everything operates smoothly. The entertainers have it easy, it takes the employees of the casinos and the other venues who make everything work properly.
The article is an excellent read.
I really like Jon Kastsilometes. I had the pleasure of meeting him during a visit to Las Vegas once, and he is just as interesting and funny in person.
