| The 1960s ushered in many historic milestones in American culture, including the first man to walk on the moon, the first bikini, and the first man to wear a bikini while walking on the moon. Learn about one of this decade's lesser known advancements—its music—with today's Groupon: for $15, you get one general-admission ticket to Echoes of the 60s at The V Theater (a $45 value), located in the Miracle Mile Shops inside of Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino on the Las Vegas strip. Shows run Saturday and Monday–Thursday at 6 p.m. Produced and hosted by Frankie Valli & the Four Seasons member Bill DeLoach, Echoes of the 60s transports the audience on a musical multimedia romp through the nation's swingingest era. Principal cast members regale onlookers with true tales about growing up and playing in bands throughout the '60s, caressing topics such as the influence of Phil Spector's Wall of Sound, the magnitude of the 1964–1966 British Invasion, and the long-hoped-for repeal of a nationwide ban on tambourines. Recounts of the 1967–1968 psychedelic phase showcase both the non-Western recording techniques of psychedelic music and the non-primary colors of album covers, while the cast closes the show by sharing personal stories of the infamous 1969 Woodstock Festival. The V Theater irrigates thirsty audiences with a full bar and cocktail service, as well as an obliging team of Super Soaker–armed ushers.
