If you don't have a voice that forces you back to basics, you're a dangerous person. Or to put it another way: You're at risk, and the people with you are at risk. I'm not a daredevil. I don't fly without a safety net.
What we know about the destination resort business is clearly established. But it's all about one thing, and one thing only. All of the razzmatazz and jazz we hear about facilities and everything else doesn't amount to a hill of beans. It's customer experience that determines the longevity and endurance of these enterprises.
This generation... they have a different attitude. Instead of sitting and watching something, they want to be a part of it - they're very hedonistic and sensual.
This is a record that was meant to be played live so I'm pretty excited about hitting the road and taking it to the stage.
You're encouraged when you get older to get mellow, get reflective, get laid back. I don't understand why. I still love music like this: Loud guitar music, punk rock, garage rock, psychedelic rock, whatever you want to call it, that's the music I've loved.

The pent-up demand for the good life in China is extraordinary.
Who wants to know? Like it's any of your business.... so I happen to like art work.... don't expect me to show you my magic marker collection, either.... they are for me and my special time with my Mickey Mouse ears! And some of the chicks, of course... but just the ones that I really trust, the ones that like to wear Mickey Mouse ears.... you know what I mean?
It's great to go out walking and have the whole world happen around you. I think I've written my last song from the inside of my car.
Artists, actors, people like that, they live in a very strange bubble of their own. They're mollycoddled; they're highly privileged.
If Pennsylvania decided to give the tourist industry in the state a shot in the arm to build nice destination resorts, I would love to be in Pennsylvania. But right now, it's not where someone can justify a large investment. It's pretty tough to do with a 54 percent tax rate.
Because of our current focus in Macau, our Board of Directors decided that any decision we make must enhance the vitality and future of Macau. Making it possible for PBL to enter was a positive and dynamic step toward upgrading and expanding the quality of investment in Macau. What's good for Macau is good for Wynn Resorts. This transaction was appealing from a financial perspective and most importantly sets the stage for other activities done in conjunction with PBL in Asia and around the world.
