Yeah I was stuck in Bangkok during it, not sure if I should

about missing the DO III as I was having a good time in Bangkok. But I did miss seeing the folks there.
Was hoping you'd be swinging out to LV during the opening too, sounds like you can't make it. I'll be flying in from Thailand for it. You should take a trip to the Macau properties, talk about putting LV to shame... Holy S***, I love that place. But talk about aggressive gamblers, they are just crazy.

You could be right, as I said my old host, the director of all the hosts, is now some big wig over at the new hotel and he will call me tomorrow with an update as I am flying in from half way around the world he wants to clarify a few items before we confirm the dates. And since it is their dime I'm assuming they'll get it right with my reservations. I'll post what I hear if it is anything unusual. But our last talk a few days ago had the opening ceremony's set at the 20th which is a Sunday if I'm not mistaken.
The 17th is a Thur and I can see how everything will be open, but I have a hard time picturing the ribbon's being cut and dedications done on Thur. Currently they have me arriving on Friday with the dedication on Sunday. Maybe that is the soft opening on the 17th or the goal for everything to be ready by. I dunno, I'm usually wrong on many things and I've spent my last 3/4 of the year in Macau and Manila without going back to Vegas.
EDIT: Just reread your post, and yeah you are hearing what I am hearing too, the opening will be the 20th, which is the weekend of the 17th which I assume is what you mean. Everything should be up and running by the 17th with the ribbon cutting and dedication to be done on Sunday the 20th is what I hear.
