JAY-Z & KANYE WEST HIT UP VEGAS

Rappers Jay-Z and Kanye West will be spending their New Years working this year – Vegas style.


Jay-Z will be performing at the swanky Pearl Concert Theater on Saturday, Dec. 29. The venue sold out within an hour, according to a box office representative. Tickets for the show, which were originally priced up to $225 each, are now selling on eBay for as much as $750 a pair.

West hasn't had quite as much luck selling out the Pearl, though it may be due to ticket prices which climb as high as $350. Tickets are still available for the New Year's Eve concert that begins at 10:30 p.m.

The Pearl is an upscale, 3,300 square-foot venue that seats up to 2,500 guests. According to a review on Vegas.com, no seat is farther than 120 feet from the stage in the three-level facility

In addition to getting up close and personal, each level of the Pearl has its own beverage stations and restrooms, while 18 private and semi-private sky boxes have their own bars, lounges and restrooms.
