Danny Gans died today.
Unless you live near, or have visited Las Vegas - you might not know about Danny Gans. He was an impressionist, and his show was one of the hottest tickets in Vegas.
When I first visited the town in 2001, I was pretty amazed to see such a fuss (he has the record for the largest free-standing billboard in the world) being made over someone - an impressionist mind you - who I had absolutely never seen or heard about.
I'd like to end by saying I caught his show and was blown away, but I didn't. I'm sure he was great, though - everyone raved about him. (And that billboard... it was huge!)
Anyway,
here he is (or was - as it were).
