This is a sad day for many in the Vegas area...

Not only was Danny Gans a TREMENDOUS TALENT...But he was one of the most GENUINE gentlemen to ever step onto a Vegas stage..

My prayers go out to his Family and co workers...

seems pretty sad. Only remember him from all the billboards when I visited there. Guess he was pretty talented impersonator.

Being a local I see clips of him all the time..

But I never went to his show....

Allways thought I would catch him later...

But everyone that went to his show that I talked to said he was an amazing talent on stage..

I saw him several years ago. He was great and was hoping to catch him again at his new place at Encore. Some of his stuff was a bit dated (Johnny Carson, George Burns), but it was a fun show.

The part that really sticks with me was at the end. He addressed the crowd when he was done, told everyone what a blessing it was for him to be able to perform for us and how thankful he was. For a guy who had such success for so long, and to be so humble.... I don't see that often.

He will be missed.
