Terry: TAKE A DEEP BREATH.
TONIGHT, TWO OF THESE ACTS WILL GO THROUGH TO THE SEASON FINALS,
THAT MEANS, FOR NINE, THIS WILL BE THE END OF THE ROAD.
IT'S "AMERICA'S GOT TALENT" -- THE RESULTS!
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] Terry: SO, WHO NAILED IT LAST
NIGHT? WHO GOT YOUR VOTING?
WHO LEFT YOU COLD? ALL WILL BE REVEALED IN THE NEXT
HOUR. SOME DREAMS WILL STAY ALIVE.
SOME DREAMS WILL COME TO AN END. LET'S START WITH A LOOK BACK AT
THE EPIC BATTLE THAT TOOK PLACE RIGHT HERE ON THIS STAGE, AS ALL
OF THESE ACTS FOUGHT FOR A SPOT IN THE FINALS.
THEY HAD JUST ONE SHOT. CHECK IT OUT.
HELLO! OH, MY GOODNESS.
WHEN YOU'RE ON THAT STAGE, IT'S YOUR SHOW, NOT MY SHOW.
IT'S ALL UP TO YOU AND I WANT ALL OF YOU TO DO WELL, BUT THE
REALITY IS WE ARE GOING TO LOSE ACTS.
YOU HAVE TO BRING YOUR "A" GAME. I REALLY BELIEVE WHEN YOU WALK
OUT ON THAT STAGE, MAGIC HAPPENS.
GOOD LUCK, EVERYONE. HERE WE GO AGAIN!
BOBBY! FROM JAPAN, HERE IS
MPLUSPLUS. I'M GOING TO BE TOTALLY
HONEST WITH YOU, THIS DOES NOT BLOW ME AWAY.
COME ON. IT'S VIBRANT AND EVERYTHING
BUT IS IT SPECTACULAR ENOUGH? IT WASN'T, I'M SORRY.
I COMPLETELY AND UTTERLY DISAGREE.
THANK YOU! ISN'T THAT A VEGAS ACT?
YES. I LOVED IT EVEN MORE THAN THE
AUDITION. DID YOU HAVE YOUR CONTACT
LENS IN? ONLY ONE.
I LOVE YOU TWO SO MUCH. I JUST WANT TO BOTTLE UP THIS
VIBE AND KEEP IT WITH ME FOREVER.
I MEANT IT WHEN I SAID YOU WERE ONE OF MY FAVORITE
AUDITIONS. I HAVE A FEELING YOU MAY HAVE
GONE OFF KEY AT TIMES. BUT BRI, YOU ARE THE STAR.
THAT WAS VERY UNDERWHELMING. THIS JOURNEY IS LIFE
CHANGING. I'M GLAD I'M DOING IT WITH
YOU. LOVE YOU.
LOVE YOU MORE. FROM TRUMBULL, CONNECTICUT,
HERE IS AMANDA MAMMANA. WHAT A DIFFERENCE FROM THE
SHY PERSON WE MET, TO SEE YOUR CONFIDENCE.
I AM THE PROUDEST FATHER IN AMERICA RIGHT NOW.
I DON'T THINK WE'VE SEEN YET THAT MOMENT WHERE YOU GO --
IT'S DIFFERENT AND IT'S DIFFICULT.
WHAT! YOU BRING JOY TO THE STAGE.
IT LOOKS LIKE YOU HAVE PREPARED FOR THIS WITH ALL YOUR HEARTS.
AND YOU NEVER MISS A BEAT, IT IS INCREDIBLE TO WATCH.
AMAZING. YOU LIKE CANADIANS, RIGHT?
WOW, I'M GOING TO REMEMBER THAT.
WE ARE XOMG POP. IT'S LIKE A PINATA EXPLODED
AND SEVEN OF THOSE SPICE GIRLS FELL OUT.
THIS IS NOT FOR ME. BUT MY 7-YEAR-OLD GRANDDAUGHTER
SAYS THIS IS THE BEST ACT OF THE SEASON.
HOWIE, YOU GOT A LITTLE SOMETHING ON YOUR FACE, MAN.
IT'S HIS FACE. I WOULD TAKE MY GRANDDAUGHTER
AND LEAVE HER THERE AND COME BACK AND PICK HER UP AFTER THE
SHOW. DO YOU FEEL THE PRESSURE THAT
EVERYBODY'S UNDER TONIGHT? EVERYONE IS NERVOUS TONIGHT.
I FEEL IT. HERE'S NICOLAS RIBS.
REMEMBER THIS GUY, KEPT LAUGHING THE WHOLE TIME.
WITH HIS DAUGHTER. AMAZING.
HOW DID HE DO THIS? WOW.
NO! MY FAVORITE THING EVER.
YOU HAVE BROUGHT A NEW STYLE OF MAGIC TO AGT.
LIVE PERFORMANCE, MAGIC, ONE OF THE BEST WE'VE EVER SEEN.
I PREDICT YOU HAVE A REAL GOOD CHANCE AT WINNING THIS
WHOLE THING. NO!
THAT WAS AMAZING. I DIDN'T LOVE THE SONG.
THE VOCALS. HOWEVER, YOU DIDN'T COMPROMISE.
IT WAS LIKE A FANTASTIC MATCH. I'M A MESS, BUT IT'S GOOD,
I'LL TAKE IT, IT'S ROCK AND ROLL, MAN.
HELLO. MY BABY FROM "MODERN FAMILY."
GETTING THE YESES FROM THE JUDGES MEANT SO MUCH TO ME THAT
I ACTUALLY GOT A TATTOO. LOOK AT THAT.
HEY, KRISTAL. ANY DOG PEOPLE HERE?
HEIDI, WHAT KIND OF DOG DO YOU HAVE?
IRISH WOLFHOUND. AUDIENCE PARTICIPATION IS A
LITTLE DIFFICULT WHEN YOU'RE DEAF.
YOU HAVE A STAR GLOW ABOUT YOU, THAT WAS A GREAT
PERFORMANCE. TO BE ASKED TO BE HERE,
UNBELIEVABLE. YOU DID FANTASTIC.
THANK YOU FOR COMING. CELIA MUNOZ!
SHE'S INCREDIBLE. WE LOVE ORIGINALITY.
AND YOU ARE ORIGINAL. '
* HOPELESSLY DEVOTED * I WAS LAUGHING SO MUCH, IT
WAS BRILLIANT, IT WAS UNIQUE, IT WAS DIFFERENT.
SOMETHING YOU CAN ONLY SEE ON AGT.
HOW CLEVER WAS THAT? THAT'S SUPER CLEVER.
45 SECONDS. LET'S PARTY, AMERICA.
* CAN'T TOUCH THIS * I CAN'T SAY THAT I LOVED IT
THIS TIME. IT LOOKED LIKE MORE LIKE A
MIDDLE SCHOOL TALENT SHOW. WE DO HAVE A LOT OF VERY GOOD
TECHNICAL DANCERS ON THE SHOW WHO ARE ALSO INCREDIBLY BORING.
YOU'RE NOT. HOPEFULLY IF AMERICA SEES
WHAT SIMON SAW. WE'LL MOVE THROUGH THE
FINALS. I LIKE THEM.
OUR LAST ACT TONIGHT IS SIMON'S GOLDEN BUZZER.
SHE'S GOING TO BE GOOD. YOUR VOICE, YOUR TALENT, IS
THAT OF A SUPERSTAR. * I THINK IT'S GONNA BE A LONG
LONG TIME * SARA, I'M EMOTIONAL FOR YOU
RIGHT NOW BECAUSE I KNOW HOW MUCH THIS MEANS TO YOU.
YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE.
YOU NAILED IT, SARA.
THANK YOU SO MUCH. NOW WE HAVE TO WAIT 24 HOURS.
Terry: AMERICA, PLEASE WELCOME YOUR 11 ACTS!
[ APPLAUSE ] THIS IS THE NIGHT ALL OF THE
ACTS DREAD. THERE IS NOTHING MORE THEY CAN
DO TO KEEP THEIR DREAMS OF STARDOM ALIVE.
EVERYTHING NOW DEPENDS ON HOW YOU VOTED LAST NIGHT.
BUT IF YOUR FAVORITES DON'T GET THROUGH, IN A COUPLE OF WEEKS,
YOU CAN DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. AFTER ALL OF THE ACTS PERFORM,
THE JUDGES WILL EACH PUT FORWARD A WILDCARD ACT.
YOU AT HOME WILL VOTE IN AN INSTANT SAVE JUST TWO WEEKS FROM
TODAY AND PUT ONE OF THOSE ACTS INTO THE FINALS!
SO GET ON SOCIAL MEDIA AND LET THE JUDGES KNOW WHO YOU THINK
DESERVES THAT SPOT. AND HERE ARE THE FOUR PEOPLE WHO
WILL BE LISTENING -- YOUR "AGT" JUDGES.
GIVE IT UP FOR -- HOWIE MANDEL,
HEIDI KLUM, SOFIA VERGARA,
AND SIMON COWELL! HOWIE, LAST NIGHT YOU WERE
BRUTALLY HONEST AND THAT DIDN'T SIT WELL WITH A LOT OF PEOPLE
ONLINE. RIGHT.
Terry: HOW DO YOU RESPOND TO THAT?
Howie: I'M NOT RESPONDING TO THEM.
THE COMPETITION WAS BRUTAL. AND LAST NIGHT, WE HAD THE
HIGHEST OF HIGHS AND THEN SOME -- FOR ME, PERSONAL
DISAPPOINTMENTS. WE ARE HERE, AND WE ARE ALL PAID
TO BE HONEST. I AM BRUTALLY HONEST.
THAT'S WHY IT WAS BRUTAL. GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE.
Sofia: SOMETIMES IT'S GRUMPY. Howie: I'M NOT GRUMPY.
Terry: SOFIA, A LOT OF THE JUDGES, YOU GUYS DISAGREED ON A
LOT OF THE ACTS LAST NIGHT. WHY DO YOU THINK THAT WAS?
Sofia: FIRST OF ALL, WE HAVE DIFFERENT TASTES.
Howie: WE ALL HAVE THE SAME TASTE.
Sofia: SOME OF THEM DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO
KNOW. Howie: I KNOW EVERYTHING WE
KNOW. Sofia: SOMETIMES YOU'RE
GRUMPY, SOMETIMES YOU'RE LOCO. Simon: I DO ADMIT TO IT.
Terry: SIMON, I KNOW YOU'RE ROOTING FOR ALL OF THE ACTS.
IS IT DIFFERENT WHEN YOU HAVE YOUR GOLDEN BUZZER UP THERE?
Simon: OF COURSE, TERRY, WHEN YOU PRESS THE GOLDEN BUZZER FOR
SOMEONE, I WOULD BE LYING IF I SAID I WASN'T.
AND THAT'S JUST THE WAY IT GOES, WHEN YOU HIT THE BUZZER FOR
SOMEONE, YOU HAVE THAT BELIEF, WHATEVER YOU WANT TO CALL IT.
AND I SAID THIS LAST NIGHT, I WAS AS NERVOUS AS SARA WAS.
AND I THOUGHT WHAT SHE DID LAST NIGHT WAS REALLY GENUINE,
INCREDIBLE. REALLY.
Terry: NOW, HEIDI, A FEW OF YOU THOUGHT THE PRESSURE OF THE
LIVE SHOW WAS GETTING TO A LOT OF THE ACTS.
WHY WOULD YOU THINK THAT? Heidi: I MEAN, IT'S ONE STEP
BEFORE THE BIG FINALE AND EVERYONE OBVIOUSLY WANTED TO BE
AT THE BIG FINALE SO THEY'RE DOING THEIR BEST.
LET'S STAY ON THE POSITIVE, THINK ALL OF YOU ARE HERE
BECAUSE YOUR GREAT. AND, YOU KNOW, SOME WERE EVEN
GREATER. AND WE'LL SEE WHO MADE IT.
I CAN'T WAIT TO FIND OUT. Terry: ALL RIGHT, THANK YOU,
GUYS. ALSO TONIGHT WE HAVE A
SENSATIONAL PERFORMANCE FROM KODI LEE WITH TEDDY SWIMS AND
JOURNEY'S NEAL SCHON, YES. OKAY.
LET'S GET STRAIGHT INTO THE RESULTS.
WE'RE GOING TO START TONIGHT BY REVEALING THIS WEEK'S TOP FIVE,
AS VOTED FOR BY YOU. THAT MEANS OVER HALF OF THESE
ACTS WILL BE HEADING HOME. THIS IS TOUGH!
HERE'S THE FIRST RESULT. HAYDEN KRISTAL.

RIGHT NOW AND FOR THE REST OF THE SEASON, SONIC IS OFFERING
TWO FOR $5 MENU, A SUPERSONIC MEMBER.
THE SONIC ROUTE 44 LOUNGE IS WHERE THE ACTS GO TO CHILL.
CHECK IT OUT. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING
HERE. Terry: YOU FINALLY GOT A
CHANCE TO PERFORM FOR HOWIE MANDEL.
I'M SO GLAD I GOT TO SEE HIM. IT WAS A DREAM COME TRUE.
COME ON IN, KRISTY, CAN YOU DO MAGIC WITH THE STRAWS?
CAN YOU TELL US WHAT IT'S LIKE TO DO ALL THIS WORK SO YOU CAN
PERFORM? IT'S CRAZY PROCESS JUST TO BE
PREPARED FOR THIS ONE MOMENT. Terry: YOU MINE SIMON COWELL
EMOTIONAL. THAT'S AMAZING.
[ APPLAUSE ] Terry: AND NOW THE TENSION
GOES RIGHT UP AGAIN! BECAUSE HERE'S THE NEXT RESULT.
REMEMBER, WE'RE REVEALING WHO MADE IT INTO YOUR TOP FIVE THIS

THANK YOU SO MUCH. CELIA MUNOZ IS IN THE TOP FIVE.
WE'LL FIND OUT IF SHE MADE THE TOP TWO LATER TONIGHT.
ONE MORE TIME FOR CELIA MUNOZ. [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
Terry: SO FAR, TWO ACTS HAVE MADE THE TOP FIVE, AND ARE STILL
IN WITH A CHANCE OF MAKING THE FINALS.
LET'S SEE WHO ELSE IS JOINING THEM.
XOMG POP. FUNKANOMETRY.
AND AMANDA MAMMANA. PLEASE STEP FORWARD.
ONE OF YOU IS STILL IN THE COMPETITION.
TWO OF YOU ARE HEADING HOME. AMERICA HAS VOTED.
THE NEXT ACT STILL IN IT IS -- **
AMANDA MAMMANA! THANK YOU, XOMG POP AND
FUNKANOMETRY. YOU GUYS ARE AMAZING.
THANK YOU. AMANDA.
NOW, HOWIE, WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THE RESULTS SO FAR?
Howie: I THINK THAT AMERICA CANNOT GET IT WRONG.
THEY'VE ALL BEEN RIGHT. I WILL TELL YOU WITHOUT
MENTIONING NAMES, I HAVE BEEN SOMEWHAT SURPRISED.
I THOUGHT IT WOULD GO DIFFERENTLY.
BUT, YOU KNOW, YOU NEVER KNOW. BUT AMERICA KNOWS AND THAT'S WHY
AMERICA VOTES, AMERICA'S GOT TALENT, AMERICA'S MAKING
CHOICES. Terry: CONGRATULATIONS,
AMANDA. THREE ACTS ARE THROUGH, FOUR
HAVE GONE HOME. AFTER THE BREAK, WE'LL REVEAL
WHO'S GETTING THE LAST SPOTS IN THE TOP FIVE.
AND DON'T FORGET, KODI LEE, TEDDY SWIMS, AND NEAL SCHON ARE
ALSO COMING UP! STAY RIGHT THERE!
** Terry: THIS IS A HOTHOUSE OF
NERVES RIGHT NOW. SO FAR, THREE ACTS HAVE MADE IT
INTO THE TOP FIVE. HAYDEN KRISTAL, CELIA MUNOZ, AND
AMANDA MAMMANA. THERE ARE ONLY TWO SPOTS LEFT IN
THIS WEEK'S TOP FIVE. THOSE RESULTS ARE COMING UP.
FIRST, SIMON AND HOWIE RECENTLY WENT TO CHECK OUT OUR SHOW, "AGT
LAS VEGAS LIVE." BUT OF COURSE, WHEN THOSE TWO
GET TOGETHER, THEY JUST CAN'T RESIST MESSING WITH PEOPLE.
CHECK THIS OUT.
**
"AMERICA'S GOT TALENT." DO YOU WANT TO SEE THE SHOW?
I WOULD LOVE TO SEE THE SHOW. WE ARE HERE, BUDDY.
LOOK AT THAT.
**
OH, MY GOD. Simon: THIS IS LIKE A
REUNION. FIRST OF ALL, I GET A CHANCE TO
SAY THANK YOU TO THE CAST AND THE CREW BECAUSE WITHOUT YOU
GUYS, WE ARE NOTHING. Howie: AND TO SEE THE ACTUAL
CULMINATION OF THAT DREAM COME TRUE IS JUST SO EXCITING.
AND THIS IS THE BEST SHOW IN VEGAS.
**
CAN I HAVE SOME FUN WITH THEM? OH, I DON'T KNOW.
Howie: DO YOU HAVE ANY MORE OF THESE?
HELP ME WITH THIS. IT'S LIKE I'M A NEW MAN.
Simon: IS HOWIE COMING IN? I DON'T THINK HE'S HERE.
Howie: HE'S HERE, GOOF BALL. Simon: THAT'S TERRIFYING.
Howie: IF YOU THINK THAT'S TERRIFYING, WHAT ABOUT THAT
HEAD? Simon: WHAT IS THAT DOING
HERE? Howie: IT WAS MY FAVORITE
MOMENT LAST SEASON. Simon: ONE THING COMES TO
MIND. RETIREMENT.
Howie: LET'S HAVE SOME FUN WITH THE PEOPLE.
Simon: SO ANYTHING I SAY, YOU HAVE TO SAY AND DO.
DO I? Simon: ANYTHING.
HI, WELCOME TO THE AGTVIP EXPERIENCE.
Simon: HOWIE, CAN YOU HEAR ME?
Howie: YES, YOU HAVE A VERY RECOGNIZABLE VOICE.
IT IS OUR PLEASURE TO -- Simon: CAN YOU MAKE YOUR
VOICE A LITTLE HIGHER? IT IS SO NICE --
Simon: THAT'S TOO MUCH. JUST DON'T TALK TOO MUCH.
YOU'RE TOO RECOGNIZABLE. STAND RIGHT HERE, FOLLOW ME.
Simon: WE'LL HAVE TO DO THE SECURITY CHECKS.
CAN WE SEE THE SOLES OF YOUR SHOES, PLEASE?
LET ME SEE THE SOLES. Simon: HOWIE, ASK FOR PROOF
OF THEM BEING VERY IMPORTANT PEOPLE.
Howie: IS THERE ANY WAY TO PROVE THEY'RE IMPORTANT?
YOU CAN'T BE JUST JOE PUBLIC, YOU HAVE TO BE IMPORTANT.
OKAY. Howie: WE DON'T HAVE TIME.
HAVE A SEAT. Simon: STAND UP.
SIT DOWN. Howie: EVERYBODY DOWN.
I WOULD IMAGINE THEY'RE BELOW THE LEVEL OF PERFORMANCE WE'RE
GOING TO USE FOR THE PROMOS. THAT WAS EXTREMELY RUDE.
Simon: I DON'T MEAN TO BE RUDE, BUT I DON'T THINK YOU'RE
IMPORTANT. Howie: I DON'T THINK YOU'RE
IMPORTANT. DON'T SAY IT IN FRONT OF US.
Simon: MY JOB IS TO GET HIM PUNCHED.
YOU PUSH ONE OF THEM OVER AND BLAME IT ON ONE OF THEM.
Howie: ARE YOU JUST GETTING EVERYBODY ANGRY AT ME?
COME IN TIGHTER. OH, MY GOODNESS.
WE'RE SO SORRY ABOUT THAT. Howie: YOU'RE GOING TO GET ME
KILLED. OH, MY GOD.
I'VE NEVER SWEATED THIS MUCH IN MY LIFE.
I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE A FUN DAY. HE'S GOING TO GET ME KILLED.
Simon: COULD YOU ASK THE GUY WITH THE GLASSES TO STAND IN THE
CORNER, WE CAN'T USE HIM. Howie: IN THE CORNER,
BACK-FACING. I'M SERIOUS.
Simon: THE GUY WITH THE BLUE SHIRT, SAME, WE CAN'T USE YOU.
CAN YOU ALL FACE THE WALL. Howie: EVERYBODY, FACE THE
WALL. DON'T TURN AROUND.
Simon: WELCOME. IT WAS ALL HIM.
FACE THE WALL. IT'S SOMETHING YOU CAN BUY
WHEN YOU PURCHASE YOUR TICKET, YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE SOME
IMPORTANT PERSON. Howie: WOULD YOU LIKE TO
SPEAK TO THE MANAGER? IT WASN'T ME, IT WAS HIM SAYING
IT. YOU ALMOST GOT ME KILLED.
WHAT DO YOU THINK OF SIMON COWELL?
Simon: BY THE WAY, YOU'RE FIRED, GET OUT OF HERE.

ONE MORE TIME FOR SARA JAMES. NOW, SOFIA, WE STARTED WITH 11.
WE ARE DOWN TO FIVE. HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT THE
RESULTS SO FAR? I MEAN, I AM SO HAPPY AND SO
EXCITED, I CANNOT EVEN BELIEVE THIS NIGHT, BECAUSE EVERYONE HAS
BEEN SO GOOD. BUT I THINK, AMERICA, YOU KNOW,
IS THE ONE THAT HAS DECIDED. AND I THINK THAT THEY HAVE DONE
RIGHT. Terry: RIGHT.
YOU'RE RIGHT. OKAY.
WHEN YOU AUDITION ON "AGT," IT CAN BE THE START OF A
LONG AND INCREDIBLE JOURNEY. FOR KODI LEE, IT WAS THE
BEGINNING OF A DREAM LIFE THAT HAS TAKEN HIM ALL THE WAY TO
PERFORMING IN VEGAS. TAKE A LOOK.
WHEN I THINK BACK AT HIS FIRST AUDITION, I WAS A SCARED
MOM AND HE WAS AN EXCITED YOUNG MAN READY TO SHOW THE WORLD WHAT
HE HAD. * MAMA SAID I FEEL THE PROPHECY,
BE SOMETHING GREATER * YOU REALLY WANT THIS DREAM OF
YOUR CHILD TO COME TRUE. THE WINNER IS --
AND THE WORLD OPENED THEIR EYES AND SAW HIM.
KODI LEE! I STILL HEAR THAT ALL THE
TIME. IT WAS A DREAM COME TRUE.
UNBELIEVABLE. WHEN "AGT" ASKED US TO GO TO
VEGAS AND BE A HEADLINER, OF COURSE I WAS NERVOUS, IT'S LIKE
A REAL JOB, YOU GO FIVE TIMES A WEEK, YOU GO TWO SHOWS A NIGHT.
I THOUGHT, OH, NO, WILL HE BE ABLE TO HANDLE IT.
DO YOU LIKE YOUR JOB? I LOVE MY JOB!
I LOVE PERFORMING EVERY SINGLE NIGHT.
I LOVE THE APPLAUSE. HE LOVES THE APPLAUSE, HE
EATS IT UP. SO MANY PEOPLE, OH, MY GOSH.
HE WANTS TO CONTINUE TO INSPIRE PEOPLE AND TO SHOW THEM
THAT YOU CAN DO IT. MUSIC MAKES ME FEEL GOOD AND
HAPPY AND I WANT EVERYBODY ELSE TO FEEL HAPPY JUST LIKE ME.
I LOVE COMING BACK TO "AGT." I CAN'T WAIT.
I FEEL LIKE I'M IN MY HAPPY PLACE.
HECK YES. Terry: SIMON, KODI IS A GREAT
"AGT" CHAMPION, ISN'T HE? Simon: I THINK KODI DEFINES
"AMERICA'S GOT TALENT," I REALLY, REALLY DO.
I REMEMBER HIS AUDITION LIKE IT WAS YESTERDAY.
I REMEMBER EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED BEFORE, DURING, AFTER.
IT'S ONE OF THOSE MOMENTS I WILL NEVER FORGET.
AND I'M THRILLED FOR HIM TONIGHT AGAIN.
Terry: ME TOO. YOU CAN CATCH KODI IN OUR SHOW
"AGT LAS VEGAS LIVE" AT THE LUXOR.
GO TO NBC.COM/AGTMAKEITFLY FOR INFO AND TICKETS.
