Let me introduce you to another of Dubai's most excellentest visionarinesses:
From it's website: "Western City was designed using state-of-the-art technology combined with historical elements to create a country environment for tourists by including farms, cowboy shows, and sound and light shows. ...Shows take place the whole day until night giving the public enough time to enjoy each respective show. The public may even choose which show they wish to see at their own convenience, and these shows take place everyday so they may even see them again. The shows involve cowboys driving cattle, Indians chasing buffaloes, wagons of settlers, etc……."
Now, I am thoroughly convinced of the subtlety, class, and cultural tact of this future development, but I would like to clarify a few things about these state-of-the-art shows. For one, are the Indians chasing buffaloes AND wagons of settlers? And secondly, will they import real live American Injuns? I'm sure it would be cheaper if these Indians (like all the other minimum-wage workers in Dubai) were played Phillipinos. Or India-Indians. In leather chaps.
Actually, I'm quite sure I've already seen some of that in an evening entertainment venue in Deira...
Yeeeehaw!
