Such as the archival video footage on the screens... which I imagine would need to be transferred to a digital format and (maybe) cleaned-up, etc.

Perhaps if she does do some type of residency there, as she's hinted it, then the show will be something a little more along the lines of what she talked about?

I have no idea about what it would cost to transfer the old videos but I do know that Elton John hired David LaChapelle to produce and design that fabulous Red Piano set for this venue. His Red Piano show got rave reviews for the design and how it wasn't a typical Elton concert. Elton said it cost him over 1 million dollars to design that set. Of course, Elton has a 50 million dollar contract with Caesars Perhaps Stevie will spend more on a more "designed" show as this becomes a more permanent gig for her...or perhaps this is it no matter how long these shows go on.
