Copyright 2018 NPR. To see more, visit KELLY MCEVERS, HOST: There were more than 20,000 people at the outdoor concert last night when the shooting started. It was during the last act of a three-day country music festival. It's one of the many festivals that makes Las Vegas Las Vegas. The horrific events have put a shadow over the usually festive city. NPR's Nathan Rott is in Las Vegas just down the street from the Mandalay Bay and the outdoor venue where the shooting took place. Hey there, Nate. NATHAN ROTT, BYLINE: Hey, Kelly. MCEVERS: So what's it like there today? ROTT: It's kind of surreal. I mean I'm standing right in front of the Luxor, which is that pyramid-shaped hotel you see in - if people have been to Las Vegas or if you looked at any of the pictures, which is right next to Mandalay Bay. I mean, I actually can look up right now at the kind of the gold plating and windows in Mandalay Bay and see where the two windows that the gunman broke out. You can see the windows there.
