Las Vegas Concert Calendar for the Summer at Red Rock

May 13 – Sean Kingston (NOTE: this concert has been moved inside to Rocks Lounge)

Born in the U.S. but raised in Jamaica gives Sean Kingston the background for his mix of hip hop and dancehall reggae. Kingston’s second single, “Beautiful Girls,” soared through the charts to No. 1 at only 16 years old. He’s also had Top 10 hits with the songs “Take You There” and “Fire Burning.” tickets to Sean Kingston

May 27 – Barenaked Ladies

The Barenaked Ladies had risen in popularity and throughout the music charts in Canada before making the move to the U.S. Once they did, the band soared up the mainstream charts with several Top 5 hits, including “It’s All Been Done,” “One Week” and “Pinch Me,” among others. tickets to Barenaked Ladies

June 3 – Goo Goo Dolls

The Goo Goo Dolls released several albums before becoming a well-known name, but once they did, they blew up. Songs like “Name,” “Slide,” “Better Days” and “Give A Little Bit” all were Top 5 hits and “Iris” and “Black Balloon” received Grammy nominations. tickets to Goo Goo Dolls

June 10 – O.A.R.

The band O.A.R., short for Of A Revolution, got their start as classmates at Ohio State University in the late ’90s. It didn’t take long before they were headlining gigs and made a national name for themselves on the jam band and mainstream circuit. Songs like “That Was a Crazy Game of Poker,” “Love and Memories,” “Heard the World” and “Shattered” have provided the band with a consistent fan base throughout today. tickets to O.A.R.

June 17 – Steel Pulse

British reggae band Steel Pulse incorporates the best of roots rock reggae while fusing it with elements of Latin and jazz music. Throughout its career, the band has received multiple Grammy nominations for albums like Victims, that featured the single “Taxi Driver,” as well as Rastafari Centennial and Rage and Fury. They also won a Grammy for the album Babylon the Bandit that features the song “Not King James Version.” tickets to Steel Pulse

June 24 – Gavin DeGraw

Singer songwriter Gavin DeGraw got what seemed slow, but was a sure start in the music scene following the release of his debut album Chariot in 2003. He gained a small following in New York the year it was released, but by 2004, DeGraw had a Top 10 hit with the single “I Don’t Want to Be” off the album. The album was then re-released as Chariot + Stripped where the original title track “Chariot” soared through the charts and the album earned double platinum certification. He continued to have hit songs, including “Follow Through” and “In Love with a Girl.” tickets to Gavin DeGraw

July 1 – Grace Potter & The Nocturnals

Grace Potter and the Nocturnals are like a modern-day version of Tina Turner stroking the microphone in a spangled mini-dress while fronting the Rolling Stones circa Sticky Fingers. The proof is there for all to hear on the band’s third album for Hollywood Records, hitting Spring 2010, and marks an artistic breakthrough for a vital young band caught in the act of fulfilling its immense promise. Little wonder that Grace and her cohorts have chosen to title it, directly and emphatically, Grace Potter and the Nocturnals. tickets to Grace Potter

July 8 – Puddle of Mudd

The alt-metal quartet Puddle of Mudd has several hit songs to its name, including “Blurry,” “Drift & Die,” “She Hates Me” and “Away From Me,” among others. The band has continuously released albums, with the most recent Icon: The Best of Puddle of Mudd in November 2010. tickets to Puddle of Mudd

July 15 – Neon Trees

Like their name, Neon Trees are a combination of slick pop hooks and sturdy organic rock, both melodic and hard-hitting, their anthems of adolescent angst, longing, love lost and found, delivered with the kind of heart-on-the-sleeve passion that only comes from hard work and commitment. tickets to Neon Trees

July 29 – Lifehouse

The alt-metal quartet Puddle of Mudd has several hit songs to its name, including “Blurry,” “Drift & Die,” “She Hates Me” and “Away From Me,” among others. The band has continuously released albums, with the most recent Icon: The Best of Puddle of Mudd in November 2010. tickets to Lifehouse

August 5 – Weezer

Weezer first hit the music scene in the mid-’90s and has been a driving force ever since. With initial singles like “Undone (The Sweater Song),” “Buddy Holly” and “Say it Ain’t So,” they became a household name. The band has gone on hiatus several times throughout the years for members to work on side projects. They joined forces once again and the 2005 song “Beverly Hills” off the album Make Believe received platinum status, keeping Weezer that household name. tickets to Weezer

Interview with Las Vegas Band: Otherwise

EVEN WHEN, ESPECIALLY when, it comes to music, Station Casinos loves locals. Our entertainment managers build strong ties with many local bands, often booking them at our various casino lounges, showrooms, clubs and pools. We help local bands connect with new and old fans through our facebook pages and we talk them up on twitter, and share blog space with them just like this. GVR recently announced an upcoming show with Las Vegas’ favorite hard rockers, Otherwise. The Otherwise show at Green Valley Ranch is April 2, there’s no cover and we welcome those 21+. (Come early if you want a seat!)  We recently caught up with Otherwise front man, Las Vegas native, Adrian Patrick:

Adrian, you and your band mates in Otherwise have been busy! Congratulations on an exciting year. Where have you been recently?

2010 was a break-out year for us Wise-Ones; we had the opportunity to tour twice last year: during the summer on the Rockstar Mayhem Festival with Korn, Rob Zombie, Five Finger Death Punch, Atreyu & In This Moment, and then again on a winter tour with In This Moment, Non-Point & Taking Dawn. So we were able to gain a lot of exposure across the entire nation & up into Canada, as well.

What’s the history of Otherwise, in a nutshell? Are you all from Las Vegas?

Yes, 3 out of 4 of us are born & bred here in Vegas. My brother & I started the band back in 2004 when we realized neither of us were going to play pro football! We needed to find a way to give our parents the life they deserve, while still feeding the fire within ourselves.

How did you connect with In This Moment, and what can you share with our readers about that experience?

We linked up with In This Moment through Grammy-nominated producer Kevin Churko. They needed a male-vocalist for their rock-metal duet “The Promise” so Kevin recommended yours truly, after we recorded our single “Lighthouse” with him. “The Promise” is currently in the Top 30 on the Billboard Active Rock chart & the rest, as they say, is musical history. In This Moment was one of our favorite bands before getting the opportunity to work with them, so it was the experience of a lifetime to get a chance to become friends with them; we’re blessed to know that band.

The rock scene is pretty tight here, isn’t it? Any area bands that Otherwise wants to give a shout-out?

The Vegas scene is pretty cool, TAKING DAWN & ADELITA’S WAY are two bands that have done well for all us Sin City rocker-boys by signing major-label deals & touring the world. Mike Stanley from CONFLICT OF INTEREST, Chase Grijalva from FALL IN VAIN & myself have been through a lot of the same struggles together. Plus, we have the support of some of the best venues in the nation thanks to remarkable people like Monica Reeves at Station Casinos, Holmie Pooser at the House of Blues & Mark Hornsby at the Black Door.

Are you a Mac or a PC? iPhone, or Droid?

None of the above, I use my cell phone strictly for texting purposes only… that’s all I need!

You’re playing in the same room Steel Panther packs on a weekly basis, so I’ll ask you some of the same questions I asked them:

Van Halen or Van Hagar? Definitely a Diamond Dave fan! (Note: a.k.a. Van Halen)

Ozzy or Lemmy? Since Kevin Churko did his last two albums, I have to go with Ozzy!

April 2nd at Ovation inside Green Valley Ranch is going to be a special night. Anything special we can say to the local Otherwise fans?

We are very lucky & grateful to have the kind of support that we do, here in our beloved Las Vegas. Yes, we’ve endured some very dark times as a band, but we’ve also seen the brightest Light together, & that’s largely thanks to the people here in this city who constantly motivate & inspire us to continue doing what we love. We’re always striving to make our supporters proud to call themselves Wise-Ones.

Las Vegas UFC 128 Viewing Parties at Station Casinos

Oops! You found an older post.
Get it on over here for information about our UFC Viewing Parties for this weekend!

BONES JONES JUST defeated Ryan Bader on February 5 – and the UFC wasted no time in getting the dynamic young fighter back in the Octagon. Some people were shocked that Jones was awarded a title fight so early in his career, and in such a competitive division (light heavyweight).  To others, it makes perfect sense. Bones has an insane reach advantage, great wrestling, and Jiu-Jitsu skills that have outmatched every UFC opponent, with the exception of Matt Hamill, who won when Jones was disqualified for using illegal strikes.

Watch UFC 128 at Station Casinos in Las Vegas.

Shogun Rua is on quite a roll himself. Rua looked strong taking the belt in his rematch with Lyoto Machida after their tough, close first match the first time around. Before that he knocked out UFC Legends Chuck Liddell and Mark Coleman.

Don’t miss the UFC debut of The California Kid, Uriah Faber, versus Eddie Wineland. Faber was a longtime champion in the WEC. At 5’6, 135 lbs., you’ll rarely see his type of strength, speed and toughness.

Fans, this fight card is stacked! Other exciting fighters to watch are: Jim Miller, Nate Marquardt, Kurt Pellegrino, Mike Pyle, and Mirko Cro Cop (vs. Brendan Schaub at heavyweight) – don’t blink, this could go either way in a split second. Blogger’s tip: Don’t miss Edson Barboza vs. Anthony Njokuani at 155lbs. This won’t be the fight people are talking about going into the event, but it has a high likelihood of being the fight you’re talking about after UFC 128.

Fertitta-Led Group Reaches Agreement to Acquire Green Valley Ranch Resort

LAS VEGAS – Station Casinos, LLC (“New Station”), the entity formed to acquire most of the properties and assets previously owned by debtor-in-possession Station Casinos, Inc., announced today that it has reached agreement with Green Valley Ranch Gaming, LLC (“GVR”) to purchase all of the assets of Green Valley Ranch Resort for $500 million through a pre-packaged plan of reorganization (the “Plan”). The Plan will result in Green Valley Ranch Resort becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of New Station. More than 90% of the dollar amount and a majority of the holders of the first lien debt of GVR have agreed to support the Plan. Financing for the purchase will include a new credit facility.

Fertitta Entertainment will manage Green Valley Ranch Resort under a long-term management agreement and all of the existing employees at the property will be retained. “We are pleased to have reached agreement with the first lien lenders to acquire Green Valley Ranch Resort,” said Frank Fertitta III, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Fertitta Entertainment. “This transaction will allow us to keep Green Valley Ranch Resort in the Station Casinos’ family, retain all of our team members, and continue to serve our loyal guests, all of which are very important to us,” continued Fertitta.

New Station anticipates that the Plan will be filed with the Bankruptcy Court in April and, subject to regulatory approvals, the bankruptcy will be concluded by the end of the second quarter of 2011.

UPDATED: She Won!

SHE WON! Congratulations Brittney for being named Las Vegas’ Sexiest Server by SpyOnVegas.com. Pictures below.

Thanks for voting for Brittney!

WHEN THE SC Blog heard one of our very own was competing in the Spy on Vegas “Sexy Server Contest,” our first thought was “Are there pictures?” Yes, there are pictures.

But our second thought was: How can we help?

So we caught up with Brittney, bartender at our Revolver Saloon at Santa Fe Station, to learn a little more about her, some tips on being cool at Revolver and the contest.

Tell us a little about yourself – what makes you different from every other bartender in the city?
So many bartenders around town seem inhospitable and look at you as if you’re simply a dollar sign. What makes me different from other bartenders in the city is that I make it a point to give my customers a great experience by being gracious and inviting. I always smile and am as friendly as possible so my guests can leave with a great experience, not just empty pockets!


Can you share with us five tips for a first-timer’s visit to Revolver?

  1. Revolver has a casual atmosphere with a top-quality level of service. No need for ties and heels but wear comfortable shoes so you can partake in hours of drinking and dancing!
  2. Line Dance and Two-Step lessons are offered Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays 8:15-9:00pm. Don’t be scared to come down because you aren’t necessarily into Line Dancing or Country music. Revolver’s resident DJ, Frank Rebelo (AKA DJ Sinner), does an amazing job of mixing together all types of music so you’ll hear everything from old and new Country to Dance music to Top 40 hits. You’re almost guaranteed to end up on the dance floor at some point in time!
  3. In order to get a bartender’s attention, definitely DO NOT yell across the bar or violently wave your arms. Revolver gets very busy, so the customers that wait for their turn patiently and politely will definitely receive our attention. The biggest things to remember are: know what you want to order, have your money ready to pay and pay attention to the bartender so you can place your order when she’s ready!
  4. Revolver has a great selection of entertainment including beer pong, pool tables and video games. Every Thursday we hold a beer pong tournament with a cash prize. We open at 8 so get here early so you can get some practice time in before the tables fill up…some of these guys are really good!
  5. There are amazing drink specials every night at Revolver, including $2 Jack on Fridays and $2 Jager on Saturdays. Make sure to take advantage of these great deals. You can always check out our website (nightlifestation.com) for information on what specials we have each night. If you’re a fan of Revolver on facebook you can even participate to win things like free bottle service or concert tickets. Our team is all about taking care of our fans!

We hear that you’ve worked at Revolver since Day 1 – any good stories you can share?
Revolver holds theme nights like toga parties, superhero nights and black light parties. During our 70’s skate nights, I would see a flood of sequins and afros break dancing in roller skates to the Bee Gees. At Halloween for our costume contest, we had a gigantic Incredible Hulk and Big Foot getting down on the dance floor. We never have a dull theme night!

Last and final big question of the week – you’re one of the contestants in the Spy on Vegas Sexy Server Contest and voting doesn’t end till 2/20. Anything you can share with our readers on why they should vote for you?

Readers should vote for me because not only do I exude confidence and poise, but I am also a warm and authentic person. I’m not just in this competition for myself but I’m representing Revolver and Station Casinos because they deserve recognition for being such wonderful companies.
