Jay Leno
Comedian never tires of stand-up Jay Leno didn’t have to maintain a prolific schedule of live appearances while he hosted The Tonight Show, but comedy hasn’t stopped firing his engines since he became a comedy mainstay in the ’70s. Now liberated of his nightly hosting duties, he parlayed his love of cars into CNBC series Jay Leno’s Garage and has more time than ever to create fresh material. He spoke with Las Vegas Magazine’s Matt Kelemen about his formative years during stand-up’s golden age. You bought your first truck before you could drive it and patiently worked on it until you were old enough to drive. It seems like you applied the same approach as a comedian. Yeah, that’s probably true. … What I used to do is in Boston I would go to clubs and I put $50 on the bar and I would say, “Let me get up and tell some jokes. If I get no laughs and people hate me, you keep the $50, if I do good, give me my $50 back.” Once in a while I lost $50, but for the most part it was OK. That’s how I got started. By the time I got to the Improv and Catch a Rising Star and all those places in New York or L.A., I had been doing it for a year or so, so I wasn’t totally green. I read that you used to do George Carlin’s Class Clown album in your head and time it so when you reached the end of Carlin’s material, you’d segue into your own. Most comedians, the first five minutes determine who you are and it’s hard to come up with that first five minutes. It’s hard to just start talking, but that was for a class. I went to Emerson College. You had to give this oral report in public speaking class. I was in the hall doing the Class Clown bit before I went on. In my mind, I was getting laughs. I actually told George that story years later.
22 1.22.17 LasVegasMagazine.com
How much do you recall about your first trips to New York to get onstage at Budd Friedman’s Improv? I used to work at a car dealership, and we would have to pick up cars in New York. These were the days of putting them on flatbed trucks and stuff. So we would have to go down to Elizabeth, N.J., get the car off the dock and then I would take a detour and stop in New York and try to get on at the Improv. Friedman was interested in managing you for a time, right? He did manage me for a short time, and he thought I was a real rich kid because every time I pulled up I had a different Rolls Royce. I didn’t tell him I was working for a car salesman. He was like, “Who is this kid with all these cars?” What was it like when you first started coming to Vegas? Did Vegas audiences take to you right away? I used to open for Tom Jones, Johnny Mathis. I opened for everybody in Vegas. I enjoyed it. It was fun. I remember when Caesars Palace was the only hotel that far out on the Strip. It was Caesars and then the Flamingo right across the street. I used to think, “Why’d you build this place in the middle of nowhere?
Everything’s downtown. This is crazy.” And of course now it’s all built to the hilt, but it was fun. I liked it. It was tricky, but you know when you’re in your 20s and you’re playing to people in their 50s and 60s it’s different. It’s not your audience. Now it’s comfortable and it’s fun because I’m playing to people in my own age group.
What’s ahead for the next season of Jay Leno’s Garage? Oh, I don’t know! We just started this new season, so we went down, we did an interview with President Bush driving around in a pickup truck. That was kind of fun. We’re just trying to do more interesting, different things with the show.

Even More Need for Speed
Exotics Racing already has an impressive lineup of elite automobiles, and this month they’ve added even more firepower to the experience. Joining the ranks of some of the world’s most mindblowing cars are the Ferrari F12 (at 730 horsepower, the most powerful car at Exotics Racing), Acura NSX and Porsche 911 GT3 RS. “Our three newest cars represent the spectrum of supercar greatness,” said Exotics Racing co-founder Romain Thievin. Driving packages start at $499 for the Ferrari F12, $449 for the Porsche 911 GT3 RS and $299 for the Acura NSX. For more information, call 702.405.7223.
Oil’s Well
Olive oil is a huge part of the true Italian restaurant experience, and B&B Ristorante at The Venetian hosts a multicourse dinner on Jan. 25 using the first pressing of extra virgin olive oil from the Medici-era villa Tenuta di Capezzana, a 345-acre farm that’s produced olive oil since the times of Charlemagne. The six-course menu includes crostini-chicken liver, insalata pinzimonio, Tuscan soup, tordelli with Swiss chard and ricotta, an Italian-style T-bone steak served with sautéed mixed baby kale and olive oil gelato. The one-time-only experience begins at 7 p.m. and costs $165 per person. For more information, call 702.266.9977.
La La Land. The soil used in the arena at Tournament of Kings at Excalibur is mixed with synthetic fibers to create a better cushion when the show’s stunt riders fall off their horses. El Cortez Hotel & Casino celebrated 75 years in 2016. It opened in 1941 with a casino, restaurant, café, floor show and 59 rooms. Longbar at The D is just as the name advertises: At approximately 100 feet long, it’s reputedly the longest bar in the state of Nevada.
Starting the Year Right
Find special offerings at Las Vegas’ restaurants An important component of Chinese New Year in Las Vegas is the food—many restaurants offer special menus during the holiday, while others offer themed items honoring the Spring Festival, which starts Jan. 24. Holiday food specials are in plentiful supply at The Linq Promenade, including special rates and offers at the Ghiradelli Ice Cream and Chocolate Shop (holiday-themed tins), Flour & Barley (kung pao shrimp pizza), Virgil’s Real Barbecue (hush puppy samples and a Year of the Rooster drink with Espolón Blanco tequila), Sprinkles (Year of the Rooster cupcakes), and the Tsingtao Booth (specialty cocktails and beer from one of China’s largest breweries). More culinary specials are available at hotel restaurants. Over at MGM Grand’s Grand Wok and Sushi Bar, which is adorned with Chinese New Year décor, a holiday menu from Jan. 27-Feb. 5 boasts pan-fried filet mignon, braised sea bass, and broccoli with crab meat gravy. Pop over to Mandalay Bay’s Noodle Shop from Jan. 27Feb. 1 for holiday treats including pork medallion glazed in sweet and sour sauce, General Tso chicken, and ginger beef and crispy prawns tossed in pineapple sauce. Dragon Noodle Co. & Sushi Bar offers a three-course menu featuring Gong Hei Fat Choy (braised dried oysters and black moss) on Jan. 28. –Las Vegas Magazine Staff For more information about Las Vegas’ Chinese New Year events and attractions, go to page 28 and pages 52-53.

Few entertainers make the effort to connect with their audiences like Wayne Newton does. Over the course of almost six decades, Newton has given his all during every show to give his audiences what they want, singing his greatest songs and playing more than a dozen instruments, making it impossible for anyone to deny his commitment and passion. Now Mr. Las Vegas is back at Bally’s, only this time he’s connecting in a different way—relaying stories from his life and answering audience questions in Wayne Newton: Up Close and Personal. Whether discussing becoming a musical icon while still in his early 20s, entertaining U.S. troops for decades or breeding Arabian horses, he’ll have more than enough material to keep audiences enthralled. As an added bonus, Newton will play a few tunes, from “Danke Schoen” to “Daddy Don’t You Walk So Fast.” Even if you’ve been to numerous Newton performances before, this show guarantees a side of him you’ve never seen, or heard, before. –Ken Miller
The Great Humiliator The King and His Realm In Cirque du Soleil’s Michael Jackson ONE, four “misfits” personify aspects of Michael Jackson’s character. “Beat It” rocks the house through the theater’s surround sound system as dancers in white fedoras re-create iconic Jackson moves.

Throwing aside the traditional stand-up comedy routine, Vinnie Favorito unleashes his fire-breathing improvisational wit upon the audience, which is impossible to shield. He’s unrelenting, unapologetic and totally unfiltered. No subject is sacred; Vinnie is going to find a way to make fun of you. But humiliating people is practically Vinnie’s love language. It’s his great equalizer, for how can we expect to love each other for our differences if we can’t laugh at them, too? –Alex Haase Westgate Las Vegas, 9 p.m. Wed.-Sun., $49-$100, $125 meet and greet plus tax and fee. 800.222.5361

Opinionated and On Point Name a controversial subject and chances are excellent that comedian Eddie Griffin will discuss it during his stand-up comedy act at the Rio. Be prepared to listen to side-splitting, irreverent and shocking dialogue that touches religion, the Bible, politics, sex, celebrities, racism and, oh, just about anything that could offend someone. But this uncensored routine is thoroughly embraced by fans of this funnyman, who starred in the popular television sitcom Malcolm & Eddie and had roles in movies like Scary Movie 3, Double Take, Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo, Deuce Bigalow: European Gigolo and Undercover Brother. For a comic who didn’t know what it meant to be working “blue” in the comedy field, he has now perfected this genre, and you’ll hear him express opinions that many of us may think but wouldn’t verbalize. Griffin is here to entertain, and that he does.
Laughing is supposed to be good for the soul, and there’s plenty of that. There may even be pithy comments from Griffin about the soul and what we all tend to believe in. –Penny Levin

Celebrating the New Year One of the most gorgeous sights in Las Vegas has to be the Bellagio Conservatory and Botanical Gardens. Periodically, the displays inside the conservatory change out, including during Chinese New Year This year the displays, which can be viewed through March 4, are as spectacular as they’ve ever been. Enter through the Moon Gate, where you’ll find enormous representations of ding pots, along with incense burning for luck and huge rose lanterns created from lentils, and massive sunflowers. For the display, the Bellagio
relied on the vision of Ed Libby, the celebrated New York-based artist known for his spectacular events. Inside, to celebrate the Year of the Rooster, you’ll find a rooster perched on top of a stylized mountain, and a flock of chickens below. Stylized Chinese design elements, with drums, crystal and gold chandeliers, architectural elements accent the gardens throughout. In addition, you’ll get a sneak peek at the planned Bellagio Shanghai. –Nina King Bellagio, open 24 hours daily. 702.693.7111
Porto Alameda While enjoying an entrée at Brand Steakhouse at Monte Carlo, make sure to pair it with one of the restaurant’s signature cocktails like the Porto Alameda, a port-based cocktail named for St. George Distillery, based on Alameda Island in the Bay Area. It’s a wonderful blend of Remy Martin VSOP cognac, Sandeman Founders Reserve Porto, St. George Spiced Pear, St. George NOLA coffee, blackberry purée and lemon juice, and it’s topped with a chocolate-dusted dehydrated pear slice. Enjoy!

Knight of Your Life We could describe it as just another night out at the fights. But you’d know we were just jousting. And we don’t even know how to joust. We only know how to josh. But look down there, in the arena. They know how to joust. Let us tell you about Tournament of Kings while you’re chowing down on Cornish game hen—all part of the dinner-show experience, sans utensils, so tear that meat with your teeth, you medieval face-stuffers. Kings, knights, czars and wizards meet swords, knives, lances and spikes in this King Arthur-era face-off rife with warriors on horseback—both villainous and
virtuous—in epic battles, pretty maidens flashing some flesh, javelin-throwers displaying their skills and even a bit of fire-breathing action. It’s a vivid immersion into a glamorous, fascinating era. Guests are thrust into the colorful tableau and become the lifeblood of the show. Split into cheering sections for dueling countries, they are encouraged to scream heartily on cue as their respective combatants clash, charging at each other with titanium weapons and knocking each other off horseback, flying into the air and then tumbling into the dirt. –Steve Bornfeld

Whether you’re looking for a relaxing brunch with Strip views or a romantic dinner in a plush environment, you’ll find it at Giada, Food Network star Giada De Laurentiis’ namesake restaurant showcasing the star’s California-influenced Italian cooking. At dinner, simple spaghetti, served with shrimp and lemon, somehow is so elegant. Other options include pan-roasted salmon, or maybe a whole roasted chicken, cacciatore-style. Or consider the tasting menu—you’ll get an antipasti plate with such gems as savory pizza di pasta. For dessert, limoncello souffle is nicely tart, while De Laurentiis’ lemon-ricotta cookies are sandwiched with buttermilk and a refreshing raspberry gelato. There’s a reason those cookies are famous! –Nina King The Cromwell, 8 a.m.-2:30 p.m. & 5-11 p.m. daily, brunch 8 a.m.2:30 p.m. Fri.-Sun., lounge 9 a.m.midnight daily. 855.442.3271

A True Classic
Playing the Right Cards Not only is America’s Got Talent winner Mat Franco a world-class magician, he’s one of the most personable people you’d want to meet, self-effacing and funny. He heavily involves his audiences in his shows and even changes a key part of his show each night—hence the title, Magic Reinvented Nightly. In the production, he’s careful to include nods to some of the most famous sleight-of-hand magic acts of history, making cards appear from seemingly nowhere and making tissue paper balls “disappear”
while a hapless audience member cannot see what the audience can, all while mixing in some of the illusions he used on America’s Got Talent. Franco draws heavily on his childhood in telling the story of his rise to fame. Yes, Franco confounds his audience, but as he says, guessing the trick isn’t the point—it’s the connection you feel. –Ken Miller The Linq Hotel, 7 p.m. Sun.-Tues. & Thurs.-Fri., 4 & 7 p.m. Sat.

For more than 30 years, The Steak House at Circus Circus (702.794.3767) has been a perennial favorite. A mighty bone-in ribeye and a plate-size porterhouse are popular options, but a velvety petite filet mignon is yours for the taking. From the ocean, there’s grilled garlic shrimp, lobster tails, king crab legs, salmon or halibut. Each meal comes with soup or salad, baked bread, vegetables and garlic mashed potatoes, wild rice or a big baked potato. –Las Vegas Magazine Staff

Surreal Sensations
Capturing all the faces of life in motion Face it. They’re faceless. Facial expressiveness should not be on your list of expectations while experiencing the artistry of the masked, miming Jabbawockeez crew during their inventive production, Jreamz: Journey Within. Yet the purposeful facelessness only heightens the sensations you’ll feel in your head and heart as this surreal creation unfolds from the hip-hop dance group and America’s Best Dance Crew winners. Sleek choreography peppered with signature gravity-defying break dancing—literally, a head-spinning sight—frames a trippy tableau of music, 3-D video projections, physical comedy and up-close audience interaction that, as the title indicates, coalesces into an onstage

dreamscape. Our blank-faced, hollow-eyed, black-clad imps—named PJ, Style, Whimsicality, Audacity and Gee—move silently, with catlike grace, through their animated antics set to an eclectic soundtrack. Remixes of tunes by the Bangerz, Kid Cudi, Mark Ronson, Michael Jackson, Sting, Pharrell, Digital Underground and George Kranz—then making wide, wild swings to songs like the Beauty and the Beast theme—make up the musical tapestry. Projections whisk audience members into the far reaches of imagination—such as a frolic through a mushroom forest—though some play off pop culture references, such as the video game Street Fighter V.

This one involves the character of PJ as a zombie—a metaphor for a fellow living a mundane life. As the vivid atmospherics pour forth, the zombie is encouraged to bust some killer moves and awaken to the reinvigorating joys of a zesty life. And as an announcer informs us at the climax: “Choose life. Whatever you do, don’t be a zombie.” –Steve Bornfeld MGM Grand, 7 & 9:30 p.m. Thurs.-Sun., 7 p.m. Mon., 7 p.m. show only Jan. 22-23 & 26-27, starting at $49.99 plus tax and fee, VIP package available. 702.531.3826

You Should Know He’s Here In 2016, having a music video or a song on the radio or featured in a movie is an old-fashioned way of judging a hit. Rapper Sage the Gemini has had all those things, including three hit singles on the Billboard Hot 100 (“Gas Pedal,” “Red Nose,” “Good Thing”) and an appearance on the soundtrack for the seventh Fast & Furious movie. But these days, music success requires innovation, like when Snapchat featured Sage’s latest single, “Now & Later,” on its interactive New Lens filter. Sage is an old pro at using new media to reach an audience, having first achieved success thanks to a viral MySpace video for his 2008 song “You Should Know,” which racked up 3 million views. Since then, Sage has collaborated with superstars from hip-hop (Flo Rida, 2 Chainz, Ty Dolla $ign), R&B (Trey Songz, Tank, Jeremih) and pop (Chris Brown, Jordin Sparks, Nick Jonas) on a variety of singles, both as lead and featured artist. His second full-length album, Bachelor Party, is due out later this year, and promises to expand his sound even further. Whether you hear him on TV, on YouTube, on Snapchat or on some platform yet to be invented, Sage is pushing his music into the future. –Josh Bell

Latin Splash For 10 years now, Calibash has been the premier urban Latin music festival in Los Angeles, sponsored by local radio station Mega 96.3-FM and digital music app LaMusica and featuring the hottest artists in Latin pop and hip-hop. This year, the L.A. festival is joined by a Las Vegas edition, with performances from Ricky Martin, Don Omar, Nicky Jam and Wisin, among others. Martin is an international pop sensation whose crossover hits include “Livin’ La Vida Loca,” “She Bangs” and “Nobody Wants to Be Lonely.” Puerto Rican singer Don Omar is a reggaeton icon, one of the genre’s biggest-selling artists, whose most recent album, 2015’s The Last Don 2, made the Top 10 on both the Latin and rap Billboard charts. Nicky Jam is also a reggaeton star, who’s known for his long collaboration with superstar Daddy Yankee. And Wisin has had years of success as part of the duo Wisin & Yandel, and is now pursuing a successful solo career. Together they represent the pinnacle of Latin pop, and Vegas audiences have the chance to see them all in one place. –JB

A Great Mix There are certain things that just shouldn’t go together. Fish and ice cream. Snow and bicycles. And metalcore mixed with late ’90s TRLstyle pop. But somehow August Burns Red, the loud thrashers from Lancaster, Penn., took Britney Spears’ “Baby One More Time” and turned it into a screamo concert set piece. The band, which currently contains five members, plays loud and heavy. Even when covering the Christmas classic “Carol of the Bells,” it feels like these nice Christian boys just might punch you in the mouth if you cross them wrong. Of course, while covers are nice, the band has plenty of originals. “Identity” off 2015’s Found In Far Away Places features an almost spaghetti Western-like guitar breakdown followed by a completely different beat-down of a guitar solo and a raging refrain of “Stop living in denial / Stop loving the lie.” Its video shows an animated sea of angry creatures with live action band members. It’s another strange juxtaposition that the group has somehow made work. –Jason Harris Brooklyn Bowl at The Linq, 6 p.m. Jan. 26, starting at $23 plus fee. 702.862.2695

Carlos Santana and the connection between mind and music Look inside. Deep. Deeper. Now deeper still. Behold the essence of Carlos Santana. “Spirituality is something very tangible to give you assurance and a guarantee that the universe is abundant and at your service,” says the Rock and Roll Hall of Famer/Kennedy Center honoree/living-legend guitarist/Vegas headliner. “But you have to learn how to access it.” Not so fast, potential spiritualists. Evaluate your attitude first. “A lot of people today have mental paralysis: They’re arrogant, they don’t have trust, faith or belief in anything outside of, ‘the world is going to hell.’ They’re cynical, which is like cement in your brain.” Drain your brain of such negativity and you’re speaking the man’s language—of spirituality, not musicality. Few on this planet match this man’s talents. We can only gape in awe and let the music flow to our souls for a, well, spiritual experience. “Music gives a spiritual sense of order to the molecules in your brain and your lungs and your heart. Music reminds you of the forgotten song inside you,” says Santana, who ranked 15th on Rolling Stone’s list of 100 greatest guitarists. With 2014’s release of Corazon—his 37th album—Santana reaffirmed both his popularity and longevity by joining Barbra Streisand as the only artists in Billboard history to score at least

Where the Music Lives
Nightclub adds another star DJ to its stellar lineup Rising out of the ashes of the city’s first mega club, Pure, Omnia at Caesars Palace has done it bigger, better and more jaw-dropping. The running design theme is a cross-section of modern and vintage, with soft and sexy flourishes—and bold and seductive touches. However, one thing did remain the same as Pure: the expansive terrace that overlooks the lights of the neon Strip. On the terrace, guests can dance directly under the stars, order cocktails at the outdoor bar or book a luxurious VIP table that’s more reminiscent of a decked-out poolside cabana. Back inside, the 75,000-square-foot space continues with two levels and two separate rooms. The main room features the stunning
42 1.22.17 LasVegasMagazine.com
and massive kinetic LED chandelier that fluidly moves up and down, side to side, and morphs into different shapes while glowing all the colors of the rainbow. When the chandelier is in motion it’s definitely an Instagram moment you’ll want to document for the folks back home. On the mezzanine level, guests can book VIP tables that overlook the dance floor. Patrons can take it down a notch in size by visiting the Heart of Omnia—think ultra-lounge with a more intimate vibe, and the sounds of R&B and hip-hop. Omnia already boasts one of the more impressive rosters of residencies, including Calvin Harris (the top-earning EDM DJ of 2016, at $66 million), Martin Garrix and Afrojack (also on Forbes’ top 12 list), Steve Aoki, Armin van Buuren
and Borgeous. And on Dec. 30, they added yet another massive name to their list: Kaskade. As a longtime house-music DJ, Kaskade (real name: Ryan Gary Raddon) helped establish and grow the musical genre in his hometown of Chicago in the early 1990s and has since branched out around the world continually playing festivals, recording multiple studio albums, and garnering multiple Grammy nominations. Kaskade now adds his Omnia residency to his resume. The superstar DJ plays this Friday, Jan. 27, and returns again next month. As hot as Omnia has gotten over its relatively short history, it’s about to get even hotter. –Kiko Miyasato Caesars Palace, opens at 10 p.m. Tues. & Thurs.-Sun. 702.785.6200

Inventive Chinese cuisine keeps Aria’s Blossom bright 44 9.11.16 LasVegasMagazine.com
nosh cheers
There are few ethnic cuisines more integrated into the fabric of American culture than Chinese food. No matter how small of a town you hail from, you had a local Chinese joint dishing out chop suey, egg foo young and General Tso’s chicken—all hallmarks of Chinese-American cuisine. But not all Chinese cooking involves takeout containers and fortune cookies, so if you’re in search of an elevated experience, look no further than Aria, where tucked off the expansive main casino floor, Blossom waits. Entering the clean, contemporary room, awash in stone and wood, gives you a good idea of what’s to come. Blossom strives for authenticity with a menu that favors lesserknown fare. So while house-made pot stickers Aria with pork and cabbage are available as an 5:30-10:30 p.m. daily. appetizer, so is a salt-and-pepper rendition of 877.230.2742 crispy fried eggplant, delivering a bit of heat. And the most decadent of menu items—a hearty slice of goose liver wok-fried at superhigh heat with a crisped exterior giving way to an unctuous interior—is an atypical offering. From the sea, a ginormous Santa Barbara spot prawn arrives shell-on. Don’t be afraid to tear it apart with your hands and devour it completely, as the paper-thin carapace is where the intense ocean flavor is concentrated. For a land-based option instead, beef tenderloin, normally served with portobello Baijiu mushrooms in a black pepper sauce, can also mojito be ordered with a healthy helping of toasted garlic. In fact, Blossom prides itself in offering off-menu items; so don’t be afraid to inquire about your favorites. Which brings us to the pièce de résistance in a house specialty that has amassed its own cult following: the ma la fish. Its Western name—spicy water fish—hints as to what you’ll encounter with Chilean sea bass bathed in a Szechuan pepper and red chili-rich broth consisting of a combination of Chile and grape seed oils. The dish is complex and mind-numbingly hot, which is exactly why it remains off-menu, as chef Chi Kwun Choi refuses to lessen its spiciness for anyone. For an even more profound experience, pair it with spicy XO lobster fried rice. While rice typically cools the palate, this incarnation has a lingering heat. Mingling with it the Szechuan peppercorns of the ma la creates unforgettable electricity and mouth mayhem. Quench the heat with a drink as Blossom offers an intriguing selection of baijius: a high-alcohol spirit typically distilled from sorghum and similar to vodka. Baijiu isn’t for the faint of heart, so it might be best to explore the Baijiu Colada as an introduction to the Chinese liquor. The tropical juice base will transport you to a desert isle or a bar called O’Malley’s where you can plan your escape. If this isn’t enough, then save room for the mango pomelo sago: a cold, sweet tapioca dessert akin to soup, popular in Hong Kong. Sago may not be on your local Chinese restaurant’s menu, but that’s because Blossom is not your local Chinese restaurant.

Vice president keeps nightclub’s energy high For vice president of Play Management Angelo DiPietro, a friend’s repeated urging to check out Vegas became a career. When the Maine native graduated from the University of Maine, he decided to listen to his pal and move to the city, at least temporarily. Ten years later, he’s still here. DiPietro started out as a club promoter with Light Group and later moved to Hakkasan, but when Play Management started up, he became the company’s first employee, helping run Light Nightclub and Daylight Beach Club at Mandalay Bay. Today, he’s the company’s vice president, and takes care of many roles, planning marketing and making sure the customers and the artists playing Light all have what they need. And he likes working with his staff. “I love training

young hosts and seeing them get better, having them get the customers in and do well.” Outside of work, DiPietro and his wife have a passion for travel—Paris, Toronto and the Turks and Caicos islands are some favorites. In Vegas, one of the best things about his job is customer interaction. “I love having customers come out and say, ‘This was the best night of my life, or the best night of the year.’ Because for us, it’s a Tuesday or a Wednesday, but for them, it’s their one big trip of the year.” And he doesn’t want that feeling to end. “Hopefully, we grow this company into a 20-venue company. I love the hospitality industry. Some people don’t enjoy their job. I literally wake up every day excited to go to work.” –Nina King
When you select bottle service at Light Nightclub, you’re going to get more than just mixers delivered to the table—you’re going to get a presentation.

Of course, you’ll get those mixers as well. Cheers! –NK

Cock-a-doodle-do to you—and no, we’re not wishing you a good morning (though we certainly hope you have one). Actually, we’re wishing you a happy Year of the Rooster, as 2017 is known on the Chinese calendar. With celebratory festivities commencing Jan. 27 and stretching through Feb. 2, Las Vegas—just recovered from its massive New Year’s blowout—is geared to send the Chinese New Year rocketing off to a rollicking start as well. There’s no shortage of ways to party!
The Forum Shops photo by Jim K. Decker Photography
Anchoring the celebrations is the sixth annual edition of the Chinese New Year in the Desert Festival, Jan. 27-30 (702.848.2098, cnyinthedesert.com); unfolding across multiple locations. Among the highlights: a ribbon-cutting ceremony, featuring the Sichuan Song and Dance Theater Company at Fashion Show (Jan. 27, 6-9 p.m.); a parade in downtown Las Vegas (Jan. 28, starting at 11 a.m.), featuring extravagant Asian-themed floats, kicking off at Fremont and 11th streets and capped by community cultural performances, and school bands and orchestras combining for a “Dragon Fest Concert” at Container Park; and a ticketed benefit concert at The Linq Theater, again featuring the Sichuan company (Jan. 29, 2-4 p.m.). Acting as a touchstone, The Linq Promenade hosts performances throughout the festival from local Chinese communities and the Sichuan troupe on the Promenade Fountain Stage, plus “Dragon Dance” shows by the Lohan School of Shaolin daily at 6 p.m. Additionally, The Linq’s High Roller
observation wheel will glow red and gold in honor of the holiday, and also offers New Year-style frames for souvenir photos (available as well at the Eiffel Tower Experience at Paris Las Vegas), and see large-scale, live spray-painting demonstrations and purchase New Year-themed artwork from local artists. Vibrant, colorful spectacles for the eyes and ears—in the form of live dragon/lion dances—will be in abundance at numerous resorts, including a procession through the lobby at Aria (Jan. 28, 4 p.m.); one winding through the casino at MGM Grand (Jan. 29, 4 p.m.); and yet another through the Bellagio (Jan. 30, 6:30 p.m.). At The Forum Shop at Caesars, an enormous 12-foot-high, 22-foot-long dragon weighing 950 pounds sits at the entrance to the center near Caesars Palace casino. And more than 30,000 amber and red LED lights cover the giant creature. At The Palazzo Atrium, get your camera ready to capture images of Chinese New Year displays including a gigantic rooster and dragon. Those are just a few instances of incredible New Year art—pretty much everywhere you look, you’ll find holiday decorations and Chinese symbols of good luck festooning hotels and shops as the Year of the Rooster rules the Vegas roost.

As America inaugurates a brash new political era, Ralphie May’s unapologetic stand-up fits right in Tells it like it is … Says what we’re all thinking … Won’t apologize for telling it like it is and saying what we’re all thinking. So goes the theory that brought America its new president. But this is Vegas’ new comedianin-residence. “I’m a filthy, dirty animal that’s gonna rock this place!” says—make that exults—rotund, Dixie-bred Ralphie May, punctuating nearly every exclamation with a high-pitched giggle or a booming guffaw as he anticipates his new Harrah’s showcase of a whopping 60 performances in 2017. “I don’t want familyfriendly. I’m talking women with social coke habits. I like old-school Vegas, where you could (fill in the un-G-rated blank here) a cocktail waitress. Now everybody is like, ‘Assault!

Take a lesson with a very Vegas twist By Nina King It may sound like an oxymoron, but one of the best things to do on your vacation may be to take a class. Of course, these aren’t your normal lessons—Las Vegas wouldn’t be Las Vegas if things weren’t kicked up a notch. Yoga enthusiasts may be loath to leave their weekly workouts, even when they’re on

holiday, but they don’t have to. One of the newest yoga offerings on the Strip gets you going ’round and ’round—the High Roller at The Linq features Silent Savasana sessions daily from 11:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. with pro instructors. Headphones allow for a more focused lesson. The small class size (no more than six guests)
means individualized instruction, and the views are far beyond those of any typical yoga studio (a Monday through Wednesday sunset option makes that even better). (The Linq Promenade, 702.322.0537, reserve 24 hours in advance) Other excellent options include Canyon Ranch SpaClub at The Venetian, where you can
experience a range of classes from nutrition and fitness planning to yoga classes such as the Vinyasa Flow. Sessions are daily and times vary. Classes are $20 for drop-in classes, and are free if you have a treatment scheduled or have purchased a day pass. Stop by to find out what’s being offered when, then show up 15 minutes early. (The Palazzo, 702.767.3724) Enjoy a warrior pose (or the equivalent) at Yoga Among the Dolphins at Siegfried & Roy’s Secret Garden and Dolphin Habitat. The serene space features huge glass windows, where you’ll see the dolphins swimming by—and maybe striking a pose themselves. The class even allows spa access afterwards. (The Mirage, 702.791.7472) At The Venetian, get a crash course on Italy’s gondoliers (and The Venetian’s, too) in Gondola University. You’ll learn the skills involved in propelling the flat-bottomed boats through the water while serenading passengers, as well as a lot of the history of this art in the three-hour class. A gondolier training shirt and
hat are even included. Reserve your spot 48 to 72 hours before the class. (The Venetian, 702.607.3982, must be 13+) On Saturdays, “X” Burlesque University will give you a little more sashay in your step when you learn what that boa can tell your audience. First, find out how the dancers in these female revues apply makeup and try it out yourself. Then, learn about posture, costuming and dance moves—you’re certain to take these lessons home. (Flamingo, 702.733.3333, 18+) If you’ve ever watched The Walking Dead and thought to yourself, “I could do that,” head to Top Shot Las Vegas (3084 S. Highland Dr. Suite C, 702.478.8550). This unique venue features nonlethal ammunition, which means you’ll feel safer if you’re a newbie. Start your session with a laser trainer, or take one of Top Shot’s classes for in-depth learning. The Introduction to Handgun course goes over many aspects of gun safety, covering parts, operation, ammunition and a lot more. The beginner course is limited to eight people and offered several times a week. Follow-up and intermediate courses are also available. Prices and times vary. From gourmet food to gun safety, if you want to learn about it, there’s probably someone here who can teach you. Just remember, half the fun of learning is doing.

So Much Under the Hood
Brawny blokes who warm up the cold winter nights is what you can expect when you attend Australia’s Thunder From Down Under (Excalibur, 702.597.7600). If things get too hot, and sometimes they do, have no fear—a “Sydney firefighter” is near to keep things under control or maybe even add to the kinetic energy of the evening. He is only one of the exciting performers who work hard to make every woman’s fantasies
come true and bring to life some of the iconic characters such as Tarzan, a vampire, SWAT officer, military man, cowboy and many more. The internationally acclaimed, awardwinning male revue features these cheeky men with six-pack abs and appealing good looks. For 70 minutes, ladies’ hearts are fluttering and pulse rates are beating faster as these hunks dance, do gymnastics and interact with the audience.

Recently seen on television’s hit show The Doctors and Misfit Garage, the performers have brought Thundermania to other hit national shows such as Project Runway with Heidi Klum, The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Chrisley Knows Best and The View. Thunder also has the distinction of being the first male revue with a residency on the Las Vegas Strip and continues to set the bar for quality entertainment. –Penny Levin

Dine on Decadence
When it comes to steak, Alder & Birch’s (The Orleans, 702.365.7111) philosophy is quality over quantity. Feast on in-house dry-aged options, including grass-fed ribeye, filet mignon and a mammoth 24-ounce prime porterhouse with excellent flavor. Also appealing are a 12-ounce flat-iron steak and the 22-ounce bone-in ribeye. And like all good steakhouses, the entrées make one’s mouth water as much as the steaks—the Colorado lamb rack brings in that twist through a serrano mint gelatin and oven-roasted sea bass comes with a lemon-spinach purée. Add some sides like blue cheese scalloped potatoes, a luscious grilled cream of corn, fried quinoa, sautéed brussels sprouts or roasted root veggies—parsnips, carrots, beets—and you’ll be perfectly happy. But why not get just a little happier? Dessert can certainly do that. The banana rum cake adds a touch of decadence with a hard birch rum sauce and vanilla bean ice cream. –Nina King

It’s always best to call ahead and see what’s happening.

Open the Door to Relaxation
If you want an escape, one that will fill hours with rest and relaxation, Canyon Ranch SpaClub, shared by The Venetian and The Palazzo (702.414.3600), is your answer. Some amenities not to be missed are the co-ed conservatory—the tranquil sounds of water, soft natural light and plush seating create the perfect place to quietly converse. The Aquavana area is filled with experiential rain showers, an igloo kept at 45 degrees, an infinity whirlpool and the herbal laconium room, where essential oils fill the air. Encouraging the deepest relaxation is the wave room, a meditation space where talking is discouraged and a circle of lounge chairs sit under a domed ceiling that simulates the feeling of floating underwater. Other treatments include facials, microdermabrasion and deep cleansing. Women can take advantage of special treatments like prenatal massage, while men can enjoy facials created just for their skin and book shaves in the barber suite. –Kiko Miyasato
