Zowie Bowie

Entertainer brings an electric show to Vegas stages Chris Phillips has been getting the party started in Las Vegas for almost 11 years since making his Vegas debut as Zowie Bowie, an act that started out as his alter ego but is now a “high-energy nightclub dance concert.” The show, currently at Red Rock Resort, Fremont Street Experience and Caesars Palace, features top musicians, vocalists Jamie Lynch and Christina Amato, and Phillips as frontman for a live mix of infectious pop covers designed for drinking and dancing. Las Vegas Magazine’s Matt Kelemen recently chatted with him. Are you about to be a dad? I am. I’m very happy and proud to say all within a month and a half I turn 50 years old, I got married and found out I’m going to have a child. All within weeks. It was kind of a day to grow up and mature, at least to some degree, which is something I’ve never done and never thought was going to happen. But like I said, I’ve been so fortunate and so lucky to kind of live out my dream ... Your current gigs include your long-time residency at Red Rock Resort, Fremont Street Experience and as of November, Cleopatra’s Barge at Caesars. What differentiates the shows? What’s interesting is it’s the exact same show, but when you play to different demographics, you change your attire and you change your banter, and it becomes a completely different show with the same music (laughs). Caesars Palace, we wear suits and dresses, certainly speak in a different manner and a different tone to the demographic that is there after seeing Celine Dion, compared to people out on Fremont Street Experience at one o’ clock in the morning from all over the world. That’s a different set of circumstances out there, different energy level.

22 3.19.17 LasVegasMagazine.com

How did the Barge gig come up? I know Matt Goss’s residency ended, but how did you secure that stage on Tuesdays and Wednesdays? When Matt Goss vacated the room back some months ago I contacted the entertainment directors at Caesars Palace and said, “You know, I love this room, I love this property, and I think I’d be a perfect fit.” And they said “Chris, coincidentally we’ve been talking about you and we’ve been talking about you in our meetings the last couple of weeks, and I can’t believe you called because we were going to reach out to you, too. It was like fate, and within hours we were on the schedule. The Red Rock shows, that’s your local audience, right? It is. It’s essentially the one night a week we get to perform to pretty much 95 percent locals and friends, some of which have now been coming there for 11 years. We’re coming up on our 11th anniversary in early April. You’ve often talked about not growing up, but what do you see ahead after you become a dad? I think the only thing that’s going to change is I’m not going to be able to sleep as much as I’d like to (laughs).

Flipping Good Times

Have some fun and help out those in need this week at Vegas Indoor Skydiving’s 2017 Tunnel Jam Invitational, where bodyflyers will compete against one another. The free event features food and live entertainment as well as bodyflight demonstrations. And those who bring in at least two canned food items (and more is always better) to donate to Three Square Food Bank will get a raffle entry. Some fans may even score special $35 anniversary flights. Event starts at noon and competition starts at 5 p.m.

Hop to It

With spring nearly here, and Easter on its way, you may want to indulge in a little prebunny chocolate. On the High Roller observation wheel at the Linq Promenade, you can get some pretty marvelous views and satisfy that sugar fix with a holiday chocolate tasting, which features special Ethel M egg-shaped confections through April 3. Some of the flavors available include milk chocolate strawberry crème and a dark chocolate peanut butter. Chocolate tastings include a glass of wine and are 5 to 8:30 p.m. on Thursday evenings. Tickets are $52 per person with up to 15 guests in the same pod. Call 702.322.0593 for reservations and to purchase tickets.

Mandalay Bay’s Shark Reef Aquarium, which holds 1.6 million gallons of water and features more than 2,000 animals, is the only Nevada institution accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums. Like bunk beds? Well, 12 rooms at The Linq have been converted to allow for two queen pillow-top beds and a twinsize bunk-bed style loft so that four guests—or more—can bunk together. With spring beginning this week, mountainclimbing enthusiasts, take note: Nevada is the most mountainous state in the contiguous United States, containing 172 ranges. Nearly one-half of America’s wild horses and burros live in Nevada. Over the years, the Bureau of Land Management has adopted out more than 220,000 wild horses and burros to private citizens.

One question

Ryan Kelsey of ‘Chippendales’ What personal challenge taught you the toughest life lesson? The personal challenge I’ve grown the most from, onstage and off, was getting fired from my first couple of performing jobs. I grew up in a dance studio with my mom as one of the head teachers, so I was treated a bit like the golden child. Male dancers, being in such limited quality, are always treated much better and have significantly more leeway than the girls in what they can get away with at most dance schools. At ages 17 and 18, I walked in acting like a hotshot, thinking I had already “arrived” and I could just breeze my way past these professionals. I was humbled quickly because of my approach to the workplace. Getting dropped a couple times taught me the importance of daily hard work—to show up professionally, ready to go every day, always stay hungry and strive to be a better version of myself. The next job I auditioned for, I was told by the choreographer that they wanted to hire me, but I had a bad reputation and I was going to need to make changes in my work ethic and attitude to get hired. I decided then and there that I would never put myself in that situation again. In the 15 years since, I’ve kept that promise to myself. Chippendales The Show is at the Rio. Shows are 8:30 p.m. Sun.-Wed., 8:30 & 10:30 p.m. Thurs.-Sat. Call 702.777.7776 for tickets.

acts. Among them: “chair mountain” daredevil Maxim Popazov, four-man balancing team Atlantis, “Green Fairy” Melody Sweets and “Skates from Hell” spinners Billy and Emily England. –Steve Bornfeld

Magic of Music Memorably, they musically declared that you “Can’t Buy Me Love.” Ironically, it turns out the Mop Tops were wrong: Yes, you can buy yourself love—as in The Beatles LOVE. Just purchase a ticket. Recently marking its 10th anniversary, the Cirque du Soleil extravaganza that acrobatically and imaginatively celebrates all things Fab Four, reinvigorated itself with new acts and technology, plus updated soundtrack. LOVE now features additional images of Paul McCartney crooning “Yesterday,” John Lennon’s visage popping up during “All You Need Is Love” and Ringo Starr popping up during “Octopus’ Garden” in an air bubble. “Twist and Shout” has joined the soundtrack, while technology has been amped up by 20 new projectors for sharp, hand-drawn visuals. And check out the new dance moves created by NappyTabs. Returning fans will also note the insertion of characters like Sgt. Pepper, Eleanor Rigby, Father McKenzie into locations such as the Octopus’ Garden, Penny Lane and Strawberry Fields. –Steve Bornfeld

He’s a Comedic Force An Enduring Tribute Boomeranging back to its roots, Legends in Concert has just added Janis Joplin, reviving the salute to the hard-rocker who was featured in the original 1983 cast.

Also on the latest bill are two kings: Elvis (of rock and roll) and Michael Jackson (of pop). Giving his pelvis (and his pipes) a workout, Kevin Mills will don the Elvis

jumpsuit. And in a welcome return, Legends veteran Damian Brantley will once again slip on his moonwalking shoes as the timeless musical thriller. Oh, and the goddess—that would be cinema royalty Marilyn Monroe, embodied by cast member Stacey Whitton Summers. And perhaps if you’re really good, and it’s your special day, and you’re as dashing as the 35th American president, you’ll get a special little performance, too. –SB

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; Favorito is going to find a way to make fun of you. But humiliating people is practically Favorito’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.

Ready for All the Action If you’re looking for a place to hang out during the NCAA games, you’ll find what you need at TAG Sports Bar. The interactive gaming venue complements tournament action with its Holocube, a virtual world experience, plus digital casino games and touchscreen tabletops for halftime diversions, The high-tech TAG is as close as casino bars get to a Jetsons-esque future—at least until you can valet your flying car at The Linq. TAG’s interactive aspects permeate the bar, with self-serve tap tables rounding out the low-tech end and tabletop touchscreens with noncasino games—think giant tablets built into your table—playing up the bar’s high-tech side. The virtual blackjack dealer machine should be appealing to table game newbies easing themselves into the game. More than 200 bottled and canned beers are available for hop-heads. If that sounds up your alley, TAG’s “hop’tails”

list will delight your tastebuds as well. And these beer cocktails might even get mixology snobs and beer snobs to agree on something for once. –Las Vegas Magazine Staff

Magic Revolution Call him a freak. Dude doesn’t mind. When your show is titled CRISS ANGEL Mindfreak Live!, you can’t mind the “freak” label, can ya? Besides, it’s all by design. “I wanted to create the ultimate magic experience, to embrace technology that no Vegas show up to this point has,” Angel said. “For me, it was about creating a journey, the magic of emotion that would connect people and take them on a roller coaster ride. Some of it would be scary, some of it creepy, some of it funny, might even make you shed a tear,

but I wanted to give people tons of revolutionary magic.” Highlights of the production include sawing a woman in half (but declining to reassemble her), a straitjacket escape, disappearing (and reappearing in the crowd), and a levitation stunt in which the goth-glossed performer levitates above a ladder, across the stage and inside a metal sphere. –Steve Bornfeld Luxor, 7 & 9:30 p.m. Wed.-Sun., 7 p.m. show only March 19 & 26, starting at $59 plus tax and fee. 702.262.4400

Carne Asada Fries One of the staples of the everyday taqueria menu, carne asada fries have legions of fans, and T&T at Luxor is rewarding those fans by taking the dish a step farther. T&T’s version takes its carne asada (marinated, grilled steak), and layers it in a pile of fries, along with cheese sauce, salsa cruda and pico de gallo and a crème fresca, plus chile serrano, cilantro, and guacamole. Although it’s a starter, there’s plenty to share with your friends.

Winter is Coming The majestic Game of Thrones Live Concert Experience is designed for both fans of the show and people who have never seen the hit TV series, said the person who may know the music best, Grammy and Emmy-nominated composer Ramin Djawadi. Djawadi created the music for both the series and concert. “Diehard … fans expect to be taken through seasons one through six in preparation for season seven,” he said. “They identify with the scenes as soon as they see the stage taking shape and hear the music.” Lavish, specially designed sets include such elements as snow falling from the ceiling and a soloist performing “Goodbye Brother” as a weirwood tree seemingly grows around the player and confetti leaves fall from the tree onto the stage. Other elaborate touches include a total of three stages with musicians, soloists, the orchestra and, of course, Djawadi himself conducting this elegant experience. Djawadi said, “I

think the point of music is to guide the audience and lead them where you want them to be. Music is powerful.” –Penny Levin

Duct Tape Be Damned We should all be a little more careful. Not paranoid, just careful. That’s the message security guru and ex-CIA operative Jason Hanson wants to convey. In Spy Escape & Evasion the Show at Stratosphere, Hanson teaches us basic escape moves that potentially could save your life and how to spot the criminal among us. It’s a sort of a heavy subject, but Hanson manages to keep it relatively light, bringing volunteers onstage as he demonstrates how to bust through duct tape, how to cut ropes and zip ties with a common material.

Rubber Meets Road Exotics Racing is truly the ultimate playground, where anyone with a driver’s license can get in touch with their inner James Bond or Jason Bourne. The facility employs a fleet of 52 “supercars,” with everything from a McLaren 570S to a Lamborghini Aventador, that goes from zero to 60 in just 2.9 seconds! The minute you enter the facility, you can’t help but feel a surge of adrenaline: While some groups anxiously await their turn, others are taking classes, learning the basics before getting behind the wheel

with a certified instructor in the passenger seat. After a 30-minute orientation you’re escorted to your car of choice. Beginner or amateur? Manual or automatic? Five or seven laps? You customize the experience the way you want on the 1.2-mile course. A common occurrence is the tendency of most drivers to revert to what Exotics Racing’s Bradford Speers calls “highway mode”—taking it way too easy on turns. “We want people leaving this experience saying, ‘I learned to drive a Ferrari,’ not just, ‘I got to drive a Ferrari.’” –Ken Miller

Walking the Line Brad Garrett was turning heads from an early age. At 14, his comedic hero was Jimmie “J.J.” Walker, and he did an impression of his idol, going full tilt by adding makeup to the act. “I went to a makeup place, this tall kid from the Bronx, and asked, ‘Can you make me look like Sidney Poitier?’” Garrett said. “I was not trying to make it like a minstrel show, but just to add to the character.” He’s still turning heads, at Brad Garrett’s Comedy Club. This week, catch Garrett, Quinn Dahle and Sam Fedele. –Las Vegas Magazine Staff MGM Grand, 8 p.m. daily, starting at $39 plus tax and fee, $59 when Garrett performs, 21+. 800.745.3000 Ticketmaster

At N9NE Steakhouse (Palms, 702.933.9900), it probably goes without saying you’ll be tempted to try a steak, and from a 16-ounce bone-in filet mignon to the 14-ounce prime New York sirloin, you will not regret that choice. There are plenty of great side dishes, too. We recommend starting with George’s creamed corn, an unbelievably thick and rich version of the classic. Potato options here are plentiful, including lobster mashed potatoes and truffle French fries. –KM

Indoor amusement park fills fun itinerary A prime locale for a high-energy good time, Adventuredome—the super-charged playground at Circus Circus—is home to noted El Loco roller coaster, which tops its lineup of gravity-challenging rides, plus a rock-climbing wall, clown shows, miniature golf, mini-bowling, interactive theater shows, carnival/arcade games and every October since 2003, the amusement complex has transformed into a Halloween theme park known as Fright Dome. Families can start with the family rides. Try the B.C. Bus, an up-down-and-around ride, or go for the Circus Carousel, an old-fashioned, revolving trip atop your favorite carved animal. And for the smaller members of your contingent, plop ’em on the Frog Hopper for some bouncy fun.

34 3.19.17 LasVegasMagazine.com

Bigger daredevils will be drawn to such attractions as Sand Pirates, where you can indulge your swashbuckling side and hang on tight for a wild pirate ship ride. Coaster aficionados can’t pass up the marquee attractions. Get your adrenaline jacked up on the famous/infamous Canyon Blaster—advertised as “the world’s only indoor, double-loop, double-corkscrew roller coaster.” After catching your breath, give your heart another jump-start on El Loco, a twisty nerve-rattler that shoots 90 feet up, then plummets for a 1.5-vertical-G drop. Once your feet are back on the ground—get ’em off again. Take a whirl on Disk’O, a rocking/ spinning thingamabob; soar on the Sling Shot that rockets you up to its tower with 4 G’s worth

of acceleration; experience some Chaos, a ride that spins you in three ranges of rapid motion; and hop aboard the Inverter, a flip-crazed concoction that whips you around a full 360 degrees with G-force intensity. Also among the abundant amusements: take in the 4-D Special FX Theatre, with its bubbles, scents, air bursts, water squirts and vibrating seats that help give dimension and bring to life adventure cartoons including Ice Age and Pacific Rim; zap your friendly foes with laser fire at the Lazer Blast arena—then put a Gotham City spin on the fun with Batman-themed laser battles, including protecting citizens from the Joker. So go on—shed a few decades. In here, even grownups give in to childlike abandon. –Steve Bornfeld

If the Guinness-emblazoned coffee mugs, T-shirts, pint glasses and signs aren’t enough to pique your interest, how about a test of your bartending skills? Welcome to the Perfect Pint Experience, available in only two places worldwide: The Guinness Store in Dublin and the one in Las Vegas. Your experience begins with a brief educational presentation by your Perfect Pint ambassador, including the history of Guinness, its formula (three kinds of barley, mind you) and why there’s simply nothing else like it on Earth.

You’ll also find out Guinness’ true color. (Hint: it’s not black.) With your newfound knowledge of (and respect for) Guinness, it’s time for you to get behind the bar and pour the perfect pint. Using one of two taps installed in the Guinness Store specifically for this experience, you’ll take a 20-ounce pint glass and, using the directions provided by your ambassador, pour a pictureperfect pint. You’re then presented with a certificate celebrating your achievement and the glass you used. In addition, you’ll receive a souvenir picture of yourself behind the bar. Short of taking a vacation to Ireland, this is the closest you’ll come to an authentic Guinness experience anywhere. –Ken Miller

Come, let’s take a little tour of Italy, and stop in at one of those trattorias we’ve heard so much about. What, you’re going to Vegas instead of Italy? Well then, let’s head to Monte Carlo and try D.vino Italian Food & Wine Bar. Just off the casino floor, the intimate lounge and restaurant, part of the MCC Hospitality Group, features charming checked tablecloths and cozy booths, just what you imagine a trattoria should be. Order a glass of wine while waiting for your table and you’ll be transported even closer to Italy. It doesn’t hurt that the classic dishes on the menu are accompanied by changing specialties that match the season (recently, artichoke pizza, with artichoke both on top and in the sauce, might have inspired cries of “This is the best pizza I’ve ever had!” Artichokes are in season March through May, and D.vino's Artichoke Festival features eight dishes created with the vegetable through April 14.) You can also get a variety of wood-fired pizzas that stay on the menu all year around. For a full meal, start with D.vino’s menu stalwarts, such as a meat and cheese plate, and bruschetta, which seems to perfectly encapsulate an ideal Italian appetizer: a combo of fresh and marinated tomatoes, a sweet balsamic reduction, shaved Parmesan reggiano and fresh basil on perfectly toasted slices. A little basil oil drizzled about makes it nearly perfect. No need for the rest of the meal. But … Gnocchi Bolognese might make you change your mind about abstaining from the rest of your dinner. These little potato pals are soft and properly pillowy, cuddled up with a veal and pork Bolognese blanket. Wild mushrooms ensure good dreams. Four cheese and spinach ravioli might wake you up, though. The spinach pasta, stuffed with a creamy blend of cheese, comes accented with baby heirloom tomatoes and fresh basil and oregano. For a truly hearty bite, order the beef short rib, slow braised in red wine, and served over an incredibly good saffron rice, which perfectly pairs with rich beef. And no good Italian trattoria could ignore eggplant Parmesan. What’s nice about this dish is that the eggplant planks aren’t overly thick, meaning it’s cooked perfectly throughout. The sauce of San Marzano tomatoes is plentiful, fresh mozzarella perches on the eggplant and, instead of spaghetti, a tasty pesto penne with fresh basil. If you need seafood, a squid ink tagliatelle may be the ticket. A lobster sauce comple-

ments sautéed shrimp and calamari. Lobster and shrimp ravioli dips into decadence, with Maine lobster, shrimp and a cognac lobster cream sauce. You can find plenty of sweets here, if you save room. Molten chocolate cake comes with a Kahlua crème Anglaise, which also highlights the tiramisu. This is a traditional presentation of the classic Italian tiramisu, with layered ladyfingers and mascarpone making lingering over coffee more likely.

Dylan Taucer

Local gets global, personally and professionally It’s all about global cuisine at Tom’s Urban at New York-New York, popular street foods from all parts of the world. And who better to help represent that blend better than a man who has, in fact, traveled the globe himself? “I like to really submerge myself into each culture,” said Dylan Taucer, senior marketing and events manager for Tom’s Urban. “I like to try and speak the language, eat their food, drink their alcohol. Be a local.” His travels have taken him to Mexico, Germany, Costa Rica, Canada, Scotland, Italy, Milan, Rome, Austria, Florence and the list goes on and on. Taucer’s love for travel has opened him to new experiences, new people and an appreciation for other cultures—and he applies those positives to his career. He joined Tom’s Urban last fall and has since used his knowledge to

help with the menus, while also setting up events and overseeing group sales. “I always make sure I’m representing the brand,” he said. Taucer also brings extensive knowledge of the city and of the industry to his position. His resume itself, like the restaurant, is quite eclectic. He’s worked for Interscope Records; he helped establish Vegas’ food truck scene with some of his buddies, launching trucks like Slidin’ Thru and the Vegas StrEATS food truck festival. He’s even done marketing for UNLV’s Runnin’ Rebels and operates his own entertainment firm, representing clients like the Rusty Maples. “It’s really about being able to understand how people work,” Taucer said. “You have to be sharp and keep up with the times. I always say, you can do anything you want. Don’t be ordinary.” –Kiko Miyasato

In addition to his other duties, Taucer also contributes to the creation of cocktail menu at Tom’s Urban. “We have more than 25 handcrafted cocktails,” he said. “And they’re all good.” A popular pick, and a potent one hence the name, is the Cactus Ass Kick. The signature cocktail mixes together Herradura tequila, hibiscus syrup, prickly pear juice and lemonade.” –KM

To Market, to Market

Retail is just one aspect of this open-air experience Do a little shopping, do a little dining, do a little drinking—and, do it all at the Grand Bazaar Shops. The open-air destination, reminiscent of European and Middle Eastern outdoor markets and bazaars, is a vibrant, colorful retail retreat that sits Stripside in front of Bally’s hotel and casino. With a mix of international and U.S. retailers, shoppers can browse an eclectic gathering of the latest fashions and goods. On the apparel side, browse stores such as Superdry, a blend of American- and Japaneseinspired designs, or Rock Cinema, a huge collection of artist, movie, TV show and comic book branded T-shirts and accessories. Health and beauty stores include popular brands Lush Fresh Handmade Cosmetics, L’Core and Lionesse, and

there’s even a spot to get cool Japanese nail art done at the Tokyo Nail Art Bar. There’s a lot of bling by way of accessories stores such as Bling Co., which specializes in cubic zirconia jewelry. Other jewelers include Tags Evolution, Swarovski, Native Jewelers and bohemian chic Alex + Ani. And there’s a huge assortment of specialty shops selling everything from vapors, home goods and hot sauce to magic kits, cell phone products, Las Vegas branded souvenirs, toys and dog accessories. The Grand Bazaar Shops also houses a unique blend of dining and drinking hot spots, including Ramen-Ya, famed Chicago pizza eatery Giordano’s and Boston-born burger joint Wahlburgers, by the famous Wahlberg brothers, Donnie,

Mark and Paul. For some drinking festivities, the options are plenty with tavern and lounge Born and Raised, flair-bartending bar Fuel and the Las Vegas-based craft brewery Sin City Brewing Co. And for those nightlife needs, Redneck Riviera opened at the beginning of the year, with country music star John Rich bringing to town his Nashville country music bar, a spot for live entertainment and all things country. Enjoy specialty cocktails and purchase apparel from the all-American lifestyle brand that Rich established in 2014. Bands will be rocking and burning the midnight oil every Thursday through Sunday nights, beginning at 8 p.m. –Kiko Miyasato Bally’s, 10 a.m.-10 p.m. Sun.-Thurs., 10 a.m.11 p.m. Fri.-Sat. 702.736.4988

From Drab to Fab Thanks to the latest trends, highlighting is a snap In order for one to glow, one must highlight. This trend, a far cry from the very matte skin of the 1990s and early 2000s, encourages highlighting (also called strobing), in all the right places. You can achieve your version of this trend by using skin-care

products, primers, creams, powders or even sprays. For very glowy products, such as cream or powder highlighters, use only where you’d like to accentuate your glow, such as the tops of the cheekbones, the cupid’s bow of the lips or the inner corner

of the eyes. Be judicious—too much of these products may leave you looking oily instead of fresh. Finish your look with a shimmer body lotion or a bit of cream highlight on your collarbones. Now you’ve properly got your glow on! –Sarah Redzikowski

Not So Underground Never underestimate the power of TV singing competitions. Scottish alt-rock band Biffy Clyro has been putting out successful music since the mid-’90s, but the band achieved one of its highest chart placements thanks to a cover by a contestant on The X Factor in the U.K. The show’s 2010 winner, Matt Cardle, hit the top of the British charts with his version of “Many of Horror,” which bumped up Biffy Clyro’s version to just a few places below it. That’s not the only top 20 single the band has scored in the U.K., where songs including “Mountains,” “That Golden Rule” and “Black Chandelier” have made it to the upper reaches of the singles charts. In the U.S., Biffy Clyro is still a bit under the radar; the band didn’t even release a U.S. single until 2007 album Puzzle, and has yet to have a breakthrough hit here. That means that fans can see one of the biggest bands in the U.K. in an intimate venue like Vinyl, when overseas audiences have to catch them at huge festivals. –Josh Bell

Sharing the Stage

Old pals Vince Gill and Lyle Lovett have been through the country-music machine more than once, and they’re pretty far from the flashy, pop-oriented sound of current mainstream country. It makes sense that these two laid-back veterans would team up. Dubbed Songs & Stories, the tour features an emphasis on improvisation, collaboration and exploration. Gill and Lovett will perform both solo and together, drawing on a friendship and collaboration that goes back decades. In 1986, Gill played guitar on Lovett’s debut album, and the two have worked together numerous times since then. Lovett is known for melding country with jazz, Americana and blues, while Gill has stuck more to traditional country. But they have a similar outlook and a similar ability to adapt, something that’s essential for career longevity. –JB The Smith Center for the Performing Arts, 7:30 p.m. March 24, starting at $30 plus tax and fee. 702.749.2000 Steely Dan photo by Danny Clinch Biffy Clyro photo by Caleb Coppola

Still Flying UFO endures. In fact, if the apocalypse happens—which is looking more likely as each day passes—besides cockroaches and Twinkies, one can expect the seminal hard rock group, at least in some incarnation, to soldier on. The English rock outfit started more than 45 years ago. They were one of the pre-eminent performers of space rock, a subgenre within a subgenre. That means long instrumental breakdowns featuring organs, synthesizers and anything-goes guitar playing. That means a measured pace. That means lyrics involving science fiction or outer space. Part psych rock, part prog rock, it’s a trip. But UFO also veers often into more mainstream hard rock. “Doctor Doctor” is live showpiece that heads bang to. Because UFO adapts and UFO endures. The current lineup features original members Phil Mogg on vocals—he’s the only member who has been in every version of the band—and Andy Parker on drums. Rounding out the bill are Paul Raymond on keyboards (began with the band in ’76), Vinnie Moore on guitar (started in 2003) and Rob De Luca on bass (first gig with

the crew was in 2008). While there are almost 30 former members, it’s noteworthy that UFO is kicking butt in concert and still doing it their way. UFO endures. –Jason Harris

The list of cool things about Donavon Frankenreiter is long. It starts with his name. There are so many interesting things one could be with the name Donavon Frankenreiter. Professional wrestler, mad scientist, New York art critic or in the case of real life—surf rocker! Frankenreiter, 44, has been releasing laid-back grooves since his self-titled album in 2004. These are easy, chill jams for big wave hunters to relax to in between surf sessions. Here’s another cool thing: Frankenreiter toured throughout Brazil on the Monstra Alma Surf Festival which featured other bands, surf artists, a surf photographer and a surf filmmaker. Cool thing No. 3: The guitarist and vocalist once released an EP with fellow groove sharks Jack Johnson and G Love called Some Songs Live. The six pack of tunes features four songs the trio recorded on surf legend Kelly Slater’s radio show K-OS. Yet another cool thing: Frankenreiter has released two volumes of Recycled Recipes where he covers well-known rock songs and make them chill. Volume 1 features a very mellow take on Creedence Clearwater Revival’s protest burner “Fortunate Son.” Volume 2 slows down Tom Petty’s “American Girl.” –JH

ntertainers commonly pray, stretch, shun carb-loaded pigouts and frequent the Porcelain Throne. Some indulge more colorful quirks to keep their equilibrium, well, equalized. “There’s a thousand things I have to turn on before it’s right,” says perpetual-motion prop comic Carrot Top, aka Scott Thompson, about his Luxor digs, a marvel of mood-setting madness. “There’s 30 lights and lava lamps. I light candles and incense and put on music, and every night the selection of music is different. Some nights it’s rock ’n’ roll, some it’s country, Pet Shop Boys—it depends on my mood. Then I do a double shot of espresso to get my energy. Then I go upstairs to the stage to go over everything. Then I do one shot of Crown Royal with my opening act. It relaxes me and opens up my vocal cords and warms me up.” Who doesn’t do a shot or six of Crown Royal before work? While Thompson’s routine is atmospheric and a bit boozy, it’s deeply personal next door at Excalibur’s Tournament of Kings, where Antonio Restivo brings the heat portraying Mordred, the evil fire wizard in the sword-and-sorcerer spectacle. “I wear a pendant around my neck that has my father’s ashes,” Restivo says, pausing as emotion overtakes him. “He passed away just before I started working at Tournament of Kings. Of all the things my father had seen me do, this would have been his favorite.” Co-star Shayla Rodriguez, who plays a maiden, practices “pop” psychology. “If I can get both of the arches of my feet to pop or my sternum on my chest to pop, I really believe I’ll have a more balanced show,” she says. Youch! Hey, whatever works for kickin’ Antonio out the kinks—say, the kinks of 50 Restivo of Tournament of Shades! The Parody, the Bally’s mockKings u-musical satirizing BDSM-obsessed Fifty Shades of Grey. Maren Wade, who portrays Anastasia, the young lady schooled in ouch!-inducing lovemaking, is amused by her backstage prop rundown. “In another show, it might be, ‘My costume is here, my shoes are here, my wig is here,’” Wade says. “But in 50 Shades! it’s, ‘OK, my handcuffs are here, my (uh, artificial genitalia) is here, we’ve got the (um, male release) ribbons here, the S&M masks are here, the collar here, the choker there, and the harness.’ The prop list is very funny.”

And sexy—though not any sexier than at Sexxy. “I have to touch my pole,” says Jennifer Romas, star/creator/choreographer of the Westgate Las Vegas adult revue, who executes a sultry pole dance. “I clean it with rubbing alcohol and make sure it’s safe and secure. Even if my tech guys clean it, I have to climb on it or touch it or grip it before I perform on it.” Don’t discount the preshow powers of a good joystick, either, as video games are the path to showtime Zen for Fator. “I have a video game setup in my dressing room, although my wife didn’t understand it when we first got together,” says Fator with a chortle. Once a Wii bowling devotee early in his run, he’s advanced to tougher preshow challenges. “I’ll use my Sony PSP or my Nintendo. Now I play ‘Destiny’ (an online, first-person shooter game). It’s a reset for my mind—now I’m ready to rock.” Think he’s alone? BZZZT!—a video game demerit for you. “We’re first-generation gamers, so we do our gaming thing,” says Shawn Stockman, who contributes his creamy vocals as one-third of R&B seducers Boyz II Men, Fator’s showroom bunkmates. “Now it’s ‘Star Wars: Battlefront’—like ‘Call of Duty’ but in the land of Endor. It occu-

“I do the Mike and Ike candies.” – James Davis of Chippendales pies your brain, gets you normal before the show.” Preferring a psychic soother of another sort was pop icon Olivia Newton-John (who recently wrapped a run at Flamingo), who loyally eyeballed one TV show before stepping onstage. “We love to watch Say Yes to the Dress,” said the Aussie songbird. “It’s so sweet and funny and innocuous, there’s no drama.” Not Marriage Boot Camp: Reality Stars? How … refreshing. Let’s talk food. And whether to eat it—literally a matter of stayin’ alive. “Singing is a lot of lung movement, and the more that’s in your stomach, the harder that is, and some foods come back up on you, so you’d feel like you want to burp and belch,” says Michael Clift, aka Barry Gibb

Carrot Top

in Excalibur’s The Australian Bee Gees Show: A Tribute to the Bee Gees. Adds Wayne Hosking (he’s Maurice): “Avoiding food is important. You don’t want to be spitting things at the audience.” Speaking on behalf of the audience: Thanks. As for Robin, the other Brother Gibb—aka David Scott—the menu is limited. And a little strange. “I have a fast metabolism, so before the show, I’ll have a banana while putting on makeup because that digests pretty easily but gives you energy,” he says. “And coffee, because the caffeine rush is good.” Coffee and a Shawn banana? Hmmm. Stockman of Boyz II Men Also, factor your stage into your culinary calculation. “Dancing in the dirt is exceptionally hard as opposed to dancing on a stage,” says Tournament’s Rodriguez, who circles a dirt arena. “That extra weight of having a meal after 3:30, it makes you jump a little lower. But I’m guilty of eating an In-N-Out burger early in the day.” Now that’s more like it. A light nosh is Fator’s preference. “I’ll have my assistant get me those 200-calorie peanut butter crackers. I’ll eat them about 20 minutes before a show for energy.” Doesn’t peanut butter cling to the roof of a dummy’s mouth? Our favorite of their food fetishes: candy cravings, especially if they add even a trace of average-guy fat on Adonis bods. “I eat jelly beans” says aerialist Julian Aldag, who performs to “Stranger in Moscow’ in Michael Jackson ONE at Mandalay Bay. “I eat three before a performance and it gives me enough of a sugar rush going through the bloodstream.” “It’s always good if you need that lift to have a little hard candy around, so I do the Mike and

Ike candies,” says James Davis, a Chippendales The Show performer in the same mind-set as Sexxy’s Romas. “I eat almost no sugar at all, but I’ll have five almonds or 10 Skittles before showtime and pop ’em really quick,” Romas says. “It’s a sugar rush thing.” However, no sugar-powered surge blunts wardrobe worries, so at Chippendales at Rio, Davis takes preshow precautions, carefully strapping on kneepads for 50-foot slides across the stage. “It messes up the whole opening of the show if all the buckles aren’t clamped,” he says. “If one is out it drives me absolutely insane, I go nuts. The whole time you’re doing your choreography, you’re thinking about it.” Most common of backstage commonalities? Prayin’ to The Man Upstairs. Newton-John did it with her band. Tournament ladies, including Rodriguez, engage in “sing-along chants.” Some prayers address humility. “Praying keeps you humble,” says Steven Arlen, who does double duty as Merlin and King Arthur in Tournament. “You’ve been doing a show for so long and think, ‘Why am I here, I’d rather be home?’ You have to stop and say, ‘I get to perform right now, I’m not in a cubicle, I’m so grateful for this.’” Before an evening at Excalibur, Thunder From Down Under gyrator Matthew Fardell emphasizes his devotion by repeating a phrase. “I say out loud, ‘I love my audience,’” Fardell says. Davis of Chippendales is more meditative. “I’m always very still before a show,” he says. “Since I was a kid, I’ve had bad anxiety. I focus on breathing, which really helps your body relax.” Over at 50 Shades! The Parody, it’s halfprayer/half-cheerleading. “Before we all go on, we say, ‘Let’s go change lives tonight!’” Wade says. “On one hand, we’re playfully joking because our show is a parody. But it’s a really funny show and the best form of therapy is that people want to forget everything and enjoy a show in the moment.” Prayer is spiritual and otherworldly. Other rituals are earthier. “I’ve heard some guys gotta have sex right before they go Jennifer Romas on, they gotta get some—none of my of Sexxy guys, for the record,” says Stockman, safeguarding the Boyz images. “And one strange thing that’s been happening with me for 20 years is that every time we pray, I (need to) go to the bathroom—‘Amen!’ and then I gotta pee. It’s the weirdest thing.” Quirky, but not weird. Relax. Have a chocolate-covered grasshopper.

Spice World 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 and fortune cookies, which brings us to Blossom’s (Aria, 877.230.2742) 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. –Jim Begley

Exotic Flavors Appetizers are a strong point at Pho Da Nang Vietnamese Kitchen (Rio, 702.777.7777). Start with the Thai chicken with lettuce wrap, an extremely popular Asian-style dish in America. Butter lettuce acts as vessel while small chunks of chicken flavored with hoison, cilantro and peanut fill out the interior. Strands of crispy rice noodles sit on top. There are many types of pho, including pho sate. Here the traditional Vietnamese soup mashes up with an Indonesian sauce to create a unique offering. Beef broth, rice noodles and thinly sliced beef are kicked up a notch with sate sauce swirled throughout the bowl. The smooth peanut sauce matches well with the pho and coats the beef perfectly. Or try charbroiled chicken with steamed rice, known as com ga nu’o’ong, and you’ll experience comfort food at its finest, with the nicely grilled fowl maintaining plenty of flavor throughout. –Jason Harris

Old Fashioned With a Twist In a city filled with fine places to wine and to dine, a hidden gem is all the more special— and Cornerstone at the Gold Coast (702.367.7111) is one such special place. Tucked into a corner off the casino floor, finding it is like coming across a speakeasy. The deep, rich color palette and the ornate furnishings send guests back to the Prohibition era, and there’s a cocktail menu to match. “That was our intention, to serve Prohibition-era and classic cocktails, but give them our own Cornerstone twist,” says lead mixologist Brandon StClair. One prime example is the Old Fashioned—a classic cocktail, but here Old Forester bourbon is barrel aged for 40 days with dried cherries, cinnamon, vanilla bean and orange peel. –Kiko Miyasato
