Scott Stapp
Former Creed frontman on tour and ready to rock Las Vegas Like many of his peers, singer Scott Stapp has ridden the turbulent rock ’n’ roll roller coaster throughout his nearly three-decade long career. Which is to say the founding member of Creed has been to the top, the bottom and all points in between. These days, Stapp is enjoying the benefits of stability and sobriety, as well as the freedom that comes with being a solo artist. He touched on these topics and more during a recent conversation with Las Vegas Magazine’s Matt Jacob in advance of his Sept. 29 concert at Brooklyn Bowl. You’re on the road right now as part of the Make America Rock Again tour. Who else is on the bill? It’s myself, Trapt, Sick Puppies, Drowning Pool and Adelitas Way, with other bands popping in and out along the way. It’s just a tour we were asked to be a part of, bringing rock ’n’ roll to every city that we go to.
that is for an artist. We were just living in the moment. … We didn’t even look at it as a storm. It was just a beautiful, dream-cometrue experience. We were living our dream.
After touring on and off for more than two decades, what do you still enjoy about it? I love the live show. I love the energy of the crowd. I love that connection. It’s something that’s just indescribable. It’s an adrenaline rush and a high. The only other time I experience that feeling is when I’m in the creative mode and feel like I wrote a really good song.
As hugely popular as Creed got, the band in general and you in particular were frequently a lightning rod for critics and oldschool rock fans. Were you ever able to wrap your head around why that was? I find that at some point in any majorly successful rock band like Creed was, you’re always going to have your critics. That’s just par for the course, especially when you get that big, when you go from no-name to totally mainstream—and at a point in time, we were the biggest band in the world.
Let’s go back to the early days when you were with Creed. When you had your breakout success in the late 1990s/ early 2000s, did you see that tornado coming? We did see it coming, because we thought that’s just what was supposed to happen when you got a record deal. We were kind of naive and ignorant—and I’ll specifically speak on my behalf— of really how much of an anomaly
In recent years, you’ve gone public with your struggles with addiction and being diagnosed with bipolar disorder. Was it easy to be so free and open about such very personal ordeals? No, it wasn’t easy. But due to the nature of what was going on (in my life), my falls and struggles played out in public. So there was a definite need and feeling for me to address them publicly and
22 9.24.17 LasVegasMagazine.com
let the fans and anyone who had been following me know what was going on, and what I was doing with my life to overcome those struggles and continue to move forward as a husband, a father, an artist and a human being. Now, I’m in one of the best places I’ve ever been.
Finish this sentence: If not for rock ’n’ roll, I would be … … hopefully, a pro baseball player. I played ball my entire life—I was a shortstop—and had multiple scholarship offers, and at one point in time thought that had I gone down that road, I may have had a shot at it.

Too Much Fun
Celebrate Oktoberfest in style at The Park, between T-Mobile Arena and New York-New York. This year’s festival runs from Sept. 28-Oct. 1. To start your experience, head to Beerhaus, where you can purchase steins for $15 ($25 filled; refills are $14). Tents throughout The Park feature soft pretzels, rotisserie chicken, pork schnitzel sandwiches with fries and petite pork sausage served with German potato salad. Then try your luck at tricycle races or the ring toss, and finish up your experience with a “Chicken Dance”—your best dancing birdie impersonation. Prosit!
Cuisine for a Cause
The victims of Hurricane Harvey are still fresh on everyone’s mind, and if you want to help and have a great meal at the same time, head to the “Tastes of Texas” fundraising dinner at the Downtown Grand Hotel & Casino. The meal, prepared by chef Scott Commings as part of his Culinary Road Trip series, from 6-9 p.m. on Sept. 27 in the Fremont Room, features Frito pie, smoked brisket and hot links, ribeye, beans and potatoes, and pecan pie for dessert. Cost is $50 person, and the proceeds benefit Hurricane Harvey’s victims. For more information, go to downtowngrand.com.

Heavens forbid, but if you ever need medical attention while visiting, fear not—the city of Las Vegas has 24 hospitals. Lance Burton remains one of the most successful Las Vegas magicians, performing at the Monte Carlo for 14 years from 1996-2010. Las Vegas’ first waterbased show, Splash, featuring a 20,000-gallon tank, dancers and pyrotechnics, debuted at the now-demolished Riviera in 1985 and ran until 2006. The newest hotel-casino to open in Vegas is the Lucky Dragon. The Asian-themed property, which opened in 2016, has 203 rooms.

Time to drink some brews, bro! Cheers, darlings, to National Drink Beer Day celebrated this Thursday, Sept. 28. So where to best honor the special day? We’ve rounded up some cool spots and fun ways to get your drink on. Stop by The Shoppes at Mandalay Place and pop into the Guinness Store for its Perfect Pint Experience, held daily between noon and 8 p.m. Guests learn the six steps to pouring the perfect pint of Guinness and even get to take home some merchandise and a completion certificate that proudly states they can now pour the perfect pint. For a fun way to consume some cold brew, try your hand at beer pong—there are hot spots up and down the Strip. Challenge strangers or friends at beer pong spots like Level Up at MGM Grand, Blondie’s and PBR Rock Bar at Miracle Mile Shops, Rockhouse at The Venetian and O’Sheas at The Linq Promenade. And if you want to be adventurous and imbibe many different types of beer, there are plenty of spots up and down the Strip that pack their menus with a long list of choices including craft, seasonal, rare and specialty beers, and even beer cocktails. The list of venues includes Public House at The Venetian, Umami Burger and Beer Garden at SLS Las Vegas and Tag Sports Bar at The Linq. But no matter where you go: hop to it! –Kiko Miyasato

Not yet impressed? Then seeing David Copperfield for yourself should do it. Copperfield covers the magical waterfront, from up-close hocus-pocus to epic-scale illusions. Expect mind-reading and enjoy Copperfield’s embrace of technology as he turns email, Twitter and iPhones into sources of sorcery.
Lest you think it’s all magical mechanics, Copperfield is something of a sentimentalist, telling life stories—including his entry into magic at a day camp and an emotional tale of letters from his late father. Making that kind of connection is just a different kind of magic. –Las Vegas Magazine Staff

Amped-Up Taste Modesty is not in Guy Fieri’s job description. The restaurateur and host of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives always goes big, whether it’s his hair or his cooking. Same goes for Guy Fieri’s Vegas Kitchen & Bar, the first local restaurant from the UNLV alum. Foodie fans may be surprised to find that it feels more like an intimate, amped-up version of a bar and grill than a big Vegas restaurant—you won’t find white tablecloths or molecular gastronomy here. Instead, it’s all about comfort food in big portions. Take, for instance, the Guy-talian fondue dippers, pepperoni-wrapped breadsticks served with a smoky provolone and sausage dip. The sashimi won-tacos are simple and satisfying, while the bacon mac-ncheese burger and the Tatted-Up turkey burger are as over the top as it gets. Or maybe you’d care for the “crisp, garlicky mega-crouton” upon which the Johnny Garlic’s Caesar salad is placed. It all culminates with Guy’s Cheesecake Challenge, a giant slice of the dessert covered in potato chips, pretzels and hot fudge. –Las Vegas Magazine Staff

Old-School Energy Do You Know the Puppet Man? With a new talk-show format, dubbed Terry Fator Tonight, Terry Fator’s show remains a fast shuffle of quippy one-liners with signature pals like Winston the turtle, Duggie the stoner and Vikki the cougar. Though comic crossfire is the core of Fator’s show, music contributes significantly. The star has plenty of musical solo time and reels off impressions including Michael Jackson, Tony Bennett and Ed Sheeran. He’s also introduced his newest dummy dy-

Looking for a bit of old-school Vegas entertainment? That job is deftly handled by The Scintas—Buffalo-born bros Frankie and Joey, “honorary Scinta”/drummer Peter O’Donnell and vocalist Janien Valentine. Frankie fronts a show that gallops along, tunes punctuated by rim-shot one-liners. Have you ever lounged around New York’s Catskill Mountains that cradled stars such as Jerry Lewis and Don Rickles in their career infancies? That entertainment style, renowned for audience intimacy and go-go energy, defines The Scintas. –Las Vegas Magazine Staff Plaza, 7:30 p.m. Sept. 29-30, $49-$99 dinner package plus tax and fee. 702.386.2507

Tuscan Old Fashioned The great thing about cocktails? They’re appropriate at any time during a meal—some help to whet your appetite, some help to top off a great main course, and others can serve as dessert. Take, for example, the Tuscan Old Fashioned at B&B Ristorante at The Venetian, a twist on the traditional drink using maple syrup, bitters and pancettainfused Maker’s Mark, infused in-house. It’s mainly intended as an aperitivo to start your meal, but trust us: This robust beauty will complement your dinner as well.
A Sensory Journey You’re not dreaming—you’re KÀ-ing. And if you’ve got vertigo, grab your seat-rests as that vertical stage transforms into an enormous tilta-whirl—eventually standing straight on end—as performers scamper up, down and try to hang on. One of Cirque du Soleil’s most vigorous exercises in athletic mysticism, KÀ was named for the Egyptian idea of ka. Brought to theatrical life, in a massive theater by 80-plus artists—chock-full of acrobats, puppetry and martial arts—KÀ tells the tale of “the coming of age of a young man and a young
woman.” Translation: gravity-defying action as spear-toting warriors track the royal brother and sister, who wind up separated, with sister fleeing on a boat caught in a violent storm and escaping danger on a flying machine. Brother is helped along by a member of the court. They encounter sea creatures and experience the Wheel of Death. Bottom line: a feast for the senses that plays with your spatial perceptions, creating the illusion of a deep abyss with essentially a stageless stage of giant revolving platforms. So hang on—you’re not dreaming. –Las Vegas Magazine Staff
Strength Through Song Celine Dion experienced the ultimate heartbreak in 2016 after the loss of husband and manager René Angélil. After taking a short break from her eponymous residency, she was back onstage, starting out with a video tribute to him and her rendition of “With One More Look at You”/”Watch Closely Now.” The current set list spans her career and has all the hits, including, of course, “My Heart Will Go On,” but it’s evolved since the

Art of Silence Many acts featured on America’s Got Talent leave us speechless, but very rarely are the acts speechless themselves. That all changed with last season’s emergence of Tape Face, aka New Zealand comic mime Sam Wills. Using a variety of props, some perfect timing and a pair of eyeballs that spoke volumes, Tape Face proved to be an endless source of entertainment, whether it was dancing with himself to “Lady In Red” or having a pair of oven mitts sing along to (and eventually kiss to) “Endless Love.” It wasn’t just the scenarios he was creating; it was his reactions that really sold them. As the season continued, the true entertainment value of Tape Face was in trying to figure out what he was up to next. A bunch of red balloons? A staple gun? A horse’s head on a stick? You were just helplessly along for the ride, but you were always laughing. Tape Face, who brings his unique brand of comedy to Las Vegas, has managed to tap into that part of everyone’s childhood when they let
their imaginations run wild. Regardless of your maturity level, we dare you to keep a straight face during this show. –Ken Miller

Guests that want to experience all-over body bliss with their partner should indulge in ESPA’s On the Rocks signature treatment. Booking the service reserves one of the spa’s couples’ sanctuaries, complete with massage tables and in-room shower. The treatment starts with a foot cleanse and exfoliation, followed by a complete body exfoliation and then a rinse in the shower. Therapists then consult with each partner on what type of massage is wanted, with the partners lying side by side each experiencing their own journey. –Kiko Miyasato

It’s a Deal!
Doing Things His Way When comedian Bill Burr opens his mouth, whether it’s during his stand-up comedy monologue or his podcasts, be prepared for commentary on the “absurdness of political correctness” sprinkled with a plethora of four-letter words. That devil-may-care approach to life comes naturally to Burr, and the fact that he has a successful career doing it is just icing on the cake. As he writes on his blog, “I was born a freckled child in a land far away during a much simpler time. I did well in school until it counted.”
He tells of dreaming of going to Notre Dame and becoming a lawyer when he was a high school freshman. “I ended up working in warehousing and unloading trucks. Other than stand-up, that job was the most fun I ever had.” Burr says he does “a couple hundred shows a year (performing) and enjoys the travel.” This January he debuted his fifth hourlong Netflix special, Walk Your Way Out. Burr also expresses his views about life as host of a podcast each week called The Monday Morning Podcast. –Penny Levin

The show, ahem, climaxes with Cools’ signature porn auditions, as each volunteer displays their skill. “Certain things will always affect the show—moon cycles, the time of year, even bills being due at tax time...” Cools said. “You don’t know what’s going to happen until it happens.” –Las Vegas Magazine Staff Paris, 9 p.m. Tues. & Thurs.-Sun., $44.36$74.63 plus tax and fee, 18+. 702.777.2782

Time to Get Real
Comedian doesn’t hold back in Vegas residency 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’ newest comedian-in-residence. “I’m a filthy, dirty animal that’s gonna rock this place!” says—make that exults—rotund, Southern-bred Ralphie May, punctuating nearly every exclamation with a high-pitched giggle or a booming guffaw. “I don’t want family-friendly. I like old-school Vegas, where you could (fill in the un-G-rated blank here) a cocktail waitress,” he says. “Now everybody is like, ‘Assault! Assault!’ Hey, if it’s good enough for the president, it’s good enough for me!”
34 9.24.17 LasVegasMagazine.com
Speaking of which … in the era of a blunt, verbally unpredictable leader, May—who, it should be noted, has conducted his no-holds-barred act since the first George W. Bush term when he emerged nationally on Last Comic Standing— could be catching the wave of the say-anything zeitgeist of the new Republican West-Winger (even though he’s a Democrat). “I’ve been correct—not politically correct, just correct—my whole life,” says May, who takes dead aim at what he considers hypocrisy. “People who are easily upset only care if it matters to them. Everybody is fine with Asian jokes except the Asians. It’s the same guy who was laughing at the fatty jokes and the women jokes and the black jokes. I never heard one Mexican stand up
and say, ‘Hey, stop saying that about black folks.’ That’s why ya gotta give it to everybody. It would be rude not to. If people do something dumb, take your lumps. I don’t like calling everyone a blank-American. If you’re here, you’re an American. Now, what else are ya? You’re a Mexican? Good for you, knock yourself out. Black? Who cares? I’m tired of all this boo-hooing.” Take this advice to get you through a night with ol’ Ralphie boy: “Get over yourself. Let’s drop all the drama and pass the bourbon.” Did we mention the title of May’s Vegas residency? It’s called No Apologies. We think he means it. –Las Vegas Magazine Staff Harrah’s, 10 p.m. Thurs.-Sat., $35-$99 plus tax and fee, 18+. 702.777.2782

Amberlei Ramirez
Life’s sweet for baker/makeup artist It all started with cake. When Amberlei Ramirez joined Instagram around 2012 it was to showcase her baking—unicorn-shaped cake pops, mermaid cakes clad in purple fondant scales and cheeky cupcakes that mimic the smiling poo emoji with striking accuracy. “I am a home-based baker. I started it out as a hobby, and it turned into a business,” says Ramirez. Instagram was a medium to share her work and connect with other bakers, but as her following grew, the postings morphed into a social media career, with hero shots of pastries giving way to restaurant tableaus and cosmetics collages. “I’ve always loved makeup,” says the 29-year-old Philippines native, who’s lived in Las Vegas since 2001. When she first got into beauty content, she saved up to buy a bunch of high-end products. Now brands send her their new lines, which Ramirez showcases in brightly lit images on a background of white fur or marble. “I started with just having a small makeup bag. Now my entire house is filled with makeup. I literally don’t have any more space.” When Ramirez appears in front of the camera—posed just so on a lightly mussed bed or modeling a new mascara—it’s her daughters, ages 10 and 7, behind the camera. “They know my style. When other people take my picture, I’m kind of iffy about how it turns out,” she says. For Ramirez, the social media platform has also been her entrée into a group of dedicated local food lovers who often attend the same restaurant events and parties. “The food community here in Vegas is like family,” Ramirez says, adding that most of the places she goes are off-Strip spots that “just need a little social media push.” Current favorites include the Harry Potterthemed Bad Owl Coffee in Henderson and Recess Italian Ice & Desserts. Does she actually eat everything she posts? Ramirez says yes. “Especially if it’s sweets or desserts—I can’t pass that up.” –Sarah Feldberg

Turn On the Night
Immerse yourself in an intriguing environment The exterior of Light Nightclub can seem a bit deceiving. It’s marked by a small double-door entrance and minimal signage identifying the club; it sits unobtrusively just steps beyond the glass doors from Mandalay Bay’s parking structure. If not for the snaking line of patrons wrapped around the corner and the booming base permeating the air, one might miss the nightclub entirely. But once through the doors, it’s a whole other world—the exact opposite of its outer shell. The 38,000-square-foot party palace is an audio-visual stunner, where huge sights and sounds complement the state-of-the-art, specially built lighting and sound system, with a

towering wall of video screens (and even some reaching down from the ceiling) serving as a backdrop to the DJ booth. All the screens are equipped with innovative video mapping that spreads special effects across all screens— synched up with the DJs’ music—immersing guests completely within the space. The stadium-style setup of VIP tables (also on the second floor) provides perfect sight lines to the main dance floor and DJ performances. Talented acrobats entertain guests with amazing aerial performances throughout the evening. And even more effects from multicolored lasers and fog machines submerge patrons deeper into the nightlife environment.
If all the technological wonders don’t bowl you over, Light has stayed on top of the city’s nightlife game by offering a popular musical lineup, with past performances that include J. Cole, T-Pain, Laidback Luke, Tyga, Bassjackers, Claude VonStroke and DJ Mustard. This week is no exception, as the club’s Industry Night welcomes DJs Ikon and Karma. The two team up often and spin everything from electronica to hip-hop, keeping the crowd hyped all night. Over the weekend the nightclub welcomes Jamie Iovine on Sept. 29 and Justin Credible on Sept. 30. –Kiko Miyasato Mandalay Bay, 10:30 p.m.-4 a.m. Wed., 10 p.m.-4 a.m. Fri.-Sat. 702.632.7600

Sonoma Cellar Steakhouse evokes the feel of wine country In Las Vegas, venturing off the Strip is not a bad thing—the entire area has a wealth of opportunity for thrill seekers, nature lovers and food aficionados. Near the southern end of the valley, you’ll find Sonoma Cellar Steakhouse in Sunset Station, a charming place that’s frequented by locals. The California wine country-inspired restaurant recently expanded its environs and its menu, with some eclectic items joining traditional steakhouse choices. Among those eclectic offerings are the cornflake-crusted Buffalo frog legs, available on the bar menu and for happy hour, too. Although most people have had chicken wings, they probably can’t say the same about frog legs, which are surprisingly similar to chicken, but much juicier. Fried green tomatoes are juicy, and tangy, too, with a rémoulade accent. You can wash those down with a tasty craft beer like the Alaskan Smoked Porter or the Dogfish Head 120 Minute Imperial IPA, or go for a cocktail like the Pain and Suffering. With its combination of pineapple juice, orange

juice, Russell’s Reserve Private Barrel bourbon and cream of coconut, this upscale take on a Painkiller will have you feeling no pain. The restaurant also offers a good variety of wine and a whiskey library. At your table, go light for starters with a tomato and burrata salad with basil and peaches, balsamic vinegar and olive oil, or try the sweet beets four ways, accented with goat cheese and pistachios. For soups, choose steakhouse stalwarts such as French onion and lobster bisque. And smoked pork belly over grits and rainbow chard makes a lovely gateway to your entrée. The chard itself makes for a fab bite, without any bitterness at all. The restaurant features everything from aged steaks to a 24-ounce porterhouse and lamb T-bones, but the Sonoma classic is the signature steak for a reason. The 20-ounce ribeye is perfectly cooked, marinated with garlic, tomato, and cilantro. It’s served with a garlic-cilantro sauce, which is offered for the other cuts as well. Pair the steak with a side of slightly crispy Hasselback potatoes, presented with bacon, Gorgonzola cheese and chives. Another excellent addition is the charred sweet corn, served off the cob, with chipotle aioli, cilantro and cotija cheese, evoking

the feel of Mexican street corn. To cap off the meal, the inventive, pretty Coffee and Donuts cooks up a warm glazed-doughnut pudding, like a bread pudding, but with a twist. Cappuccino gelato provides the coffee portion, and pairs very well with the pudding. Want even more decadence? Peanut butter pie. You really only need those three words to evoke the complete richness of this dessert, but here are a few more: Candied peanuts and an Oreo crust. It definitely makes a detour from the Strip worth the trip.

Stephanie Cimino
Uncorking a successful sommelier career It all began with a hammer and a bottle of champagne right around the time Stephanie Cimino was in high school. She and some girlfriends got hold of a bottle of champagne. “We couldn’t figure out how to open it, so I took a hammer to it and the bottle exploded,” she said. “That piqued my interest. I wanted to know why it exploded. From then on, I wanted to learn all about champagne and wine.” Cimino landed her first job on the Strip at 17 years old, and “I haven’t left since,” said the La Quinta, Calif., native. For the past two years she’s been the sommelier for Giada at The Cromwell. She first studied beverage management at UNLV and worked at restaurants inside MGM Grand, Caesars Palace and The Venetian.
42 9.24.17 LasVegasMagazine.com
It was at the Wynn, though, that she really cut her teeth. “I started as a hostess and left as a wine manager,” she said. “Over nine years—it’s where I really honed my sommelier skills.” Two years ago, Cimino earned her sommelier certification. And she couldn’t be happier to have landed at Giada. “I came in for dinner and I absolutely fell in love,” she said. “The mantra of Giada—she’s a female chef and I always wanted to work for someone that promotes female empowerment. Being a female somm, I was like ‘yes, girls rule!’” Cimino’s job includes introducing new wines to new palates. “I love the feeling of teaching our guests something new about wine.” … No hammer required. –Kiko Miyasato
Cimino has traveled the world visiting vineyards including ones in Italy, France and Canada. And she specifically loves to study the rosé wines they offer. “I love rosé,” she said. So much so that she concocted her own rosé specialty cocktail, the Frose. Mixed with Cape Mentelle rosé, limoncello, peach Grand Marnier and white peach purée and garnished with roséinfused sugar crystals, the frozen cocktail is like an elevated slushy. “When you see this cocktail you automatically think sweet, but this is dry,” Cimino said. “There’s citrus notes, hints of strawberry, a little white peach and it’s fruitforward and dry at the end.” And, of course, it’s simply delicious. –KM

Center fills both retail and dining needs So often when you are shopping up a storm, you get a little peaked. You probably need food and drink, and at The Grand Bazaar Shops at Bally’s you’ll find both. There are 15 options, actually, from hot dogs to craft beer. One of the newest offerings here is Dirt Dog. Although the name may sound strange to the uninitiated, the food is delicious. The hot dogs draw in tastes ranging from chipotle aioli on the Red Dog to chimichurri sauce on a Green Dog. But do yourself a flavor favor and order the Mutt Dog— that’s half red, half green and all great. Other excellent options include the elote and the Filthy Fries.

You’ll also find ramen, Mediterranean food, Turkish pizza, ice cream, more craft beer…
But maybe it’s time to get back to shopping— Superdry, Lush, Alex and Ani, Havianas, The Dog House, Swarovski and souvenir shop Vegas EXP all have outlets here, and more than 20 other shops provide plenty of items to peruse and purchase.

Mayor of Party Town With songs like “Party Hard,” “It’s Time to Party,” “Party Til You Puke” and “Long Live the Party,” Andrew W.K. isn’t just the life of the party, the party is life and everyone is invited. Much like a heavy metal Bruce Springsteen, W.K. is an endearing performer of the people, almost always focusing on “us” and “we,” rather than self. But if The Boss
is blue-collar, then W.K. is dirty plain white T-shirt. Truly an everyman. He’s also a self-proclaimed motivational performer, and like most mayors of various Party Towns, W.K. inspires you to have a good time. Onstage, he bangs his head, kicks his legs and dances in circles, facilitating an environment that allows us to decide how to have
fun. In “Party Hard,” W.K. sings: “We do what we want and we get it from you / do what we like and we like what we do.” Do you like to jump during a concert? Go for it. Do you like to play air drums? Then play the heck out of those imaginary tom-toms. W.K. is merely a musical point guard, tossing up a big ball of fun for you to slam dunk. –Alex Haase

Keeping the Faith Motionless in White began in 2005 with a group of high-school students including namesakes Chris Motionless and Kyle White, although years later lead singer Motionless is the only original member left. But Motionless and his various bandmates have built a longlasting career in an era when hard rock seems to be mostly relegated to the margins of popular music. When even alternative rock radio is dominated by the sounds of electronic dance music, MIW incorporates keyboards and loops along with heavy guitars and guttural vocals, creating a sound that is accessible yet intense. After building a following over the past decade, thanks to appearances at festivals including the Warped Tour and Europe’s Download Festival, MIW is embarking on a major headlining tour in support of its recent fourth album Graveyard Shift, which hit No. 1 on the Billboard hard rock charts. Expect something epic when MIW kicks off the U.S. leg of the tour right here in Vegas. –Josh Bell
Metal on Wood
Who would have thought that a novelty album of Metallica covers played on four cellos would launch a 20-year career? In 1996, Finnish quartet Apocalyptica released Plays Metallica by Four Cellos, and this small independent release became a worldwide phenomenon, with approval from the members of Metallica themselves. That album led at first to more covers (of Metallica and other metal and hard rock acts) and then to original music, with the members of Apocalyptica taking a unique, cello-driven approach to metal. Guest stars including Slayer’s Dave Lombardo and Bush’s Gavin Rossdale have joined the members of Apocalyptica in the studio over the years. The band is in the midst of a huge tour celebrating Plays’ anniversary, performing a set of Metallica songs in tribute to the strange little idea that established a heavy metal legacy. –JB Hard Rock Hotel, 8 p.m. Oct. 1, starting at $33 plus tax and fee. 888.929.7849 The Church photo by Drew Reynolds Ringo Starr & His All-Starr Band photo by Rob Shanahan Motionless in White photo by Jonathan Weiner, Apocalyptica photo by Christian Ripkens

Don’t Fight It REO Speedwagon has succeeded like very few bands in rock ’n’ roll history. From a sheer sales standpoint, they are one of the biggest-selling acts of the 1980s, with the album Hi Infidelity going diamond and selling over 10 million copies. While most people consider Speedwagon, a staple of soft rock radio, to be megastars of that genre, it is often forgotten that these guys can, and do, rock! The five-piece band, which formed in Champaign, Ill., spent a decade-plus as hard rockers before easing into adult contemporary icons. Listen to that storm siren intro to “Ridin’ the Storm Out,” a blaster that carries the momentum of the introduction to the finish line of the last note. Or check out the high-energy “157 Riverside Avenue,” a live set piece that features fierce vocal and guitar interplay. That’s not to discount the ballads. There is a reason the love songs are what Speedwagon is most known for. “Keep On Loving You” and “Can’t Fight This Feeling” both reached No. 1 on the singles charts and remain the favorites of countless hand-holding couples. No matter the decade, REO Speedwagon knows how to

What a Hit Machine Chuck Negron rose to the top with Three Dog Night as the ’60s gave way to the ’70s, scoring 11 top 10 hits and 12 gold albums alongside co-vocalists Danny Hutton and the late Cory Wells. The good times ended in the mid-’70s when their run of hits ended and Negron’s escalating drug addiction caused fissures within the band to widen. Rehab and renewed religious faith preceded a return to the stage, with Negron finding himself in full command of his vocal range as he began delivering hits such as “Joy to the World” and “Easy to Be Hard” as a solo act in the ’90s. In Three Dog Night, Negron sang lead on Harry Nilsson’s “One,” Laura Nyro’s “Eli’s Coming” and Paul Williams’ “An Old Fashioned Love Song,” recording definitive arrangements of those songs and boosting the composers’ careers. The surviving members of Three Dog Night are unlikely to ever reunite, but Negron is happy to sing his share of the hits, with his band helping him deliver them in three-part harmony. –Matt Kelemen

Imagine Dragons have been on a musical mission since their inception, but the band are doing more than taking their sound to another level as they launch their fall tour in support of their third album, Evolve. Singer Dan Reynolds got involved in activism in a big way this summer, launching a foundation and a festival to raise awareness and support for LBGTQ youth. He’s been interviewed about that recently about as much as the new album, which was released in May and reached No. 2 on the Billboard 200 album chart in July.

electronic and pop influences into their brand of alternative rock—one that’s been fully embraced by their growing legions of fans. That’s not surprising, as Reynolds, guitarist Wayne Sermon, drummer Daniel Platzman and bassist Ben McKee have been conscientious about their relationship with the audience from the get-go. The band paid its dues playing covers in Las Vegas casinos, but once Imagine Dragons began touring in support of independently produced EPs, they made it a point to bond with fans. And they made sure to be prepared for opportunities, such as
when they were called on to replace Train for a headlining slot at a 2009 Las Vegas food festival and had their first taste of playing before thousands of people, picking up many new converts in the process. Those efforts were instrumental in setting the stage for apparent overnight success. That would come in 2012 when Night Visions, their first major label album, was released and became a monster hit. Producer Alex Da Kid took Imagine Dragons’ original material, which fit in alongside the Coldplay and Arcade Fire covers they played during

Imagine Dragons continue their mindful musical ascent By Matt Kelemen their casino sets, and gave it a makeover. The EDM elements and sonic dynamism not only enhanced the material, but made songs such as “Radioactive” and “Demons” appropriate for both pop radio and the arenas Imagine Dragons would soon be headlining. Imagine Dragons bypassed a sophomore slump with 2015’s album Smoke + Mirrors, which went to No. 1 and was supported with a 10-month tour. The band finally got a break at the tour’s conclusion, leaving an exhausted Reynolds with nothing to distract him from his lifelong struggle with depression. Therapy
and rest helped him manage it, and inspired songs such as “Believer,” the first single from Evolve that seems both autobiographical and a direct address to fans. It was a tear-inducing letter from one fan that Reynolds says set the stage for the LoveLoud festival, which Imagine Dragons performed in on Aug. 26 in Orem, Utah, on a bill that included Neon Trees, Joshua James and Reynolds’ wife Aja Volkman, after a summer of performances at festivals and awards shows. Now all focus is on the fall shows and delivering new musical messages to the faith-
ful that add Queen, Passion Pit and M.I.A. influences to the Dragons’ established modern pop-rock sound. It’s been a steady climb to the top, but it looks like Imagine Dragons have built a firm enough foundation to stay there for a long time.

Depeche Mode have continuously converted new members to their worldwide congregation with each new release and corresponding concert trek, cultivating a generation-spanning audience during the nearly four decades they’ve been together. The current Global Spirit Tour is one of the top tours of the year, earning $46.5 million in its first 17 shows. Spirit, which was released in March, became their third highest-charting album in the band’s history, climbing higher than their 1990 masterwork, Violator. The band that helped bring synth-pop and industrial music to the masses has not only grown increasingly popular as their contemporaries clustered together for ’80s nostalgia tours, they’ve also remained artistically relevant. It’s a level of success they could hardly have imagined when co-founder Vince Clarke convinced Martin Gore and Andrew Fletcher to emphasize synthesizers over guitars in their Essex, England, band. After their buoyant and infectious first hit, “Just Can’t Get Enough” (1981), made them pin-up pop stars, Clarke split and Gore became Depeche Mode’s main songwriter.

, tonight it’s all about you. Whether you’re celebrating a birthday, getting hitched, getting over a divorce or just plain and simple need a serious girls night out, look no further than Magic Mike Live. Inspired by the hit films starring Channing Tatum, Magic Mike Live is not your average male revue. Lyndsay Hailey, the show’s emcee, describes the Las Vegas production as, “sexy, empowering and motivational.” Hailey, an alumna of Second City National Touring Company in Chicago with more than 10 years of comedy experience under her belt, co-wrote Magic Mike Live with Tatum. “It’s been amazing (working with him). He lets everybody freely express themselves and play at the top of their intelligence,” she says. “What sets it apart from other shows is the female voice, and that was super important to Channing. It’s really about what women find sexy. The main thing he told me: ‘I want you to put you into the show.’” And indeed she did. Inside the fictional Club Domina (a nod to the movies), Hailey calls upon her imaginary friend Unicorn (not the kind you had as a little girl but an adult one, with voiceover help from Tatum). Whatever Hailey wants, Hailey gets. Tired of seeing men dressed as firefighters and police officers? No problem. Opt for a man in jeans with a bare chest, and … poof! Just like that, not one but 13 dancers (off all different flavors) magically appear, ready to live out every woman’s fantasies. “Every night when I’m standing onstage and they turn to me and surf the crowd, I lose my breath every time. I’ve done this show over 180 times,” she chuckles. “I think it’s because I’m so excited about what’s about to happen. I love that part. It feels so powerful to be a part of that.” Magic Mike Live is full of many surprises. “Everything from the dance numbers to the writing and the selection of songs—there’s so many females involved in this process,” Hailey says. “It’s mostly about what we actually want.” One lucky lady gets her feet rubbed by a dancer named (what else?) Mike; another gets seduced on top of the bar to 50 Cent’s “Candy Shop”; still another one straps on tight for a sky-high flight. Add in steamy lap dances, tantalizing stripteases, a wet-and-wild scene and one epic finale to bring everyone to their feet. “The men are truly incredible,” she says. “It’s not an act for them. I feel like there is so much care taken on how the women are actually treated, what the men are saying. They’re making direct eye contact— you know, some little nuances that I feel are really different. Sort of like breaking boundaries forward. It’s a show about connection just as much as it is sexuality.”

Criss Angel levitates—and elevates—the art of magic Call him a freak. Dude doesn’t mind. When your show is titled Mindfreak Live!, you can’t mind the “freak” label, can ya? Besides, his freakiness is by design. “I wanted to create the ultimate magic experience, to embrace technology that no Vegas show up to this point has,” prestidigitation practitioner Criss Angel told Las Vegas Magazine. “A lot of the technologies I employ in the show are not even available yet to the public. 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.” And indeed, Angel gets his freak on in this witches’ brew of magical antics—more than 50 in 85 minutes. Elaborately conceived and rife with pyrotechnics, the production pinballs frenetically. Illusionary highlights 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. How does he do it? It’s a huge mystery. And yet the biggest mystery may be the man inside the magical veneer. In an attempt to crack that one, we gathered up some choice Angel nuggets uttered in recent years to various media outlets to probe the psyche of the often enigmatic entertainer: “Magic speaks to the child in all of us. No matter how sophisticated we become, there’s still a part of us who wants to believe in an alternative reality, where we can defy the laws of nature.” ... Actually, the 2016 election already accomplished that. “Pain is a beautiful thing. When you feel pain you know you’re alive.” ... Call me a wuss, but I’ll just check my pulse. “People fear so many things and they don’t live life to its fullest. For me as an artist, if God should
want me to do something this Wednesday to end my life, so be it.” ... You’ve got a show Wednesday, Criss. Raincheck? (Relax—he knows we’re joking). “I have mentally overcome situations most of you would be terrified to ever attempt: heights, fire, needles, spiders, snakes, angry monkeys, being shot, being hit by a car, going blind.” ... Yeah, those angry monkeys are a daily annoyance. “For me, it’s not about the money, it’s not about the fame. I love creating.” ... Fine, send me the first two. I’ll pay shipping fees. “Sometimes my art is just an illusion. Or is it?” ... No, it isn’t. Except it is. And just like that, logic is restored to its illogical logic. “I like to say magic is the world’s second oldest profession.” ... Done correctly, there’s something magical about the first oldest one, as well. “At the end of the day, I don’t care what people say.” ... We think you’re the bee’s knees. So we’re guessing there are exceptions to that, huh, buddy?

Anatomy gets an exotic twist in
REAL BODIES at Bally’s
MOST VACATIONERS IN VEGAS DON’T EXPECT TO SEE DEAD BODIES, but that’s exactly what visitors get when they happen upon REAL BODIES at Bally’s. In a winding series of walk-through exhibits, REAL BODIES displays authentic preserved human forms and remains that have undergone modern-day mummification. Skeletal, respiratory and circulatory, digestive, nervous and muscular systems get their due in depth, with specimens in various states of dissection and activity. Organs and bones lay under glass, themes of hunger and healing are explored, and various states of development and disease are uncovered in a way that Gray’s Anatomy can’t quite convey. With numerous wall-mounted factoids providing educational digressions along the way (“The amount of carbon in the body weighs 44 pounds, which can be used to produce 9,000 pencils.”), the journey begins with a human coffin and some context. The method used to create the cast of REAL BODIES is polymer preservation, or plastination, which was developed by anatomist Gunther von Hagens in the 1970s. By the ’90s it was possible to replace fats and fluids in an entire body with polymer resins, preventing decay and enabling the public exhibition of cadavers. It also made it possible to create unusual educational experiences. That education starts at REAL BODIES with the skeletal system, where the purposes and placements of skull bones such as the sphenoid and maxilla are explained, and the number of bones in the wrist and foot are revealed. Dried respiratory, circulatory and digestive organs from larynx and lung to cardiac valves to liver and gallbladder are kept in clear cases, sometimes surrounding more colorful anatomical examples such as a life-like pink and gray bronchial tree that could be mistaken for underwater coral. The length of a small intestine, liberated from its human host, is revealed, as is the amount of skin covering an adult male. The skin show gets its own room, but the real stars are scattered throughout REAL BODIES. More than 20 full-sized, polymer-preserved, formerly living human beings are posed in various activities—running, playing basketball, waving a conductor’s baton—and dissected so the inner workings revealed match the rooms’ themes. One body holds hands with what seems to be its own skeleton. Another is sliced in half along the median sagittal line, allowing an inside look from head to viscera. Healings and the beginning of life also get their due. Several rooms have a spooky atmosphere, including a skull-and-bones wall display where visitors with a penchant for the macabre can arrange to be married. For the most part, REAL BODIES is an educational journey, albeit taught by bodies that found new life in various states of dissection. A tour of REAL BODIES will leave visitors with a better understanding of how the body works, and in possession of impressive nuggets of anatomical trivia. Did you know, for example, the saliva you produce during your lifetime could fill two Olympic swimming pools? Bally’s, 10 a.m.-9 p.m. daily, last tour at 8 p.m., $29.95, $18 age 3-12. 702.777.2782

Just about anyone who was a motor-minded kid remembers the first time they saw go-kart racing. Whether it was on a track with expertly designed vehicles or in the street with a lowto-the-ground contraption powered by a lawnmower engine, the image becomes forever implanted and the desire to race go-karts becomes a plausible need-for-speed option in the years before one becomes drivers’ license age. Even after getting a license, the fantasy of that ultimate go-kart ride doesn’t just fade away. At Pole Position Raceway, it becomes reality. It doesn’t take more than a few circumventions around one of the indoor tracks that Pole Position Raceway provides at its two Las Vegas locations to get hooked. The state-of-the-art electric Formula EK20 adult karts are capable of speeds up to 45 mph but are easy to control as long as drivers meet the 48-inch minimum height requirement. The karts accelerate smoothly right out of the gate, allowing “karters” to immediately gain speed on the brief straight-
away leading into twists and turns that become easier to handle with every lap. It’s a highly satisfying fix for adrenaline junkies, and leaves drivers breathless once the checkered flag waves them in. Pole Position’s motto is “Built for racers, by racers,” and the quality standards testify to the integrity of that statement. The facility just west of the Strip off of Flamingo Road is beautiful inside and out, with a spacious track area dominated by the yellow-and-black color scheme of the racing barriers. The numbered red-and-black karts gleam beneath the lights as they wait for the next racers to take them on fumeless rides that are easy on the ears thanks to noncombustible electric power. Millions of dollars went into the design and construction of both track and karts, with co-founders Jason Williams and Ken Faught opening several locations before they teamed with current company chief operating officer Brad Mark to apply the lessons from those venues to their Vegas raceways. They also enlisted celebrities like
Nascar driver Kurt Busch and pit correspondent Jamie Little to help out with pre-racing information and orientation videos. Up to 13 drivers can race at the same time inside the South Arville Street location near the Strip, while the Summerlin location can accommodate up to 10. Parties, corporate groups and special races are offered, as well as a sizable selection of arcade games dominated by racing simulators. Staff members are highly personable and well trained in helping guests feel comfortable in order to maximize having a good time. All that matters when you get behind the wheel is momentum though, and the EK20s provide that in the smoothest way possible. Pole Position provides driver stats via a SpeedSheet with results for rankings, times and driving skills. The Las Vegas locations also have hand-controlled karts for disabled racers. Go-kart racing has evolved into go-kart culture, and there is no better place to start than the electric indoor karting offered by Pole Position Raceway.
4175 S. Arville St., 11 a.m.-11 p.m. Sun.-Thurs., 11 a.m.-midnight Fri.-Sat., races start at $18, 702.227.7223 7350 Prairie Falcon Road, 11 a.m.-8 p.m. Sun., 1-10 p.m. Mon.-Thurs., 11 a.m.-midnight Fri.-Sat., races start at $18, 702.227.7223

Kevin Hart enjoyed a VIP cabana with his wife, Eniko Parrish, at Tao Beach in The Venetian. Also recently enjoying a VIP cabana at Tao Beach was Ty Dolla $ign, partying with some friends. He later enjoyed a meal at Tao Asian Bistro with a group of 30 friends, including Wiz Khalifa, songwriter Poo Bear and DJ Mustard. Real Housewives of Beverly Hills stars Dorit and PK Kemsley enjoyed a performance of Mike Tyson Undisputed Truth: Round 2 at MGM Grand, going backstage afterwards to meet the former heavyweight champ. Other recent attendees include UFC stars Nick Diaz and Yancey Medeiros. Parks and Recreation star Aubrey Plaza celebrated her sister’s birthday in a cabana at Marquee Dayclub in The Cosmopolitan. New Orleans Pelicans player Rajon Rondo enjoyed an evening in the Hublot Chairman’s Suite at Topgolf Las Vegas at MGM Grand. In the bungalow bays next door, Fabolous, Jeezy, Chris Brown and Trey Songz enjoyed a funfilled evening. A recent performance by Steve Aoki at Hakkasan at MGM Grand was enjoyed by several celebrities, including Brody Jenner, former Dallas Cowboy Michael Irvin and stock car racer James “Denny” Hamlin. A recent performance by J. Cole at Jewel Nightclub at Aria was a star-studded affair. Enjoying Cole’s performance were Draymond Green, Chance the Rapper and Jamie Foxx. When Foxx returned to Jewel the following night to perform a set of his own, celebrities spotted in the crowd included Leonardo DiCaprio and Tobey Maguire. When Foxx spotted DiCaprio, dressed casually with a black ballcap over his eyes, he drew attention to the Oscarwinning actor. As the crowd began chanting his name, DiCaprio captured the whole thing on his phone.
