George Wallace
Comedian returns to Vegas stage After he finished a long, successful run at the Flamingo in 2014, George Wallace needed a bit of a break from Las Vegas. But the comedian maintained his home here and found the right fit for a comeback at the Westgate Cabaret. Wallace has been busy since he left the Strip, touring the country’s stand-up stages and filming plenty of movies and TV shows. He’s one of the city’s all-time favorite funnymen, and he’s happy to be back in a storied casino showroom. The Westgate has added so many entertainment options in a short period of time—Barry Manilow, magician Jen Kramer and yourself. What is it you love about performing there? I like all the changes they’ve made. I had (other offers) but this one I could not refuse because I didn’t want to do what I did before, where I have to (manage) the show. They put me on salary, so I said, “Let’s do it. Let’s have some fun.” Why did you decide to take some time away from performing in Las Vegas? Me and my best friend of 42 years, and that’s Jerry (Seinfeld), we tend to manage each other. He helped me (realize) that I needed to do something new. I had been in Las Vegas so long, I had lost a whole generation of audiences, so I went to work to do movies and things to get to know the younger crowd. I just finished a 35-city tour. I did a voice on Bob’s Burgers. I finished a movie with Morgan Freeman and another one with Chevy Chase and Richard Dreyfuss. I quit Vegas to do these things. My goal in life when I started out in ’76 and ’77 was to work in Las Vegas. I remember a comedian that was making $400,000 a year but I always thought it’s not how much money you make, it’s how much you enjoy
12 7.15.18 LasVegasMagazine.com
life while you’re living. That’s good enough for me. I don’t have to make all the money. And I can go pee. They can’t go pee. They have paparazzi all over. I’m in a good place and I make enough. I’m sure you have loads of new material to work into your new show. You’ve always kept it pretty clean onstage. Are you going to change that? I can out-cuss all of y’all, but the reason I don’t is we grew up in an era when the biggest stages for comedy were on programs like The Tonight Show and all those TV shows of the ’80s. You had to keep everything clean for TV. I’m glad Def Comedy Jam came along and that these kids express themselves differently now. The fact is it’s harder to be clean and be very funny. I prefer to do it with substance. How different is performing in Vegas? Is that old stigma gone about Vegas comedy audiences being comped, so they’re less interested in the show? In a way, yes. Some people still don’t know who you are because they get tickets. What’s good about Vegas is if you can make them laugh, you’re going to be good all over, because the audience in Vegas is from all over the world. You can specialize. And I’ve been all over the world. I
can relate to you whether you’re from Dubai or Manila or Singapore or Shanghai. No matter where you’re from, I was probably there yesterday. You’ve seen Vegas change a lot over the years. It sure has. People in Las Vegas are paying a thousand dollars to see guys sliding all over on some ice! Vegas is crazy. They’re
building the Raiders’ stadium with no new streets around it, but you’ve got all these new, winding streets downtown. Who the (expletive) needs to get downtown that fast? But Vegas is building again and it’s gonna be great. Property values are going up. I bought my condo in Las Vegas in ’09 back when everything was 40 percent off and now everything is back up..

Living the Impossible Since most consider David Copperfield the first name in magic, it’s only natural to assume his show at MGM Grand will feel familiar. But whether or not you’ve already seen him onstage in Las Vegas, you will be absolutely astounded. Copperfield’s performance is constantly changing and evolving, he’s always adding new illusions large and small to the show, and the most
grand elements of the production are simply without equal. You may know him, but that won’t stop you from leaving his theater in disbelief. Meeting his friends Blu the alien and Frank the T. Rex is something I never expected. “It’s all about changing the way people think about magic,” Copperfield told me after the show. He performs twice nightly and three times on Saturday.
Red Rock Reggae The nightclub space at Summerlin’s swanky Red Rock Resort has been mostly dormant lately, reserved only for special events, but Crimson is coming alive this week with a live performance from rising reggae star Conkarah on July 21. The Kingston, Jamaica-born artist also known as Nicholas Murray boasts more than 70 million views on his YouTube channel as many consumers have discovered his unique sound thanks to covers of high-profile pop hits like Adele’s “Hello,” Ed Sheeran’s “Perfect” and Sam Smith’s “Too Good at Goodbyes.” That approach proved to be so successful, he recently released a full album of covers that also includes memorable tunes like Luis Fonsi’s “Despacito” and Katy Perry’s “Firework.”

Magician Mat Franco is full-steam ahead in his eponymous theater at the Linq Hotel and Casino. Earlier this month the America’s Got Talent champion celebrated the 1,000th performance of Mat Franco: Magic Reinvented Nightly, which opened in 2015. Franco is constantly updating his act to add even more audience participation and connectivity, one of the magical elements that keeps fans coming back again and again. The longest-running show on the Las Vegas Strip is making changes to celebrate its 35th anniversary. Legends in Concert at the Flamingo has launched a fresh set of acts to rule the stage through Sept. 9. Tribute artists will portray Michael Jackson, Tina Turner, Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Jon Bon Jovi and Bob Marley. Former Las Vegas resident NeYo celebrated the release of his new album Good Man with a party at the Palms’ Apex Social Club. Guests got a special performance from the R&B crooner, who unleashed hits “Closer” and “Miss Independent.” Celine Dion won’t be back at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace until late October, but she’s not taking a summer vacation. She recently launched a 22-city tour across the Asian Pacific region with a sold-out performance at the Tokyo Dome, and a group of Caesars executives were in the house to cheer and support their star. The global entertainment and hospitality company is planning to build a resort in Japan in Osaka or Tomakomai.

HOT PICKS Dazzling Nightlife A combination of nightclub and restaurant, the five-story Hakkasan is a world of chinoiserie beauty and the epitome of nightlife extravagance. There’s the Ling Ling Club and Ling Ling Lounge—two intimate spaces playing downtempo and hip-hop. The main nightclub is enveloped in floorto-ceiling LED screens with a massive DJ booth; and the pavilion is a garden oasis with a breathtaking water feature. –Kiko Miyasato MGM Grand, opens at 10:30 p.m. Thurs.-Sun. 702.891.3838
Dine With Style It’s sleek, it’s sexy and it has sumptuous food. Lavo has long been a hot spot for a group of ladies to begin their evening’s festivities. With a large menu of both indulgent and light Italian bites, feast indoors in the candlelit dining area, or on the patio overlooking the Strip. You won’t have to travel far to party either; Lavo nightclub is just one flight up. –KM The Palazzo, brunch 10 a.m.-4 p.m. Sun. & 10 a.m.-2 p.m. Sat., party brunch at 2 p.m. Sat., dinner 5-11 p.m. daily. 702.791.1800

Slow Jams, Serenades and Soul R&B trio only gets better with time Four Grammy Awards, 9 American Music Awards, 7 Soul Train Awards, more than 60 million albums sold ... those are just some of the accolades from one of the best-selling R&B groups of all time. From 10 to one, just like in “Uhh Ahh” from their debut album Cooleyhighharmony, Boyz II Men—comprised of Wanya Morris, Nathan Morris and Shawn Stockman—count down right before stepping into the spotlight. The trio run through some of their biggest hits spanning more than two decades, including

the tearful, mellow “It’s So Hard to Say Goodbye to Yesterday” and the beautiful dedication to mothers, “A Song for Mama,” in addition to “On Bended Knee” and “Water Runs Dry” from their Grammy Award-winning album II. Getting serenaded by these three is no myth; after all, they are known to have a few sexy slow jams or two. During “I’ll Make Love to You,” long-stemmed red roses are given out to lucky ladies, while their live rendition of “End of the Road” gets more up close and personal with in-the-audience action.
In a trip down memory lane, the fellas take it back to their high school days in Philly, singing The Five Satins’ “In the Still of the Night”—a capella style. The Temptations’ “My Girl” and Smokey Robinson’s “The Tracks of My Tears” make the set list as Boyz II Men pay homage in a moving Motown tribute. But no Boyz II Men show is complete without the hip-hop feel-good sounds of “Motownphilly,” a track that depicts where their rise to fame all began. Philly is here to stay. –Chanelle Hayes

Heavy Observations Jim Gaffigan is fat. That’s not meant to be a disparaging comment—after all, the comedian’s excessive girth has been the primary focus of his act for years. He even titled his two books Food: A Love Story and Dad Is Fat. To understand Gaffigan’s ongoing battle with the bulge, one need look no further than his material. For starters, he’s not a big fan of
16 7.15.18 LasVegasMagazine.com
fruit (“Has peeling an orange ever really been worth it?”), even admitting he once didn’t instantly recognize a bowl of apples (“It was so odd to see them outside of a pie”). As much as Gaffigan abhors fruit, he has even less use for vegetables, especially kale, the taste of which he equates to both “bitter spinach with hair” and bug spray. (“I once saw
a can of bug spray that said ‘Made with real kale.’”). Conversely, he worships bacon and donuts (“Ever met someone who doesn’t like a donut? Want know why? Because they’re in jail”), and insists that McDonald’s fries are nonpareil (“Has your mother ever made anything that tastes better than the McDonald’s fry? Not even close”). –Matt Jacob

The Right Direction If things had gone just a little differently for rising country star Kane Brown, he could be a big-time pop-R&B singer right now. Growing up in rural Georgia and Tennessee, Brown sang in his school choir and spent his time listening to both R&B and country music. One of his high school classmates, Lauren Alaina, went on to place second in the 10th season of American Idol, and Brown was set to follow in her footsteps as a TV singing-contest performer on The X Factor until that show’s producers wanted to place him in a boy band with other contestants. So instead of becoming a member of the next version of One Direction, Brown struck out on his own, first posting covers of popular songs on YouTube and then recording an independent six-song EP in Nashville in 2014. That EP spawned Brown’s first country hit, “Don’t Go City On Me,” and since then he’s scored major airplay on country radio with singles including “Used to Love You Sober,” “Heaven” and “What Ifs,” a duet with Alaina, who’s become a country star in her own right. Going his own way has allowed Brown to end up right where he needs to be. –Josh Bell

Bruno Mars’ “Uptown Funk” to the dancing and playful, knowing winks to Touch and Go’s “Would You?” There’s also humor. A lucky audience member gets pulled onstage during the “Mile High Club” segment scored to Lenny Kravitz’s “Fly Away,” and comedians James Bean and Nancy Ryan provide hilarious insights midway in the show. “X” Burlesque has been on the Strip for a decade and a half, and it’s not hard to see why its lasted so long. –Ken Miller
To step into the world of David Goldrake: Imaginarium is to experience magic in the grand tradition: dramatic music, large props (including an hourglass, a “time machine” and a water escape), and even a few worldclass acrobats sprinkled in here and there.

And, of course, there’s plenty of audience participation, and the engaging Goldrake will keep you laughing in between his miraculous feats. –KM Tropicana, 7 p.m. Tues.-Sun., $49-$79 VIP. 800.829.9034

All the Hits It doesn’t matter if you’re a true Fanilow or if you only know the words to “Mandy”—you’re going to get all the hits when you catch Barry Manilow in his new Las Vegas residency. The superstar singer and songwriter told Las Vegas Magazine he’s honed his set down to the audience’s absolute favorites: “I would try to throw in an album cut and they’d be okay with it but then I’d do ‘Can’t Smile Without You’ and the roof would cave in. They were telling me what they wanted.” So warm up your vocal cords for a spectacular sing-along and get ready for “I Write the Songs,” “Weekend in New England,” “Copacabana” and many more. Expect Manilow’s famous cover of the Four Seasons’ tune “Let’s Hang On!” and maybe a little “Strangers in the Night,” too. If you want it, you’re going to get it. –Brock Radke Westgate Las Vegas, 8 p.m. July 1921 & 26-28, $19.75-$329.75 plus tax and fee. 702.732.5111
Speaking His Mind Where Bill Maher goes, controversy follows. The 62-year-old comedian was fired from his revolutionary ABC talk show, Politically Incorrect, only to land on his feet at HBO, where he has taken politicians to task for 16 seasons on his similar yet even more boundary-defying Real Time with Bill Maher. It seems each week Maher touches a hot button with such force that he finds himself in more hot water. Yet the New Jersey-raised comedian has developed such a cult following that HBO has already renewed the show through 2020, and despite who’s in the White House, Maher always has plenty to talk about.

Sure, Maher might want you to forget his acting career, which featured roles in such classics as Cannibal Women in the Avocado Jungle of Death, Pizza Man, Ratboy and the made-for-TV film Club Med. Even he would joke about those roles. But Maher found his voice as a political comedian, which has netted him a bevy of comedy specials along with a variety of “as himself” appearances in more mainstream movies plus a busy touring schedule in A-list venues throughout the world. Love him or hate him, you know Bill Maher always speaks his mind. And for that, his fans love him. –Jason Harris

Emo Empire Anthony Green is something of an emo trailblazer. He’s currently the frontman for two of the most influential bands in the genre, Saosin and Circa Survive, and he’s pursued a successful solo career since 2008. That’s in addition to his work on side projects including The Sound of Animals Fighting and High and Driving. Music fans could get an entire education in the genre just by listening to Green’s work. Although he was the original vocalist for Saosin, Green wasn’t in the band when they made their 2006 major-label debut. Instead, he was fronting Circa Survive,
and the two bands rose to prominence in the emo/post-hardcore scene. Green has released six albums with Circa Survive, and he returned to Saosin in 2014, releasing his first full-length album with the band 12 years after he initially left. Fans of both bands should be happy with Green’s current solo tour, but the main focus is on the 10th anniversary of his solo debut, Avalon, which he’ll be playing in full. He also just released his fifth solo album, Would You Still Be in Love, last month, giving him even more material to add to his emo empire. –Josh Bell

Set Them Free
Topless pools provide some adults-only fun One of the more enticing aspects of vacationing in Las Vegas is getting the chance to let loose and shed your inhibitions—and the city offers plenty of places to indulge that willingness. For example: topless pools. There’s a handful of 21-and-over watery playgrounds. Each one has its own unique environments and amenities, but all of them welcome ladies to lose their tops while soaking in the sun and enjoying an upscale, secure atmosphere. Head to The Mirage and take the winding path flanked by towering palms trees and lush foliage and you’ll happen upon Bare Pool Lounge, an intimate, 14,000-square-foot, tropical escape where guests can settle into a cabana or daybed. Or book one of the VIP daybeds located on an

At Venus European Pool Lounge at Caesars Palace, indulge in poolside services that include not only massages but body art. The interior is reminiscent of Rome with white columns and cascading green vines, and the cabanas are some of the most spacious you’ll find on the

Gordon Ramsay offers five different dining options on the Strip By Brock Radke Now that he’s at the helm of five Las Vegas Strip restaurants, world-beating celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay is able to offer a wide array of favorite dishes and versatile dining experiences to his many fans and followers from around the globe, all within walking distance on Las Vegas Boulevard. The best place to start a true Tour de Ramsay is his first Vegas spot, Gordon Ramsay Steak at Paris. The stylish entryway serves as a Chunnel-like voyage from France to the United Kingdom, Ramsay’s home and the birthplace of his cuisine, and the bright Union

Jack across the steakhouse ceiling reinforces the feeling. Start with a shellfish platter or traditional caviar service and throw in some British-style onion soup made with Boddingtons Pub Ale before the main event: prime beef from the finest purveyors in America and Japan. Try to save some room for the beloved sticky toffee pudding dessert. Ramsay doubled down for real in Las Vegas, opening his second and third restaurants within days of each other, both informal favorites that always attract a hungry crowd.

Gordon Ramsay Burger
parade of great beers and classic bar snacks, sandwiches and straight-off-the-grill standards. Maine lobster and shrimp rolls, a bacon burger with sharp cheddar cheese, hearty steak and ale pie and exquisite butter chicken curry are among the most popular orders at this pub. Gordon Ramsay Burger at Planet Hollywood Resort focuses on that most American of meals but executes each fabulous burger, every order of truffle Parmesan fries and each milkshake with refined flair and creativity. Share the burnt ends poutine, smothered in black pepper gravy, with your friends before keeping your burger all to yourself. We recommend the exotic Mediterranean Burger with tandoori lamb patty, feta cheese and tabbouleh salad. Ramsay recreates his childhood summers with Gordon Ramsay Fish & Chips at the Linq Promenade, a counter-service or takeout tribute to the best-known English street food. This small, colorful spot goes through more than 25,000 pounds of potatoes every month to create those perfectly crisp and pillowy chips, best enjoyed with a liberal dip in curry-mango sauce or southwestern ranch. Save the housemade tartar sauce for hand-cut, fresh cod fillets battered and cooked to order, often called the best fish and chips in all of Las Vegas. Or change it up with fried shrimp, chicken or sausage. Spice up those chips with “dirty” flavor varieties including truffle, Parmesan and chive or cacciatore spice with fresh basil. The culmination of the superchef’s Las Vegas efforts is his newest addition: Hell’s Kitchen at Caesars Palace, unmissable on the Strip-front corner of Las Vegas Boulevard and Flamingo Road. Inside this pristine palace, the popular TV cooking competition show of the same name springs to life, complete with red and blue kitchens and a studio-like brasserie environment where signature dishes like Beef Wellington, pan-seared scallops with English pea puree and roasted rack of lamb fly out of the kitchen at a furious pace. Order extra side dishes here, flavor-packed selections like smoked Gouda macaroni and cheese, roasted cauliflower with mint and chili-lime gremolata and potato puree decked out in crème fraiche. Like Ramsay himself, these dishes just don’t quit.

Abie Mae Durst She’s the life of the party
Being able to throw a fabulous party or put together a successful event is definitely a talent, and it’s one Abie Mae Durst has in spades. For nearly a decade the Ohio native has done event coordinating at various jobs; it was a job in Florida—where she worked with a restaurant and event space—where she first got the title of event coordinator. While in the Sunshine State, Durst’s brother convinced her to bring her talents to Las Vegas. So she moved to the city in January, and by March she was hired on at celebrity chef Rick Moonen’s restaurants, Rx Boiler Room and RM Seafood at The Shoppes at Mandalay Place, where she’s currently the special events and catering manager. “Working with Rick has been a dream come true,” Durst said. “He is so nice and humble—

nothing that you would think a celebrity chef would be.” Durst breaks her job down quite easily: “It’s simple—you pick the food, you pick the drink, you pick which venue and then I make it all happen seamlessly,” she said. She’s put together both small and large parties at both restaurants, and she’s done it successfully, beginning to end. “The synergy and energy that comes from Vegas is like no other city in the world,” she said. “Putting together events here are so much bigger and better and fabulous. … You know they say things happen quickly here in Vegas? Well, I moved here, got an amazing job with an amazing chef at two amazing restaurants. … Life goes fast, and you have to appreciate every single bit of it and this is such an amazing job, life, everything.” –Kiko Miyasato
According to Durst, “RM Seafood restaurant is more clean-cut, about seafood, it has an East Coast vibe; Rx Boiler Room is more romantic, eclectic, rustic, with great craft cocktails.” And Rx is where you’ll find the Smoked Whisky & Cola. Made with Old Forester bourbon, Angostura bitters and a splash of soda water, the cola syrup is made in-house with a special blend of orange, lemon and lime zest, vanilla bean, star anise, cloves, ginger, nutmeg, cinnamon, banana peels, citric acid, maple syrup, caramelized sugar and raw sugar. The mixture is cooked and strained and sits overnight, and each batch lasts about two weeks. –KM

Jessa Hinton
Former Playmate loves being real She looks like Jessica Rabbit brought to life—scarlet curls, ample curves and a smoldering stare that yanks the camera’s attention. Jessa Hinton could get away with just being gorgeous, but that’s not really her style. Next to an Instagram shot of the model and influencer splayed on a beach in black lace lingerie, the caption has nothing to do with her love of the ocean, being a Cali girl or feeling #blessed. “When you fall but play it off,” the text reads. Oh great, she’s funny, too. Hinton, who lives in Los Angeles with her son, has been in front of the camera for most of her life. A child actor, she got her start in modeling after moving to Las Vegas in 2009, working as a cocktail server on the Strip and posing for ad campaigns for Light nightclub and Ditch Fridays. “I thought it was pretty cool to be kind of the face of Las Vegas,” says Hinton, who appeared as Miss July 2011 in an issue of Playboy magazine. Bucking conventional wisdom, Hinton says that her career hasn’t fizzled as she’s grown up. “The more that I aged, the more that I worked,” she says. “I’m not a spring chicken. I’ve been doing this for a while.” These days she’s focused on building her following on social media, where 1.2 million people tune into her Instagram posts under the handle @jessahinton. Soon she’ll be expanding into YouTube and launching a mom blog geared toward working women who want frank talk about raising kids while running a business. “People tend to connect more with realness,” Hinton says. “I air all the hard stuff. I air the stuff I talk about with my son.” Of her modeling and influencer career, Hinton stresses that it’s far less glamorous than what appears on the screen. “I work very hard for the things that I have,” she says. “You have to keep evolving. Then you’re going to be fine.” –Sarah Feldberg

The Gloved One’s legacy inspires the entire cast of Michael Jackson ONE By Matt Kelemen CHOREOGRAPHY IS IMPORTANT IN ALL CIRQUE DU SOLEIL’S LAS VEGAS PRODUCTIONS, but only Michael Jackson ONE was entirely inspired by an icon of dance who directly influenced most, if not all, of its cast members. Whether emulating Jackson’s style, paying tribute to his trademark moves or expressing his spirit through entirely fresh and original choreography, the fleet feet that touch the stage at Mandalay Bay belong to seasoned professionals who all came of age after the King of Pop’s influence on the world of dance had become both widespread and well-established. Michael Jackson ONE’s fifth anniversary this month is a landmark for both the production and the careers of the people who have been involved with the show since its inception. Dance coach Tiffany Baker, who joined Michael Jackson ONE during its creation, says the show is at a strong point right now. “We’re consistently working on trying to strengthen different elements, make a storyline really visible with the audience,” she says. “With the cast constantly changing we bring in different strengths and different skills that can really help elevate a lot of our acts.”

Logic’s messages of positivity reverberate with millions If Kanye West is Yeezus and Kendrick Lamar is hip-hop’s most prominent prophet, rapper Logic is an evangelical apostle preaching messages of positivity to a new-generation congregation. He was converted after experiencing RZA’s score to Quentin Tarantino’s Kill Bill: Volume 1, channeled his naturally upbeat personality into a technically dazzling lyrical delivery, and commenced building his own hip-hop universe in which Neil deGrasse Tyson plays God and legions of fans literally thank him for saving their lives. He’s a nerdy, hip-hop Tony Robbins at a phase in his career when ambitions are high and possibilities seem limitless. Logic was born Sir Robert Bryson Hall II to an African-American father and Caucasian mother in Gaithersburg, Md., an ethnically and economically diverse city adjacent to Baltimore and Washington, D.C. Young Logic’s family occupied the lower rungs of Gaithersburg’s social class ladder and was beset by drug addiction, dysfunction and racial harassment. Identity and overcoming adversity would be major subject matter for later lyrical material, but Logic honed a natural knack for thinking fast and rapping faster into a speed-of-sound style. He quickly advanced through the ranks of DMV-area (Delaware-Maryland-Virginia) rappers, debuting as “Psychological” before he shortened the name by three syllables. He adapted Frank Sinatra as an aspirational totem, addressing himself as Young Sinatra at times and dubbing his circle of collaborators and colleagues “The Rattpack.” Logic developed a nonstop stage presence, pacing like an espresso-fueled panther and releasing

torrents of verse while making direct connections with his fans. He found he could demonstrate his extranormal hyper-attentive abilities by solving a Rubik’s Cube while performing, and explained his reasoning for considering himself hip-hop’s greatest living rapper “at the mic” in “Wizard of Oz”: “I think I’m the best rapper alive/ ‘Cause they tell me I’m the best rapper alive.” That song is from his latest long-form release Bobby Tarantino II, which debuted at No. 1 in March. The sequel to his 2016 mixtape Bobby Tarantino was released with two days’ notice, and features Logic emphasizing the time-honored rap tradition of braggadocio. Both recordings contrast with 2017’s Everybody, a sci-fi concept album that contained singles for the title cut, “Black Spiderman,” and the song that cemented his superstardom, “1-800-273-8255.” Taking its title from the phone digits for the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, Logic created an anti-suicide jam that struck a chord with fans who already looked up to him for his positive attitude and relatability. He also got iconic astrophysicist Tyson to lend his voice to the album as God for between-track skits, indicating the reach of influence he’s achieved in a decade-long career. He has his detractors who deride his uplifting banter as corny, but they are not who Logic speaks to. Logic’s positivity messages led to fan worship on a messianic scale, and the intensity of their faith is dramatically illustrated in the initial episode of Netflix documentary series Rapture. He can bring them to tears, but he knows those tears come from a place of happiness where his music provides the score.

“Performances are a rush,” said Las Vegas singer and musician Frankie Moreno (The Smith Center, 702.749.2000). But he also finds it extremely satisfying to compose music. In an interview with Las Vegas Magazine, Moreno talked about his upcoming show at The Smith Center along with his love of music. “I’m always trying to find new ways to make the shows interesting, and here (Smith

Center), I can experiment and try new things I don’t do regularly,” he said. Moreno is a prolific composer and shared that he, along with his brother Tony, who is the bass player in the band, write one or two songs a day. “Writing taps into people’s emotions, which can be the most powerful or weak moments of (someone’s) life. It’s what we do!” His music, Moreno said, is comfortable for people to

connect with and enjoy. “I know what works for us in front of a crowd. If you are fans of ours, you’re going to get it.” Moreno’s show at The Smith Center covers a broad range of styles, from vintage sounds to modern. The artist, who started as a child prodigy pianist, explained that he always wants to be one step ahead with his music and works to accomplish this every day. –Penny Levin

downtown life Las Vegas offers an endless array of options for whatever you’re in the mood for, and that includes Downtown. To help you get the most out of your time there, our staff has compiled some recommendations—everything from where to eat to what to see.
ENTERTAINMENT
Menus and Mystery DINING
That’s Italian!
There are many excellent restaurants Downtown, but lovers of classic Italian should head straight to Grotto at Golden Nugget. The selection ranges from paninis, sandwiches, pizzas and parmigiana during lunch to pastas, zuppas and traditional entrées for dinner, including veal kickerillo, pictured, a unique offering with Parmesan-crusted veal scaloppine awash in lemons and mushrooms with hints of citrus highlighting the dish. And don’t miss out on the first-class wine selection. –Las Vegas Magazine Staff Golden Nugget, 11:30 a.m.-10:30 p.m. Sun.-Thurs., 11:30 a.m.-11:30 p.m. Fri.-Sat., pizza available at the bar till midnight Sun.-Thurs., till 1 a.m. Fri.Sat. 702.386.8341
DRINK
Beer O’Clock
Las Vegas’ craft beer scene is impressive, and you can start your journey at Banger Brewing, a friendly, welcoming business launched by beer fanatics. Almost nothing is off limits here, from a blueberry rhubarb sour to a gin barrel-aged imperial IPA. Start your experience with a flight, and then settle down with a full glass. –Ken Miller 450 Fremont St., #135, noon-midnight Sun.-Thurs., noon-1 a.m. Fri.-Sat. 702.456.2739

Marriage Can Be Murder, but for real life husband and wife Jayne and Eric Post it is an interactive dinner show they created nearly 20 ago and have been entertaining audiences with ever since. Eric Post said, “It’s food, death, food, death, food, lots of guest interaction and laughs. We change the show every three months, with the basic script being the same for this time period, but each night the show is a little different because of the people attending.” The former Navy lieutenant portrays the cop who is there to solve a murder, and whose banter with the ditzy hostess of the party (his wife Jayne for many of those nights) sets the tone for a comedic mystery. “There aren’t many comedic teams left (in show business),” he points out, adding, “Ninety percent of the time my wife gets some idea or joke and I come up with the rest of the script.” The remainder of the plot is written around the people he casts. One thing is constant: Actors are planted within the unsuspecting guests and the suspect is hiding in the crowd. Now diners have the opportunity to solve the murder with the help of clues sprinkled throughout the meal. Happy sleuthing! –Penny Levin The D, 6:30 p.m. daily, $71.95-$101.95 plus tax and fee, includes three-course meal and show. 702.388.2111
