John Lloyd Young Former ‘Jersey Boys’ star takes the off-Strip stage
Vegas audiences could never get enough of Jersey Boys, the behindthe-scenes Broadway musical about Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons that ran for eight years. John Lloyd Young originated the role of Valli in Broadway’s Jersey Boys and played the part again in the 2014 Clint Eastwood-directed film version. The actor and singer told me the beloved music from Jersey Boys will always play a part in his performances and he’s onstage in Las Vegas Sept. 14 and 15 at The Space, the upstart arts complex just off the Strip (find it at thespacelv.com). You’ve been performing different styles of music lately, including the R&B tunes from your album My Turn. What should we expect for your Vegas shows at The Space? Vegas is a really a distinct place where we can do a more electric set. It’s a more electric city. We’ve done throwback R&B, obviously some doo-wop with my background with Jersey Boys, and a Broadway set is a brand-new thing we’ve been asked to do more in New York City. But I think the Vegas shows continue to be the most exciting. Whether it’s rock and roll or our originals, a lot of the songs still have that retro feeling and they’re just exciting songs. I always have a few of those in every set wherever I play, but I load up on them for these shows. What kind of music is inspiring you right now? When I try to describe where I’m going musically, I am finding the songs are taking on a flavor of James Bond movies or spaghetti westerns from Sergio Leone and Ennio Morricone. ... The music has a very cinematic feeling. I would say excitement and intrigue are two of the words that get me going when it comes to what kinds of songs I want to do. I’m trying to go for something where
12 9.9.18 LasVegasMagazine.com
there’s a rawness to it and at the same time, a gentleman-ness.... Jersey Boys was truly a starmaking turn for you and you’ll always be connected to that show. Do you find yourself moving away from that music intentionally or is it a more natural progression? I think it’s the natural evolution of things. You know, Frankie Valli is still Frankie Valli. He’s playing shows. It’s been my life’s privilege to play him and so great how that show turned into an international phenomenon. I’ll always be known for that show and I’m happily expected to sing songs from that period, which I do and I’ll never stop doing that. Because of that exposure, I’m in a place where people want to hear me sing, but what do I sing? That’s got to be my decision going forward. Frankie hit a point in his career where he didn’t want to be known just for that falsetto from “Sherry” and “Big Girls Don’t Cry.” He felt that sound that put them on the map was in some ways a dead-end street, so when he sang solo it was more the meat of his voice ... At some point you have to diverge from what you’re known for without taking the audience completely out of that world, because that’s what they want.
Before Jersey Boys you were a theater actor. Do you ever get the itch to return to acting? I steadily worked myself up in New York and then Jersey Boys happened and it was a starring role in a major hit and I got a taste for what that’s like. I’m not as interested in just being an actor in an ensemble show unless it’s a role I really want to do. Being sort of the de facto CEO of my own enterprise, a solo artist singing in concert is an exciting way to have independence and choose the material I want to do. Acting in a film is very exciting and I would
like to do more of that if it fits into my schedule of singing, which is really my passion right now. You’re also a visual artist. Is it difficult to find time for other creative pursuits? No. A career in the arts has downtime. In fact, I was just moving a large amount of artwork from a storage facility. I have a big inventory always ready for a show. It can be tricky to schedule things but that’s why I like to do things like these shows at The Space, which keeps me out playing somewhere about once a month.

Around the Strip Brock Radke is an award-winning entertainment reporter who has been covering the city since 2000, and interviews key movers and shakers on his All The Vegas podcast, available at allthevegas.com.
Get Down Tonight Located just west of the Strip on Sahara Avenue, Palace Station is a different kind of Vegas icon, the enterprise that spawned the phenomenon of the neighborhood casino serving locals looking for their own brand of fun and entertainment. Palace Station is celebrating its grand re-opening this week by bringing
in a pair of icons in their own right, disco and dance music paragons KC & The Sunshine Band and the Village People, performing Sept. 15. With “Get Down Tonight,” “That’s The Way (I Like It),” “Macho Man” and “Y.M.C.A,” this promises to be a night of fun flashbacks celebrating the past and the future.
Making Musical Memories The instrumental “Soul Sacrifice” is remembered as one of the musical highlights of the legendary 1969 Woodstock festival, a prime example of Carlos Santana’s signature blend of traditional Latin rhythms with soaring American rock ‘n roll. It’s a safe bet you’ll catch the song when Santana returns to his blockbuster residency at the House of Blues at Mandalay Bay Sept. 12-23. The show was just extended into 2019 and tickets are now on sale for January and February performances, marking the seventh year of this celebrated live concert experience at one of Las Vegas’ quintessential music venues. If it’s your first time taking in Santana’s greatest hits, go big with the La Zona Fiesta ticket to get up-close and personal with this music legend.

Caesars Palace superstar headliner Mariah Carey has announced five additional dates in the new year for The Butterfly Returns at the Colosseum. She’s back on the Strip with concerts on Sept. 9-10, while tickets for her February performances just went on sale. Actress Jennifer Finnigan from TV’s Salvation celebrated her birthday in downtown Las Vegas with actor husband Jonathan Silverman at Andiamo Italian Steakhouse at The D. After enjoying a custommade Salvation cake, the couple was spied partying with casino owner Derek Stevens and his wife Nicole at the casino’s Longbar. Remember that chart-topping, R&B-meets-hip-hop, collaborative cover “Whatta Man” from 1993-’94? Be prepared to see it performed live when you check out I Love the’ 90s: The Vegas Show at Paris this fall. Both great girl groups who put that song at No. 3 on the Billboard charts will be among the opening acts for the new Strip production as En Vogue was recently announced to be joining Salt-N-Pepa. Also planned for the kickoff performances Oct. 12-27 at the Paris Theater are Rob Base (“It Takes Two”) and All-4-One (“I Swear”). Mat Franco celebrated the third anniversary of his show Magic Reinvented Nightly recently at The Linq, commemorating the milestone with champagne and cupcakes with his crew before the show. The upstairs theater was named for the America’s Got Talent winner last spring and he’s been performing eight shows a week there since last summer.

Yes, you can get all sorts of drinks at Margaritaville, like the Perfect margarita and the 5 O’ Clock Somewhere, a boat drink, pictured, but that’s just a start. The Volcano Nachos here are considered a masterpiece by some, with the cheese and toppings evenly distributed. For a twist on dip, try the asiago crab and artichoke dip. You might not think dessert could be in the plan, but think again! Three words: Key lime pie. –NK Flamingo, opens at 8 a.m daily. 702.733.3302

Soulful Harmony
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

Fluffy Business Gabriel Iglesias has a lot to be excited about these days. In September, he films his new Netflix special One Show Fits All. His voice-acting talents will be featured in the upcoming animated film Blazing Samurai, based on the Mel Brooks classic comedy Blazing Saddles.
16 9.9.18 LasVegasMagazine.com
The 42-year-old comic is, year after year, one of the best-selling live comedy acts in the world. No matter what, people are drawn to him. This is the man many call “Fluff y,” based on a concept that launched Iglesias into superstardom with his 2009 special, Gabriel Iglesias: I’m Not Fat… I’m Fluffy. He is still able
to harness a potential negative and turn it into a relatable positive nearly a decade later. Iglesias has found all of this success for two reasons: He’s funny and he’s likable. This is evident every time he plays to a sold-out crowd, which seems to be every time he has a show. –Jason Harris

Listen, My Children Korn, in the band’s salad days, was to nu metal what Velvet Underground was to college rock and the Sex Pistols were to punk. Korn created the nu metal template that other acts would borrow and bludgeon to death. The band triumphed in 1998, when Korn’s Follow the Leader debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s album chart. It captured the zeitgeist of late-’90s heavy music and now arguably qualifies for inclusion in the canon of classic hard rock albums. It’s no surprise that Korn pays tribute to Follow the Leader live this year in observance of the album’s 20th anniversary. What makes the shows special is there are only three, with An Evening With KORN: Follow The Leader 20th Anniversary scheduled for Las Vegas, Los Angeles and San Francisco. Only the Vegas date offers a chance to get a room that’s an elevator ride from the venue, offering a responsible alternative to driving after celebrating songs such as “Got the Life” and “Freak on a Leash” with requisite abandon. –Matt Kelemen

But sampling the whole-fish market program is absolutely mandatory. Diners can choose from seasonal seafood and select from three distinct methods of preparation.

Ever-Expanding Musical Circle Alejandro Fernández has music in his blood. The Mexican singer is the son of ranchera legend Vicente Fernández, and he made his first appearance onstage at one of his father’s concerts when he was just five years old. He may have ended that appearance in tears after forgetting the lyrics to the song he was supposed to sing, but his career certainly took off following that inauspicious start. Fernández released his first album in 1992, and since then he’s branched out into mainstream pop from traditional Mexican music and has collaborated with international stars including Rod Stewart, Placido Domingo, Christina Aguilera and Beyoncé, as well as with his father Vicente. Fernández’s live shows still balance the ranchera style with more modern pop, with Fernández switching out of his traditional charro suit as he transitions musical styles. On his
Mandalay Bay, 9 p.m. Sept. 15, $49$225 plus tax and fee. 800.745.3000 Ticketmaster
latest album, last year’s Rompiendo Fronteras, Fernández bridges those styles, with ranchera, pop and reggaeton all mixing together. All Music called it “the Mexican superstar’s most radical album,” demonstrating Fernández’s
commitment to pushing his music forward. To celebrate Mexican Independence Day in Las Vegas, there’s no better choice than a Mexican icon who’s committed to exploring his musical independence. –Josh Bell
These Eyes are Laughing Tape Face doesn’t need much to entertain. The silent prop comic’s bag of tricks includes tape measures, toilet paper, a toilet seat, a plunger, balloons, oven mitts, a Rubik’s Cube and, of course, tape. Tape covers his mouth so he can’t speak, but he needs help. Using his expressive eyes and a flashlight, he dashes into the audience to find cohorts who will assist him with a succession of strange tasks and challenges that come from a very childlike imagination. While Tape Face’s intent is creating visual jokes with wait-for-it reveals, his creator Sam
Wills is intentionally bringing fringe festival entertainment to the Strip—and making it work. It’s one thing to play to fringe festival audiences that expect the unexpected, but performing a participatory act for Vegas visitors with diverse entertainment options is riskier. Though, if a packed house at a show earlier this summer is any indication, Tape Face has no shortage of volunteers to join him onstage. Anything goes from there, in a PG-13 way. –Matt Kelemen Harrah’s, 7 p.m. Tues.-Sun., starting at $63 plus tax and fee. 702.777.2782
Irish Nachos We love us a good nacho, and these are good nachos. At Rock & Reilly’s, the Stripside pub in the Hawaiian Marketplace, you can indulge your affinity for cheesy things, too. The Irish Nachos here are constructed of a mound of crisp, thin-cut kettlestyle potato chips, with Irish cheddar cheese, corn salsa and scallions liberally covering the chips. Go ahead and order a Guinness stout or the vaunted Smithwick’s ale, and your afternoon will be looking better and better.

SPOTLIGHT hospital and sit by your bed. We’re gonna let you know, hey, you have a sprained or broken ankle and we’re going to do an X-ray and it’s going to take about 45 minutes. In that time, we’re going to send your girlfriends across the street to Topgolf, here’s our corporate card, go play, eat, on us. We’re going to take care of her and by the time you guys have had a couple munchies and hit a few rounds of golf, she’s gonna be ready to go. We’ve already called the concierge at your hotel to make sure that your evening plans, your dinner and show, weren’t canceled, and we’ve got the shuttle on the way to pick you up. That’s our model; and no one has heard of that before. What medical services will you be offering? Anything you can get in a big hospital. There are certain things we won’t do: open-heart surgery, we won’t do brain surgery, there are already hospitals in the area that specialize in that. But for those that come into our center with those issues, we’ll stabilize them and transport them directly to the hands of the specialists that will take care of them. Even that transfer process is going to be white-glove service.

Along with a fellow doctor and other partners, he opened Texas’ first freestanding emergency room. Now they’ve brought that same experience to the Las Vegas Strip, but Vegassized: Elite Medical Center. Las Vegas Magazine’s Kiko Miyasato sat down with McLaughlin to learn more.

Absolutely. We knew that as visitors ourselves, there’s just nothing nearby (the Strip). The urgent cares have limited hours. The hospitals are 20 minutes away and the staff is overwhelmed. Again, necessity created and piqued our entrepreneurial spirit. When the piece of property came along, we knew this was our chance. Tell me about the hospitality side. Here’s a for instance: if you sprain your ankle and you’re with your girlfriends. They’re gonna come with, they’re going to come with you to the
What about the cost of using your facilities? We will work with people of every financial situation. We do work with commercial insurance only. We will have prompt-pay cash rates for people that don’t have insurance or choose not to use insurance for whatever reason. But we will work with everyone that comes in. We will not be set up with Medicare and Medicaid right away; we’re not registered federally with that. But we will not turn anyone away. There’s not a single patient that we won’t work with—they just need to let us know their financial situation and we’ll always work it out to their satisfaction. What types of patients or illnesses or emergencies are you expecting to treat? We do expect we’ll do more than a typical share of overindulgence-type things. We will probably treat, on weekends and evenings, a lot of people that are throwing up or have gastrointestinal issues. We’ll probably treat trips and falls, or people that have hit their heads and have concussions. But we will also treat the chronic medical conditions that have acute issues. Someone with COPD that has an exacerbation, we’ll take care of that, too. 150 E. Harmon Ave., open 24 hours daily. 702.546.0911

The Language of Laughter Comedy might have saved Felipe Esparza’s life. The winner of the 2010 season of Last Comic Standing was in rehab when he found the resolve to pursue his lifelong ambition of becoming a stand-up comic, and having that focus helped him turn his life around. Since then, he’s made that dream a reality, from touring the country to making major TV appearances. His first HBO special, Translate This, premiered last year, and he’s developing a comedic travel series that will explore areas along the U.S.-Mexico border. That area means a lot to Esparza, who was
born in Mexico and grew up in L.A., and who has performed regularly on Spanishlanguage TV. In 2010, he starred in the movie I’m Not Like That No More, which was inspired by his comedy about his extended Mexican-American family, and co-starred his mentor Paul Rodriguez as his father. Esparza’s comedy is all about bridging gaps, talking openly about his troubled early days and the struggles of his immigrant family in a way that connects to audiences from all backgrounds. Comedy might have saved his life, and he’s made the most of that opportunity. –Josh Bell

No one can ever replace Freddie Mercury, the late frontman of legendary rock band Queen who died in 1991, and no one tries, instead keeping the vocalist’s memory alive. The band’s current incarnation. Queen + Adam Lambert, began with a performance on American Idol in 2009, and the chemistry was undeniable from the start. Like Mercury, Lambert has a powerful, resonant voice and a mesmerizing and charismatic stage presence. After further one-off performances together, the group made things official with its first tour in 2012.

Success His Way For pretty much any musical artist, achieving true global success means singing songs in English, no matter where they come from or what their native tongue might be. Artists from Latin America have been following this path for decades in order to reach a wider audience. But the artist considered the most successful in the history of Latin American music has achieved that feat by performing only in Spanish. Luis Miguel has sold more than 100 million albums worldwide, has won multiple Grammys and Latin
Grammys, and sells out concerts around the world, including in Las Vegas. He began his career with his 1982 debut album El Sol, and by 14 he had already won his first Grammy (for “Me Gustas Tal Como Eres,” a duet with Sheena Easton). He’s released 20-plus albums in a range of genres since, and his latest is last year’s ¡México Por Siempre!, which debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard Latin Albums chart. For nearly 40 years, Miguel has been at the top of the Latin music world, and he’s done it all on his own terms. –Josh Bell

Bre Khounphinith
Making people look good is her passion Flawless skin. Shimmering eyes. Gentle smiles that say, “I know I look good.” That’s what you’ll find on Bre Khounphinith’s Instagram feed—face after face of gorgeous, confident women whose grins come courtesy of the makeup artist behind Beauty By Bre. Among those faces you’ll find Khounphinith herself, although the California native and Las Vegas resident would rather stay behind the camera. “I don’t like putting up pictures of myself, but people like that, so I do,” she says. “I hate doing makeup on myself. It just takes too much time. If I could go out bare every day, I would.” Khounphinith never meant to become a makeup artist at all. She started out as a hairstylist. In cosmetology school, she says, they only did one day of makeup application, “and it was ’80s makeup—blue eyeshadow and pink blush.” Today she describes her look as “clean, natural glam,” and it’s won her high-end clients, brides and repeat gigs at the BET and Soul Train Awards. “Everyone that sits in my chair is a celebrity. I treat everyone the same way,” Khounphinith says. The result is women who love the way they look when they finally get a glimpse of the finished product. “I’ve had them cry. I’ve had them get up and scream and run back and forth in a room. If I had a hard day, that reaction just gives me energy and pushes me to go on.” Khounphinith is also driven by the knowledge that she’s lucky to be here at all. Seven years ago, a few months after giving birth to her son, she went into cardiac arrest. “I passed away right there going up the stairs,” she says. “I was gone for 10 minutes. I feel like I got a second chance at life, and I’m going to live it to the fullest.” For now, that means continuing to build Beauty By Bre through Instagram and word of mouth, promoting her lip brand, Lip Legend, and working toward opening a makeup bar that would gussy up visitors for nights on the town. “I want to start here in Vegas, and then I would love to push it to L.A. and Miami,” Khounphinith says. –Sarah Feldberg

Short rib bruschetta
VooDoo Steakhouse brings new dishes to a stunning locale By JASON HARRIS Photos by PETER HARASTY

Las Vegas restaurants become institutions of the city for different reasons. There are the rooms revered for their old-school tableside service. There are diners that are beloved because of their vintage feel. And then there is VooDoo Steakhouse, where the view from the room and the adjoining patio is nearly as much an attraction as the food. Sitting 50 floors above the Las Vegas Strip, this Rio mainstay is known for quality cuisine and stunning, postcardworthy views.
But the views of the Strip aren't the only thing that stun the eyes at this top-floor eatery. Order your party a Witch Doctor from the cocktail menu—it’s big enough for two, or maybe four people—and behold! A giant scorpion bowl filled with a colorful liquid blend smokes from the top of the glassware, thanks to the magic of dry ice, as it is presented tableside. As for what you are actually sipping, it’s a mix of rum, rum and more rum. Cruzan pineapple rum plus coconut rum plus raspberry rum plus 151 equals

The menu here recently changed, incorporating a range of fresh new items while delivering the classics that fans of VooDoo expect. Start with short rib bruschetta, on hearty rye batard with truffle ricotta. Classic Caesar salad hits the spot with crisp lettuce, tangy ParmesanDijon dressing and crunchy buttered croutons; the beet salad adds organic honey, goat cheese, watercress and aged balsamic. Lobster bisque is rich, a smooth broth along with chunks of Maine lobster and crème fraiche to mellow it out if it gets too heavy. Let’s get to the meat of the conversation— who doesn’t love a good pun, or a bad one. Steaks include 21-day wet-aged choice, prime, grass fed, and certified Angus beef, as well as 28-day dry-aged Omaha farmed beef. A juicy, 14-ounce

If you crave a little seafood with your meat, there are plenty of options, like the VooDoo Ménage à Trois, with tiger prawns, a 6-ounce lobster tail and a lovely little 6-ounce filet. Mac and cheese gets that one-percenter treatment by combining aged cheddar cheese
with truffle cream sauce—an upscale take on the childhood favorite made even better by the burnt top layer. The lobster mac and cheese takes it a step further, with lobster essence imbuing the dish with a decadent richness. And the classic side of whipped potatoes gets even better, with crème fraiche and a sprinkling of chives.

Jason Jerge
It’s full steam ahead for director of beverage Some people can only handle one career. Jason Jerge had the smarts and drive to have two. A graduate of the University of Southern California, Jerge stayed in L.A., and began a career as a talent agent, working with athletes and actors while also working in the food and beverage industry as both a bartender and manager. After many years of doing both, “It was a choice between two careers,” said the Memphis, Tenn., native. “… I kind of had a Jerry Maguire moment where you look around and think about where you want to be in 10 years. I decided to go all-in in the food and beverage industry.” So, in 2014, he moved to Las Vegas and landed at Stratosphere, where he worked his way up the ladder from beverage supervisor to
34 9.9.18 LasVegasMagazine.com
pool manager and, last year, was promoted to beverage director. “I knew Vegas offered a lot of opportunity,” he said. “It was a goal to succeed here.” And success Jerge has found. He helps oversee the beverage programs at many of the property’s bars, including Level 107 SkyLounge. “It’s an exciting time—we’ve beefed up our selection,” Jerge said. “Our specialty and signature cocktails have more garnishes, more modern ingredients and twists, variations on classics. We’re modernizing the Stratosphere.” Jerge couldn’t be more amped for the future: “I still have that drive. I am a firm believer that I never want to fail. There’s that fire in me. I do whatever it takes.” –Kiko Miyasato
Jerge and Stratosphere’s corporate beverage team recently introduced 15 new specialty cocktails at 107 SkyLounge. “I like the creative aspect of beverages,” he said. “It makes you feel good when you create something, and people enjoy it.” One of the new cocktails that has people buzzing is the Bibiana, which in Latin means “full of life.” The cocktail is mixed with Don Julio Añejo tequila, Pama Pomegranate liqueur, agave nectar, lime juice and hellfire bitters. “The drink definitely is full of life and has a nice smoky tone, yet is refreshing with the pomegranate— and has a spicy kick at the end,” he said. –KM

Enrique Iglesias brings years of fan favorites to Vegas By MATT KELEMEN
42 9.9.18 LasVegasMagazine.com

Enrique Iglesias took a mere five months off from touring after completing a string of co-headlining dates with Pitbull last November, which followed a 2 1/2-year tour in support of his 2014 album Sex and Love. The Sex and Love Tour ended last Mexican Independence Day Weekend at the Colosseum inside Caesars Palace, which is where once again Iglesias will spend the holiday performing double dates during his current All the Hits Live Tour. Iglesias trimmed away a few songs from his live set for the current trek, and added recent single releases such as “El Perdón,” “Súbeme la Radio,” and “El Baño” to the hit list. He also added 2016’s “Duele el Corazón,” his first release after he signed a new deal with Sony Music. Iglesias had long been with Universal, but Sex and Love was his final album with them. Sex and Love was preceded by two years’ worth of singles and reached No. 8 on Billboard’s pop albums chart, two notches higher than 2010’s Euphoria peaked at but not quite the showing that No. 2 album Escape made in 2001. Iglesias surely has his mind on reaching No. 1 on his next effort with the formidable backing of Sony behind him, but the musical landscape is a far different one than he entered in 1995 when Iglesias released his debut self-titled album. Back then Iglesias was reluctant to be perceived as trading on his famous father Julio’s surname. His concerns took a back seat to the focus his burgeoning career required once Enrique Iglesias reached No. 1 on the Latin albums chart. His second album, Vivir, did the same, and hit No. 33 on Billboard’s pop album
Photo by Credit
chart. Iglesias had six more No. 1 Latin albums, most recently with Sex and Love. He solidified his status as a superstar with staying power in 2001, however, when he released Escape. The album became an international blockbuster, with the success of the song “Hero” making Iglesias a household name the world over. To date, Iglesias has had 27 No. 1s on the Hot Latin Songs chart, most recently in 2015 with his Nicky Jam collaboration “El Perdón.” Sex and Love single “Bailando,” featuring Gente De Zona and Descemer Bueno, currently holds the record for most weeks at the Hot Latin Songs summit and paved the way for future reggaeton-pop hybrid hits. Iglesias’ latest single, “I Don’t Dance,” an English-language joint venture with Norway’s DJ Matoma and featuring Sean Paul, may hint at a club-centric direction Iglesias’ first album for Sony could take. Las Vegas is the last stop before Iglesias takes All the Hits Live back to Europe, where he kicked off the tour in March. Then, after being home for the holidays with partner Anna Kournikova and their infant twins, it’s back to work in the studios and the beginning of the next chapter. Iglesias’ domestic life has surely altered his outlook on life and love, but the ambition that has fueled his career so far is unlikely to have diminished. Ambition is one trait he shares with his father that he’s never been reluctant to rely on.

NASCAR Playoffs Party highlights Downtown Shenanigans at Fremont Street Experience By Matt Kelemen Any visitor to Downtown Las Vegas will attest to the fact that there is no shortage of high-spirited behavior afoot. Fremont Street Experience plans to amplify the high spirits during celebrations surrounding the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series Playoffs with Downtown Shenanigans, a corresponding party observing the halfway mark to St. Patrick’s Day that features flash mobs, dancers and 20 musical acts on Fremont Street Experience’s three stages. The weekend of free concerts culminates with country star Cole Swindell performing at the inaugural NASCAR Cup Series Playoffs Party on Saturday night, with racing personalities on hand to represent the NASCAR brand as well. Activities leading up to Sunday’s South Point 400 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway really kick off Thursday after 2 p.m. with Burnout Boulevard, when 16 of NASCAR’s best competitors drive their racecars north on the Strip, starting from Planet Hollywood Resort. Fans will be able to get a streetlevel view of rising stars such as Kyle Larson, Chase Elliott, Ryan Blaney, Austin Dillon and Erik Jones in a procession that also features veterans Kurt and Kyle Busch, seven-time champion Jimmie Johnson and No. 1-ranked Kevin Harvick. They’ll stop north of the Spring Mountain Road intersection, where Fashion Show, Wynn Las Vegas, the Palazzo and Treasure Island are located, to demonstrate the victory burnouts one of them hopes to duplicate after the final lap. Harvick and No. 4-ranked Clint Bowyer will then head to the Speedway to sign autographs before NASCAR’s

next-generation dirt track race, the Star Nursery 100, while the 16 cars roll on to Fremont Street Experience, where they can be seen up close on Friday and Saturday. Irish music makers such as Celtic Rockers, Darby O’Gill, Brick Top Blaggers, Luck of the Spandex, The Angry Brians and Finnegan’s Wake will create the soundtrack for Downtown Shenanigans beginning Friday evening. The scene will be green, but whether leprechaun luck extends to the turn of a card or roll of the dice likely depends on how much Irish there is in you. All ears will be listening for Cole Swindell, pictured, on Saturday night when the 2015 American Country Music New Artist of the Year headlines the NASCAR Playoffs Party. Blaney and Jones will be among the NASCAR personalities on hand for “conversations” before the concert, during which Swindell will play a mix of hits and new material. Swindell, who made his mark as a songwriter well before 2015, released his latest album All of It last month and saw it debut at No. 7 on Billboard’s Top 200 chart, becoming his third album to break the pop Top Ten. Swindell played the entire album during his most latest tour, following the new songs up with fan favorites like “Chillin’ It,” “Ain’t Worth the Whiskey” and “This Is How We Roll,” a collaboration with Luke Bryan that was a hit for Florida Georgia Line. Expect a similar set Saturday night before it’s back to the Celtic sounds of Downtown Shenanigans, and more high-spirited behavior as can only be experienced on Las Vegas’ legendary Fremont Street.

Any mention of the Bee Gees brings to mind the heady days of disco for many, and a production titled The Australian Bee Gees Show: A Tribute to the Bee Gees (Excalibur, 702.597.7600) is sure to draw people who welcome an onset of night fever and will want to get up and dance. As it turned out, it had little trouble filling up a showroom at the Excalibur when Michael Clift and company
brought it to Las Vegas in February 2011. Since then, the show has delivered more than 1,700 unforgettable performances. Of course, the Bee Gees were way more than a disco baby; the band had been around for two decades by then, and the Australian Bee Gees makes sure that period is fully addressed. After kicking things off with “Nights on Broadway” and “More Than a Woman,” the

The Outlaws’ 1980 interpretation of Stan Jones’ “(Ghost) Riders in the Sky: A Cowboy Legend” is opulent and grand and everything that is excessive about Southern rock and the 1980s. It takes some real fortitude to figure out a way to mash up an old-school TV-style western tune with the indulgent double lead guitar attack that is a staple of Southern rock, but “Yippee-yay-ay, yippee-yay-oh,” The Outlaws did it. The Outlaws serve up plenty of that Southern-fried crunch in their song construction, as they do in many songs performed over the course of a 50-year career, but they also add elements of progressive rock to their extended solos—not often heard in Southern rock. Then again, they have to break the rules. They are The Outlaws. –Jason Harris
DRINK
For a little taste of England, head to the Cornish Pasty Co. in the Arts District. The hip joint features an open kitchen, dark woods, and an intimate bar—and some seriously rocking pies. There’s an enormous variety, from a traditional meat pasty stuffed with meat, cheese, onion and rutabaga to a veggie cottage pie with Quorn ground beef (a mycoprotein), peas, carrots, mashed potatoes and onions. The Cornish Pasty Co. also makes from two to four vegan options a day. You’re not limited to traditional English fare, though. The pasty list goes on and on: Mexican, Reuben, lamb and mint, spicy asiago chicken, lamb vindaloo, Greek, eggplant Parmesan and a boatload more. And for dessert? What about sticky toffee pudding or a peanut butter and jelly pasty? Wash it all down with a craft beer and you’re ready to roll. –Nina King 10 E. Charleston Blvd., 11 a.m.-midnight Sun.-Wed., 11 a.m.-2 a.m. Thurs.Sat. 702.862.4538
Hop to It!
If discovering that next great craft beer is your passion, head straight to the 9th Annual Beer Fest at Golden Nugget.

You’ll also be able to enjoy beerinspired food and live entertainment. Happy discovering! –Ken Miller Golden Nugget, 7 p.m. Sept. 15, $64$84, 21+. 866.946.5336

FUN FACTS Old casinos weren’t just funded by the mob—Wall Street banks, the Mormon church and Princeton University Endowment all contributed. Talk about humble beginnings: Las Vegas, when founded as a city in 1905, amounted to 110 total acres.
