on the scene WITH BROCK RADKE
and from our amazing producer, it’s developed a little every single night until it became sexy and hilarious. It’s like three equal parts now and none of them can exist without the others. There’s so much audience participation. Does that make the show different every night? Chris: For sure. There’s so much participation and it’s not all women. I say this with all due respect to shows in Vegas, but there are a lot of shows where performers get caught in that loop because they’re doing six nights a week for years. After watching magic shows here in the last few weeks, I realized something we do that other shows don’t is we don’t just have volunteers onstage to help with a trick—they get power in the show. That’s what makes it fun. They get handed this power during the show and it literally changes the trajectory every night and keeps us on our toes.
The Naked Magicians Australian magicians and comedians Christopher Wayne, right, and Mike Tyler performed for the first time together as the Naked Magicians on Valentine’s Day, Feb. 14, 2014, in Brisbane. Of course, it was Feb. 13 in the United States, and five years later to the day the duo opened their first Las Vegas residency at Brad Garrett’s Comedy Club at MGM Grand Wednesday through Monday at 10 p.m. They aren’t just funny or magical or sexy. Their show is the perfect balance of each element.
What made this the right time? Mike: A room would come open but we’d have six or nine months of touring booked. This year, we made the decision to not book everything so we could do this if it came up. It’s totally the perfect room, a nice, intimate theater to start with. Everything is falling into place perfectly.
one had ever made a naughty magic show like this. And we’ve been doing it going on five years and there were lots of offers from Vegas. We decided if we’re going to do this, we want it to be the right room, the right time.
What are your thoughts on that first show five years ago? Mike: It wasn’t sexy. It was kind of funny. Chris: Through listening to our audience every night and getting feedback from industry greats
Duo bares all the tricks and jokes
Las Vegas is a great fit for you. Mike: A great fit, with Aussies doing magic and comedy and getting naked? (Laughs.) Chris: When we had the idea, the first thing was, someone’s done this. We got to Googling and no
12 2.24.19 LasVegasMagazine.com
How does this theater compare to the touring venues? Mike: Doing a show in the same city six nights a week, this is going to be the perfect size for us here, nice and intimate. Two thousand people is a lot of fun, but things can get lost a bit. We’ve tried filming our show but it doesn’t really translate because you need to be there to experience it, so the atmosphere at the Brad Garrett Comedy Club is going to be perfect for a couple Aussies to get naked in and make people laugh. Chris: The first thing I asked about is, “Can I do a comedy set?” I want to be on that stage. It’s all about the energy and it’s not just us giving, it’s that back and forth.

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.
Fashion statement The Hollywood Reporter recently published an extensive conversation with Gwen Stefani looking back on her long career in fashion. It’s been 15 years since the pop starlet launched her L.A.M.B. brand and infused her colorful, creative perspective into runway shows and popular apparel. “I look back and realize that by its nature, fashion is always progressing,” she said. “You can’t hold it
one place or stand still. I learned to be very open because you’re always evolving; that’s what fashion is, too. Another collection, another season. It doesn’t get old.” The same approach could be applied to Stefani’s musical history, and she gets to tell that story at Zappos Theater when she returns to her Just A Girl residency at Planet Hollywood Feb. 27 and March 1-16.
All The Vegas Jennifer Romas “I feel like our show is different and that doesn’t make it better or worse necessarily, but it’s different. I’m not the producer or choreographer that gets to set it and make the decisions and then walk away from it, go home and have a glass of wine. I live in what I create. It’s an extension of any producer but it’s really an extension of me, every single night. And my team has to be on. I want to be proud of what I’ve created and proud to step into what I created.” Listen to the latest episode of the All The Vegas podcast with Sexxy star and producer Jennifer Romas at allthevegas.com.

Great news for classic rock fans: Aerosmith has doubled down on its Deuces Are Wild residency at Park Theater, which opens April 6. After announcing 18 shows in spring and summer, the Boston band and Live Nation recently started selling tickets for 17 new concerts in September, October, November and December. Ariel Winter is all grown up. The actress you knew as middle child Alex on Modern Family celebrated her 21st birthday at Drai’s Nightclub with a group of 70 friends and family members as rapper Gucci Mane kicked off his 2019 residency. A new big top has been raised. Earlier this month, a dynamic 3,800-square-foot tent was erected at Excalibur for international favorite Fuerza Bruta. But this is no circus. The uniquely immersive theatrical production opens March 7. Caesars Palace resident star Reba McEntire returns as host and executive producer of the 54th Academy of Country Music Awards, broadcast live around the world on April 7 from MGM Grand Garden Arena. A star-studded lineup will honor Lionel Richie at the 23rd annual Power of Love Gala at MGM Grand Garden Arena. Among those paying tribute to Richie at the March 16 event are singer/songwriter Ne-Yo, R&B star Miguel, Grammy-nominated songstress Leona Lewis, New York Yankee great and jazz guitarist Bernie Williams, Empire actor Jussie Smollett and musical director Greg Phillinganes.

Passing the Baton
Singer has inspired a new wave of resident performers When Celine Dion performs the final show of her second residency at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace on June 8, it will mark the end of an era in Las Vegas entertainment. Dion debuted as a Strip headliner more than 15 years ago when, even though its nightlife was booming, Las Vegas was widely considered the place where entertainers went to become nostalgia acts, or the last career chapter before retirement. Dion almost single-handedly changed that perception, opening floodgates that Bette Midler, Elton John, Cher and Rod Stewart would pass through, among many others. She also demonstrated the benefits of staying put in one venue for an extended engagement as opposed to the rigors of tour travel, which
performers from Gwen Stefani to Van Morrison have now picked up on. Mariah Carey and Jennifer Lopez breathed new life into their careers through headliner productions, and no one would accuse Lady Gaga, whose Enigma residency at Park MGM debuted Dec. 28, of being close to retirement. Without Dion taking a bold risk and infusing credibility into having Vegas headliner status, things may have turned out vastly different. Dion may have symbolically given her endorsement to Lady Gaga as the next grand diva of Las Vegas when she attended Gaga’s show recently after performing the first weekend of the final run of Céline, and conspicuously danced her ass off like the ultimate superfan. Gaga reciprocated
with a shout-out to the 50-year-old Canadian chanteuse. She then dedicated “You and I” to Dion, who jammed on air guitar during the song before demonstrating her mastery of the choreography to “Bad Romance.” Dion’s unbridled enthusiasm for the next generation is characteristic of her authentic presence, whether onstage or in interviews. She was raised to be a star performer and acts like it, but there’s nothing disingenuous or superficial about her. She is what she is, an embodiment of how optimism and perseverance pays off in the end, and how being yourself in the face of a cynical entertainment press will only increase the devotion of fans. Celine Dion has earned her place in Las Vegas history. –Matt Kelemen

Dynamic Duo Donny and Marie Osmond love what they do. They’ve said it many times before when asked about the secret of their longevity, how they approach their show with as much enthusiasm as they did as teenage superstars, and how they’ve managed to turn a six-week engagement in 2008 into a decadelong run.
16 2.24.19 LasVegasMagazine.com
Their residency is structured not all that differently from their weekly television broadcast from 1976 to 1979. Fans may find themselves transported back to a time when Donny and Marie were peaking as youthful entertainers, but their subsequent solo careers also inspire.
You’ll get Marie’s “Paper Roses” and a taste of her operatic chops. You’ll get Donny’s “Soldier of Love” and the saucy dance moves he demonstrated on Dancing with the Stars. You’ll also get a live band, biographical video footage, and the duo’s trademark all-in-fun bickering. –Matt Kelemen

Indie rocker Kurt Vile has built a following the oldfashioned way, steadily releasing music to growing critical acclaim and positive word of mouth, and scoring a couple of radio hits (“Pretty Pimpin” and “Loading Zones”) more than a decade into his career. Vile started out as both a solo artist and as the guitarist for indie rock band The War on Drugs, led by Vile’s friend and collaborator Adam Granduciel. As both acts began to take off, Vile left The War on Drugs to focus on his own work. Vile’s solo albums have been wowing critics since 2008 debut Constant Hitmaker, and NME named 2011’s Smoke Ring for My Halo one of the 500 greatest albums of all time. Vile’s most recent album is last year’s Bottle It In, which features guest stars including Kim Gordon, Cass McCombs and Mary Lattimore. With both a concise, radio-friendly single (“Loading Zones”) and multiple songs pushing the 10-minute mark, it’s a perfect example of Vile’s hardworking aesthetic, pushing forward one song and one album at a time. –Josh Bell

Flying High In an era when rock bands have become increasingly marginalized among over-the-top pop performers, British alt-rockers Muse continue setting the standard for modern arenarock spectacle. The band’s heady, multilayered concept albums lend themselves to bombastic live productions, and recent album Simulation Theory is no exception. The band’s eighth album pays tribute to 1980s pop culture and deals with the idea of reality as an elaborate simulation. After moving in a darker rock direction on previous releases, Muse shifted gears to a more synth-heavy, electronic sound for Simulation Theory, working with pop producers like Shellback and Mike Elizondo in addition to longtime collaborator Rich Costey. All Music called the album “purely Muse at heart, successfully merging electronic-pop songcraft with their typically urgent, stadium rock foundation.” “We’re going to come up with something that no one’s ever seen before,” the band said in the announcement for the Simulation Theory Tour, and from a group whose concerts

have previously incorporated flying drones and screens that envelop the band members, that’s a lofty promise. There’s no doubt that Muse will deliver, though, presenting their elaborate,

Once the lights go up on “X” Burlesque, you barely have time to take a breath, so tireless and relentless are the performers who tackle every number with passion and confidence. It’s a topless show, yes, but “X” Burlesque is no mere exercise in titillation. These women have serious athletic skills, making jaws drop all over the room with some of their displays of balance and power. Each of the numbers in “X” Burlesque has its own seductive allure, from the neon costumes and music used during Bruno Mars’ “Uptown
Funk” to the sensual dancing and playful, knowing winks you’ll find in Touch and Go’s “Would You?” There’s also plenty of humor. Some lucky audience member gets pulled onstage during the “Mile High Club” segment scored to Lenny Kravitz’s “Fly Away,” and a comedian provides some truly hilarious insights midway through the production. “X” Burlesque has been on the Strip for a decade and a half, and it’s not hard to see why. –Ken Miller
Truffle Fried Chicken One of the hottest new spots to dine in Las Vegas is Sara’s, an intimate supper club located in a secret room within Mabel’s BBQ at the Palms. Adding to the exclusivity of the experience is chef Michael Symon’s menu, simply chock-full of mouth-watering delights. It’s almost impossible to suggest a starting point, but you really can’t go wrong with the truffle fried chicken, served with sage, fresh black truffle shavings, a drizzle of honey and a sprinkling of Parmesan.

Lifting Her Voice Sarah Brightman, the beautiful English soprano who was the original Christine in Broadway’s The Phantom of the Opera, is also a musician, songwriter, actress and dancer who has recorded music from numerous genres—disco solos, Broadway classics and inspirational melodies. Those attending Brightman’s HYMN concert at The Smith Center will be treated to a variety of her most popular songs along with selections from the album from which the concert is titled. Brightman recorded the album in 2018 and has said she wanted it to be “uplifting.” This, her 15th album, reached
No. 1 on Billboard’s classical and classical crossover charts. This comes as no surprise since she is one of the best-selling sopranos in the world and has garnered triple digit gold and platinum awards internationally. She also teamed with Andrew Bocelli for the awesome duet “Time To Say Goodbye,” which sold 12 million copies worldwide. In addition, Brightman has sung in 11 different languages as well as English. Making the tour even better, French tenor Vincent Niclo and Romanian countertenor Narcis have joined Brightman for the show. –Penny Levin

In the Mac King Comedy Magic Show, illusionist Mac King is nearly as practiced at the art of innuendo that goes over adolescent heads as he is at sleight-of-hand. “Because it’s in the afternoon, the misconception, I think, is that it’s a kids’ show. It’s a show designed for adults, that kids like.” King expertly walks the line of risqué humor without crossing it, keeping all ages laughing. It might be the goldfish he pulls from his mouth that helps create the impression that his magic is kid-friendly. It was honing his craft that led to his iconoclastic approach to magic, and he tailored his material with an eye on the future. “While I really love filthy, dirty, comedy, I didn’t want to put anything in my show that I couldn’t do on TV, in the hopes that someday it would be on TV,” King laughed. –Matt Kelemen Harrah’s, 1 & 3 p.m. Tues.-Sat., $37.95-$47.95 plus tax and fee. 702.777.2782

Intriguing World
Zip Along Fremont Street has been closed to vehicles from Las Vegas Boulevard to Main Street for more than 20 years, but for more than four years it’s been possible to travel from Neonopolis to the Four Queens by zipline. The first zipline attraction was meant to be temporary, but proved so popular that it eventually led to the construction of SlotZilla, a permanent, steel-framed structure designed to resemble a slot machine that delivers two distinct, thrilling rider experiences.
The zipline’s takeoff platform is 74 feet above the ground and the zoomline launch pad rises 40 feet higher to enable guests to hurtle horizontally for 1,750 feet. The lower level places the rider in an upright, seated position that can rotate, but the upper level is a head-first experience that essentially turns the guest into a guided human missile cruising only a few feet below the famous Viva Vision canopy. Pretending you’re Superman? Now that’s a rush! –Matt Kelemen
Italian Elevated Vetri Cucina is so good it’s a wonder how it took so long to get to Las Vegas. But the restaurant arrived at the perfect time, fitting in nicely with the Palms’ chic renovation and further elevating the property’s culinary scene. The menu changes relatively often, but a recent visit included the tortellini pie, a mixture of tortellini, meatballs, and a thick Bolognese and béchamel sauce pocketed inside of a golden pastry crust. And you'll want to try pasta selections such as almond tortellini, chestnut fettuccine or mafaldini, a ribbon-like noodle served with wild duck ragu and olives. –Las Vegas Magazine Staff Palms, opens at 5:30 p.m. daily. 702.944.5900

They’ve Got It All
With so many genres (and sub-genres), most musical artists are limited in how wide they can cast their net. One way to overcome this obstacle? Go the route of The Marshall Tucker Band by writing and recording songs that defy genre labels. Formed in Spartanburg, S.C., in 1973, The Marshall Tucker Band was certainly at the forefront of the Southern rock revolution that launched in the early 1970s, thanks to such hits as “Heard It in a Love Song” and “Can’t You See.” But by incorporating elements of rock, country, jazz, blues and even gospel into their 22 studio albums, the band has avoided getting pigeonholed. The result? They have a fan base that’s as broad as it is loyal—so loyal, in fact, that after more than 45 years and numerous lineup changes, The Marshall Tucker Band continues to perform 130-plus live shows annually. –Matt Jacob

Daytime poolside party heats up the season A few years ago, John Kahle was inspired by the garage and rooftop parties happening all around Paris. “I thought it would be so cool to have parties in Vegas parking garages,” says Kahle, partner of Paris- and Las Vegas-based Hunt 5 Group. “There’s these massive top floors that are hardly ever parked on, so I’ll start talking to casino contacts about parties in parking garages.” Although the idea sparked interest, it turned out to be too hard to execute. But Hunt 5 Group recently partnered with Westgate Las Vegas, and together they’ve created a Vegas version of the Paris rooftop parties—The Sunset Club. The winter party kicks off at 1 p.m. Thursday through Saturday outdoors on Westgate’s pool deck. While there’s no swimming allowed
26 2.24.19 LasVegasMagazine.com
because of the cold temps—several heaters are placed strategically throughout—guests are welcome to take a dip in the Jacuzzi. “It’s the only outdoor winter dayclub in Las Vegas,” Kahle says. “There’s that long stretch of time before dinner, so this is something that people can go to and have some fun.” Guests are treated to a live set by resident DJ Guinness, who spin popular ’80s and ’90s music. “It’s the music where when you walk in, you’ll be singing along to Janet Jackson or bopping around to Wham!” Kahle says. “There might be special appearances by the Westgate performers, and maybe some karaoke, too.” Inside the Jack Daniel’s Cabana, the menu includes classic cocktails from Paris and cocktails
made using French brands. Some of the options include Carte Noire coffee, Crémant sparkling wine, Kronenbourg beer paired with Jack Daniels and the Chocolat Poulain. “Poulain is like a French Nestle’s Quik,” Kahle says. “I think we’re the only resort that serves it. We make like a hot chocolate out of it, throw in some schnapps or Häagen-Dazs vanilla ice cream or heavy whipped cream on top—it is so delicious.” The Sunset Club also has multiple bars and conversation pits, but Kahle is pretty certain most crowds just feel like dancing and letting loose. “It’s a party that’s inclusive,” he says. “Everyone feels like a VIP, everyone is a VIP. … Have a drink, have fun, dance, sing—all during the day.” –Kiko Miyasato

Heirloom tomatoes with burrata
Jeannie’s ropes in James Beard winner’s expertise By JASON harris
Growing up in New Jersey, the mall capital of the world and proud of it, one becomes something of an expert on the dining options in these shopping centers. There are mediocre food courts, countless Mexican and Italian restaurants,
28 2.24.19 LasVegasMagazine.com
and random pretzel stands that are at least somewhat satisfying. Jeannie’s, the new cafe in Nordstrom in Fashion Show, has destroyed the idea that one cannot have excellent food in a mall. To be fair, Fashion Show already
has some higher-end places that exceed traditional mall standards, but Jeannie’s actually feels like it fits in the complex and blows everything in its sight away. The open-spaced eatery, located in an upstairs corner, feels
nosh cheers both hidden and welcoming. Nordstrom, based in Seattle, was wise to sign up James Beard Awardwinning Seattle chef Tom Douglas to oversee the menu. Douglas’ focus on fresh ingredients shines through in every dish. What diners get here are familiar items with a few twists, and just about everything tastes like there is some secret farm on top of the mall where Jeannie’s is sourcing its products directly. Toasties are foccacia bread sandwiches inspired by Douglas’ expeditions to Scotland. Beecher’s Flagship cheddar lets the tangy cheese shine with each bite. The eggplant Parmesan, featuring a light, panko-coated eggplant, is as good a version of the Italian sandwich as any in the city. One would be wise to go the combo route with these sammies and revel in the goodness of the soups that come with this option. Vegetable minestrone features a heavenly Parmesan broth, and roma tomato basil is the perfect dipping component for the aforementioned grilled cheese. Pick any appetizer—or all of them. They are that good. Roasted baby beets are gussied up with

citrus, pistachios and mint, three welcome flavors to a dish that could easily be mundane. Lovely heirloom tomatoes with burrata might as well transport you to an Italian villa. And roasted apple with smoked bacon (pork belly) and balsamic crème fraîche brings a medley of harmonious flavors and complimentary textures to the table. Baked cauliflower mac and cheese is a luxurious pasta option. Shell pasta gets bathed in that awesome Beecher’s cheddar along with a lush Mornay sauce. All that richness is cut by the cauliflower, which sits on top of the dish in a clean basil pesto. Then there are the pizzas, inspired by Douglas’ Seattle pie joint, Serious Pie. These are superthin crust wonders, made specifically to get the perfect amount of
crunch and chew in each bite. The broccoli rabe pie steals the show with Taggiasca olives, spicy tomato sauce, preserved tomato, basil, almonds and pecorino cheese. Desserts meet the same high bar. The best way to describe the cinnamon and sugar-coated bombolini doughnuts is as upscale street fair food. The vanilla mascarpone dip it comes with should be sold at groceries everywhere and eaten as a guilty pleasure—a
la raw cookie dough. Black Market Gelato out of Los Angeles supplies wonderful flavors including pistachio, mint chip and seasonal mixed berry. It’s easy to tell how much care this purveyor puts into his product. Then again, that’s the perfect representation of Jeannie’s. Quality product plus pride in execution means there’s no going back to your memories of what mall food once was.

Chris Trillo
Making a career, one experience at a time Chris Trillo’s favorite memory of working as lead VIP host for Omnia nightclub at Caesars Palace happened on Nov. 7, 2017. The nightclub hosted a benefit concert for those affected by the Oct. 1 tragedy. Along with his team, they brought artists and guests together for an evening of healing, but also an incredible party that raised more than a million dollars. “It was a night you just couldn’t plan for,” says Trillo, a Las Vegas native. “Looking around, it’s like there’s Tiësto, Zedd, Steve Aoki, and then here comes Celine Dion and she sang ‘My Heart Will Go On,’ and people were going wild. The way the city came together for that event was just incredible.” While that was one of Omnia’s biggest parties to date, on nearly every evening it’s been open for the past four years, Trillo has been creating experiences at the nightclub for his guests and clients. As the lead VIP host, he
30 2.24.19 LasVegasMagazine.com
guides and watches over the other hosts as they do the same. “We create an experience for people to enjoy,” he says. “We’re experience creators. It doesn’t stop when you just come in and buy a table; it’s so much more than that.” Trillo has been in the industry for nearly a decade, starting out as a busser and beverage runner at Wet Republic dayclub and eventually becoming a junior host at Pure nightclub, the city’s first megaclub, where Omnia now stands. He worked his way up the ranks and now educates a new generation of hosts. “I would like to think I lead by example,” Trillo says. “I’ve been in their shoes. I’ve been the guy that’s picked up dirty cups and refilled ice buckets to dealing with higher-end clientele to realizing the struggles that the hosts go through and helping them get through it. We’re in the taking-care-of people world, and I love it.” A million times over, we imagine. –Kiko Miyasato
Delivering bottles to VIP tables, like this Dom Perignon champagne package, is one of the coolest experiences to not only put together but to watch, says Trillo. “We can have one of the servers drop down from the ceiling to deliver the bottles to the table. We have a giant Barbie box with a server dressed up and holding the bottle, and people can unwrap the box. We parade the bottles out with sparklers and huge signs and servers dressed up in costumes. We can get really creative with the delivery ideas. We can even have superheroes like Batman drop down from the ceiling to deliver a bottle.” –KM

Heavenly Cuisine
First location in Vegas delivers excellence Named for the address of New York City’s first Chinese grocery store, Mott 32 quickly became one of Hong Kong’s top dining destinations after it opened in 2014. The elegant yet industrial restaurant is notable for bridging Eastern and Western cuisine and for striking architecture. Now The Palazzo is home to the brand’s first U.S. location (866.263.3001) under the direction of Michelin award-winning corporate executive chef Man-Sing Lee, where 42-day applewood-roasted Peking duck is sliced tableside and served with peanut butter hoisin
sauce, cucumber, scallions and traditional steamed pancakes. Dim sum options include steamed hot and sour Iberico pork Shanghaiese soup dumplings and baked Australian wagyu beef puffs, twobite morsels in a delicate pastry. Vegetarian options range from wild mushroom and black truffle lettuce cups to sautéed asparagus with water chestnuts and ginkgo nuts. Don’t skip smoked black cod, bite-sized pieces of white fish slathered in barbecue sauce lending the fish an intense, meaty flavor. –Leslie Ventura
Nestled next to manmade Lake Jacqueline in Desert Shores, Marche Bacchus (2620 Regatta Drive No. 106, 702.804.8008) has been one of Las Vegas’ favorite neighborhood spots for lunch, dinner, brunch and fine wine since owners Rhonda and Jeff Wyatt purchased it 11 years ago. Now they’ve added another dimension: a beautiful backlit abalone shell bar and full cocktail and spirits program. With more than 60 single malt Scotch options as well as premium varieties of bourbon, rye, tequila, cognac and Armagnac— and its own happy hour menu of small plates—the 18-seat bar brings a new way to experience Marche Bacchus. –Brock Radke
#trending Is barbecue having a moment in Las Vegas? It seems to be true. One of the most soulful and satisfying genres of American cuisine is taking over the Vegas Valley lately, on and off the Strip, and the latest new addition is Smoked Burgers & BBQ (The Forum Shops at Caesars, 702.816.0897). Pay it a visit and start with the two-hour smoked chicken wings tossed in your choice of signature sauces, then snack on the “Pig Candy,” apple-smoked, candied bacon with a cayenne kick. –BR

Absinthe’s ’s hilarious variety show veers from the mundane

starts with a drink, then becomes a dream. Absinthe, the variety show held inside a Spiegeltent set up in front of Caesars Palace, has gained a well-earned reputation as quite possibly the raunchiest, most raucous entertainment that can be experienced in Vegas without needing shots afterward. Hosted by show “producer” The Gazillionaire and his motormouth sidekick Wanda Widdles, Absinthe has been performed twice nightly, more than 4,000 times in all, since it first opened in Vegas and celebrates its eighth anniversary on April 1, a sacred day for the cast and fools alike. Absinthe starts out innocently enough with the Gazillionaire’s butler Maxim sitting at a table onstage in the center of the tent, pouring a glass of the fabled spirit that the show is named for as four enigmatic creatures with enormous wigs watch from swings suspended over the audience. The drink, known for its hallucinatory properties, seems to give him super strength and great powers of balance, and after he consumes it, a Green Fairy emerges to tantalize the audience and make clear there is an erotic element to the show. By the time Ukrainian acrobatic quartet Atlantis takes the stage, Absinthe’s format starts to take shape. It’s a hybrid of cabaret, burlesque, Vaudeville, dancing, extreme rollerskating and circus sideshows taken to a new level. It’s not until hypersexual Widdles introduces The Gazillionaire that the full picture begins to come into focus. “Gaz” sports a gold tux jacket, conspicuous gold dental work
and a greasy side part, his origin a complete mystery. There’s no ambiguity about the bluer-than-blue humor, though. This is not a show for snowflakes. Nothing is sacred, and the Gazillionaire has the ability to be completely offensive without causing spectators to jump up and punch him out, no matter how much he deserves it. Widdles is easily distracted by bulges showing through the acrobats’ tights. Her observations about male endowment turn into a rapid-fire monologue, one of several, and during the course of the show it becomes apparent that Widdles may be the horniest entertainer in Las Vegas. Do not panic if it seems like a gorilla with a liking for Nine Inch Nails appears suddenly next to you. If you don’t want to be chosen for audience participation segments, a deer-in-the-headlights expression of wide-eyed fear may result in Gaz choosing someone else. He doesn’t hold back on ripping into spectators, though. Whether you’re black, white, Asian, gay, straight, young, old, Republican or Democrat, the hosts of the show are equal opportunity offenders. The Gazillionaire combed the world from Armenia to Australia looking for the most unusual acts he could find, and has kept the show fresh by revising the acts over the years. Dazzling twin tap dancers Sean and John seem to be on board for the long haul, but it’s not unusual to find new acts in the show upon returning for the second or third time. Watch out for a newly installed electric tree near the tent entrance the next time you come again as well. To Absinthe. The next time you come to Absinthe.
BOB SEGER pulls out favorite hits for final tour
HEARTLAND ROCK’S FAVORITE SON BOB SEGER is heading toward the final curtain call, at least as far as tours go, with his Silver Bullet Band. Seger means what he says, unlike bands that play farewell tours every five years or so. He’s in his 70s, had to cancel dates for his previous tour due to a back condition, and has never been one to overextend himself to remain in the public eye. He grew old with his baby boomer fans, and spoke for them as sweet 16 turned 31, then 41, but the main reason they keep coming out to his concerts is the passion Seger puts into every performance. There is nary a live clip of Seger, at any age, that doesn’t capture his pure joy at playing soul-inspired Motor City rock ’n’ roll. He hasn’t changed his unpretentious approach much since he first appeared on the Detroit rock scene with the Bob Seger

became the voice of a generation entering their 30s. He’d continue to have more hits with nostalgia themes such as 1980’s “Against the Wind” and 1986 mega-hit “Like a Rock.” Seger scaled back touring commitments by the end of the ’80s, and subsequently released several albums that were embraced by his loyal fans. When he worked, he worked hard, but no longer needing to struggle enabled him to raise his family and attend Pistons games. In September of last year, he announced he would be taking the Silver Bullet Band on the road for the last time and had booked concerts through May. Seger is less mobile onstage these days, but his energy and drive hasn’t diminished. He’s also playing “Still the Same” live for the first time since the ’80s, which is reason enough to buy a ticket.

It’s a Splash
There’s an unending stream of spectacle awaiting us on the Las Vegas Strip, then we move on to the next one on our next visit. Because once you’ve checklisted the experience, it’s time to find out what else is out there. “O” (Bellagio, 702.693.8866) is the exception. It can never be mastered, only
appreciated. When the Bellagio teamed with Cirque du Soleil nearly 20 years ago to craft an aquatic dreamscape, the creative artists behind the show perfected the formula. “O” is beyond cinematic, offering just the right amounts of humor, romance and surrealism, and never ceases to surprise—no matter how many times you’ve seen it.

It’s difficult to single out memorable highlights or applause-inducing moments. The performances of characters like curious Philemon or enchanting Le Travesti is just as striking as the cadre of “zebras” dangling from a swaying jungle gym-like suspension. Only a show with so much could feel so fresh after such a long run. –Brock Radke
