Whether you’re a movie buff, a history nut or just a fan of the classics, you’ll feel like a kid in a candy store at The Auto Collections at The LINQ. Since 2000, The Auto Collections has been the nation’s largest classic car showroom, buying and trading more than 200 fully restored classic cars on display— and every car has a story. With an ever-rotating inventory, you never know what you’ll discover at The Auto Collections. No matter how many times you visit, there’s always a reason to come back. Ownership of past and present cars runs the gamut from heads of state and world leaders to stars of music, movies and stage—from a 1939 Chrysler Royal Sedan that belonged to talk show legend Johnny Carson to a 1962 Lincoln Continental Town Limousine used by President John F. Kennedy. And it’s not just the collection itself; the attention to detail on every car is remarkable. From color and paint to bells and whistles, every car is impeccably presented and maintained. Whether you spend an hour or several hours here, The Auto Collections is a truly rewarding experience for your eyes and imagination.


What do Olivia Newton-John, Britney Spears, Jenny McCarthy and Grumpy Cat all have in common? They’ve all taken a trip on the High Roller, the world’s tallest observation wheel towering 550 feet above the Las Vegas Strip. A relative newcomer, the High Roller is already one of the “must-visit” spots in town. The 28 massive, state-of-the-art pods offer everything from eight screens featuring videos, music and trivia to fully stocked bars in select pods as part of “Happy Half Hour.” Each holds up to 40 people, so group excursions are heavily encouraged. For an “only-in-Vegas” experience, you can even get married here! The High Roller offers a great social experience, but don’t miss out on the amazing views. As the pods slowly rotate during the 30-minute trip, you’ll get ever-escalating vistas of the Strip and Las Vegas Valley. As you hit that perfect angle, have your camera at the ready—this is why selfies were invented.

Las Vegas is referred to as the Entertainment Capital of the World, but spend a few hours at the Eiffel Tower Experience at Paris Las Vegas and you’ll feel like you’re in the Romance Capital of the World. The hotel itself already perfectly re-creates the cobblestone streets, shopping districts and art of its namesake, but the Eiffel Tower Experience is the icing on a very decadent French pastry. This half-scale replica of Paris’ iconic structure takes you up 460 feet in the air for incredible views of the Las Vegas Strip and beyond from the observation deck. Whether the two of you are gazing at tourists on the ground below or any variety of Strip sights, you’ll feel like you’re the only couple on Earth. It’s the perfect ambience for any date night. Fall in love all over again.

scene

one of the highlights for me of all the time I’ve been here. I’m continuing to work on my CD, which the producer called me about today, and we’re finishing at the end of this month. So that means probably April it’ll be out. It’s turning into an incredible thing. The people on it, people like Joey DeFrancesco on B-3. (Saxophonist) Dave Koz and I wrote a song and he’s on the CD. Dee Dee Bridgewater from the Count Basie band. Ledisi and I just did a duet. You have your own shows at Cabaret Jazz, are featured in Reynolds Hall often for special events such as NYE and state celebrations, and are a go-to person for guest appearances. Is it safe to say Smith Center has provided unprecedented career opportunities? There’s no doubt, absolutely. We hosted the Miss Nevada Pageant here, my wife and I. There are many events we’ve been ... part of in Reynolds, and then my regular run at Cabaret Jazz.

Clint Holmes

Performer has expanded repertoire of shows at Smith Center If any contemporary Las Vegas entertainer qualifies for the honorific “Mr. Showmanship,” it’s Clint Holmes. Holmes’ career included a No. 2 hit (“Playground in My Mind”) and being emcee for The Late Show Starring Joan Rivers before a Harrah’s headlining gig made him a Strip star. He now divides his time between cabaret shows in New York and Atlantic City, and resident artist shows at The Smith Center’s Cabaret Jazz, where he performs Feb. 4-6 with singer Domenick Allen. He recently spoke to Las Vegas Magazine’s Matt Kelemen. How was the New Year’s Eve show at The Smith Center? It really, without exaggeration, was one of the most enjoyable and one of the most rewarding shows I’ve ever done/been a part of. Everybody was so—here’s my word—serious. Serious artists, like Capathia (Jenkins), Norman (Lewis). They’re all really established Broadway people, all four of the people who are on the

24 1.31.16 LasVegasMagazine.com

show except for me. … I think it was special for the audience. I’ve actually had people come up to me and say, “It’s the best show we’ve seen in Smith Center.” What did you sing? Because it was more of a Broadway-themed night, I actually opened the show with a West Side Story medley that I do, then in the middle of the show I did the

first live performance of a cut on my new CD with Capathia, which was a modernization of a duet that Louis Armstrong and Ella Fitzgerald did from Gershwin’s Porgy and Bess. What kind of year was 2015 for you overall? It was an up and down year. The ups were: I did a show with Earl Turner here that was

The fact that you are still the resident artist at the Smith Center since 2012 speaks to your success here. When we first started this, Myron (Martin, Smith Center president and CEO) said to me, “You can do anything you want in there.” Which has really been great for me, because of what I’ve been doing. I’ve been using different bands at different times, different musicians, going more of a jazz way here. We did a James Taylor show in October. That was a wonderful show. So I’ve been able to really mix and match and do things and stretch out more. … That’s been a real blessing, having that room almost as a palette.

One question

Jaime Lynch What experiences in life mark a person as an adult—and what were they in your life? Wow! What a question! Honestly, I am not sure what marks one as an adult in life. I feel as though I’m still trying to figure that one out. As a child, I used to think that being an adult meant that you had everything in life figured out and put together—almost as if adulthood meant you had reached the ultimate destination point in life. As I’ve grown older, the more I’ve realized how untrue this actually is. It is interesting because the more experiences you have, the more you realize how little you actually know. Perhaps adulthood is not a destination that is reached, but rather a journey that is always unfolding. I have heard that happiness is about the journey and not the destination. Perhaps this goes hand-in-hand with the meaning of adulthood. Perhaps being an adult means that you can stand in your own authenticity and truth, and ride out the waves that life throws at you with grace and an open heart; to be able to stay open to learning new lessons through the experiences of life. In my life, some of my hardest struggles birthed some of my most important lessons and growth. I’m still not sure I would call myself an “adult,” but I’m certainly open to it.

Fierce and Fervent The latest tour from Bullet for My Valentine is dubbed the British Invasion Tour, but this U.S. visit from U.K. bands is very different from the prototypical British invasion led by the Beatles in the early 1960s. Bullet for My Valentine (along with British metal bands Asking Alexandria and While She Sleeps) is no tame group of mop-topped lads. Influenced by heavy metal titans like Metallica and Slayer, Bullet combines melodic vocals with catchy riffs and aggressive, intense musicianship. Formed in the Welsh town of Bridgend, Bullet brought its music to the world starting with 2005 debut album The Poison, and the band has been steadily building a following since then, with numerous tours and appearances at rock festivals. The band’s fifth and most recent album, Venom, was released last year, hitting the top 10 on the album charts in nine countries, including the U.S. The invasion has already begun, and this tour is the next step in Bullet for My Valentine’s conquest. –Josh Bell

Elegant Repast In Beijing, family meals are part of the culture— social events in which everyone gets to try a little bit of everything. Michael Chow brought his idea of the concept to American shores 41 years ago, and now he’s finally brought his legendary namesake restaurant to Las Vegas, making it one of only seven on the planet. The first thing you’ll notice at Mr. Chow is the design and décor, featuring living roomstyle furnishings in an intimate setting—and all handled by Chow himself. The dining area, accessed through a private elevator, seats 277 and affords excellent views of the Garden of the Gods Pool Oasis. Bring your appetite and a large group—Mr. Chow focuses on “communal-style” dining, with a menu highlighted by such delights as Beijing duck, green prawns, Mr. Chow Noodles, squab with lettuce, chicken satay and turnip puffs—not to mention exceptional cocktails like the Chow-lini. But Mr. Chow also offers memo-

rable sights, including a “Noodle Show,” which demonstrates how the hand-pulled noodles are made, and the champagne trolley, which rolls out at the beginning of your meal. –Ken Miller

An Aquatic Spectacle The production of “O” makes a spectacular entrance, as the crimson curtain is not so much peeled back from, but pulled into the abyss of a glittering pool. Synchronized swimmers splash, “zebras” cavort on the side of the pool and birds dive about, starting the surrealistic images that flow through the remainder of the show as an audience volunteer weaves in and out of other scenes. Platforms appear, providing acrobats an environment on which to ply their trade—contortionists balancing on small pads, an energetic

fire act and a human torch who doesn’t even seem to notice the flames. Colorfully garbed characters, such as the queen, float in the background. And the show’s celebrated swimmers play fanciful creatures teeming in the water. Our volunteer watches and waits and joins in, till from a floating basket the red curtain unfurls and he leaves, like us, a witness to the magnificence of “O.” –Nina King Bellagio, 7 & 9:30 p.m. Wed.-Sun., $98.50$155 plus tax and fee. 702.693.8866

The Heat of the Moment While Lily at Bellagio does offer bottle service, what you’ll want to make sure to check out is the lounge’s cocktails. The selection from both the signature and classic cocktails list won’t disappoint. One of the best tequila cocktails ever concocted (seriously!) is The Heat of the Moment. Served martini-style, it mixes Patron silver tequila, passion fruit purée, fresh-squeezed lime juice, agave nectar and red jalapeño chili peppers; it’s finished with a lip-smacking cinnamon sugar rim that makes every sip heaven.

Our Dreamlover

AT A GLANCE

Mariah Carey steps back into The Colosseum spotlight Mariah Carey is No. 1, and she can prove it 18 times. She has more No. 1 singles than any other solo artist and has sold more than 200 million albums. Out of all the top female artists in pop music, including Madonna, who continues to reinvent herself, and Barbra Streisand, who remains a demure powerhouse, it’s Carey who succeeded in bringing a more sensual side to music. From the first glimpse of the young charmer in the 1990 music video for her first chart-topper, “Vision of Love,” to the blossoming of a diva in 1997’s music video for another No. 1 single, “Honey,” Carey’s metamorphosis has matched the power of her musical career. Throughout the ’90s the songstress ruled the airwaves and MTV, and just as her No. 1

32 1.31.16 LasVegasMagazine.com

singles like “Dreamlover” and “I’ll Be There” soundtracked many people’s crushes, relationships and breakups, so, too, did Carey’s music follow changes in her own life. Each song seemed to tip off a new, more tenaciously sure side of the singer by nurturing a confidence in her sound. Although the height of Carey’s career can be contained within the timeline of her 1990 self-titled debut album to her last No. 1 single in 2007, it’s her meteoric rise, influence on pop culture and her embrace of her own history that makes Carey a mega musical star despite a break from the spotlight. But now, the lights are turned back on, and Carey proves once again why she’s No. 1. –Kiko Miyasato

Mariah Carey The show coincides with the release of Carey’s “Infinity,” off the album that bears the same name as her Caesars residency The audience is taken through all 18 hits, from songs like “Someday” that captivate listeners with her five-octave vocal range to her more seductive tone in “Honey”

A Sexual Revolution Provocative, sexy, a little naughty. If that sounds like the kind of night you desire, then Zumanity, delivers. Emcee Edie, the Mistress of Sensuality, tickles her way through the show as the narrator. Red mohawk-sporting audience favorite Brandon Pereyda straps into chains hanging above the stage for some erotic aerials paired with a solo cellist. In an act that could be in the next Fifty Shades of Grey novel, an aerialist gets physical with straps wrapping around her body. Two topless women glide effortlessly in and out of a giant glass bowl of water as they contort. Another vignette puts

Marina Tomanova on a bed dreaming of awakening to the man of her dreams as Michael McNamara swoops down from above in an aerial piece. Dmitry Shine Bulkin pulls off a daring act of balancing on a pole wearing nothing but a red bikini. In the finale, all cast members lounge about on a lazy Susan of a stage and chose audience members. Be forewarned: There may be some shirt removal and light petting. It all takes place in the 1,261-seat theater that includes a love seat for those who want to canoodle.

Originally an automobile museum, The Auto Collections became the largest classic car showroom in 2000, selling, buying and trading more than 200 fully restored classic cars. “We sometimes have deals that are done within a half hour,” said Rob Williams, the general manager of The Auto Collections. “If someone comes in today, they’re going to see a lot of different cars than six months from now.” Visitors can browse aisles and aisles of top carmakers, and the colors and attention to detail on these cars are unparalleled by anything on the road today. Some of the most interesting automobiles are housed in the Grand Salon portion. “Every single one of those cars has a great back story,” Williams said.

Senses Wide Awake As Shakespeare more or less wrote: “To sleep, perchance to jreamz.” Yet you’ll be wide awake for this surreal journey—officially titled Jreamz: Journey Within—in the latest production from those masked men known as Jabbawockeez. Wearing signature white, featureless face masks, the hip-hop dancers create a trippy tableau of sleek moves, furious break dancing, physical comedy, video projections and audience interaction set to a soundtrack that swings wildly from Sting to Michael Jackson to Digital Underground to the Beauty and the Beast theme. Adding dimension to all that stimuli is a brand new plot that involves a zombie—which is actually metaphorical for the fellow living a mundane life. Vivid atmospherics poured onto the screen and adjoining walls include a mushroom forest and the actual gritty backdrop from the video game Street Fighter.

Slicing Into Greatness Feel the Rush VooDoo ZipLine, the popular attraction at Rio, celebrated its anniversary last summer and people still can’t seem to get enough. For more than a year and a half now, thrillseekers—and those brave souls—have felt the adrenaline rush when soaring high in the air at speeds slightly over 30 miles per hour.

It probably goes without saying you’ll be tempted to try a steak at N9NE Steakhouse, and from filet mignon to New York sirloin (including some dry-aged options), you won’t regret that choice. There are plenty of great side dishes too. We recommend starting with George’s creamed corn, an unbelievably thick and rich version of the classic. Potato options here are plentiful, including lobster mashed potatoes and truffle French fries. If you’re not in the mood for a classic baked potato, try the Yukon gold potato gnocchi in a white truffle cream. –Ken Miller Palms, 5:30-10 p.m. Sun.-Thurs., 5:30-11 p.m. Fri.-Sat. 702.933.9900 Jabbawockeez photo by Shane O’Neal Photography VooDoo ZipLine courtesy photo N9NE Steakhouse photo by Peter Harasty

An Evolution of Rock and Jazz Bo Bice, who was the runner-up to winner Carrie Underwood on American Idol, also has made his mark in the music world by becoming the front man for the iconic musical group Blood, Sweat & Tears. The band, which has been going strong since the ’70s was founded by Bobby Colomby, the original drummer (Colomby owns the franchise now, while Dylan Elise has assumed the role of drummer), who wanted to blend rock and jazz into music. Colomby said on the band’s website that he had the notion that the band “could

combine the sophistication and musical skill level of jazz music with the energy and universal appeal of rock vocal music.” As a result, such epic hits as “You’ve Made Me So Very Happy,” “Spinning Wheel,” “And When I Die” “Hi-De-Ho” and “Lucretia MacEvil,” came into being. The group plays hits like those in concert, plus a segment dedicated to “Songs We Wish We’d Recorded.” With Bice joining the group, the next chapter in the evolution of the band continues. –Penny Levin

Jan Rouven (Tropicana, 800.829.9034) has performed an inestimable number of tricks on the path to Strip-headliner status, but it looks like a majority of his future acts will be in Las Vegas at his resident show Illusions. Siegfried & Roy and Rouven struck up a friendship over the years, and the duo would later give him their blessing in a most benevolent way: They gave Rouven Origami, now a centerpiece of his act. Another riveting illusion: the Drill of Death. –Matt Kelemen

A Need to Rock AC/DC has more songs with the word “rock” in the title than some bands have in their entire catalog. That’s appropriate for one of the defining acts of hard rock, whose songs like “For Those About to Rock,” “Let There Be Rock,” “Rock and Roll Ain’t Noise Pollution” and “Hard as a Rock” (among many others) form the foundations of the genre. AC/DC has been around for more than 40 years, enduring both hardship and triumph. That hardship includes the 1980 death of original lead singer Bon Scott and the recent departure of founding guitarist Malcolm Young. But no illness or injury can keep AC/DC down, and lead guitarist Angus Young (Malcolm’s brother) has kept the band together. Singer Brian Johnson has been with the band since Scott’s death, and he’s the voice behind songs like “You Shook Me All Night Long” and “Thunderstruck.” With Angus and Malcolm’s nephew Stevie Young filling in for Malcolm, AC/DC is set to keep rocking for years. –Josh Bell

Oyster Bar at Harrah’s specializes in succulent seafood

ometimes you just get a craving for oysters. That’s completely understandable. One of the ocean’s most flavorful offerings, oysters are the seafood equivalent of potato chips: You can’t eat just one. And while Las Vegas has more than its fair share of oyster bars, make sure you include The Oyster Bar at Harrah’s on your mollusk itinerary. A staple at Harrah’s for the last nine years, Oyster Bar features a wide-ranging menu

44 1.31.16 LasVegasMagazine.com

courtesy of chef Robert Crofford. It’s clearly designed for oyster fans, with a large bar area as well as plenty of table seating. Eight different options here include oysters on the half shell (our personal favorite), grilled oysters with garlic-Parmesan butter and oysters Rockefeller, prepared with spinach, Hollandaise sauce and a dash of Pernod. Select from six or a dozen, all paired with horseradish, which really helps to bring out the briny zing in every bite.

Grilled oysters

It seems almost inconceivable to be eating oysters without the accompaniment of an alcoholic beverage, and Oyster Bar has plenty to keep you fueled for that next delicious morsel. In addition to a respectable beer and wine list, choose from signature cocktails like the Blue Lagoon, made with Grey Goose L’Orange vodka, Midori Melon liqueur and Hiram Walker blue curacao, and the Red Tide, featuring Belvedere black raspberry vodka, Chambord black raspberry liqueur and watermelon schnapps.

Bacon-wrapped shrimp and scallops

Now that you’ve warmed up with some oysters, continue your culinary odyssey with a huge array of appetizers. The melt-in-yourmouth tuna sashimi is a particular highlight, as are Maryland crab cakes, cooked thin and served on mixed greens with red pepper aioli, a fantastic combination of sea and garden. Bacon-wrapped shrimp and scallops almost look too good to eat, but c’mon—who can resist bacon? The cold seafood platter for two could substitute as a meal, featuring lobster, shrimp, mussels and

oysters. And don’t miss out on some of the best clam chowder on the Strip—Oyster Bar serves both the smooth, creamy New England and minestrone-esque Manhattan styles, also available in bread bowls. Keep the seafood party going with signature entrées like Parmesan-crusted halibut, perfectly paired with Florentine sauce and fried potato rounds, succulent Alaskan king crab legs that are pre-cracked for maximum enjoyment and zero work, and the classic surf and turf combo of lob-

ster tail and petite filet. For the truly hungry, try O.B.’s pan roast, a compilation of lobster, jumbo shrimp, clams and mussels in a smoked tomato cream sauce served with jasmine rice. This one is as fun to ogle as it is to eat. Ordering dessert at Oyster Bar is an uncomplicated affair—there are three pies on the menu, and all are equally decadent. Choose from key lime, Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup or Oreo ice cream. They’re the perfect capper for an amazing evening of seafood delights.

Barrel-Aged Old Fashioned

Lukas Pesek

General manager driven by a lifelong passion It all started with wine for Lukas Pesek, general manager of Spago at The Forum Shops at Caesars. While he was growing up in Prague, his family was big into dining, and when Pesek began drinking wine, his dad had one rule: When Pesek ordered a glass, he was not only to drink, but to describe flavors, look and aromas. “From an early age, I learned about food and beverage,” Pesek said. “I would write all the stuff down in a notebook, write about the experiences.” That prompted Pesek to attend hospitality school in Switzerland. He eventually managed restaurants in locales like Mexico City and Miami. But when he moved back to Prague, it was a chance meeting with a UNLV professor that put him on a path to Las Vegas. “I served

46 1.31.16 LasVegasMagazine.com

him wine at the Four Seasons I was working at,” Pesek recalled. “After talking for a while, he said, ‘Someone like you needs to go to Las Vegas. I’ve traveled all over the world and I’ve never met someone more passionate about what they do.’ So, I moved Vegas and enrolled in UNLV’s hospitality program.” Pesek’s first job in the city was at Spago in 2008. From there he moved throughout Wolfgang Puck’s Las Vegas restaurants; then he helped open Puck’s restaurant in Dubai. After living there 18 months, he rejoined Spago last year. “For me, it’s like coming back to my roots; it’s special to me,” he said. “Spago—since it opened in 1992, it’s been a dining experience that guests never forget.” –Kiko Miyasato

This specialty cocktail is what Pesek calls, “a piece of heaven in a glass.” Three rye whiskies, one bourbon and demerara syrup,are mixed, and poured into a big oak barrel, where it’s aged for at least 30 days. “The syrup almost turns to a honey-like consistency during the aging process, leaving this perfectly sweet hint; and the alcohol flavoring steps away and allows natural flavors to shine through,” Pesek said. The Old Fashioned is then poured over a big chip of ice from a block of ice made from highend, purified water. The cocktail is finished with a sprinkling of orange bitters and a Maraschino cherry. –KM

how we all wish it were “summer, summer, summertime,” just like Will Smith sang, but until then, make it through the winter months by turning your daytime party plans to Ghostbar Dayclub at Palms. The saying “party like an animal” doesn’t even do this place justice—it’s more than that. There’s Hello Kitty making an entrance, life-size banana costumes, go-go dancers dressed like Lady Gaga in her “Poker Face” music video, confetti showers and rainbow-colored sheer curtains on the windows, people twerking and fist pumping while the DJ spins hip-hop and top 40 and 54 1.31.16 LasVegasMagazine.com

the sounds of whistles piercing the air along to the beats of the blaring music—just an average Saturday at GBDC. “GBDC is a perfect way to kick off your Vegas weekend and create some long lasting memories,” said Melanie Salas-Delillo, Palms Casino Resort marketing director. “Anything really goes at the party.” Now in its fifth season, GBDC has gone above and beyond, with celebrity hosts and bottle service experiences, in addition to its lively atmosphere. “Every year, we continue to cater to what partygoers want,” Salas-Delillo said. “Last year, we started experimenting with popular social media influencers such

as Jenna Marbles. They have such a strong following, sometimes even more than the big celebrities, and their fans have such a strong connection to them.” Celebrities like Will Smith and Jada Pinkett-Smith, Richard Sherman, Jeremih, Sam Hunt and Flo-Rida have stepped into the party in the past, but there’s just something about those “social media influencers” that takes the party into overdrive. Hosts this season include The Fat Jew, a pop-culture commentator, among other things, Baddie Winkle, an 87-year-old who has the personality and style of a teen, and Kirill Was Here, a nightlife photographer and party curator.


Kirill Was Here was an amazing host, said Salas-Delillo. “He’s known for the champagne showers. It was really an off-the-wall party. We had kiddie pools in the venue, silly string, candy … it was a lot of fun. He brought GBDC to another level, which is really hard to believe because the party is already over the top.” Mark your calendars—he returns on March 12 for GBDC’s season-closing party. Besides the outrageous hosts seen in the past few months, Salas-Delillo said, GBDC has over-the-top bottle packages that haven’t been offered in the past. “For example, we have a Put A Ring On It package, which includes everything that you would need to Photos by Joe Fury

So many ways to watch, you’ll be bowled over Las Vegas will host more than 300,000 visitors for Super Bowl weekend, with more than $100 million likely to be wagered on the 50th match-up on Feb. 7 between the NFL’s conference champs. It’s easy to get in on the betting action, but deciding where and how to watch the Big Game requires a little foresight and planning. Plan ahead, get there early, and remember first-come/first-served as a general rule, if you’re not going to make a reservation at a party or viewing area. Since nearly every casino bar, sports book, restaurant or club will be showing the game, the only real issue is making a decision. Sports books are go-to choices for visitors spending the weekend on casino properties, but many if not all the books favor VIPs and big bettors, so get there

early for remaining open spaces. At MGM Grand, reserving a VIP skybox in the 60-screen sports book will ensure a good view of the game if sleeping through a wake-up call is a danger. Mandalay Bay has one of the larger sports books on the south end of the Strip, while the jumbo screens at Caesars Palace’s book on the north side of the property (next to Omnia nightclub) allow glimpses of the game while walking by, as do the screens at the Palms’ sports book by its west parking entrance. If it’s too crowded at the Palms book, the casino’s Hooters offers five drink tickets with $50 entry. Planet Hollywood Resort’s book, Playing Field Lounge, boasts the feel of a “sleek sophisticated bar” with 33 flat-screen screens, two jumbo screens, a VIP area and draft beer “yard-longs.” For a

Umami Burger, Beer Garden & Sports Book at SLS prices open bar tickets at $75 and table packages starting at $100. Back at the MGM Grand, Crush offers an $85 “endless feast” tailgate menu of tray-passed selections like Angus mini burgers, baby back ribs, Nana D’s meatball flatbread, Mexican street corn and desserts.

But the biggest Game Day celebrations may be happening at Westgate Las Vegas, where the 30,000-square-foot Superbook features 28 giant screens (and one behemoth screen). The Westgate ballrooms are also the location of Casa Di Amore restaurant’s Ninth Annual Big Game Party. Unlimited branded liquor and Italian subs, Philly cheesesteaks, ziti, chicken and Greek feta wraps are included for $158, seating is guaranteed, and the Vegas Vanguard Entertainment Drumline promises to pound the party into a frenzy.

He’s a pro. You’ll never even see how he tricks you. King, who’s been performing on the Las Vegas Strip for more than 15 years, specializes in close-up magic, a skill he learned from his grandfather, who used to point him to his magic books when King asked how he did a trick.

Trio Triumphant After headlining at Life Nightclub last year, it’s only right that Lil Wayne returns to perform Feb. 6 with Method Man and Redman at The Foundry (SLS Las Vegas, 702.761.7000), the venue Life transformed into. You can call him Weezy or Lil Tunechi—either way, he has tons of star power, with 20 years in the rap game.

In the single “Da Rockwilder,” the hardcore intro begins with: “microphone checka, swingin’ sword lecture; closin’ down the sector, supreme neck protector” (if you’re a hip-hop fanatic you know the rest). –Chanelle Hayes

ROBIN LEACH OUT & ABOUT

Strip Scribbles With his finger on the pulse of Las Vegas, Robin Leach is the go-to source for everything celebrity and entertainment related. For all the latest happenings and full stories, visit his blog at LasVegasSun.com. It’s an event for the ages when Guns N’ Roses, featuring the iconic lineup of Axl Rose, Slash and Duff McKagan, regroup for the first time in 23 years at the new T-Mobile Arena. They will headline at Coachella, then head for the Strip for a historic return in a two-night rock spectacular. Guns N’ Roses will perform April 8-9. Skeptical fans are already asking if the trio will end their feuding, which is what kept them apart for more than two decades, long enough to make it here.

WhoWhatWhere NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal is one of the investors in the Strip’s first rooftop bar and grill and received an advance hard-hat tour to check on progress of Budweiser’s new Beer Park Las Vegas atop Chateau in Paris Las Vegas. Actor Vince Vaughn dined at Jenna and Michael Morton’s Crush in MGM Grand. Jennifer

Lopez and boyfriend Casper Smart were spotted enjoying lunch at Carmine’s in The Forum Shops at Caesars. Also at Carmine’s was UFC fighter Frank Mir having dinner with family. Brandon Phillips of the Cincinnati Reds was spotted at Tao Nightclub in The Venetian with a group

of friends where he greeted fans before heading to his VIP table. Also at Tao was San Francisco 49ers linebacker NaVorro Bowman at a separate table with friends taking in the sounds by DJ Five. American actor and producer Nicolas Cage enjoyed an evening of drinking at Palms’ Social Bar.

Steve Harvey is still beating himself up over the error he made here at Axis at Planet Hollywood Resort on live television when he read the incorrect name of the winner at the Miss Universe Pageant. Steve was in tears on his The Steve Harvey Show while interviewing winner Miss Philippines Pia Wurtzbach. Steve apologized to new Miss Universe saying that he truly regretted his blunder. The gracious winner told him it was time to move on. This year’s Cirque du Soleil One Night for One Drop: Quest for Water has several new elements. It’s the first time performers from other Strip productions will join in. Leona Lewis joins the cast. And choreographer Hassan El Hajjami will be the show’s artistic director. Because he knows from the experience of caring for his grandmother what it is like to live in a waterless village in Morocco, in his contract with Cirque, he won the right to a funded water system for her village.

available, offering fans access to the Neon Lounge with private cash bar, elevated viewing and lounge seating, express festival entrance, food vendors, festival concierge and more. “Everything in Las Vegas is larger than life and spectacular, so it sets the bar pretty high for us coming back each year,” said Brian O’Connell, Live Nation president of Country Touring, in a news release. “Route 91 has grown way beyond our expectations in only two years, especially selling out ahead of gates opening last year. I’m thrilled to be able to bring some of country’s brightest stars to party and continue to make an even bigger mark on Sin City!” –Don Chareunsy
