t’s hard to imagine Kendrick Lamar will ever come up with a better concert opener than “DNA,” track two from his highly acclaimed fourth album, DAMN in which he redefines hip-hop bravado: “I got power, poison, pain and joy inside my DNA/I got hustle though, ambition, flow, inside my DNA.” Lamar has been using the powerful track to kick off his shows during his biggest tour yet, which arrives at T-Mobile Arena Saturday night. Whether or not you consider the new album his artistic masterpiece—a
lofty statement given the young star’s stellar output so far—there’s no doubt that Lamar’s live performance has never been bigger or better, as he has graduated to selling out arenas across the country. His current show is all-Kendrick—no extras onstage, no over-the-top production, just an artist at his peak delivering the entirety of his latest work, with plenty of past hits and favorites mixed in. Of his second tour stop in Brooklyn, The New Yorker wrote: “He did not perform with a band or with hype men, and managed the massive Barclays stage on his own. He seemed to
have forgotten about the film behind him, about his costume. The visual busyness of the stage only emphasized how Lamar’s fiercely concentrated stage presence can overwhelm all activity around him. His delivery is a testament to the enduring power of an unvarnished rap performance.” Kendrick Lamar with Travis Scott and D.R.A.M. at T-Mobile Arena, August 5.

he Killers opened T-Mobile Arena on the Strip last year—even performing with Wayne Newton—and that seemed like the most right-now Vegas thing that could ever happen. But the band might have outdone itself this week when it played in front of Caesars Palace Monday night, launching new album Wonderful Wonderful (due September 22) and a tour with an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!
PHOTOGRAPH BY ROB LOUD
A crowd of thousands packed the sweltering asphalt lot in front of the iconic resort—many local Las Vegans and longtime Killers fans—while VIPs watched the show from Omnia’s Strip-front terrace. Tourists stopped in their tracks on the Boulevard to get a glimpse of the action, while more fans grabbed a spot at Flamingo’s Margaritaville balcony or the Vortex at the nearby Linq. The Killers stormed through fresh hit “The Man”—twice, actually, as this was a TV taping— before unleashing new single “Run for Cover,” a hard-charging rock anthem. With Kimmel duties wrapped up, the hometown heroes proceeded to plaster the Strip with more than an hour of music, stampeding through their greatest hits. Brandon Flowers took his time telling stories between songs, explaining how some Killers favorites were born from answering machine messages he’d leave for guitarist Dave Keuning, and asking drummer Ronnie Vannucci just how long his mother worked as a cocktail waitress in Caesars’ casino, just steps away. When they finally signed off with “Mr. Brightside,” a hot summer Monday night had turned into a fan appreciation party, and another memorable Vegas moment for the Killers. The next one could happen Super Bowl weekend, when their tour brings them back home, to MGM Grand Garden Arena. –Brock Radke

n a time when world musicinfused hip-hop tracks and superstar dance music collaborations are topping the summer charts, English singersongwriter Ed Sheeran is something of an unlikely pop star. His humble, earnest, acoustic guitar-strumming style could be considered an odd fit against the hypercharged, often overproduced pop music of the day.
But the fact that he’s obviously a huge hip-hop fan has only endeared him to new audiences. Sheeran is known for crafting catchy singalong tunes but also for covering his favorite hits with just his voice and guitar, including “We Found Love” by Rihanna and Calvin Harris, “Drunk in Love” by Beyoncé, “No Diggity” by Blackstreet (which he actually mashed up with Macklemore’s “Thrift Shop”) and “Coco” by O.T. Genasis.
Add these gems to Sheeran’s recent cameo on Game of Thrones and the fact that his album Divide was named the U.K.’s biggest selling entertainment product in 2017 ahead of the home-cinema release of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, and this singer-songwriter qualifies as a real pop-culture phenomenon. Ed Sheeran with James Blunt at T-Mobile Arena, August 4.

or a modern-day singersongwriter, Joshua Keith Ostrander sure loves touting a boombox. Peruse any of his social media accounts and you’ll see images of him hauling his set of speakers like a lifelong best friend. For the uninitiated, the image probably screams “DJ/producer,” but those who’ve gotten a taste of Ostander’s sound know the image signifies a lifelong dedication to music, which accelerated after he left his band Eastern Conference Champions as it was about to sign to a major label. Now using the moniker Mondo Cozmo, Ostrander has performed on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, played in Quebec for 100,000 people, opened for Bastille on a six-week run and locked in a spot at Lollapalooza and a support slot for Spoon—all before releasing a proper album. Mondo Cozmo cherry-picks the relatable, everyman messages of folkrock greats like Bob Dylan and Pete Seeger, and packages them with style and gusto. “Shine,” the breakout hit, features a simple four-chord melody intermingling acoustic and electric guitars beneath Ostrander’s distinct vocal twang. “People write to me almost daily about how the song has helped them push through
T O
L E A D S C O Z M O
some tough times. It’s incredible,” Ostrander says. The title track from the band’s upcoming debut album, Plastic Soul (out August 4 on Republic Records), stirred up some controversy after Ostrander struggled to clear a sample from Erma Franklin’s 1967 recording of “Piece of My Heart” (a song later popularized by Janis Joplin). “I heard some piano chords that stopped me in my tracks, so I decided to loop it and make a song out of it,” he says. Ultimately, Ostrander became so frustrated with the process, he decided to release his track for free. Mondo Cozmo is already making its rounds, with a date planned for Las Vegas’ inaugural Emerge Music + Impact Conference in November. Ostrander will then hit the road for a headlining tour. “Now is the time to get out there and give people a taste of Mondo Cozmo,” he says. –Ian Caramanzana

game-changing entertainment development in Vancouver is coming soon, and it’ll have plenty of Las Vegas flavor. Parq Vancouver is set to open this fall in the British Columbian city’s downtown district, a LEED Gold Standard development that includes two luxury lifestyle hotels—Western Canada’s first JW Marriott Hotel and first-to-market Autograph Collection Hotel concept the Douglas—along with 72,000 square feet of casino space, a 30,000-square-foot rooftop park, meeting and event space and eight restaurants and lounges crafted
and curated by award-winning Las Vegas-based restaurateurs Elizabeth Blau and chef Kim Canteenwalla. Among the restaurant offerings: a Vancouver version of Honey Salt, serving farm-to-table cuisine in a warm, welcoming environment; BC Kitchen, a classic comfort food bar; the Victor, a seafood and steakhouse boasting impressive views of the water and downtown skyline; and 1886, named for the year Vancouver’s Chinatown first emerged and specializing in dishes from Canton, Szechuan, Hunan and Shanghai. Bar and lounge concepts include D/6,
an indoor/outdoor sky bar on the sixth floor of the Douglas, and Lotus Whiskey and Tea Lounge, an exotic and sophisticated destination adjacent to the high-limit gaming area. Years in the works, the Parq Vancouver food and beverage portfolio is sure to parallel the overall experience with a distinct, multicultural voice that reflects its dynamic city.

ver since Tino “BadBeat” Gomez launched Techno Taco Tuesday at popular local spot Tacos & Beer, it’s been one of the most successful house hangs in Las Vegas. Opening his own cocktail and juice bar in the same complex just came naturally. Owners (and DJs) Gomez and Oscar Molina opened Juicy Beets to provide the community—specifically the underground electronic set—with a healthy alternative to the run-of-themill party scene. “I’ve been doing events for the last 12 years,” Gomez says. “There’s been pe-
riods in that time where I just didn’t want to drink, and there’s not many options at bars to get a juice or some coconut water or a good latte or tea.” Inspired by a vegan restaurant he stumbled upon in Salt Lake City, Gomez decided to create a cool, comfortable and bohemian space with freshsqueezed juices and smoothies—not to mention a full bar. In the evening, Juicy Beets turns its focus to house events, making it the perfect lounge space. “You can dance and have a great time, or you can still have a conversation and feel the music and groove to it.”
The owners plan on launching a food menu in the coming months; in the meantime, guests can order from adjacent Indian restaurant Urban Turban. “Nowadays, we have more friends that are more into juicing and more into taking care of themselves,” Gomez says. “How can you help your friends stay healthy?” Juicy Beets is a good start. Juicy Beets, 3900 Paradise Road, 702-826-3217. –Leslie Ventura

t’s opening day at star chef Robert Irvine’s huge new restaurant on the Las Vegas Strip, and I’m trying to find out his favorite dish on the menu. It’s a tough call; the all-day menu offers hearty, familiar comfort foods with fun, flavorful twists, like the kale pesto pizza with speck, or a devastatingly delicious version of fish and chips with shoestring fries topped with curry, bacon and feta cheese. “It depends what mood I’m in,” says the burly Brit. “Yesterday, I had the tomahawk ribeye, and it’s a meal and a half; easily feeds four people. I was stuffed, but not stuffed enough to skip
the banoffee pie.” Indeed, the classic English treat made with bananas, cream and toffee should not be missed. Other standouts include the “fork and knife” fondue burger, Creekstone Farms Black Angus beef on brioche smothered in mushrooms, onions and bacon; creative salads like mixed heirloom tomatoes with grilled ciabatta; chicken-fried duck confit with maple and sherry vinegar; and the stone-fired shepherds pie, made traditionally with lamb and a mashed potato crust. Robert Irvine’s Public House is off to a quick start, thanks to its Strip-front
location at the Tropicana. The star chef says that’s just the start at the iconic Vegas property. “They’ve put a lot of money into this place, and they’re really restoring the luster of it,” Irvine says. “This restaurant and the rooms and suites is really only the first part. I’ve seen the plans, and it’s really cool. I’m just glad to be part of a company that has the same feelings about food as I do.” Robert Irvine’s Public House at the Tropicana, 702-739-2307; daily 11 a.m.-11 p.m. –Brock Radke

hen the name on the door reads José Andrés, you know the style of cuisine will be creative. And the Spanish chef’s innovation doesn’t end with the food menu. Bazaar Meat’s new selection of summer cocktails reinforces the point. Seemingly simple concoctions are mixed with something new in mind, like the El Compadre—Buffalo Trace bourbon and the herbacious aperitif Aperol with a blast of fresh lemon juice. Seasonally appropriate whimsy serves as the main ingredient in the Pink Punk Lemonade (Ford’s gin, lemon, raspberry and soda) and the Tornup Tiki Punch (vanillahabanero rum shaken with cinnamon and pineapple and grapefruit juices). If you’re ready to get wild, try the Blurred Borders: old-world style Tequila Ocho with Pernod absinthe, serrano pepper and
t a s t e
c u i s i n e
Peychaud’s bitters. If you’re already blurry and need something straight-up to smooth things over, the Liquid Cherry Martini—made with Tanqueray Old Tom, Yzaguirre sweet vermouth, Pierre Ferrand orange curacao and Dr. Adam Elmegirab Boker’s bitters—will get you there, with flavor to spare. Another easy option is the pretty Cross Eyed Mary, a paring of Bacardi 8 rum, absinthe, lemon and honey. If ever there was a drink equally suited to warm up your palate for a memorable meal or put the final exclamation point on your Bazaar experience, Mary is the girl. Bazaar Meat at SLS Las Vegas, 702-761-7610; Sunday-Thursday 5:30-10 p.m., Friday & Saturday 5:30-11 p.m.
