on the scene WITH BROCK RADKE
He’s It
For Hannibal Buress, stand-up is king You’ve seen Hannibal Buress stealing big-screen scenes in popular comedies like Neighbors, Baywatch, Daddy’s Home and even the superhero blockbuster Spider-Man: Homecoming. Now the Chicago-born comedian is getting all the screen time he can handle in this month’s goofy ensemble flick Tag, also starring Jon Hamm, Jeremy Renner, Ed Helms and Isla Fisher.
12 6.3.18 LasVegasMagazine.com
“This is the biggest one so far, the movie I have the most to do with the story. I’m just excited to see how this one connects,” says Buress, who developed his provocative-yet-deadpan style on the stand-up stage. “This one is a whole different ballgame. When you’re on the posters and the billboards and a bigger part of that whole promotional process, it’s a
different set of obligations. It’s a shift for me.” Tag is about a group of former classmates who organize an elaborate, annual game of tag that takes over their lives and wreaks havoc on everyone around them. If you ask me, it sounds pretty ridiculous, in a good way. “It is pretty ridiculous,” Buress agrees. “A lot of us, while we were doing it, would stop and
say, ‘Yo, we’re doing a movie about tag.’ But it’s really more about the friendship and the fun and the conversations and camaraderie that come with it. The cast is really good. It’s solid.” For Buress, who makes a Strip stop for The Mirage’s Aces of Comedy series on June 8, movies are fun and can be exciting but it’s all about propelling his career as a stand-up comedian. “At the risk of sounding incredibly unprofessional, I don’t really prep for movies. I just do a movie,” he laughs. “I just show up and say words until they say it’s time for lunch, then it’s time to go back and say some words until it’s time to go home. You just try to be funny in the context of this movie, you improvise, you try to stay on point with the story.” He’ll be telling his own stories onstage at the Terry Fator Theatre this week. Buress is not just a touring comic visiting Vegas—he’s a regular. He’s been known to take a Sin City stopover while traveling between Chicago and Los Angeles and he likes to see shows, gamble and party like any other Vegas visitor. He’s even developed an affinity for the Vegas Golden Knights. “I’ve been to a good amount of Golden Knights games and they’ve been fun to watch,” says Buress. “I don’t do too many shows in Vegas because I don’t want to burn out my draw, but it’s a great place to perform. Last time I (performed) there I happened to run into (fellow comedian) Craig Robinson. He was staying next door and we didn’t even know it, I just bumped into him in the hallway. That was a pretty fun, random Vegas night.” Buress plays The Mirage on June 8.

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 LasVegasWeekly.com.
All the small things The newly renovated Pearl Theater is now home to the very first punk rock concert residency in Las Vegas, complements of blink-182. The Palms, the hotel that set some serious trends as a celebrity magnet, nightlife dynamo and pool-party destination is doing it again; don’t expect this to be the only residency setting up in the 2,500-capacity Pearl, and don’t think blink-182 will
be the only band making Vegas its headquarters for an extended run. The 16-show Kings of the Weekend run kicked off during Memorial Day weekend and the boys return June 8-9, 15-16 and 23-24, returning for dates in October and November. These shows mean even more to the band and its fans considering blink-182 doesn’t have any West Coast concerts planned for 2018.
King of Sweets “Cake Boss” Buddy Valastro loves to visit Las Vegas any time, and not just to check in on his Buddy V’s Ristorante and Carlo’s Bakery shop at The Grand Canal Shoppes. But as far as timing goes, a weekend trip for the annual Vegas Uncork’d culinary festival is tough to beat. “I love to see the other chefs because you don’t always get to see everybody in one place,” Valastro told me on the red carpet for the Grand Tasting event last month. “This is the Super Bowl. Look at all these chefs, some of the best in the world. To be part of this group is special, even though I’m a baker.” He’s a baker whose work is never done in Las Vegas—Valastro confessed he’s exploring an expansion at The Venetian and The Palazzo. “We’ve got some other concepts and we’re talking about it.”

The 2018 Billboard Music Awards was broadcast live from MGM Grand Garden Arena and the post-show parties spread the stars across the Strip. The hottest hot spot was Spago at Bellagio, where chef Wolfgang Puck welcomed Jennifer Lopez for a bash celebrating the release of her new single “Dinero.” The producer of the track, DJ Khaled, was in the house, joined by T.I., Salt-N-Pepa, French Montana, Ashlee Simpson and more. Las Vegas just doesn’t make sense without George Wallace onstage. The renowned comedian is back with a new comedy residency at the intimate Westgate Cabaret, launching on June 26. “Time away from the city the last few years has provided me with plenty of new material to add to the show,” he said. It’s time to reacquaint yourself with the Palms. The off-Strip resort is in the midst of a massive $630 million renovation and recently threw an invite-only soirée to unveil the first phase of developments. General manager Jon Gray welcomed esteemed guests—including the original owner of the Palms, George Maloof—to explore new bars Camden Cocktail Lounge and The Unknown, the redesigned restaurant space now known as Scotch 80 Prime and the 55th-floor nightspot Apex Social Club, where a surprise performance by rapper J. Cole thrilled the crowd. Actress Leah Remini was also in town and took the opportunity to reunite with her Dancing with the Stars partner Tony Dovolani onstage at Chippendales at Rio. Dovolani was wrapping up his celebrity guest host duties.

One of the keys to a long-running Las Vegas show is to include an element that makes it crucial for the audience to come back. That’s part of why Legends in Concert is the Strip’s longest-running hit: It’s continually adding cast members to its list of impersonators, and the attention to detail, from appearance to singing ability, is staggering. The current lineup includes Aretha Franklin, Sting, young Michael Jackson and Elvis Presley. As Aretha Franklin, Cynthia Minx will make you believe you’re seeing the real thing. Minx is a Vegas girl who might be recognized from other Strip performances. Germany native Andy K takes his turn immortalizing Sting, going through some of the singer’s most timeless hits. It’s sure to be a thriller of a show as Nathaniel Cullors portrays young Michael Jackson— he’s got the future King of Pop’s looks. And you can’t help falling in love with longtime Vegas entertainer Kevin Mills as he replicates Elvis Presley’s iconic look and moves. –Las Vegas Magazine Staff

Magical Connection Call him a freak. Dude doesn’t mind. Really. When your show is titled CRISS ANGEL Mindfreak Live!, you can’t mind the “freak” label, can ya? Besides, it’s all by design. “I wanted to create the ultimate magic experience, to embrace technology that no Vegas show, up to this point, has,” Angel said. “For me, it was about creating a journey, the magic of emotion that would connect people and take them on a roller coaster ride. Some of it would be scary,

some of it creepy, some of it funny, might even make you shed a tear...” Highlights of the illusionist’s production include sawing a woman in half (but declining to reassemble her), an upsidedown straitjacket escape, disappearing (and reappearing in the crowd), and a levitation stunt in which the goth-glossed performer levitates above a ladder, across the stage and inside a metal sphere. It’s positively “freak”-ish. –Las Vegas Magazine Staff
The Fun Life Comic Jo Koy proudly calls Las Vegas his home, and the place he got his first big break when he appeared at the Catch a Rising Star comedy club. Prior to that, he would rent the iconic Huntridge Theater near downtown and produce his own show, just so he could do stand-up comedy. “Comedy is subjective, everyone has a different humor. There are different genres of standup. I do storytelling. I talk about what is going on in my life and when people are leaving the show, I want them (for example) to say, ‘That happened to my mom.’” –Penny Levin Treasure Island, 7:30 & 10 p.m. June 8, starting at $58.95 plus tax and fee. 702.894.7722

Continuing to Defy Expectations The outlandish and imaginative Absinthe has some big reasons to celebrate these days. The adults-only, circus-themed variety show created by Spiegelworld took up residency in the big white tent in front of Caesars Palace seven years ago. In that span, Absinthe has evolved to one of the Strip’s must-see productions with comedy, dance, acrobatics, burlesque and other awe-inspiring acts that defy common description. Host The Gazillionaire seems more raunchy and rowdy with every show, while assistant Wanda
Widdles sometimes steals the spotlight with an even more offensive sense of humor. Other acclaimed performers that get the show rolling are Maxim, who builds a tower of ready-totopple chairs; the dangerously fast roller skating brother-sister duo Billy and Emily England, who appeared last year on America’s Got Talent; talented twin tap dancers Sean and John Scott; an aerial expert David O’mer; and, the Green Fairy, a seductive singer who heats up the Spiegeltent with a single smile. –Brock Radke

Two Too Hot Get ready to get roasted! What’s better than the head judge of Roast Battle bringing the heat to an audience by himself? That would be when “The Roastmaster General” brings an equally hard-hitting comedian with him to destroy those in attendance. The Roastmaster is Jeff Ross, pictured, a man who has made his career off burning crowds on the spot with his verbal repartee. His cohort in this expedition this time is Dave Attell, who, while famous in the world of standup comedy, doesn’t get nearly enough recognition for his influence on the game. Attell mixes a cutting style with absurdity, á la this line from his special Skanks for the Memories: “Remember when you’re young and you think your dad is Superman? And then you grow up and realize he’s just a drunk who wears a cape.” That take-no-prisoners attitude can also be found in performances by Ross, who, literally, took no prisoners when he roasted a bunch of

Relatable Comedy Fans of Chelsea Lately will no doubt be excited to hear that one of her regular contributors, the very funny stand-up comic John Caparulo, is now sharing his insights at a new show at Harrah’s. Caparulo, a father of two and now a Las Vegas resident, takes aim at the absurdities of everyday life—everything from his impression of an airport employee (picture someone typing endlessly on an invisible computer keyboard, looking into space but never directly at the customer)
to his argument on how hunting isn’t really a “sport.” (Because, ya know, both sides have to agree it’s a sport, right?) Despite his often salty language, Caparulo conveys a genuine sweetness when talking about his family, his dogs, and the other trappings of married life. If you’re married, you’ll see plenty of your life in his routine. –Ken Miller

It’s Time to Deal
Tournaments often generate unexpected excitement Imagine a rec league basketball player taking on LeBron James in a one-on-one matchup. Now imagine the rec leaguer having a chance to pocket a bunch of cash by doing the unthinkable and defeating King James. Now imagine the unthinkable actually occurring. Well, you can’t imagine it, because it wouldn’t happen in a million years. Which is precisely what makes the annual World Series of Poker so appealing: Novices frequently get the chance to square off against pros—and when the cards fall just right, the novices can actually push the pros off the table. This explains why the World Series of Poker’s participant numbers continue to skyrocket. Last
spring, a record 120,995 players representing 111 countries—more than half the countries on the planet—descended on the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino for a poker palooza that spanned six weeks (and two seasons). Those players competed in 74 events that offered 16,814 payouts totaling more than $230 million. The biggest prize went to New Jersey resident Scott Blumstein, who entered the $10,000 nolimit Main Event with $8,206 in career WSOP earnings—and departed with another $8.15 million after being the last one standing in a field of 7,221 entrants. This year’s Main Event is scheduled for July 2-4, but before then, countless poker hands will
be dealt in three Rio ballrooms, where competitors of varying skill levels will vie for coveted WSOP bracelets in 78 events. Don’t have the bankroll (or guts) to enter one of those events but still want to be part of the action? You’re in luck, as spectators 21 and older are invited to take in everything from the opening hand of a $365 pot-limit Omaha tournament to the final table at the $10,000 Seven Card Stud championship. No, you won’t win any money being a railbird, but you won’t lose any either, as daily admission is absolutely free. –Matt Jacob Rio, times and buy-ins vary, through July 17. wsop.com/2018

Frolicking Day and Night
Keep the party fueled before sunset and after For nightlife juggernaut Victor Drai, famed in Las Vegas for building one of the city’s first after-hours clubs nearly two decades ago (the club still operates underground at The Cromwell), constructing the new Drai’s Nightclub and Beachclub was about bigger and better. And higher. As in 11 stories higher. After the rooftop venue opened over Memorial Day Weekend 2014, it didn’t take long to garner praise, as the huge space—65,000 square feet— somehow accomplished the task of retaining an intimate vibe. Clubgoers have also reaped the rewards of partying in truly impressive surroundings with unobstructed views of the Vegas Strip. With the warm weather is full effect, sunbathers and partiers unite for the dayclub. Experience

Book a slice of luxury inside one of Drai’s 30 pimped-out cabanas and bungalows, or catch some rays on one of 40 daybeds. Drai’s Beachclub is also a hot spot to grab lunch for both visitors and locals alike, with a mouthwatering menu of upscale eats and drinks, like Thai chicken and barbecue chicken artisan flatbreads; sweet and savory chicken and waffles; and flavor-filled garbage fries packed with grilled onions, mushrooms, jalapenos, Swiss and cheddar cheeses and spicy mayo sauce. On the lighter side, but still packing tons of flavor,
are salads that include Asian chopped, Southwest and mixed greens. When it comes to nightlife, Drai’s has welcomed live performances by the hottest and most in-demand hip-hop artists. To date, the list of performers on that stage reads like a who’s who in the industry: Trey Songz, Chris Brown, Meek Mill, G-Eazy, Nelly, Big Sean, Rae Sremmurd and more.

Hell’s Kitchen brings blue Fiery Scot Gordon Ramsay has transfixed TV viewers for more than a decade with his award-winning competitive cooking show Hell’s Kitchen.

The high-ceiling dining room offers both full-height views of the adjacent Strip and sightlines into the showcase kitchen where chefs and cooks, adorned in red and blue bandanas, immerse
themselves in a flurry, drawing diners into the show. Savory beef Wellingtons, made famous from the show and already a favorite, amass on the expediting line alongside other Ramsay classics such as creamy lobster risotto and smoky pan-seared scallops. And Hell’s Kitchen doesn’t disappoint fans on those fronts.

Notes From Gordon
But the venue further showcases the breadth of Ramsay’s culinary talents, unsurprising considering the chef has already established a burgeoning empire elsewhere on the Strip. With offerings ranging from high-end steakhouse fare and innovative pub food to more casual offerings such as fish and chips and burgers, the celebrity chef has demonstrated a history of diversity which continues with Hell’s Kitchen. Start your meal with a cocktail, such as the light refreshing Notes From Gordon. Each comes with a slip of paper with a saying Ramsay has been known to utter, such as “My grandma can do better than that and she's dead.” Ramsay’s tuna tartare is a crisp starter, adorned with pickled Fresno chilies delivering a hint of heat amid the sharpness of soy chili vinaigrette. Wagyu meatballs and polenta croutons lie beneath layers of tangy, slow-roasted tomato sauce and melted Parmesan cheese. The meatballs are juicy while the croutons offer a welcome surprise with a contrast in firmness. Equally as irresistible is the scampi prawn flambé whose fiery, tableside presentation is apropos for a dining room decorated in flames and pitchforks. It’s an instant Instagram star. A study in contrast to the prawns, the smoked golden beets waft with subtle smokiness, which can’t be adequately captured on video. Arriving under a dome, the root vegetables balance a tart Greek yogurt and sweet
white balsamic vinaigrette. A heartier offering is the roasted rack of lamb, delivering exotic African and Indian flavors from across the globe in a sharp harissa lamb jus and vadouvan carrots. More familiar is the toothsome braised short rib, whose crisp exterior gives way to a fork-tender center. Served atop a buttery polenta, it’s a homey dish reminiscent of something Grandma may make if she was a Michelin-starred chef. Pair this with a truly American side of baked macaroni and cheese. The Scotsman’s rendition
is a destination dish, with smoked gouda and cheddar laced with crisped prosciutto. For dessert, Ramsay’s sticky toffee pudding awaits. Each of his Vegas venues has its own twist on the English classic, and at Hell’s Kitchen the decadent dessert is paired with speculoos ice cream, a cinnamon-tinged shortbread cookie made famous stateside by Trader Joe’s cookie butter. Among a menu sprinkled with new dishes, it’s a comfort to end with a classic.

cheers getting that job, where somebody paid for that pizza … I fell in love with it. I didn’t know what was going to happen. You know when you fall in love with something, you’re kinda struck. It’s like a bolt of lightning… What led you to open in Vegas? I opened Tony’s Pizza Napoletana (in 2009); after 17 years of being with my brother, I finally got my store. And it was one of those like, “Wow, he’s grown like crazy.” Well, it took me 17 years to get one. I opened up Slice House, Capo’s, Pizza Rock Sacramento. … We were asked to look at downtown Vegas. We went and looked at it, and we believed in it. We believed that downtown needed great pizza. ... It’s my secondbusiest restaurant (Pizza Rock downtown). Can you touch on your plans for the future? I want to end up on the Strip (but) I wanted to prove to the neighborhoods, that we could do it there and then get one on the Strip. We had some hotels off the Strip come to us that we said no to. But we really want to end up on the Strip … What’s really interesting about Pizza Rock is the multiple styles—you have transplants from everywhere in Las Vegas. The model worked great in San Francisco, because if you were from New Haven or New York or Chicago and you liked cracker-thin or maybe a New Yorker-style pizza or a 20-inch slice, Pizza Rock is a one-stop shop. The model is perfect for Vegas.
Tony Gemignani
Pizza Rock owner keeps cooking in Vegas Pizza guru and restaurateur Tony Gemignani opened his first Vegas location downtown, and today, he and his partners run two Pizza Rocks and a Slice House in the Las Vegas valley (downtown and at Green Valley Ranch), with more planned. Las Vegas Magazine’s Nina King caught up with him recently to talk about his inspiration and the future. You started out in your brother’s restaurant? Yes, in 1991 I got into the pizza business. I was 17 going on 18, I just graduated high school, all my friends went to college, close friends, and I was kind of stuck in my hometown … So my
26 6.3.18 LasVegasMagazine.com
brother was in the middle of building and he said, “Hey, why don’t you come do this with me?” And I became a manager very quick… What made you decide food was going to be your path? It’s funny, I always loved to cook. Watching my mom cook was a big part of my life. I grew up on a farm; we lived with my grandfather. My grandfather was a big Italian farmer, we had about 35 acres. … In our back yard, we had everything; we had basil, tomatoes, squash, orange trees, nectarines, you just name it … So cooking and fresh ingredients were a staple, but doing it for real,
What’s new on your plate? There’s a new style we’re going to introduce that is unique … a blend of black rice flour blended into a dough, that is opposite of what I teach … You’ll see a limited edition of these pizzas around. Getting my son to make pizzas; he’s three and a half, turning four. … I kind of do a cooking and acrobatic show. Now, my son’s kind of right behind me tossing pizzas in a very comical, clumsy kind of way… What’s your favorite pizza? That’s like asking a dad who’s his favorite son. I love our New Haven-style New Yorker. It’s one of my favorites on the menu, it’s actually one of everyone’s favorites. Our Detroit is getting a lot of momentum here; it’s a bit of a belly-buster though, it’s rich and definitely that Midwest, substance-type food. Those are two I love. Margherita’s always a go-to for anything; that’s easy.

The Pink Flamingo
Jackie Liptak
Lead wildlife specialist thinks pink Here’s something you don’t hear every day: “I am the flamingo whisperer,” Jackie Liptak says. Well, as the lead wildlife specialist at, where else, the Flamingo, she does work with flamingos as well as other wildlife. Liptak has worked at the certified backyard habitat for almost 11 years. Before that, she worked with Mandalay Bay’s Shark Reef, and interned as a zookeeper at the Cincinnati Zoo in her hometown state of Ohio. In college, she studied biology and earned a bachelor of science and education from Youngstown State University. And Liptak says she always had a passion for animals growing up. Making the move to Las Vegas was fate, she says. Liptak’s also an artist, and when she was

young, one of her favorite things to paint was flamingos—and the first hotel she ever stayed at when she visited Vegas was the Flamingo. Out of all the residents at the habitat, which includes exotic birds, turtles, ducks and large fish, her favorite are the flamingos. “They all have their own personalities,” she says. “Working with them, I can get very close with them. Working with all these animals, you develop a bond, but I love our flamingos very much.” It’s Liptak’s job to keep all of the animals happy and healthy. She monitors their diets, and keeps up on animal observation and exhibit maintenance. “I’ve been here almost 11 years and I’ve never felt like I had to work,” she says. “I want to be at work, every day.” –Kiko Miyasato
Before stopping by the Wildlife Habitat, stop by the Flamingo’s other hidden gem, the GO Pool and order The Pink Flamingo. This drink is sure to get you flapping your wings with its delicious blend of Absolut vodka, fresh strawberry purée and lemonade. For a kitschy touch, it’s garnished with signature pink flamingo gummy candies. Bring your cocktail along to one of Liptack’s two daily talks and feedings (8:30 a.m. and 2 p.m.) where she educates guests, shares stories about the animals that reside in the lush surroundings and can help answer questions and curiosities about the habitat and its residents. –KM

Christian Morrow For House of Luxury Director Christian Morrow, watching brands evolve is more than a spectator sport; it’s a passion he gets involved in. He recently chatted with Las Vegas Magazine’s Sarah Feldberg. What is the House of Luxury? The House of Luxury on one side is a public relations agency that works with luxury brands. We work predominantly with fine jewelry brands. The other side is business development. As much as we’re about generating the brand, we’re also about delivering bums on seats, or actual sales. ... You call upon us, and we will do everything from the ground up. What are you doing at the Couture Show in Las Vegas? We’re bringing our Wild Things London initiative, where we’ll amalgamate four of the most design-driven and interesting brands that we have in our portfolio at present. These are brands that are very well established in other territories, but haven’t yet really broken into the U.S. What are the brands you’re bringing? We’ve got a brand called Anil Arjandas. His family has been in the jewelry industry quite a few generations. Then we have By Stolie, a relatively new brand coming from Ilona Stolie, a Russian socialite. Then you’ve got Ruwaya by the creative director for Amwaj, a very well-established jeweler in the Middle East. We also have Alessa. This one’s flying off the shelves at the moment. There’s kind of this Wonder Woman element to the Amara collection. What are trends you’re excited about? Men’s jewelry is something that there isn’t enough of, and it’s not being necessarily done brilliantly. I think men are becoming more interested in not just wearing a watch. They want to wear the rings; they want to wear the bracelets.

Lasting Influence Celine Dion reached a new level of superstardom in 2017, a year that found her emerging from bereavement to greet the public as a new independent woman. Her rendition of “My Heart Will Go On” at 2017’s Billboard Music Awards had critics buzzing as they composed year-end highlight lists, and retrospectives of Titanic’s 20th
anniversary led to a newfound respect. She ended the year recording material in Vegas at the Palms with producer Stephan Moccio, the co-writer of her hit “A New Day Has Come.” Dion also returned to her soundtrack roots last year by recording “How Does a Moment Last Forever” for Disney’s live-action Beauty and the Beast, 16 years after her duet with
Peabo Bryson on the theme from Disney’s animated version. This year, she contributed the catchy ballad “Ashes” to the soundtrack for Deadpool 2 and doubled down by appearing with the titular superhero in an uproarious music video. She’s back onstage this week to give all her fans the amazing live performance she’s known for. –Las Vegas Magazine Staff

Open Your Eyes Even if he had never recorded any music of his own, Alan Parsons would deserve a place in rock history for his part in creating some of the greatest albums of all time: Parsons worked as an engineer on The Beatles’ Abbey Road and Let It Be, and on Pink Floyd’s Atom Heart Mother and The Dark Side of the Moon, helping craft the sounds of those monumentally important and influential works. He was only 19 when he worked on Abbey Road, with a substantial career ahead of him both as leader of The Alan Parsons Project and as a solo artist. Along with longtime collaborator Eric Woolfson, Parsons released 10 studio albums with The Alan Parsons Project, a collective with varying line-ups featuring dozens of different musicians, anchored by Parsons and Woolfson’s songwriting, arranging and production. Parsons’ current tour celebrates the 35th anniversary of the Eye in the Sky album, but his sets include songs from throughout his career, which has more than lived up to its legendary beginnings. –Josh Bell
Singular and Solo
In 2016, just one day after performing his final show as the frontman for Panda, one of the biggest rock bands in Mexico, singer-songwriter José Madero launched his solo career with the release of his first single, “Lunes 28.” Panda, which debuted in 2000 and was part of a movement of rock bands from the Mexican city of Monterrey, drew comparisons to American bands like Green Day, but Madero’s solo music leans more toward pop, and has helped him build a growing international fan base. In just two years, he’s put out three solo albums, including Alba, which was released this past March. Madero has described Alba as “an experimental album,” with an overarching concept exploring the theme of nostalgia. Although Madero doesn’t plan to release any singles from the album, he’s called it “a gift” to his fans. –JB House of Blues at Mandalay Bay, 7 p.m. June 9, starting at $35 plus tax and fee, 18+. 800.745.3000 Ticketmaster blink-182 photo by Willie T, The Cult photo by Tim Cadiente, Mariah Carey photo by Charles Sykes/Invision/AP, Bruno Mars photo by Kai Z Feng, Alan Parsons photo by Girish Menon/shutterstock.com, Shania Twain photo by Brian Bowen Smith
Kesha and Macklemore join forces for summer tour By MATT KELEMEN
When singer-songwriter Kesha was approached by DJ/producer Ryan Lewis with the raw track that became her hit single “Praying,” the prospect of a co-headlining tour with his collaborator Macklemore was not likely foremost on her mind. The singer was preparing to work on the songs that would become her 2017 album Rainbow when Lewis contacted her management about working together. Lewis had sketched out the track during Macklemore & Ryan Lewis’ 2016 This Unruly Mess I’ve Made Tour, before the longtime friends went on Tour hiatus as a duo in order to explore solo paths and grow as artists. It wouldn’t be long

before both Lewis’ and Macklemore’s paths led to Kesha. Kesha was refocusing creatively after a bitter, heavily publicized court battle with former producer Dr. Luke had drained her energy and left her with less of an appetite for party anthems such as her 2010 breakout hit “Tik Tok.” Newly empowered after freeing herself from contractually having to
The result, “Good Old Days,” became the third single from Macklemore’s solo effort Gemini, which was released in September. Macklemore kicked off a tour as a solo artist, and released the songs “Glorious” and “Marmalade” as singles that fall. The album reached No. 2, matching the success of Macklemore & Ryan Lewis’ 2012 debut album The Heist. “Praying” became the lead single for Kesha’s album Rainbow, which was released a month prior to Gemini. The album also features the cathartic “Learn to Let Go,” and assertive “Woman,” which was brassed up by the Dap-King Horns. Both Eagles of Death Metal and Dolly Parton also guested on Rainbow, with the latter adding her vocals to “Old Flames (Can’t Hold a Candle to You)”, a song written by Kesha’s mother, Pebe Sebert, that was previously a No. 1 country hit for Parton in 1980.

Penn & Teller can make an elephant disappear, a chicken vanish, a ball and hoop dance. They will bring audience members onstage and assign them surnames like Snowden, Comey and Assange during tricks involving passwords that seem impossible to figure out. They come in discomfortingly close contact with bullets and sharp objects. They are masters of misdirection who constantly change up their show with new material, and who recently celebrated their silver anniversary as Las Vegas headliners, starring in one of the longest continuously running production on or near the Strip. After 43 years, they show no signs of slowing down, and although the show changes, the chemistry and dynamic between the longtime friends has remained constant. Penn Jillette is the taller, brash one who addresses the audience and verbally guides them through the show. Teller
communicates with pantomimed grace as he gets maximum mileage out of simple sleight-ofhand segments, or partners with Penn for the ingenuous and sometimes elaborate tricks that seem to come from an endless well of inspiration. Penn & Teller’s debut headlining performance took place at Bally’s on Jan. 14, 1993, and the two opened at the Rio for the first time Jan. 5, 2001. The two had began exclusively performing with each other in 1981, having made their debut at a Renaissance festival in Minnesota in August of 1975. Both were highly intelligent skeptics interested in magic, with Penn finding particular inspiration

in the Amazing Randi, who presented himself as an entertainer of deception rather than a modern-day sorcerer. Teller taught Latin, and adopted his silent persona in reaction to overtalkative magicians and out of respect for the audience, feeling they should be able to tell themselves the story of the bits rather than have it explained to them. His stage approach complimented Penn’s, and by the mid ’80s they were appearing in their own Off-Broadway production and on TV. They toured constantly, proving their show to be durable, their inspiration inexhaustible. Today, Penn is a bestselling author, Teller produces Shakespeare in his spare time, and both have hosted the magic competition series Penn & Teller: Fool Us since 2011. They are both still passionate about performance, however, and there is nothing more they enjoy than conceiving, constructing, perfecting and performing a new bit. Their team constantly develops whatever they’re thinking of. “My very favorite thing to do, maybe even more than performance, is those weekly sessions where we work on new material,” Teller told Las Vegas Magazine in 2016. “We have the greatest crew imaginable, so between our weekly sessions, the crew’s working its ass off.” It’s practically impossible to see the same show twice by attending
annually, but while the production changes, the inspiration remains. That’s no illusion, or deception, but it’s why a pair of skeptics keeps filling the Rio theater. Penn & Teller perform every show like it’s the first one, or the last one, as if by magic.

His devotion to

local growers is also reflected in his farmer’s market cocktails, including Beets by Roy using beet juice and mescal. In speaking of spirits, Ellamar specializes in bottled cocktails, meaning he prebottles and ages them slightly before serving, allowing you to pour and savor every Manhattan, Negroni and martini as you like throughout the meal.
Entertainment Dining Nightlife Gaming Shopping Health & Beauty Attractions Resources Marketplace
Meat lovers, rejoice: There’s something for everyone here, from a flavor-packed fisherman’s stew (fish and shellfish in a tomato broth) to spice rubbed lamb chops. And vegetarians will find plenty to love on Ellamar’s menu. The braised eggplant and cockscomb pasta dishes are so tasty they might have you reconsidering that whole meat thing. –Ken Miller

Sizzle Time There are certain places that instill a sense of confidence; you just know that your money will be well spent. And the Las Vegas outpost of Ruth’s Chris Steak House (Harrah’s, 702.693.6000) may be the perfect example. For a dash of color, the crab stack appetizer is just begging to be Instagrammed, a sweet and light combo of lump blue crab, avocado, mango and cucumber. From meat to fish, you cannot go wrong here: The bone-in filet is well-marbled perfection, and the 40-ounce tomahawk ribeye will have all eyes darting to your table; the stuffed chicken breast is served on the bone, drizzled with lemon butter; the lamb chops are succulent delights marinated overnight; and the Chilean sea bass is served with sweet potato and pineapple hash. What a flavor combo—you’ll be done with this dish before you even realize it. –Ken Miller
