Having already established itself as an artistic force in Downtown Las Vegas, Secret Walls (considered the “Fight Club” of the underground art scene), will make their debut performance at the Downtown Grand with an epic street battle that will result in each of the artists work being installed on the property’s 3rd Street entrance. Inspired by Marvel comics and the graffiti art scene, the evening’s main attraction will be a clash of creative minds, as two Secret Walls artists will be given 90 minutes to leave their inventive impression on the property as they go toe to toe under the 3rd street lights for an all out battle of expressive domination.
While the Secret Walls artists are visually stimulating the minds of all those that have gathered, some of the most beloved food trucks in the city will be satisfying their hunger by serving up their favorite curb side eats. These mobile hunger heroes will include; Truk-N-Yaki, Stripchezze, The Cookie Bar, Cousins Maine Lobster and Waffle Love. Parked and ready to cater to the hungry masses, the trucks will be joined by craft beer offerings from the property’s Freedom Beat, as well as drink specials found throughout the property.
In addition to the art and food offerings, a Secret Walls DJ and MC will keep the vibe fresh, while the Downtown Grand will bring the party to the street with games such as Ping Pong, corn hole, foosball, and Jenga. “Downtown Las Vegas has a thriving art and culinary scene, and we are excited to activate 3rd Street as yet another great destination for locals and tourists to experience the best thatDowntown Las Vegas has to offer,” notes Downtown Grand general manager, Kevin Glass. “The setting here is amazing as you are surrounded by our two hotel towers, the great vintage Downtown Las Vegas skyline and a streetscape that cannot be found anywhere else in the city.

Berger & Son Fine Jewelers Begins Construction on New Location to Debut in December Berger & Son releases new store renderings and visuals of the store expansion
located inside Fashion Show
Berger & Son Fine Jewelers, a premier destination for one-of-a-kind fine jewelry and timepieces, began construction on a new location that’s more than double in size of the existing store. As the longest-running independent retailer in Fashion Show Las Vegas, owner and designer Stuart Berger has earned industry-wide recognition and become a successful local business despite recessions, mall buyouts and big chain competition. But what’s most exciting is Berger’s newest venture – a new location debuting in December with an extensive new line of jewelry, timepieces, and services.
Through the years, Berger & Son has maintained a strong local and tourist following. This success has allowed Berger to expand, which will offer customers more selection, additional luxury timepiece brands and a larger inventory of fine jewelry. New brands that will be incorporated into the new location include Lana Jewelry, Scott Kay, KC Designs, Movado and more.
The new location will be located just steps inside the front doors of the Fashion Show mall on Las Vegas Blvd. (The Strip). Expanding its retail space from 1,000 square feet in the current location to more than double the size at 2,500 square feet, the new store will feature a sleek and modern architectural design that will provide a fashion forward destination for shoppers searching for upscale, high fashion jewelry. Inspired by an ornate chandelier that will appear in the middle of the store, the color schematic includes white, cream, light grey and marble. This unique, cutting-edge store will raise the bar for competition by featuring an exclusive VIP parlor with private service for jewelry design consultations. In addition, Berger & Son will now feature a full time on-premise jeweler and watchmaker for custom designs, repairs and appraisals.
To handle the architectural and interior design, Berger & Son has appointed renowned jewelry store designer Ron Harris with Watt International Design Group, an internationally recognized retail design firm that has designed such award-winning properties as Goldsmiths in the UK, Charm Diamond Centres and The Vault in Canada. Harris plans to enhance Berger & Son’s brand presence with a retail concept that will drive growth, improve visual merchandising and increase the quantity of in-store displays, offering a superior customer experience. The new store is scheduled to open during the first week of December, just in time for the holiday shopping season.

HARD ROCK HOTEL & CASINO LAS VEGAS CLOSED ICONIC CENTER BAR, JUNE 28
Plans for a new bar concept as part of a larger casino remodel officially announced
Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Las Vegas bid farewell to the original and infamous Center Bar in true rock ‘n’ roll fashion on Sunday, June 28. The commemorative event signaled the end of an era for the property, but plans for a new bar concept were officially announced to open this fall as part of a larger casino remodel.
Locals and visitors alike came together to say goodbye to Center Bar as the “Final Toast” party kicked off at 7 p.m. Day one employees were behind the bar serving guests 1995-themed cocktails including “Surfer on Acid,” “Purple Hooter,” “Scooby Snack,” “Red Headed Slut” and “Cosmopolitan Shot” in honor of the year it opened. Throughout the evening, attendees were encouraged to leave their mark on the original Center Bar by signing the walls, floors and stairs. Stories were told all over the interior and exterior of the venue from people who had met celebrities such as Guns N’ Roses’ frontman Axl Rose and guitarist DJ Ashba there, how they met their husbands and wives there, how they learned life lessons there and so much more. Mötley Crüe’s lead singer Vince Neil also showed up to the event to say goodbye to a piece of Las Vegas history and leave his own mark on the side of the bar.
Shortly before 10 p.m., Hard Rock Hotel’s Assistant General Manager Gary Scott welcomed celebrity columnist Robin Leach on stage to give the final toast. Leach discussed the impact Center Bar had on casino floors throughout the city, told his own Center Bar story and encouraged everyone to raise their glasses for last time at trendsetting hub. He then led the crowd with a countdown and flipped the Center Bar power switch off, signaling the official close of a Las Vegas icon.
Center Bar became known for its panoramic views of Hard Rock Hotel’s casino floor, nonstop parties and as the trailblazer for center bars all around Las Vegas when it opened in 1995. It truly redefined the way gaming executives viewed their casino floors – nestled in the heart of tables and slot machines, the trendsetting bar created an infectious energy that other gaming companies adopted. Through its success, Center Bar was inducted into Vegas Seven’s Las Vegas Bar Hall of Fame in 2014, was voted “Best Place to People Watch” in the Best Dining & Nightlife Awards by the readers of Casino Player magazine in 2013, among many other recognitions.

OBJECTIVES: The objectives of Toys for Tots are to help less fortunate children throughout the United States experience the joy of Christmas; to play an active role in the development of one of our nation’s most valuable resources – our children; to unite all members of local communities in a common cause for three months each year during the annual toy collection and distribution campaign; and to contribute to better communities in the future.
ACTIVITIES: The principal Toys for Tots activity which takes place each year is the collection and distribution of toys in the communities in which a Marine Corps Reserve Unit is located. In communities without a Reserve Unit, the campaign can be conducted by a Marine Corps League Detachment or group of men and women, generally veteran Marines, authorized by Marine Toys for Tots Foundation to conduct a local Toys for Tots campaign. Local Toys for Tots Campaign Coordinators conduct an array of activities throughout the year, which include golf tournaments, foot races, bicycle races and other voluntary events designed to increase interest in Toys for Tots, and concurrently generate toys and monetary donations.

Papa Roach Over the course of almost two decades California band Papa Roach has released an impressively diverse string of Gold, Platinum and Multi-Platinum records, starting with 2000’s Infest (featuring their breakout single “Last Resort”) through 2009’s top 10 albumMetamorphosis. In that time, Papa Roach has racked up dozens of hits, including “She Loves Me Not,” “Getting Away with Murder,” “Scars,” “…To Be Loved,” “Forever,” “Lifeline” and “Kick in the Teeth.”
In October of 2012 Papa Roach released The Connection, marking the band’s seventh album and first full-length studio record for Eleven Seven Music. The Connection is a remarkably modern record that both solidifies the hard rock group’s signature sound – big choruses, loud guitars, raw introspection – while sonically taking a great leap ahead.
Blues Traveler Over the course of their illustrious career, Blues Traveler have sold more than 10 million combined units worldwide, played over 2,000 live shows in front of more than 30 million people, and, in “Run-Around,” had the longest-charting radio single in Billboard history, which earned them a Grammy® for Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals. Blues Traveler has released a total of nine studio albums, four of which have gone gold, three platinum and one six-times platinum. Their movie credits include Blues Brothers 2000, Kingpin, Wildflowers and others. A television favorite, they have been featured on Saturday Night Live, Austin City Limits, VH1’s Behind the Music and they hold the record for the most appearances of any artist on The Late Show with David Letterman.
Loverboy For more than 30 years, Loverboy has been “Working for the Weekend” and on weekends, delighting audiences around the world since forming in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. With their trademark red leather pants, bandanas, big rock sound and high-energy live shows, Loverboy has sold more than 10 million albums, earning four multi-platinum plaques, including the four-million-selling Get Lucky, and a trio of double-platinum releases in their self-titled 1980 debut, 1983’s Keep It Up and 1985’s Lovin’ Every Minute Of It. Their string of hits, in addition to the anthem “Working for the Weekend,” includes arena rock staples “Lovin’ Every Minute of It,” “This Could Be the Night,” “Hot Girls in Love,” “Heaven In Your Eyes,” “Turn Me Loose,” “When It’s Over” and “Queen of the Broken Hearts.”
Vince Neil International superstar, accomplished businessman and heartfelt philanthropist Vince Neil came to exemplify all things rock and roll: the sound, the success, the look and the outrageous lifestyle. Vince’s unmistakable voice leads some of the greatest rock songs of this generation including “Shout At The Devil,” “Girls, Girls, Girls,” “Dr. Feelgood,” “Kickstart My Heart,” and “Same Ol Situation.”
In addition to selling 80 million records around the world as the frontman for Mötley Crüe, Vince Neil also began his career as a solo artist in 1993. Neil’s Top 200 Billboard albums, Exposed (which reached number 13 on The Billboard 200 albums chart) and Carved In Stonehave spurred the hits “You’re Invited (But Your Friend Can’t Come),” “Can’t Have Your Cake” and “Sister Of Pain.” Fifteen years after his last solo album, Vince Neil released Tattoos & Tequila on June 22, 2010, followed by his book of the same title later that fall. This album is a compilation of genre defining hits that is undoubtedly an updated rock lifestyle staple. Neil’s refreshed collection of classics consists of nine handpicked, influential covers, as well as two new tracks.
With one loafer in the world of business and a steel toe boot heavily planted in rock n’ roll, Vince Neil is the epitome of a modern rock star living the luxury lifestyle continuing to create current music, writing, giving back through his foundation and expanding his brand based on the complete and enviable standard he has attained.
Adelitas Way Las Vegas based American hard rock band Adelitas Way broke into the mainstream in 2009 with their first single “Invincible” off their self-titled debut album. In addition to being featured in the video game Smackdown vs. America Raw 2010, the song made numerous TV appearances including CSI Miami, MTV and served as the official theme song for WWE Superstars on WGN America. With other hit songs including “Sick,” “The Collapse,” “Criticize,” and “Alive” Adelitas Way has performed alongside notable artists such as Shinedown, Papa Roach, Chevelle, Three Days Grace, Guns N’ Roses, Theory of a Deadman, Godsmack, Creed, Staind, Puddle of Mudd, Breaking Benjamin and several more.

Motorhead, the Grammy award winning rock band, and Vince Neil, frontman for Motley Crue, will rock partygoers at Vince Neil’s Girls Girls Girls gentlemen’s club to celebrate the official U.S. launch of Motorheadphones at the Consumer Electronics Show Jan. 8. Motorhead’s Lemmy Kilmister will host an exclusive press conference earlier in the day to unveil the new product and then stay true to his rock roots when he brings the party to Vince Neil’s Girls Girls Girls later that night.
The new brand, Motorheadphones has had unprecedented success throughout Europe prior to making their debut in the United States at the CES Show. Motorheadphones were developed by the hard-rocking, mega-successful metal band Motorhead. Band members wanted to harness the energy of their own music and create a life-style brand of headphones that is unprecedented in sound, capability and performance.
“These new headphones are not like the weak-kneed, lily-livered, tin-pot, skinny sounding little pieces of garbage out on the market today,” said Kilmister. “We designed these headphones to deliver everything louder than anything else and with the sort of range, clarity and TRUE rock reproduction you’d expect from a band of warriors like us.”
Vince Neil’s Girls Girls Girls features some of the most beautiful women on the planet and truly epitomizes sex and roll ‘n’ roll. Rocking entertainment is every night. Sponsored by Vince Neil’s Tatuado Vodka and Tequila
