Monday Nights in #Vegas, THE place to be! 2 Years of Standing Room Only last week 2 sets of TV producers!
That’s right, the secret is out. Who knew that last Monday night would end with even more notoriety. The Vegas Underground is attracting attention around the country, and around the world. Yes, last week TV production crews from LA and Dallas flew in to catch the show, and they had a ball!
Why not, it’s music and comedy in the Classic Vegas style that MADE Las Vegas ‘The Entertainment Capital of the World’. Our Tap House regulars have known it all along, and it’s why they’ve packed the room week after week.
We’ve become known as ‘The Rat Pack of the Next Generation’. Entertainers performing for other entertainers, introducing new talents in town, impressionists, visiting entertainers, and celebrities that drop in. You never know who will show up or what will happen…. unless you’re there!
Others have tried to imitate our style, and while it’s just not quite the same, it makes us proud that we’ve brought so much attention to live performance in Las Vegas. That was our goal.
BUT, there’s only one, and the only, the original…

HELP OUR FRIEND NICOLAS CAGE! Sign the petition to help Nic bring more filmmakers and jobs to Nevada. #Vegas
Nicolas has supported our efforts to promote live entertainment in Las Vegas, and many of our community charity events. Now Nic wants to bring movie industry jobs to the state and he needs our help.
Filmmakers have bypassed our state, opting to go to other states that offer incentives. It costs millions to make a movie, but there are still the constraints of a budget. We are letting those millions in investment and paychecks escape our local economy. The TV show ‘Vegas’ is shot in New Mexico and another movie about Las Vegas to be shot in North Carolina for just that reason.
So let’s help Nic bring movie industry jobs and help to diversify our economy, by signing the online petition!
