WELCOME TO Kimo’s Vegas ... The Player’s Edge!
WHAT DOES AN iconic rock star do when he’s in Vegas for a concert? If you’re Steven Tyler, you’d be dining at Simon’s, Palms Place and Little Buddha, and checking out Cirque du Soleil’s Beatles tribute LOVE and O. Aerosmith drummer Joey Kramer was spocked buying a $1,000 hand-painted crystal-studded shirt (I always wondered who bought those things).
THE BETTE MIDLER VIP package includes front row center tickets to The Showgirl Must Go On, VIP escort, two drink vouchers and a meet-n-greet with the Divine Miss M (commemorative photo included). The “Smug Mutha” package is available from Aug. 11 to Sept. 6 and will ding your Black Amex $1,000 per person.
CROSBY, STILLS & NASH concertize at the M Resort’s Villaggio Del Sole Entertainment Piazza Sept. 26 at 8:30 p.m. On Oct. 3, another local fave, Journey, will take the stage at 8 p.m.
