Special Events
CELEBRATE JULY 4th WITH VERTICAL HORIZON |
| Celebrate
the 4th of July at Mandalay Bay Beach with Vertical Horizon
and MIX 94.1-FM! Mandalay Bay Beach offers one of the most unique
outdoor concert stages in the country, set amidst the world-famous
resort’s 11-acre beach and lagoon.
From
Vertical Horizon’s early beginnings playing coffeehouses in
Washington, D.C., the band has continuously stretched itself both
musically and otherwise. As Georgetown University undergrads, Keith
Kane and Matt Scannell discovered kindred musical spirits in one
another and solidified their line-up with drummer Ed Toth and bassist
Sean Hurley, and signed with RCA in 1998. Their double-platinum-selling
album, Everything You Want, yielded four singles including “We
Are,” “You’re a God,” “Best I Ever
Had” and the title track “Everything You Want,”
which won a Radio Music Award and two Billboard Music Awards while
the band earned a Billboard Music Video Award for Best New Artist
Modern Rock Video for “You’re a God.” Their most
recent album, GO, offers a sublime unity of thought and melody.
Tracks like “Forever” and “Inside,” with
their resonant string sections, take Vertical Horizon to previously
unexplored musical terrain.
Tickets
are priced at $35, not including applicable taxes and service charges.
A pre-concert barbeque at Border Grill begins at 6 p.m. for an additional
charge and includes great food, drink specials and prize giveaways.
The concert is scheduled to begin at 9 p.m. and is followed by a
fireworks show at 10:30 p.m. To charge by phone, call the Mandalay
Bay Box Office at 702-632-7580 or Ticketmaster at 702-474-4000,

KATT
WILLIAMS PERFORMING AT THE PEARL
Comedian
Katt Williams brings his quick witted antics to
The Pearl at the Palms on Friday, July 4 and Saturday, July 5 as
part of the It’s Pimpin’, Pimpin’ Tour.
Williams
is recognized as one of the hottest comedians in the country today
making his mark in stand-up, as well as on the big screen. In 2008,
Williams appears in the major motion picture First Sunday alongside
Ice Cube and Tracy Morgan, in addition to traveling across the U.S.
with the launch of the It’s Pimpin’, Pimpin’ Tour.
Last year, Williams’ Pimp Chronicles Tour was the second highest
grossing comedy act in the country, as he sold out theaters in each
major market. Williams was also asked to perform at Radio City Music
Hall, a feat only a short list of comedians has accomplished, selling
out two consecutive days at the historic venue.
Tickets
are $65 and $85, plus any additional service fees. Please visit
any Ticketmaster location, call 702-474-4000 or visit www.ticketmaster.com
