Stormy Monday at Forty Deuce

The New Weekly Male Burlesque Experience to Debut Monday, March 3rd at Ivan Kane's Forty Deuce inside the Mandalay Bay
Ivan Kane, creator and owner of famed Hollywood/Las Vegas hot spot, Ivan Kane’s Forty Deuce, is once again redefining what is sexy in nightlife by producing the only weekly male burlesque experience in the country to debut Monday, March 3 at 10 p.m. Every Monday night, patrons will see hot, male dancers performing sensual strips at the famed burlesque nightclub.

Ivan Kane’s Stormy Monday begins when patrons walk in the front door and feast their eyes on the Forty Deuce male dancers in the window of the club entrance. The burlesque continues all night as go-go boys, duets and large scale production numbers surround the audience in every corner of the room. It’s Deuce ‘till Dawn as never before, as sexy strips are never more than minutes away. Throughout the night, the Forty Deuce DJs will be on stage, dropping dance grooves to keep the crowd moving at this weekly party!

The show, created, produced and directed by Ivan Kane and choreographed by Tovaris Wilson (who choreographed Ivan Kane’s Royal Jelly, the hit rock ‘n roll burlesque show performing every Thursday night in the Las Vegas venue), will continue Forty Deuce’s tradition of being the gold standard of burlesque.

Hand-selected by Ivan Kane and Tovaris Wilson, the male burlesque dancers are professionals who have worked with various industry titans. This hot, sweaty night will be unlike anything Las Vegas has ever seen, which is what people have come to expect from Ivan Kane.

“I’m always looking to push the envelope and reinvent burlesque again,” explains Ivan Kane. “Forty Deuce will always be known for the ‘classic’ burlesque show that started six years ago in Hollywood and began the burlesque craze, but with the incredible success of the rock n’ roll-themed Royal Jelly, I was looking to do something new… and there’s nothing newer than male burlesque. The show is ridiculously hot!”

Since the club’s inception, Ivan Kane’s Forty Deuce has become wildly successful among movers and shakers and a favorite with celebrities and media members. Ivan Kane’s Forty Deuce is old school, back-alley burlesque with an intimate nightclub vibe. Mr. Kane’s visionary ideas and vanguard approach have put burlesque back on the map for good!

Nightclub Review: rumjungle Nightclub

rumjungle Nightclub - Open Daily - 11:00pm to Late - Google Map - (702) 492-3960 - rumjungle Nightclub's Website

It wasn't very hard to come up with the name for rumjungle Nightclub. First, you'll notice the decor looks pretty much like a jungle. Then, smack dab in the center of the room, you see a HUGE wall of rum. In fact, it's the world's largest rum collection, sitting at 217 different rums. In addition to that, they have the world's largest rum bar at 144 feet long and 19 feet tall.

Everywhere you turn turn in rumjungle, there is something interesting to look at. If you stand in one place, do a 360 turn, you'll see a wall of fire, a wall of water, gogo dancers dancing in what looks to be a birdcage, a HUGE wall of rum, live percussionists, and if you're doing this a certain times in the evening, you'll see aerialists flying through the air.

There is one thing I think they could improve on, and that is their dance floor, as it isn't very big. But who am I to judge. Maybe you aren't there to dance. Maybe you're just there to get wasted on all the rum at your disposal.

Nightclub Review: Mix Lounge

Mix Lounge - Open Daily - 5:00pm to Late; Cover after 10:00pm - Google Map - (702) 632-7777 - Mix Lounge Website

As you ride up the glass elevator to the 64th floor atop THEhotel at Mandalay Bay, anticipation sets in, as you await this unbelievable view everyone has been talking about. Then you step out the door and find yourself gazing upon a 360 view of the Las Vegas Valley and Strip from Mix Lounge's floor to ceiling windows. Nice set up, right? But it's the complete truth.

The intimate, almost 300 capacity room, is decorated in red lighting, with black leather seating. Inside the lounge, it's mostly made up of VIP bottle service seating, but you can sit at one of the bars. But, you didn't come to Mix to hang "inside", you came to be "outside". Stepping out onto the outdoor deck, you find several lounges to sit and a nice area to stand.

Here's a tip, get there early, because as soon as 10:30pm hits, the outdoor lounges are only for VIP reservations only. You can still hang out on the patio area though, there is a nice area for standing.

Mario Barth's Starlight Tattoo Opening at House of Blues

Celebrities from the Entertainment and Cultural Spectrum Celebrate the Most Ambitious Tattoo Studio Venture in History

Notorious illustrated rock stars Dave Navarro and Tommy Lee, Platinum recording artists, Buckcherry, and former Biohazard front man, Evan Seinfeld, are among an eclectic mix of ink-loving luminaries slated to perform at the gala opening of Mario Barth’s Starlight Tattoo at House of Blues® Las Vegas on Saturday, February 16.

That evening, doors will open to a revolutionary new way to visit a tattoo studio. Invited guests will be witness to a night of art, culture, live tattooing and a dose of music mayhem as Buckcherry, Dave Navarro & DJ Skribble, The Spyderz (Seinfeld’s new band) and The Lordz all perform live inside the House of Blues. Tommy Lee & DJ Aero will spin electro house music for guests during the after-party inside the exclusive House of Blues Foundation Room. Other celebrity guests that will be part of the grand opening celebration include Ice-T and Coco, Victoria Gotti and her sons, with more expected to be announced.

The inception of Starlight Tattoo at House of Blues marks the very first time a music venue has joined forces with a tattoo organization. The partnership celebrates two of the most powerful art forms in our culture – music and ink – fusing into one extraordinary location inside the Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino, Las Vegas.

“Tattooing has been my art, business and life force for more than 20 years,” says Mario Barth, Founder and CEO of Starlight Tattoo. “This opening is a dream come true. Starlight Tattoo at House of Blues is more than a studio. I have great reverence for the masters of this ancient art form and this will be reflected in the atmosphere and artifacts exclusive to our shop.”

When patrons enter the doors of Starlight Tattoo at House of Blues, they will be offered the rare opportunity to select three different styles of tattooing – traditional handtool Japanese, traditional handtool Samoan and the modern techniques of Western-style. Tattoo enthusiasts will be able to book appointments with world-renowned artists who are otherwise unattainable, such as celebrity tattoo artist and owner Mario Barth, Japanese Master Hori Toshi I and Samoan Master Sulu’ Ape Pili Mo’o. “After the grand opening, we plan to fly in a Monk tattooist from Thailand who utilizes two-foot stainless steel spears,” says Barth. “He wears the traditional orange outfit. It’s very ceremonial and quite dramatic. Our links to the Asian cultures are deep and respectful.”

Barth envisions Starlight Tattoo as a destination, not just for individuals looking to get inked, but also for those curious about the rich and mysterious history of the practice. “I was born in Austria, so I first studied the European roots during a very underground period, where tattoos were used to identify prisoners,” he explains. “Marking others identified internment. Marking yourself came later, as a protest, to identify your freedom and your own individualism.”

Barth also spent a lot of time in Japan, learning from and observing the masters, discovering their use of inks and implements. With the rise of the Internet, the cultures have collided and today you see American-style Japanese hip-hop kids clashing with traditional full body suit businessmen. “With our visiting expert tattooists from around the world, Starlight Tattoo will reflect Las Vegas, a melting pot of different cultures looking to express themselves in different and imaginative ways,” explains Barth.

House of Blues General Manager Cheryl Vereen adds, “We couldn’t be more excited about this partnership. Both House of Blues and Starlight Tattoo are dedicated to diversity and the blending of cultures. We look forward to a long and…excuse the expression… colorful run together.”

Mario Barth’s Starlight Tattoo is a one-of-a-kind international tattoo organization specializing in luxury styling tattooing. The first OSHA approved tattoo studios in the nation, Starlight Tattoo features Barth’s groundbreaking, innovative sterile tattoo inks.

House of Blues Las Vegas presents the who’s who of live music, regularly booking the hottest touring acts to perform in its legendary music hall. The venue also plans to host special events throughout the year showcasing the amazing combination of touring bands and world-renowned tattoo artists.
