Singer and performer, Matt Goss, is leaving the Palms Casino Resort.  Goss’ last show is January 23rd inside the “GossyRoom.”   No word on why he’s leaving.  His producer, Robin Antin, said that Matt would be staying in Las Vegas for 2010.  No word on exactly what that gig will be!    Goss told me, “it’s all good.”

The Playboy Comedy Club will return to the Palms.  The GossyRoom will turn back into The Lounge.

You can read the blog I wrote after attending his show in November and link up to my one on one interview with him too.

Matt Goss Performs at the Gossy Room at the Palms

I don’t usually write show reviews and I am no expert, but I really wanted to share with you my impression of Matt Goss’ show at the Palms Casino Resort.   I really enjoyed this show!

First, it’s only 25 dollars.  A bonus, especially now, while some people are hurting financially and looking for inexpensive entertainment.

Second, Goss’ voice “live” is amazing.  He sounds great.  His original songs are just as good, if not better, than the songs he covered (Hotel California, etc.)   He also exudes energy.  This, mixed with a live band and sexy back up singers and dancers makes for an all out, good time.

Third, the intimate showroom (which is called the Gossy Room) makes your experience more personal.  Goss interacts with the crowd very well and even moves around the small showroom.  Instead of sitting in a cushioned seat, in a row next to other people, you are sat with your party at a cocktail table.  

You will have fun at this show. 

Matt Goss’ show is all I thought it would be… and more.   It has “Las Vegas” written all over it.    Goss has already been a huge success in the UK and 19 other countries. 

Check out my one on one interview with Matt Goss to learn more about him.

DJ AM working at Rain Nightclub, Palms Casino Resort

DJ AM (real name: Adam Goldstein) was found dead in a NYC apartment on Friday.  DJ AM was the resident DJ at Rain Nightclub at the Palms Casino Resort.  He was supposed to perform tonight (Friday August 28th).  Goldstein survived a plane crash about a year ago on the East Coast.  He was traveling with friend and drummer, Travis Barker at the time.  Both DJ AM and Barker survived the crash. 

DJ AM also attended the Marilyn Manson concert with friend Carey Hart at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino last weekend.

Here is a picture of DJ AM last weekend at Rain.  He is pictured here with the Black Eyed Peas.

His impact was felt immediately and will have a lasting effect on all who had the chance to experience ‘AM Fridays.’ He is a gifted and talented artist who changed the international music scene and helped make Las Vegas one of the DJ capitals of the world. He will be dearly missed.”
