Oh, and owner Tommy Rocker himself performs each Friday and Saturday at 10pm, which is a show in itself. Drinks are reasonable and they offer the standard bar food, mostly fried. Tommy Rocker's always attracts a big crowd, and if you're a Jimmy Buffet fan, Parrothead meet at Tommy's on the first Wednesday of every month.

House of Blues

The House of Blues is legendary in Las Vegas. It's simply the best venue in town, and Vegas locals love it as much as visitors do. It's modeled after the legendary House of Blues in New Orleans, where the roots of blues go deep. It's an intimate room with a restaurant attached. You can expect to see famous, nearly famous, and not so famous bands there, and you never know who you'll see or where they'll be in the future music world. If you can't catch an act, you can at least catch the tasty Gospel Brunch served every Sunday at 10am or 1pm each Sunday. It's Cajun and American food and a new entertainer every weekend. There's also a dance party every weekend. An insider's tip -- ask for standing room only when bands perform, you'll actually get closer to the stage. The House of Blues is located inside the Mandalay Bay Resort.

MGM Grand Garden

This is a big venue, really big, but Vegas locals love it for the equally big names that play here. The arena is patterned after Madison Square Garden in New York (hence the name), and for a big arena, the sound is remarkably crisp and clean. Maybe that's why locals love it so much. Or it could be because the popular Billboard Music Awards are held here every year. Or, perhaps it's because performers as diverse as Elton John and Bon Jovi play there every year. Whatever it is, check out the MGM Grand Garden for an event if you have the chance while you're in Vegas.
