TONIGHT IN L.V.
Suffering from laryngitis, legendary singer Mick Jagger has been ordered by his doctors to cancel tonight’s scheduled first of two shows by The Rolling Stones at T-Mobile Arena. No word yet as of his status for Saturday’s second concert.
Ticket holders for tonight’s concert are being asked for now to wait on seeking refunds until the possible announcement of a rescheduled date. The Stones joined with T-Mobile Arena, MGM Resorts, Concerts West and AEG in sending out apologies Tuesday night for the inconvenience caused by Mick’s laryngitis.
The third and final debate of this unusually contentious presidential race between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump with Fox News anchor Chris Wallace as moderator takes place at The Thomas & Mack Center.
The Secret Service has shut down roads and parking areas near the arena, so be well warned about delays and detours. Attendees, after being cleared by security, will be bussed in from nearby schools where their cars can be parked.
If The Donald and Hillary showdown isn’t your cup of tea and you’re devastated by The Rolling Stones cancellation, head to Hard Rock Cafe on the Strip for two nights of The Saints with Brent Muscat playing legendary Stones hits. It’s a group of hometown headliners Brent, Robert Cournoyer, Anthony Serrano and Brian Litton.
