The Jonas Brothers lead this week’s best bets in Las Vegas

MUSIC

Jonas Brothers

“Is it me, or am I just having a good year?” Nick Jonas wonders in song on “Cool,” the second single from the Jonas Brothers’ hit comeback record “Happiness Begins.” If anything, the question registers as an understatement, as the trio’s first record in a decade is one of the top sellers of 2019, a breezily brash collection of pristinely produced pop delivered by a threesome who have gone from boys to (married) men. See them at 7:30 p.m. Friday at the MGM Grand Garden. Tickets start at $39.95; call 888-929-7849.

MOVIES

‘Western Stars’

For fans living in Las Vegas, this may be your best shot at seeing Bruce Springsteen, short of a tribute act. The singer hasn’t made a tour stop here since a 2002 date at the Thomas & Mack Center, but his new concert film is headed to movie theaters for two nights. “Western Stars,” the movie that features Springsteen performing all 13 songs from his album of the same name while backed by a 30-piece orchestra, also includes archival footage and previously unreleased music. See it Saturday and Wednesday at the Colonnade and Village Square.
