"New Years Eve was our 1st time here and to the Casino. I was thrilled at how well the Yaamava band is doing! I picked up their Pow Wow magazine in the lobby. Beautiful pictures, informative articles and interesting people that were interviewed, very well done! Palm's Hotel? Hell yeah!Back to Rock and Brew. Renegades of Rage(Rage Against the Machine tribute band) lead singer, Johnny, informed us of the great New Year's Eve concert for them and In the End(Linkin Park tribute band). The restaurant check in hostess crew were very polite and willing to answer our 1st timer questions. Bar staff was super busy, but very attentive and friendly. Buying tickets or picking them up will call took entirely to long. I could have gambled a little before the concert started, but not after an hour to pick up our tickets. I think they were training a new hire. The sound system was awesome and great job on the video and lights too. I didn't care for the bar hight tables in front of the stage but I stand right in front of Johnny singing anyways. We met a cool couple that took up the front of the table that was right behind us. Had a great time with Danny and his wife! Of course like everywhere else, the drinks were expensive. We didn't eat. They hubby had two beers and bought one for the lead singer too. Again, great job on a New Year's Day by the bar staff. Renegades, rocked the house. A mini pit started and security shut that down real quick. I personally don't mind a pit breaking out right behind me, it's the risk you run if you want to be front stage! But, I understand why security can't just let it jump off. Some overly drunk fool will loose their balance, go down, get stepped on and then try to sue. I get it, I get it! Security staff did a great job and was respectful and I witnessed several of them singing along. Glad they had a good New Year's Eve even if they had to work! Renegades was freaking great, as always. In the End brought out an even bigger crowd that kept security staff front stage and they broke up a couple of mosh pits before they got out of control. If you have never seen either of the bands, look then up and check them out. If you get the chance to check out any band at Rock and Brews, don't hesitate and it's more affordable than a real big concert venue. We'll be back! Thank you for hosting my favorite tribute bands and for being so professional!"
