Any bands with Steel Guitar in Las Vegas?

Post by Rhonda Vincent »

Hoping to find a country band with a steel guitar next week in Las Vegas. Anyone know where I can find a band with a steel guitar playing country music in Las Vegas? I'll be there Saturday & Sunday. 2/20 & 2/21. Any help would be appreciated.

Check with Forum member Tommy Wayne. I saw him a few times in Vegas, very nice guy and great player.

Rhonda, " Whiskey Pete's " at State line off of I -15 south of Las Vegas. Tommy Wayne gigs there on Friday & Saturday nights. I'd come there to visit you if you go there? I'm in California. Uncle Leo J Eiffert Jr. ;-)

Oh my....just checked the milage. Whiskey Petes is on the California/Nevada line. We won't have time to get there after our show.

Anything downtown on Fremont with Country Music? Or at the Golden Nugget?

Larry.....Thanks for your response......will be emailing you my email address. The last time I saw Kenny, and heard him play steel was in the 70's.....he hadn't been playing steel very long....but he was an awesome guitar player. He was super fast on the steel,

Hal, Kenny's gotten older just like all of us and he's slowed down a bit...
