  Dayna Roselli: Hear the reaction from fans who were let down when she canceled at the last minute.

  Sean McAllister: We reveal the renovation plans and the world-famous restaurant that'll be moving in.

  Dayna Roselli: And a nightlife favorite is making a comeback, but this time the entertainment will be all new.
• 0:29
  Sean McAllister: Let's get to it and spin that wheel.
• 0:47
  Dayna Roselli: And I love this, Sean, because a lot of them are like new things.
• 0:51
  Dayna Roselli: Like it's like breaking news all across the board.
• 0:53
  Sean McAllister: I know.
• 0:54
  Sean McAllister: It's crazy.
• 0:54
  Sean McAllister: And I think the biggest news that is probably uh worldwide news is that Adele has finally announced the rescheduled dates of her weekends with Adele residency.
• 1:07
  Sean McAllister: And now fans know when Adele's going to be back on stage here in Vegas.
• 1:11
  Sean McAllister: It was up in the air, really.
• 1:12
  Dayna Roselli: I know everyone was saying, I don't think she's going to reschedule at the beginning.
• 1:16
  Dayna Roselli: If this ever happens, I don't know.
• 1:18
  Dayna Roselli: We'll have to wait until you know we have to see it before we believe it and that kind of thing.
• 1:21
  Dayna Roselli: You know, her famous uh social media posts, the video where she's very distraught and she announces in the final hour, like you said, was all the rage and all the talk.
• 1:30
  Dayna Roselli: But everyone was going, Well, she's in like London performing at award shows and doing concerts.
• 1:37
  Dayna Roselli: Hello, TV specials.
• 1:38
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, what about Vegas?
• 1:40
  Dayna Roselli: And finally, I mean, everyone was like, if she does not make right on this, that's gonna be an issue.
• 1:45
  Sean McAllister: I know, I know.
• 1:46
  Sean McAllister: Uh, so apparently the new dates are November of this year through March of 2023, and again, it's taking place.
• 1:56
  Sean McAllister: The show's happening at uh the Coliseum at Caesars Palace.
• 2:01
  Sean McAllister: Um and the reaction, people are excited that she's coming, but there's also, like you were saying, still a group of people who are like, I'll believe it when I see it.
• 2:13
  Dayna Roselli: Right.
• 2:13
  Dayna Roselli: And then also there are those p fans that came in and were frustrated because they booked a weekend here, and then they were like, Well, what are we gonna do now?
• 2:23
  Dayna Roselli: And how am I gonna get the time off?
• 2:24
  Dayna Roselli: And and all that kind of thing.
• 2:26
  Dayna Roselli: So we'll have to see.
• 2:27
  Dayna Roselli: Reading some of the responses on Twitter, um, uh there's one from uh Don Bueller who says, Guess I better book my trip all over again since I showed up to Vegas last time and it was canceled, but I'm looking forward to the show.
• 2:39
  Dayna Roselli: And others saying we love you, um, others saying we're so ready, somebody saying my heart is racing.
• 2:45
  Dayna Roselli: And then someone wrote, Wait, so if we have the tickets already, do we have to get a refund and rebuy through the pre-sale?
• 2:52
  Dayna Roselli: So everyone's kind of a little confused on how it's all working, is somebody saying I'm selling mine for January 20th.
• 2:59
  Dayna Roselli: Let me know if you're interested.
• 3:00
  Dayna Roselli: So there's a whole back and forth on Twitter about how this is all gonna work.
• 3:04
  Sean McAllister: Well, and if you remember when tickets went on sale last time, there were a handful of tickets for around 85 bucks.
• 3:12
  Sean McAllister: I don't think there were a lot of those because then it kind of jumped up to like 600 bucks, and that was up in the balcony.
• 3:20
  Dayna Roselli: Right.
• 3:21
  Sean McAllister: When you were down front, tickets were like 20,000 each.
• 3:25
  Dayna Roselli: Insane.
• 3:26
  Dayna Roselli: People were saying, like, this is unreal.
• 3:29
  Dayna Roselli: They would never seen anything like that really in Vegas before.
• 3:32
  Dayna Roselli: So it'll be interesting to see the pricing, what's gonna happen.
• 3:35
  Dayna Roselli: Um, she says in her tweet that she feels like she made the best decision and promises to make up on it.
• 3:41
  Dayna Roselli: I was asking you, and you did a well, we had chatted with someone and and did a quick little research on the COVID testing.
• 3:49
  Dayna Roselli: Because last time that was a big deal because every single person had to get a test and show that it was negative and get it on site or come in with test results.
• 3:58
  Dayna Roselli: I forget how that works.
• 3:59
  Sean McAllister: No, I believe it was all on site.
• 4:00
  Sean McAllister: You needed to have proof of vaccination plus have a negative COVID test on site.
• 4:09
  Sean McAllister: Right.
• 4:10
  Sean McAllister: Which I mean, really was unrealistic for the number of people who need to be tested and to have it be on site, and for people uh when you mix travel plans in with that, it just really was unrealistic.
• 4:24
  Sean McAllister: Um did reach out to a source who knows what's going on, and uh were told that the testing requirement is no longer in effect.
• 4:36
  Sean McAllister: Okay.
• 4:36
  Sean McAllister: You still need to show proof of vaccination, but no longer need the negative test.
• 4:42
  Dayna Roselli: Interesting.
• 4:43
  Sean McAllister: So that makes life a lot easier for not only fans, but the people who would be in charge of administering all that and making it all happen.
• 4:55
  Dayna Roselli: Well, listen, I'm glad she's doing it.
• 4:57
  Dayna Roselli: It left a big hole in the schedule at Caesars Palace at the Coliseum, right?
• 5:01
  Dayna Roselli: I mean, Keith Urban came in to take on a couple shows.
• 5:04
  Dayna Roselli: I did hear, and I don't know if that was confirmed, that a bunch of workers had to be kind of, I don't say, laid off but temporarily furloughed.
• 5:11
  Dayna Roselli: They didn't need them, yeah.
• 5:12
  Dayna Roselli: So I mean, this is she's gotta make up for it, and and we'll see what she does.
• 5:16
  Dayna Roselli: It's Adele.
• 5:17
  Dayna Roselli: I mean, people are excited.
• 5:19
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, and before the the last show in the days leading up to what was supposed to be the opening of the show, uh, there were a lot of Las Vegas uh entertainers who were you know reportedly part of this big choir that was going to be performing on stage with Adele during one of the numbers.
• 5:40
  Sean McAllister: I believe it was Skyfall, um, the James Bond theme.
• 5:44
  Sean McAllister: Um so it'll be interesting to see if these local Las Vegas entertainers are brought back to be uh part of this show.
• 5:52
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, it it will.
• 5:54
  Dayna Roselli: I don't know if she's gonna do it different, has a different, you know, or keep it the same.
• 5:57
  Dayna Roselli: And we don't really know.
• 5:58
  Dayna Roselli: We've heard so many little bits and pieces.
• 6:00
  Dayna Roselli: So Adele is coming back uh in November, apparently.
• 6:04
  Dayna Roselli: I'm sure a lot of people are gonna book their flight thinking, man, I really hope this goes through.
• 6:08
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, you know what?
• 6:10
  Sean McAllister: For everyone involved, I hope that it goes smoothly and that the shows are a success, and that I hope Adele is happy with it.
• 6:20
  Sean McAllister: I hope fans are happy with it because it was definitely a really, really, really rocky start.
• 6:28
  Dayna Roselli: It was, yeah.
• 6:29
  Dayna Roselli: All right, well, hopefully she won't beg and things will go on.
• 6:35
  Dayna Roselli: Hey, some good news for one of our locals' casinos out to the west.
• 6:38
  Dayna Roselli: And I say locals because it's a station casino, which isn't close to the strip, but a lot of people love Red Rock Resort.
• 6:45
  Dayna Roselli: It's one of our most popular, I would say, off-strip casinos, wouldn't you say?
• 6:48
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, and I've heard actually more and more um people coming in and staying at uh Red Rock or Green Valley Ranch, uh, these station casinos that are off the strip because it kind of is a more low-key kind of vibe than staying right down on the strip, but you're still in you know great proximity to all the action.
• 7:10
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, top notch too, you know, resorts, right?
• 7:13
  Dayna Roselli: It's not yeah.
• 7:14
  Sean McAllister: Without a doubt.
• 7:14
  Dayna Roselli: And Red Rock is ready to do some transforming, I should say.
• 7:18
  Dayna Roselli: They're doing like this casino-wide transformation that includes a bunch of different things.
• 7:24
  Dayna Roselli: So they made the announcement.
• 7:25
  Dayna Roselli: Um, we're actually recording this on a Monday because we're busy at the second half of the week.
• 7:29
  Dayna Roselli: So they made the announcement today.
• 7:31
  Dayna Roselli: Um and they've got a whole bunch of things coming, and one of them is the restaurant Lotus of Siam, which is so popular around the world.
• 7:39
  Dayna Roselli: Celebrities have been going to Lotus of Siam here in Las Vegas, which is located um in two different spots, but the most popular one just off East Sahara, off the strip.
• 7:48
  Dayna Roselli: And people, it's like a destination spot for that kind of food.
• 7:53
  Sean McAllister: Oh, yeah, an award-winning, a James Beard award-winning restaurant, which that's like the Oscars of the food world.
• 8:02
  Sean McAllister: Um, so it's so well known among foodie crowd, like you said, there's celebrities as well.
• 8:09
  Sean McAllister: Um, but the owner of Lotus of Siam partnered with a longtime Las Vegas nightlife executive to create the Boa Food Group, which BUA means Lotus in Thai.
• 8:23
  Sean McAllister: Oh, I like that.
• 8:24
  Sean McAllister: So, you know, it all comes together.
• 8:26
  Sean McAllister: And so they're kind of taking over the new uh restaurants that are going in over at Red Rock Resort and kind of revitalizing the offerings that they have over there.
• 8:39
  Dayna Roselli: I love that.
• 8:40
  Dayna Roselli: I love that.
• 8:40
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, and that's the most popular name, but yeah, and they're opening, I guess, two other concepts there too.
• 8:45
  Dayna Roselli: So yeah, they've got a whole, you know, group themselves now that are probably gonna bring incredible food to Las Vegas in in different ways.
• 8:54
  Sean McAllister: So without a doubt.
• 8:55
  Dayna Roselli: That's gonna be great.
• 8:56
  Dayna Roselli: Lotus of Siam, when did we say that's supposed to open?
• 8:59
  Dayna Roselli: That's uh supposed to open actually the end of 2022, right?
• 9:02
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, so soon.
• 9:03
  Sean McAllister: So probably fall winter, uh, we can expect Lotus of Siam to open.
• 9:08
  Sean McAllister: The other two restaurants um that the Boa Food Group is uh opening over at Red Rock Resort, uh Naxos Taverna, which is a Greek seafood focused restaurant, which should be just delicious.
• 9:24
  Sean McAllister: Like nice light food.
• 9:27
  Sean McAllister: I wonder if they'll have the Spanacopata on the menu, too.
• 9:30
  Dayna Roselli: I don't know.
• 9:30
  Dayna Roselli: That's good stuff.
• 9:31
  Sean McAllister: Spanacopata's great.
• 9:33
  Dayna Roselli: But I guess it's Greek seafood-focused cuisine.
• 9:35
  Dayna Roselli: So for people who love seafood, and then right near that, I guess, right next to the entrance, they're gonna debut an oyster bar.
• 9:42
  Sean McAllister: Yeah, uh, Callisto Oyster Bar, which there's another station casino, Palace Station, yeah, that has a famous oyster bar.
• 9:52
  Sean McAllister: So I'm sure that they're hoping that uh this new oyster bar is going to, you know, create another outlet for oyster lovers.
• 10:03
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, that's always busy whenever I walk by at Palace Station.
• 10:07
  Dayna Roselli: The whole bar's full, right?
• 10:08
  Dayna Roselli: It is.
• 10:08
  Sean McAllister: It is, it's a small area.
• 10:10
  Sean McAllister: Oyster.
• 10:10
  Sean McAllister: So it's highly coveted space.
• 10:12
  Dayna Roselli: There was one at the I think it was the Orleans too.
• 10:14
  Dayna Roselli: Whenever I go to the movies, I see everyone at the Oyster Bar there, too.
• 10:17
  Dayna Roselli: They have something similar.
• 10:18
  Dayna Roselli: Really?
• 10:18
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, it's not a station casino, but whenever I walk by, the oyster bars are popular.
• 10:22
  Sean McAllister: Oh, maybe we should do a a tour, an oyster bar tour for one episode.
• 10:27
  Dayna Roselli: Who has the best oysters?
• 10:28
  Dayna Roselli: I don't know if I'd be able to tell the difference.
• 10:30
  Dayna Roselli: I know the difference between like fresh and not.
• 10:33
  Sean McAllister: Well, yeah.
• 10:34
  Sean McAllister: Because the not would send you away for a little bit.
• 10:38
  Dayna Roselli: It sure would.
• 10:40
  Dayna Roselli: Red Rock also um is working on a casino bar, which will be located right between Lotus of Siam and the uh next house to Vernum.
• 10:47
  Dayna Roselli: And it's gonna be a great place, they say, for pre-dinner cocktails or a nightcap.
• 10:51
  Dayna Roselli: We've got a cocktail lounge um that will open in the former space of Crimson.
• 10:57
  Dayna Roselli: And so apparently it's gonna be like transformed into kind of a throwback upscale cocktail lounge set to debut this winter.
• 11:04
  Dayna Roselli: And that's the space where they used to do the themed Mary Crimson.
• 11:08
  Dayna Roselli: Merry Crimson and the spring in bloom and all that, right?
• 11:11
  Sean McAllister: Yep.
• 11:12
  Sean McAllister: And there's also a pool attached to that space.
• 11:15
  Sean McAllister: There's an outdoor patio area uh at Crimson, and that's going to be converted into an adults-only pool.
• 11:22
  Sean McAllister: Oh, I like that.
• 11:23
  Sean McAllister: Which is a that's gonna be a great area.
• 11:25
  Sean McAllister: They have lots of uh cabanas and day beds out there.
• 11:28
  Sean McAllister: There's an outdoor bar, so that area will be adults only when the renovation is complete.
• 11:34
  Dayna Roselli: I love that.
• 11:34
  Dayna Roselli: They're getting another Starbucks, they already have one.
• 11:37
  Dayna Roselli: Now they're gonna have two, which is really cool, and then a high limit slots area and Nielsen's frozen custard, which you said is really good.
• 11:44
  Dayna Roselli: I've never had it.
• 11:45
  Sean McAllister: It is.
• 11:45
  Sean McAllister: Where did you have it?
• 11:46
  Sean McAllister: Here.
• 11:47
  Sean McAllister: There was one uh right around the corner from our old house here.
• 11:52
  Sean McAllister: Okay, and we would go down there, they have their custard is so good.
• 11:56
  Sean McAllister: So good.
• 11:57
  Sean McAllister: Interesting.
• 11:58
  Dayna Roselli: I love anything custard because you and I are from Rochester, New York, where Abbott's Abbott's frozen custard is really popular.
• 12:04
  Dayna Roselli: And so when I hear custard, I get excited.
• 12:06
  Sean McAllister: Yeah.
• 12:06
  Dayna Roselli: I like ice cream, but custard, there's something about it.
• 12:09
  Sean McAllister: And the and I I think Nielsen's uh they're the ones that have the really unique uh ice cream scooper.
• 12:16
  Sean McAllister: It comes out kind of like in a a cylinder.
• 12:18
  Dayna Roselli: Okay.
• 12:19
  Sean McAllister: So you scoop it in the bin and it comes out in into your cone in the in the cylinder, but they also have great uh concrete, you know, where they mix in like Reese's peanut butter cup chunks into the custard.
• 12:33
  Sean McAllister: So good.
• 12:34
  Sean McAllister: It's basically like a uh what do they call them at McDonald's, like a McFlurry?
• 12:39
  Dayna Roselli: Right, or the Dairy Queen blizzard.
• 12:41
  Dayna Roselli: Yes, like that.
• 12:42
  Sean McAllister: Yes, but they call them concrete.
• 12:44
  Dayna Roselli: Oh, concrete.
• 12:45
  Sean McAllister: Yeah.
• 12:45
  Sean McAllister: I like it.
• 12:46
  Sean McAllister: Oh, it's so good.
• 12:48
  Dayna Roselli: All right.
• 12:49
  Dayna Roselli: Well, it says featuring freshly made frozen custard on site every hour, so they must like re- you know, like batch it up every hour.
• 12:56
  Dayna Roselli: So it's super fresh.
• 12:58
  Sean McAllister: So that will open uh the Nielsen's frozen custard at the beginning of 2023.
• 13:04
  Sean McAllister: Oh, cool.
• 13:05
  Dayna Roselli: All right, so Red Rock getting a redo.
• 13:07
  Dayna Roselli: We love that, always bringing new stuff.
• 13:09
  Dayna Roselli: So congratulations to them.
• 13:11
  Dayna Roselli: We already told everyone about the palms reopening, and that's been been kicking ever since.
• 13:15
  Dayna Roselli: And now finally, and and we mentioned this in the past, we have a date that the ghost bar is going to reopen.
• 13:21
  Sean McAllister: That's right.
• 13:22
  Sean McAllister: Uh, August 3rd, which is coming up here really quick.
• 13:25
  Sean McAllister: It is.
• 13:26
  Dayna Roselli: Now, we've talked about Ghost Bar in the past, and it you know opened in 2001.
• 13:31
  Dayna Roselli: It was open to the Palms for a very long time.
• 13:34
  Dayna Roselli: Then it it it was still the same space still existed.
• 13:36
  Dayna Roselli: Then they opened it as uh Apex, it was called.
• 13:39
  Dayna Roselli: Right took the Ghost Bar name away.
• 13:41
  Dayna Roselli: So basically, they're bringing back the Ghost Bar name.
• 13:44
  Dayna Roselli: It's on the 55th floor of the Palms, incredible view of the strip.
• 13:49
  Dayna Roselli: It's iconic.
• 13:50
  Dayna Roselli: If you ever watched the real world on MTV at the very beginning, they all worked there, it was a part of the show.
• 13:55
  Dayna Roselli: So it's been a popular place for years.
• 13:57
  Sean McAllister: Well, and one of the great parts about Ghost Bar as being a sky lounge, it has one of the most unique views of Las Vegas because you can see the entire strip from north to south.
• 14:11
  Dayna Roselli: Right.
• 14:12
  Sean McAllister: It's uh fabulous, and it's kind of perched up a little bit on the hill.
• 14:17
  Sean McAllister: Like Flamingo Road goes up the hill.
• 14:20
  Sean McAllister: I bonked the mic.
• 14:21
  Sean McAllister: Um Flamingo goes up in elevation a little bit.
• 14:26
  Sean McAllister: So the land that the palm sits on is elevated, and then when you go up 55 floors from there, it's a phenomenal view.
• 14:34
  Sean McAllister: You're almost like above the skyline of the Las Vegas strip.
• 14:40
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, it I think I told you I went to a wedding recently and it was in the next tower, but set kind of same area equivalent, and it made me reminded me what a great view it is.
• 14:49
  Sean McAllister: It is because you're right, it's so nice up there.
• 14:51
  Dayna Roselli: It's just you can see the whole strip from north to south.
• 14:54
  Dayna Roselli: So it's uh you're not on the strip where you're looking.
• 14:56
  Dayna Roselli: I mean, that's a cool view too.
• 14:57
  Dayna Roselli: When you're looking, you're right in it, but this is a different kind of view.
• 15:00
  Sean McAllister: But then uh I wonder if it's still there that there was a portion of Ghost Bar that overhangs the strip that had a glass floor where you could look straight down.
• 15:12
  Dayna Roselli: It was like a little square, it wasn't very big.
• 15:13
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, but people would actually go to find that spot and you look down, and you were like, whoa, you could see the bottom.
• 15:20
  Dayna Roselli: And it was part of it, right?
• 15:21
  Sean McAllister: Right.
• 15:22
  Dayna Roselli: So I don't know.
• 15:22
  Dayna Roselli: I'm sure, I'm sure I think it's gotta still be there, right?
• 15:25
  Dayna Roselli: I don't think they'd take it out and put something different.
• 15:27
  Sean McAllister: So tiles, no.
• 15:29
  Dayna Roselli: I know, but what will be different is the entertainment up there.
• 15:33
  Dayna Roselli: We've um, I think talked about Sky D Miles uh in the past.
• 15:36
  Dayna Roselli: She's a fabulous performer located here in Las Vegas.
• 15:39
  Dayna Roselli: She used to perform, I mean, she's performed in so many different places.
• 15:42
  Dayna Roselli: Rose Rabbit Lie, The Tropicana.
• 15:45
  Dayna Roselli: Uh, she's at Virgin Hotels right now, and she's moving over to the Palms.
• 15:49
  Dayna Roselli: And I love this.
• 15:50
  Dayna Roselli: So, so we were going, well, wait, how's this gonna work?
• 15:52
  Dayna Roselli: So I best basically they're gonna have like DJs there to kind of ramp up the party every night, and it kind of builds momentum for Midnight Sky, named after Sky, which is kind of what they're calling gonna like be the rebirth of cool in Las Vegas.
• 16:08
  Dayna Roselli: They say it's gonna be hip, sexy, soulful, a touch of class and beauty.
• 16:12
  Dayna Roselli: She's gonna be joined by live bands, sultry dancers, specialty acts, surprise guests.
• 16:18
  Dayna Roselli: And so they're having this music theme kind of rooted in soul up there.
• 16:23
  Dayna Roselli: And apparently they're calling it it's gonna be the funkiest good time in Las Vegas.
• 16:28
  Dayna Roselli: So it's a whole kind of different thing.
• 16:30
  Sean McAllister: That's kind of cool.
• 16:30
  Sean McAllister: It kind of reminds me of like not reminds me like I was there, but the stories of old Las Vegas when you know the rat pack would be up on stage for a late night show, and then performers from other Vegas shows, when they were done, they would pop over there and there would be collaborations.
• 16:48
  Sean McAllister: I wonder if it's gonna be that same kind of vibe.
• 16:52
  Dayna Roselli: True.
• 16:52
  Dayna Roselli: And when Sky was at the Tropicana, it was kind of like that as well.
• 16:55
  Dayna Roselli: She had the lounge there that was super popular.
• 16:59
  Dayna Roselli: But the best part about this is you're right, it's gonna be that, but with a view.
• 17:03
  Dayna Roselli: Right.
• 17:03
  Dayna Roselli: So, I mean, like the whole ambiance is gonna be kicking.
• 17:06
  Sean McAllister: That's great.
• 17:07
  Dayna Roselli: It's a great idea, right?
• 17:09
  Dayna Roselli: Yeah, Sky is fabulous in the promo video.
• 17:11
  Dayna Roselli: She's all in feathers and you know, of course.
• 17:14
  Sean McAllister: We need to take a trip over to Sky's wardrobe.
• 17:18

• 20:22
  Sean McAllister: They have a big event tent up there that's been constructed that's acting as a kitchen, and they have all these dining tables set out um among the, you know, the pine trees that are up on the top of the mountain there, and they're calling this series Pine Dining.
