Red Rock & Roll Review — Tom Tabback
There are “revues” and then there are “reviews.” The music from the 50s, 60s, and 70s is sure to strike a chord with everyone. Don’t miss Tom Tabback as he takes his audiences along Memory Lane with everything from Bill Haley and the Comets to the Rolling Stones. Enjoy the good music, and let the good times roll!

Arizona Singing Cowboy — Gary Sprague
Gary sings the Western songs of Arizona from the back of his trusty steed, Dusty. The amazing thing about this act is Dusty goes just about anywhere Gary goes. He even climbs stairs.

Liberace — Martin Preston
Martin Preston recreates the magic of Liberace in a spectacular full-length show, complete with crystal candelabra, glittering grand piano, and incomparable illusion of “Mr. Showmanship.” Mr. Preston is an actor and musician who has devoted the last 14 years to recapturing the music and glamour of the late, great Liberace.

Sean Mireau and Island Steele
Steel drums are musical instruments made from 55-gallon oil barrels that were invented in the late 1940s on the Caribbean island of Trinidad. Today, they are still made by hand by hammering and shaping the top of these barrels. The typical steel drum requires 40-50 hours of hammering to produce and there are fewer than 10 people in the U.S. who can make and tune steel drums. Don’t miss this performance and the sound that is unbelievably sweet.
