Las Vegas  

Las Vegas is an iconic city of excess, known for its legalized gambling, flamboyant shows, high-end restaurants, and emphasis on spectacle. The city bills itself as "the Entertainment Capital of the World". Coming from anyplace else, that might sound like hubris on an epic scale; from Vegas, it's simply a statement of fact. Understatement is a four-letter word on the Las Vegas Strip, where the mega-casino hotels constantly vie to outdo one another in sheer opulence. Neon towers, dancing fountains, pirate ships, and erupting volcano's all compete for the attention of the casual passerby, while building-sized video billboards offer up advertisements for the myriad stage shows and performers. The original hotels and casinos that put Las Vegas on the map can be found at the northern end of the Strip in downtown Las Vegas. While many of these locations lack the glitz of their southern counterparts, they do offer up what purists call "the true Vegas experience," with its old-school gambling dens, showgirls, and lounge singers. The folks who come here aren't looking for drinks served by gladiators, pirates, or Klingons. They came to play!

Las Vegas (which is Spanish for "The Meadows") began as a watering hole along the Old Spanish Trail in the 1800s, as well as a stopover for Mormons traveling between Salt Lake City and San Bernardino. It was established as a proper town in 1905 when it became a stop along the San Pedro, Los Angeles, and Salt Lake City Railroad line, and was officially incorporated as a city in 1911. Construction began on the Boulder Dam in 1928, which brought thousands of workers to the area. When Nevada legalized gambling in 1931, Las Vegas became a city dominated by casinos and speakeasies catering to the dam workers. The upscale El Rancho Vegas resort was one of the first to lend a touch of class to the decadence, but it was Bugsy Siegel's Flamingo Hotel, opened in 1946, that started the Vegas tradition of opulence and luxury. The success of the Flamingo led to a building boom as newer resorts tried desperately to outshine their competitors. This custom of one-upmanship is an integral part of Vegas' heritage, and is still quite evident among the casinos today.

The number of attractions in Vegas is overwhelming. Even a non-gambler could spend weeks wandering the hotels, and still not take in a fraction of everything there is to see. From the fountains of the Bellagio to the Star Trek Experience of the Hilton, from the view of the Strip atop The Paris' Eiffel Tower to the gondola rides at The Venetian, Las Vegas is a city of infinite diversions. The shows run the gamut from the awesome spectacle of  The Ed Roman Guitar Shop to the cheesy Elvis impersonators of the Elvis-A-Rama Museum. Spectators flock to the city to take in the boxing matches at Caesars Palace or marvel at the high stakes in the World Series Of Poker.  And for those who prefer their entertainment a little less manufactured, nearby Boulder Dam provides ample opportunity for hiking and sightseeing, while Red Rock Canyon offers some of the finest rock climbing routes in the U.S.

The Cannery Casino & Showroom
Locals Secret Exposed

The Cannery is one of Ed Roman's favorite places in Las Vegas to see a concert. It takes a few extra minutes to get there than the usual places on the strip. However it's really worth it.  The Cannery is relatively new built in 2004. This is definitely  not one of the smelly, moldy Freemont Street Roach Ridden Flophouses.  
The room rates are good & the slots are the loosest I have seen anywhere in Las Vegas.
The atmosphere is great, no pushing no shoving and no screaming drunk morons pissing in the aisles.  Also I have been pleasantly surprised over & over with bands turning out great shows.
There are always plenty of seats, Concerts admission costs are low and there are no 20 minute lines to get a $12.00 beer like at the big casinos. The sound system is top notch & the crew is very friendly & competent.
The service is good, the restaurants are just OK but all the security guards and people connected with the show always have great attitudes. Unlike many other places !!!!
