My Birthday Weekend Blowout: Two Nights of Pure Vegas Rock!
Tomorrow’s my birthday — April 29 —, and I’m rolling into the weekend with the kind of plans that only Las Vegas can deliver. If the universe cooperates, this birthday is about to be a two‑night rock‑and‑roll marathon featuring some of the city’s most electric talent. From the neon thunder of Fremont Street to the intimate, high‑octane vibe of Treasure Island’s Breeze Bar, this weekend is stacked!
Friday Night:
Voxxx & Count’s 77 Take Over Fremont Street Experience
The party kicks off Friday, May 1, under the canopy at the Fremont Street Experience, where the 1st Street Stage becomes ground zero for a double shot of Vegas rock.
8 PM – Voxxx Voxxx fires the first shot of the night, bringing that modern-rock punch that gets Fremont crowds moving early. They’re loud, they’re polished, and they know how to turn a free outdoor show into a full-blown concert event.
9 PM – Count’s 77 Then the reins pass to Count’s 77, led by the unmistakable Danny “The Count” Koker. Classic rock attitude, horsepower energy, and a crowd that shows up ready to roar. Their Fremont set will feel like a full-blown celebration — and this time, it’s literally mine. Happy birthday to me!
Two killer bands, one legendary stage, and the entire city buzzing around you. That’s how you start a birthday weekend!

Saturday Night: Mitch Perry & Paul Shortino at Treasure Island Breeze Bar
The celebration doesn’t slow down. It just shifts venues.
On Saturday, May 2 — and yes, they’re playing Friday night too — the Breeze Bar at Treasure Island hosts the dynamic duo of Mitch Perry and Paul Shortino from 7–10 PM.
This is where the weekend gets personal. Perry’s guitar work is pure velvet fire, and Shortino’s voice hits with that unmistakable rock & soul grit. Together, they turn the Breeze Bar into a masterclass in musicianship — intimate, powerful, and dripping with Vegas swagger.
If Fremont is the wild street-party kickoff, the Breeze Bar is the cool, classy, rock‑and‑roll afterglow. Two legends, one room, and a birthday night soundtrack that hits every note.

Two Nights. One Heck Of A Birthday Weekend!
If everything lines up, this weekend becomes exactly what a Vegas birthday should be — loud, live, and unforgettable. Voxxx, Count’s 77, Mitch Perry, Paul Shortino… that’s not a schedule, that’s one heck of a birthday celebration!
Here’s to hoping the plans fall into place — and to another year of chasing the music that makes this city feel alive, me included!
{My Take}
As birthday weekends go, this one has all the makings of a Vegas classic — loud guitars, neon skies, and two nights surrounded by the music that keeps this city’s pulse alive. (Mine Too) If everything falls into place, I’ll be celebrating another year on this planet exactly the way I want to! With two awesome bands and one dynamic duo!
Here’s to good timing, good friends, and a birthday weekend built on pure rock‑and‑roll energy.
Happy Birthday To Me!
