text: I remember the very first show at the Joint My dad was lucky enough to attend at sat next to Jack Nickelson and he will tell the story a million times The new Hard Rock music venue in Vegas Well let us just say this review is a little more up to date nSince opening in the late s the Joint has renovated yet still keeping the sound distinguished and the setting intimate Before the renovation I seen shows like No Doubt Alicia Keys John Legend and even a fair share of punk shows nMy most recent experience was a little more old school with Cheech Chong and the band WAR They kept the level high ceiling however floor is more VIP than it use to be About private booths with comfy chairs and then seats with tables and waitresss along the side overlooking the stage GREAT layout The rd floor is a bit higher up than I remember but still a great view The floor you have the option for GA or seating depending on the show And the sound better than ever before I was very impressed when War got down on Low Rider and the bass was still nice and clean My only complaint the uppity staff Dude were at WAR AND CHEECH CHONG PEOPLE ARE GOING TO BE SMOKING POT We had his one security guard who we called Johnny Bravo cuz he kept walking by with his chest out sniffing us like he was a K Get over yourself bro nOther than that I cannot wait to see another show here Hopefully Mr Bravo himself will be working again to add to the entertainment
