The House of Blues at Mandalay Bay turns its large concert hall into a large nightclub on some nights. The club is doing much better with an '80s-music night. We're into unity and diversity. Some clubs offer more Latin and soul music than others. The Hop is a nonhotel nightclub east of the Strip that has been offering several theme nights for more than a month.
Some nights adhere to rock and pop.
But Thursday is college and reggae night. And it seems to be picking up slowly. Connor and other Hop managers hope to turn the club into a premier, diverse club. He's tough on other clubs for not spinning more hip-hop. They want mellow.
