Jazz and Blues Lounge

While In Vegas…

by balaspa on October 31st, 2007

The posting from yesterday about the Las Vegas blogging event, got me wondering about what kind of jazz clubs there are in Vegas.  Given how they have entire casinos based on various themes, I am surprised they don’t have an entire casino devoted to Jazz. 

I have never been to Vegas, so I can’t say what is and what is not there.  I can only go by what I hear and what I find online.  So, I did  little checking.  I found an entire list of clubs with live music.  Of course, having never been there, I can’t say where these clubs are either.  For all I know, each of them is in the absolute worst parts of town.

Still, if you happen to be attending this event and you want some jazz, you may want to seek these places out (all information from www.lasvegas-nv.com)
