Ross Orlando's Tahoe Spotlight
Harrah’s South Shore Room
had legendary southern rock star
Gregg Allman and his talented
versatile band rocking the room with
classic Allman Brothers Band hits
and his solo hits. “Midnight Rider”
and “Melissa” were fun to hear and
the sold-out excited crowd loved it
all. Allman also played some guitar
to go along with his keyboard and
vocals that he’s known for. His health
hasn’t been very good for the last
3 years, so it was great to see him
sounding and doing good. His book
of memories of life and music called,
“My Cross to Bear” that came out in
2012, I will bet is a good read and will
probably be a movie some day.
Another fun show at Harrah’s
was Foghat. With original drummer
Roger Earl and his talented band,
hearing the rock classic “Slow Ride”
with Earl’s solo drumming is so cool,
still to this day—from a song and
band that made hits in the 70’s. This
British band created a bluesy-rock
style and they play around 75 shows
a year.
Coming March 2nd is G. Love
and Special Sauce. Garrett Dutton
mixes alternative rock with jazz, hiphop and blues for a soulful tasty
blend with his band. G. Love’s flowing
rhymes are really cool and the girls
really get excited during his show.
Harrah’s will open a new
nightclub February 16th and it’s
called PEEK. More than $1 million in
entertainment plans and renovations
to the existing space that was Vex
nightclub. 40 intimate VIP sections,
aerial shows and so much more.
Paris Hilton and The Beatclan will
host the grand opening of PEEK.
Harrah’s Center Stage in their
main casino with Arthur Hervey on
Friday and Saturday nights always
creates a party atmosphere with all
styles of music.
MontBleu has TABOO from
The Black Eyed Peas February 8th.
Jaime Gomez is an accomplished
dancer, actor, author, shoe designer,
philanthropist and a global DJ
sensation. TABOO of The Black Eyed
Peas has sold over 60 million records
all over the world. This should be a
big Tahoe party to enjoy. February
15th Iration Heatseekers Tour with
The Green, Passafire and Pacific
Dub, will create a reggae style party.
This music always makes you feel
good and everyone’s always in a
good vibe during this style of music.
Legendary jazz guitarist George
Benson is February 17th. Benson
is a 10-time Grammy Award winning
musician that tours the worldwide
globe all the time. He’s recorded with
Miles Davis, Stevie Wonder, Chet
Atkins, All Jarreau and Jill Scott to
name a few. You’ll hear a mix of jazz,
pop and R&B as this versatile guitar
player and singer entertains you.
Benson will be 70 in March and his
classic hits are “On Broadway” and
“Give Me the Night”. He’s considered
one of the greatest guitarists in jazz
history. Comedian JoKoy is February
23rd. STS9 is February 28th and The
Expendables is March 6th. They
will have a Pool Party February 17th
that’s always popular.
MontBleu just had their grand
opening for Boogie Nights in Blu
Nightclub. The ultimate 70’s and
80’s dance party will be every
Saturday night from 8pm till close.
The multi-colored lite-up dance floor
is really cool. The retro environment
with funky furniture, shag carpets,
swanky VIP areas, the Love Shack
and Swingers Lounge, the Disco ball
and record covers on the walls, puts
you in the era of good fun. Characters
that will be there include Roller Girl,
Mr. Boogie, Hula Hoop Girl, Go-Go
dancers, celebrity impersonators
like Madonna, Tina Turner, Joan
Jett and Tahoe’s Cooley Jaxson
as Michael Jackson. Jaxson taught
Michael how to do the 'Moonwalk'
and was in many music videos and
TV’s “Solid Gold”. Jessica Broyles,
owner of Champagne Productions,
has choreographs these dancers and
the Heavenly Angels for Heavenly
Resort. Come dressed up if you want
and check it out.
The Beacon Bar and Grill will
have their Snowshoe Cocktail races
again on February 16th and March
16th. Give a try and win prizes and
make people laugh as your trying
to complete the course. There’s
live music, drink specials, good
food and more. Harveys has Cabo
Wabo (Sammy Hagar’s place) with
entertainment every night. Food and
drink specials at this popular Tahoe
hot spot makes for good fun. The
Improv with new comics each week
and host Howie Nave, is always a
hit. Straw Hat Sports Bar and Grill
has 25 big HD TV’s and food and
drink specials. Horizon has Illusion
Fusion starring Alex Ramon. Fun
for the whole family. And remember,
EntertainerTahoe.com is there 24
hours a day for you.
Have fun, you’re in Tahoe!!
The Cabo Lifestyle at Cabo Wabo Cantina
Great entertainment for all tastes in
February at Cabo Wabo Cantina!
Non-stop fun is lined up for the entire month
of February. Kicking off the first weekend in
February we have The Garage Boys, a rockin’
band out of Las Vegas that is sure to entertain.
The weekend of February 8 – 9, we have
Reno’s favorite band, AudioBoxx. These guys
are sure to keep everyone on the floor all night
long! Presidents Day Weekend, February 15 –
16, Mad Karma will be performing to appease
the masses.
Fun isn’t meant for weekends only, so start
your week off on Sunday with DJ English in da
house with $2 Coronas, $3 Kamikaze Shots and
$4 Vodka Red Bulls. Mondays at 9:30pm it’s $3
Coors Light and the Cash Only Band playing
all your favorite Johnny Cash songs and other
popular country tunes. DJ J.Bird gets music
pumping at 10pm on Tuesdays while the drinks
keep flowing with $3 Coronas and $3 Vodka
Red Bulls. You are invited to join us at 9:30pm
for Reggae Wednesdays featuring Element of
Soul, along with $3 Red Stripes.
Rounding out the month of February is
another top band from Las Vegas, Left of
Centre, February 22 – 23 at 10:30pm. Cabo
Wabo Cantina is the hottest spot to spend your
February! For more information, please call
775-586-6647.
Zephyr Cove Snowmobile - Lake View Tours
Zephyr Cove Snowmobile Center Tahoe’s Only Lake View Tours
There is something very special
about Lake Tahoe in the winter time
that many visitors to Lake Tahoe
never get to see or feel. The epic
views of the lake and its surrounding
peaks from the ridgeline, snow-laden
trees as far as the eye can see,
Mother Nature’s naturally formed
snow sculptures in the woods, and
experiencing the brown and green
valley views looking east from the
peaks and then looking back over
one’s shoulder and seeing the blue
water contrasting with the white
mountains and the blue sky looking
west.
To experience all of this and
more join the folks at the Zephyr
Cove Resort Snowmobiling Center
for a snowmobile tour to the Tahoe
Ridgeline. Located right here on
South Shore, Zephyr Cove’s base of
operations is only 4 miles from the
casinos and the Heavenly Village. As
part of their service, the snowmobile
center
offers
complimentary
transportation from most local lodging
properties. With over 40 miles of
groomed trails starting at 7,200 feet
and traveling as high as 9,000 feet,
Zephyr Cove Snowmobiling caters
to beginners and experienced riders.
Tahoe visitors may ride single or
double and children between the
ages of 5 and 15 may ride along
with an adult. The center provides
helmets with visors to all guests and
has a full array of winter clothing for
rent. New this year, try a helmet cam
and go home with a memory that will
last a lifetime.
Each group of 10-12 sleds has a
lead guide and another bringing up the
rear. All of the center’s snowmobiles
have heated handgrips for both the
driver and accompanying passenger.
Safety training precedes every tour.
Tours last approximately 2 hours
winding their way through pines,
aspens and to the Tahoe Ridgeline.
Three-quarters of the way through,
the guides will treat you to the best
hot chocolate above 7,500 feet!
Ask about the Kids Ride Free
Thursdays special. Private tours and
group rates are also available. For
reservations and information please
call 775-589-4908. Reservations are
strongly suggested.
Don’t forget to bring your camera!
Another Late Night with LateNiteBilly
I have two questions. Where has the
Winter gone? and... Will it snow again?? I'm
not trying to jinx anything, just wondering!
Who knows what February has in store as
far as the weather goes, but one thing I can
tell you about for sure is... the shows LateNite Productions has coming up - and it's
as exciting as always!
Friday, February 8th Taboo from The
Black Eyed Peas will be gracing the stage
of the Montbleu Theater for Wild 102.9's
Winter Function. I'm not sure "gracing the
stage" is the right term. More like "setting it
on fire with his explosive style"!!
Taboo has taken his music all over
the world and The Black Eyed Peas have
sold an estimated 60 million records to
date. Taboo's solo live performance is
an interactive experience bringing his
DJ talents to the forefront blending them
with high energy dance, MC and crowd
interaction. Taboo has been a driving force
behind the unique style and energy of The
Black Eyed Peas and brings that heart
stopping performance to Lake Tahoe one
night only! When asked about the live show,
Taboo describes it as "an open format. I like
to call it the 'Taboo Experience'. DJing is
one part of it. There's also a performance
element where I'm incorporating my own
material, some of the songs that I've done
on my own and with The Black Eyed Peas.
I felt like I needed to incorporate something
other than just DJing. "I have local b-boys
or dancers perform with me, and we do a
couple different dance sections as a visual.
We also have really good visuals behind us,
as far as the LED screens. We incorporate
video content.You're getting the all-around
experience." "The Black Eyed Peas: Taboo
Experience"
Saturday, February 16th we move the
party over to Cal Neva Resort in North Lake
with Andre Nickatina and Smoov-e. Now
Andre Nickatina never ceases to amaze
me. I bring him to town probably more
than any other Artist, usually twice a year,
every year, for the last decade and do his
fans get tired? NO! The shows get bigger
and bigger every year! Born and raised
in the Fillmore District of San Francisco,
Andre Nickatina has been a Hip-Hop/Rap
luminary since the release of his critically
acclaimed debut, “The New Jim Jones.”
Nickatina’s classic stage show combined
with his rare interviews, maintains his
mystery and unique musicianship that has
spanned two decades. Without saying so,
Nickatina has had his finger on the pulse of
what is raw, uncut and capable of capturing
the mind and ears of listeners. Never one
to follow or ride trends, Andre Nickatina is a
rare breed of artist… one of the last original
trend setters. Nickatina does not do what
the people want… rather the people want
to know what Dre will do next.
Next up. A true Bay Area Legend,
as legendary as they come. A pioneer
to the Rap Game. TOO $HORT live in
concert! This is happening on Friday,
March 1st at Cal Neva Resort and allages are welcome. This was the biggest
sold-out show of the year for Late-Nite
Productions last year so don't sleep on
this one, get your tickets NOW! Too $hort
is a Platinum selling Artist, has appeared
in several different movies and a Reality
Show, owns his own record label "Up All
Nite Records" and also works as a mentor
at Youth UpRising in Oakland, CA, a group
serving at-risk youths. Don't miss this rare
opportunity to see such a Legend in the rap
game up close and personal on March 1st
at Cal Neva Resort!
Sage Francis (Friday, March 22nd)
and J-Boog (Tuesday, April 2nd) will be
at Blu Nightclub inside Montbleu Resort
so mark your calendars! Also, 7800' out
at Kirkwood has been keeping the local
musicians busy as always with Mark
Castro Band (Feb 9), Weapon (Feb 16),
Drinking With Clowns (Feb 23) and
Swamp Zen playing two days in a row
(Mar 2 at night and Mar 3 on the deck
during the day).
We alway have to give a big shout out
to Sierra At Tahoe and Tahoe Blue Vodka
for the continued support!
Till next month Tahoe - Keep the Vibe
Alive! ~LateNiteBilly
Comedy From The Mountain
Hello fans of comedy and the
need for total escapism. I was going
to encourage folks to turn off the boob
tube and create your own entertainment
but part of the ‘job’ of being a comedian
is gathering all the news from the TV
that is getting the most play and then
refine it, pass it through the funny funnel
so when it finds itself on the other end
hopefully will sound both hilarious and
informative and if it makes you think then
that’s a bonus my friend. Continuing on
that thread I’ve been joking that it’s just
a matter of time before metal detectors
are installed at comedy clubs across
this country because sooner or later
hecklers are going to take disrupting
shows to the next level. All comics have
had their fair share of having to deal
with a-holes who didn’t get enough
attention growing up and end up being
useless humans who’s only redeeming
contribution to this life is that of organ
donor for other people more worthy. I
wish, like background checks for guns
some people would have to pass a
mental competency test before entering
a comedy club. Bottom line: if you’re
easily offended stay home. Better yet
don’t go to a comedy club because
nobody paid to see you in the first place.
Happy February!
If you’re not familiar with Bret
Ernst you’re not alone but he’s quickly
becoming a known entity and headlines
up here for the first time. He seems to
be all over Showtime first on “Comics
Without Borders” and then on the very
popular series, “Weeds.” He was also
part of the movie, “Vince Vaughn’s
Wild West Comedy Show” (currently
out on DVD). Bret was on the hit
series, “CSY: NY” and is a regular on
E! Entertainment’s “The Chelsea Lately
Show,” Comedy Central’s “Premium
Blend,” ABC’s “Comics Unleashed” and
“The Late Late Show” on CBS.
Frazer Smith is no stranger to
Tahoe and has quite the background
mainly in radio. Frazer Smith is one
of Los Angeles’ best known radio
personalities and pound-for-pound the
best one-liner comic working in the
country today. Fortunately for us he’s
really funny and not some run-of-themill wanna-be comic like so many radio
jocks are. I’ll never sound as polished
as a Fraser Smith but we do share a
lot in common considering many of our
guests are comedians when it comes
to radio. He has interviewed everyone
from comics to athletes to big celebrities.
Frazer has also performed with many of
the acts he’s also interviewed . This is
his second time back in over five years
so it’s going to be a lovely week working
with him. He had his own show on NBC.
“Rock In America”which was a late
night show that aired after “Saturday
Night Live” during its heyday. Frazer
also hosted the show that was “...ahead
of it’s time.” Catch both Bret and Frazer
February 6th through the 10th.
One show I’m absolutely looking
forward to is this one: Bob Zany and
newbie-to-the-Lake Zan Aufderheide.
Both are not only on my morning radio
show every week (Zany every Tuesday
with ‘The Zany Report’) and Aufderheide
with ‘A Moment of Zan’ every Thursday)
but the two have produced a show
called, “Zan vs Zany” and already has
been huge hit in Las Vegas. Zan is from
the Midwest and Zany well, he’s on the
road so much I don’t even know where
he’s from any more. This being Zan’s
first time up here she already feels like
a local as witnessed from her replies
to my Facebook postings and already
knows she has to hydrate, get some
warming clothing and knows the correct
pronunciation of Nevada. Zany has a
long and impressive history of being in
the entertainment business. With credits
that include being on “The Tonight Show
with Jay Leno,” 17 years as part of the
annual Jerry Lewis Muscular Dystrophy
Telethon and Comedy Central spots
Zany’s career on the small screen is
still relevant, yes. On the big screen you
might have seen him in the documentary,
“I am Comic,” in “Joe Dirt” starring David
Spade, opposite Linda Blair in “Up Your
Alley,” playing a lawyer in Matt Damon’s
“The Informant!” and his latest movie,
“23 Minutes to Sunrise” directed by Jay
Kanzler and starring Eric Roberts and
Nia Peeples. In-between producing his
solo shows and the ‘Zan vs. Zany show
Bob has produced numerous comedy
shows for other comics breaking in thenunknown acts such as Garry Shandling,
Yakov Smirnoff, Robert Wuhl, Kevin
Nealon and Nia Peeples to name but a
few. He’s also done radio himself being
hired by KLOS out of L.A. radio as a
personality Saturday mornings. That
was Bob’s introduction into radio and he
soon branched out from there with “The
Zany Report” heard on over 160 radio
outlets across the country (including
“Howie’s Morning Rush” on KRLT every
Tuesday). Looking forward to this show
Howie Nave
a lot and you too can see it February
13th through the 17th.
Howie Nave is the host/emcee/
manager of The Improv @ Harveys
every Wednesday through Sunday.
Fly Fishing
Reprinted from February 2012 as
Victor is out of the country! Please check
with the shop for any updates.
We are now offering Guided Ice
Fishing Trips in the Carson pass area!
We offer guided fly fishing year
round on the Carson, Truckee and
Walker Rivers. Caples, Red Lake,
Spooner Lake, Indian Creek Reservoir
and Boca Reservoir as well.
East Walker River Fishing ReportCA section: The Miracle Mile is fishing
well and as long as the temps are up
and the snow is away, the fishing will
continue to stay good! The Midges
have ruled the roost as of late with
Griffiths Gnats, Para Adams and Micro
Midges are working well on the surface
but changing day to day and the Biot
Emerger, Pehle's pupa, UV Midge and
the tiny Zebra Midge doing well below.
When the fish are up (which is a lot
lately) leave the nymph rigs in the box,
the dry fly fishing has been way too
much fun!
A lot of these fish are feeding on
midges just below the surface and
following through looking like they are
eating off of the surface so pay attention
to the rise form and look for a bubble
when they eat an adult. Small Baetis
patterns are working but we're not
seeing a lot of Baetis on the water as of
yet. The fish have been rising as early
as 8 am so get there early and give'em a
go. Nevada has been a bit tougher due
to ice but with the warmer temperatures
of late, it should turn on again soon
especially as the days lengthen. Nevada
is a good way to beat the crowds and
always worth checking out.
Little Truckee River Fishing
Report- As long as you can get up the
road, the fishing should be worth the
effort.Look for risers in the middle of the
day but don't count on a ton of them.
The fish are still up and they still have
to eat! Baetis and Midges in small sizes
under the surface as well as on top!
The LT is still fishing well as long as the
temperatures hold and the snow stays
away. The crowds have subsided with
the snow on the road!
Truckee River (Ca) Fishing
Report- Closed above the 267 Bridge.
The year round section below 267 is
still fishing but tough. The water is cold
and the fish are lethargic but still have
to eat. Put it on their head and they will
probably open their mouths but it will
take an excellent angler to get a few
fish! Try Baetis or Midges and possibly
an Egg pattern or San Juan Worm. It is
going to get tougher as we start getting
more storms in the near future! The
lower you go towards Nevada the better
the opportunity will be.
Truckee River (Nv) Fishing
Report- Flows are great for this time
of the year and actually a little on the
high side! Look for the cloudy days
for filled in Baetis hatches especially
below Reno. Nymphing will be best but
the dries have produced a few fish as
well. Nymphs: Stoneflies 8-12, Mayfly
patterns 16-20, Flashback PT's 16-20.
Dry Flies: Parachute Adams 14-18 and
Blue Duns 18-20. Streamer action is
picking up and is your best shot at one
the Nevada Toads!, Streamers-Buggers
in olive, white and black, Wool-Head
Sculpin, Crystal Buggers, Meat Whistle
olive and black, and of course the
Crawdad!!! Great flows for floating!
Tahoe Area Still Waters: Pyramid
Lake - Things are starting to change
lately and the fishing should start to get
back to normal for this time of year as
Victor Babbit
we get storms coming in. Without the
wind, fish early and late in the day but
when it starts to blow get out there and
fish all day! Buggers, Buggers and more
Buggers for the time being.
Indian Creek Reservoir - Looks
like the fishing will be done for a bit or
until it thaws anyway! When it does
there will be plenty of fish and they
should be on the Blood Midges. With
the last storm the lake froze again and it
could be a bit before it opens up.
Caples Lake Report - Caples is
fishing quite well and the ice is safe.
With the recent snow you can get on
the ice with out the worry of slipping.
The Spillway areas as well as the Main
Dam area are both doing well. Try to
fish the areas that are about 10-15 feet
deep and try all levels from the bottom to
just below the ice. Power Bait, Worms,
Salmon Eggs and Bay Shrimp will work
or try jigging a Kastmaster. If you are
not getting fish, move to a new area or
look for others catching fish and get to
the same area. On occasion you can
find holes that are already drilled and all
they need is to be broken open with a
tire iron and then use a strainer to clean
out the ice if you do not own an auger.

Boogie the Night Away at BLU Nightclub
It was all sequins, polyester, afros,
spandex, and disco balls as far as the
eye could see at the opening of Boogie
Nights, the ultimate 70s and 80s
dance party at Blu Nightclub inside
MontBleu Resort Casino and Spa on
Saturday, January 26th. Walking inside
the newly transformed club was like
stepping directly into a time warp back
to the 70s and 80s, compete with shag
carpet, retro furniture, vinyl albums,
vintage posters, and a state-of-the-art
light-up dance floor. Everyone got in
the spirit and dressed the part, which
only added to the amazing energy of
the party. The light-up dance floor was a
huge hit and was completely packed for
most of the night with everyone dancing
along to favorites such as the “Y.M.C.A.”
and learning how to do “The Hustle”.
Dave Davis, Director of Entertainment
for MontBleu Resort, was thrilled with
the success, and said, “I’m so excited to
see such a great energy from the crowd.
Everyone was having an amazing
time dancing and singing along, the
performers were fantastic, and every
song was upbeat and fun. We’re really
looking forward to having this Boogie
Nights experience every Saturday at
Blu Nightclub!” People traveled from far
and wide to come to the opening night
including a group up from San Francisco
to celebrate a friend’s birthday. When
asked why they chose to come to Boogie
Nights, one party-goer Liz Kroft said,
“How can you go to a 70s/80s party and
not have fun!? It was a no brainer that
it’d be a good time.” And a good time
it certainly was! With doors opening at
8pm, crowds came early and danced
until the wee hours of the morning, way
past the original intended closing time.
With a fun mix of young and young-atheart, the night was a crowd pleaser for
all ages.
Host Dreu Murin helped keep the
party pumping all night, pulling people
up on stage to celebrate birthdays,
introducing performers, and interacting
with the crowd. His leopard platform
shoes complete with goldfish in the
heels were quite the fashion statement
and were a huge hit with the crowd.
Celebrity
impersonators
including
Joan Jett, Madonna, Tina Turner, and
Michael Jackson rocked the crowd with
performances throughout the night.
Once former “Solid Gold” dancer and
MontBleu’s own Cooley Jaxson took the
stage as the late great Michael Jackson,
the crowd was mesmerized by his
incredible dance moves with everyone
whipping out cell phones to tape the
performance. Hula Hoop Girl owned
the night with her light-up hula hoop and
Roller Girl was quite impressive on her
skates as she danced throughout the
crowd.
You can catch the Boogie Nights
Ultimate 70s and 80s Dance Party
every Saturday at Blu Nightclub inside
the MontBleu Resort Casino & Spa.
Doors open at 8:00pm and tickets are
available at the door -- $10 or $5 with
local ID. Dress up in 70s/80s attire
and get in free! Boogie Nights is also
available for bachelor/bachelorette and
private parties. For VIP tables and bottle
service, call 775.586.2000. For more
