Plenty Left in the Tank
Did anyone ever doubt the enduring rock and roll power of Aerosmith as a Las Vegas Strip resident headliner? The boys from Boston have been making noise since they opened their Park Theater gig in April and recently added 15 additional dates through June 2020.
Not only has the concert experience been hailed as one of the most intimate and detail-oriented shows in the band's nearly five-decade-long existence, it's been breaking box office records as well. Its fall run in Vegas through October has grossed more than $6.5 million, pushing the residency's totals to 25 shows, $35.6 million grossed and 163,820 tickets sold, according to Billboard. That adds up to a new level of legendary. Aerosmith is back at Park MGM on Nov. 19, 21, 24, 26 and 29.

Must-See: So You Think You Can Dance Live
The annual So You Think You Can Dance Live tour that takes the reality talent competition show's top performers across the country routinely makes a big stop in Las Vegas, but this year's show at The Smith Center for the Performing Arts on Nov. 22 will be special. That's because season 16 winner Bailey "Ballrok" Munoz Munoz is a Las Vegan and had been performing at The Cosmopolitan's Rose.Rabbit.Lie. before taking the SYTYCD stage. "I'm beyond excited," he said of impending return to Sin City. "I've been having dreams about coming back and celebrating with everyone. It's kind of crazy because I've always wanted to perform at The Smith Center, so that's another dream of mine that is (coming true). I can't wait."
