Thinking of moving to Vegas - are there any type of full time house gigs there or anything like that there?

Serious note I bet house bands in Vegas is one hard fucking job to get, you will need something special and different to crack that nut.

oh I knowIn Indiana before I moved to L.A. I made enough money playing I didn't need to work a day gig. Moved to L.A. just to work on originals - maybe Vegas will be a happy medium between the two

You'll have to do covers there (at least for a good paying gig), but there are tons of musos there, and plenty of venues for original projects![]()

Was awesome !!
Shark Diver":i8cl527v said:Check with the agents. It's where I got all my gigs. Harmony Artist, Bad Kitty, West Coast Talent, M&M, etc.
kasperjensen":i8cl527v said:I saw an ad for a guitarist wanted for a Prince band in Vegas, that promised a minimum of 38.000 a year. That was a while ago though.
I don't know what it costs to be local out there, but that seemed very decent.
Bob Savage":i8cl527v said:I've been of the opinion for many years that the best cover bands in the world are in Vegas. I don't know how much opportunity there is to squeeze into the scene there but the housing market took a huge dive so there are probably still plenty of somewhat new, empty houses that need people in them.
