Entertainment Weekly "If you like…in the Motley Crue mold, grab the new one by The Last Vegas."

The Onion "Swaggering, stomping, balls-out guitar rock."
Phoenix New Times "Solid balls-to-the-floor Motor City rock....check these guys up close now, before success dulls their raw finish."

"Best New Discovery" South By Southwest Music Festival 2008 - SPIN Magazine
"They combine rock, glam and garage for an ass-kicking sound.
No doubt, rock'n'roll is here to stay in '09." - Billboard
The Chicago based, The Last Vegas deliver hi-energy spectacles, with a deliciously trashy, roughed-up edge, eliciting the inner rock star in all of us. Armed with their unbridled, raw talent, The Last Vegas posses the ability to musically beat crowds into submission, leaving fans no choice but to beg for more. The band destroyed the competition as they outplayed close to 8,000 entrants for the Guitar Center On Stage contest, landing the chance to open for the world's most notorious rock band, Motley Crue, as well as record and management deals alongside the rock icons.
"The overall talent and energy of The Last Vegas surpassed our expectations," said Motley Crue's Vince Neil. "Motley Crue is excited to pass the torch on to these amazing musicians, just as Ozzy did for us over 25 years ago."
A whirlwind musical journey shortly ensued for The Last Vegas. After they were hand picked as winners by the members of Motley Crue, the band immediately went into the studio with acclaimed producers Nikki Sixx, DJ Ashba and Marti Frederiksen (Aerosmith, Mick Jagger and Buckcherry) to record their first single, "I'm Bad." The single was premiered exclusively on AOL just two weeks after the competition. At midnight the following day, iTunes became the exclusive digital single retailer and notified their email list of over 40 million people that The Last Vegas' new single was available for download.
Although the band is just getting acclimated to their new digs, top Rock Label Eleven Seven Music, The Last Vegas are no strangers to hard work and success. They have independently sold over 10,000 records, tirelessly toured in 17 countries including the United States, Canada, Mexico and Europe, and are undoubtedly a top rock act in their hometown of Chicago. The band has been featured on Guitar Hero 2, Nascar.com, NBC Sports, UK's Kerrang Radio, MTV, MTV2, Fox, Fuel TV, Fearless TV/Radio, Q101, WLUP, The G-Hole, Camel Farm Program and was honored to be the official music of Kyle Busch Motor Sports. The first single, "I'm Bad" was also featured in the bed of national Guitar Center radio spots.
This band is cocked and loaded, ready to kick some serious Rock and Roll ass.... bringing back arena rock to the top where it belongs. Strap it on and turn it up.
