"Rolling Stone's senior editor Jonathan Ringen, in for the weekend, made what even a few years ago would have been a stunning observation from a rock magazine about Vegas in 2010. 'Las Vegas is easily one of the best live music towns in America, and this weekend was perfect evidence of that. In just one weekend, you could check out Weezer at a tiny venue, the Matador blowout, Van Morrison and the Dukes of September [both at Hard Rock Casino]. Outside of New York and Los Angeles, there's nowhere in America with that much variety.'"
In the Los Angeles Times, Richard Abowitz observes the embrace of Las Vegas and alternative music.
