Black Eyed Peas frontman and co-founder Will.I.Am kept his energy going right through the night until early this morning! Not content with the group’s stunning opening act for U2 out at Sam Boyd Stadium, the hit hip-hop and pop group returned to the Strip to celebrate at its after-party at the Bank in the Bellagio.

That still wasn’t enough for the nonstop, energized Will.I.Am. At 1 a.m., he arrived at Rain in the Palms for his friend DJ Z-Trip’s Revolution for the People party. Will.I.Am went nonstop with a DJ performance scheduled for two hours rocking the packed club from behind the wheels of steel.

He stuck to Fiji water the entire time and didn’t even take off his beanie or black jacket over jeans and a T-shirt. Ten friends sat at his VIP table right on the main stage where he performed.

Ex-presidential candidate and Arizona Republican Sen. John McCain’s daughter, columnist and blogger Meghan McCain, was there in a VIP cabana overlooking the dance floor and watching Will.I.Am’s performance. Also at a dance floor table was Jacob Elisbury of the Boston Red Sox and his group enjoying vodka cocktails.
