Guitar guru Carlos Santana and his brilliant band resumed their residency at the Hard Rock Hotel to kick off Labor Day weekend, and yet again, the legendary music-maker played his heart and soul out at full pace.

Our leading lens lady Denise Truscello was front and center in The Joint to capture Santana’s platinum performance.

The Hard Rock contract stipulates that the only venue west of the Mississippi for fans to see Santana at full throttle in concert for the next two years is here in Las Vegas at The Joint, which opened in April with hometown heroes The Killers and Paul McCartney.

This is the second installment of Santana’s 31-concert run this year. Click HERE for our initial coverage when Santana initiated the residency.
