Since opening its doors in December 2002, the lounge-cum-petite nightclub has served as a springboard for countless nightlife industry careers; Mist would have turned ... Read more...

High school lives on: The fifth Vegas Prom

Las Vegas Prom 2008, dubbed “senior year,” was ostensibly the fourth and final edition of the annual party/nostalgia session. But not everyone can graduate in four years.

Q: How do you pack the Beauty Bar and its patio to maximum capacity? A: Celebrate The Get Back’s seven-year anniversary. It was a busy First Friday on October 2.
