\u201cPass The Mic Live!\u201d will star New York hip-hop legends Ja Rule, Fat Joe, Slick Rick,<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Doug E. Fresh.<\/strong>\u00a0Each will take turns at a microphone passed by host DJ Cassidy, <\/strong>who isn’t a hip-hop legend and, therefore, we must assume, is the group\u2019s Joey Bishop. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Just as Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr., Peter Lawford,<\/strong> and Joey Bishop<\/strong> united in Las Vegas to form the Rat Pack, one of the greatest shows of all time, Ja Rule, Fat Joe, Slick Rick, Doug E. Fresh, and I will unite to create an experience that will go down in Las Vegas history,\u201d Cassidy said in a statement.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Since Cassidy has toured with various \u201cPass the Mic Live\u201d lineups since 2020, the brand has recognition in the hip-hop community. Still, he definitely should have titled this one \u201cThe Rap Pack.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tickets go on sale for the shows — set for July 5, 6, 12, 13, 19, and 20 — starting at 10 a.m. Saturday, April 13 via ticketmaster.com.<\/p>\n

Before postponing 10 of her residency\u2019s March dates last February, Adele had been apologizing to her audiences for being unable to hit the highest notes in her hits because of a sore throat. (Image: hellomagazine.com)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Adele <\/strong>has rescheduled the \u201cWeekends With Adele\u201d dates she postponed due to illness<\/a> in February. The 10 dates, which were due to take place at Caesars Palace<\/strong> in March, will now happen from October 25-26 through November 23-24.<\/p>\n

Adele returns to her stage at the Colosseum<\/strong> in May. By the time her residency concludes in November, it will have logged 100 performances.<\/p>\n

The 10 postponed shows were sold out, and the original ticketholders will be given first crack. If any tickets are left over, they will go on sale Monday, April 15 via ticketmaster.com.<\/p>\n

Trumpeter Brian Newman,<\/strong> leader of the band featured in Lady Gaga<\/strong>\u2019s \u201cJazz + Piano\u201d residency at the Park MGM,<\/strong> will relaunch his \u201cAfter Dark\u201d solo residency for seven late-night dates this summer. The shows begin around<\/em> 11:30 p.m. on June 19, 20, 26, 27, and July 3, 5, and 7 at the Nomad Library<\/strong> inside the Park MGM. As they have since Newman first launched the series in 2019, the shows will feature musicians, singers, burlesque dancers, and other variety acts through 2 a.m. and beyond. Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday, April 12 via ticketmaster.com.<\/p>\n

Earth, Wind & Fire<\/strong>\u00a0returns to The Venetian Theatre<\/strong> for seven shows from October 9-19. Tickets, starting at $59.95 go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday, April 12 via ticketmaster.com.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
