RUMBLE WEEK #1 CLOSES OUT IN LAS VEGAS @ THE ARUBA TONIGHT

Week #1 of THE RUMBLE closes out in Sin City as the Las Vegas version features a finely-tuned CHASING KINGS and two great Vegas acts, plus a $2 PBR draft special! Spread the word, and bring all your friends!

CHASING KINGS have been an incredible Rumble band, bringing their 'A' game every single night in towns they've never played before, only to have the locals responding and asking to book them again and again. They've played Las Vegas a number of times with our partners, NEON REVERB, so it should feel almost like home court this time around.

Now for the locals.....

DEVILCAR
Known for their live show, DEVILCAR are a local act indie rock act garner buzz for their pop ladden full length debut "Happy Go Darkness." Combining their love of vintage pop and raw post punk edge, DEVILCAR are a must see.

"Devilcar is tearing down the fast lane of the music scene with their brooding, well' heeled pop."- The Las Vegas Review Journal


CLOSE TO MODERN
Las Vegas City Life's favorite "neu-gloom" band, CLOSE TO MODERN are a throwback to the days of The Smiths and Joy Division with modern elements in the vein of Editors. After steady touring of the West Coast, CLOSE TO MODERN is bringing their dark melodramatic sound back home.

"Close to Modern mixes it up on the Smiths-meets-Interpol jangle of 'Sedentary Lessons,' which fuses a driving dance rhythm against a sinister and decadent European club vibe." - Las Vegas City Life

The FREE monthly music party is brought to you by Future Sounds, Neon Reverb, and Las Vegas CityLife!

THE RUMBLE: LAS VEGAS LINE-UP ANNOUNCED FOR JUNE

Just confirmed for THE RUMBLE: LAS VEGAS on June 13th @ The Thunderbird Lounge at The Aruba Hotel > CHASING KINGS + DEVILCAR + CLOSE TO MODERN. DJ AURAJIN will handle the turntables, the party is FREE, and there are $2 PBR drafts all night!

THE ARUBA HOSTS THE RUMBLE LAS VEGAS TONIGHT

This evening in Las Vegas at the Thunderbird Lounge in the Aruba Hotel it's THE RUMBLE: LAS VEGAS. We wind up the first leg of the Rumble run of shows (the 6th party in 7 nights) starting at 8:30pm tonight, so pull your mothers off the craps tables and over to see this FREE show that will work off the buffet you leveled.

Our traveling wilburys THE FEROCIOUS FEW and San Diego's LITTLE DEADMAN shake off the rust from last night's gig at Bar Pink in San Diego and join up with local favorite THE CLYDESDALE and DJ REX DART. Las Vegas City Life just did this nice feature on TFF that provides some insight into their 'busking lifestyle' - read it here. Our friends at Neon Reverb tipped us on LV's The Clydesdale so we're intrigued to catch it ourselves. “(The Clydesdale) Sounds like the soundtrack to a western directed by Quentin Tarantino” - Rolling Stone Magazine

Our traveling team - PEPPER RABBIT - hops on for one more party after having started in Seattle on Monday night and playing through Portland, San Francisco, Los Angeles and last night in San Diego.

THE RUMBLE: LAS VEGAS TONIGHT INSIDE THE NEON REVERB MUSIC FEST

THE RUMBLE: LAS VEGAS tonight is a part of Nevada's annual indie rock music festival known as NEON REVERB FEST, and tonight we give you 2 stages at The Aruba Hotel! Headlining The Thunderbird Lounge is a band that just did all the West Coast Rumbles, TWIN TIGERS, as well as MOTHER MCKENZIE, DREAMING OF LIONS, BRYAN TODD and the brilliant DAVID HOPKINS. Headlining The Aruba Showroom is THE HENRY CLAY PEOPLE with A CROWD OF SMALL ADVENTURES, HUNGRY CLOUD, NOVELTY ACT, & THE MAD CAPS.

Doors are at 7pm and the whole night is only $10.

THE RUMBLE: LAS VEGAS THIS WEEK AS PART OF THE NEON REVERB MUSIC FESTIVAL

Future Sounds is fortunate to have such great partners for the Rumbles in each one of the eight cities it happens in each month, and in Las Vegas we get spoiled by the guys at NEON REVERB, who each month select local talent to go with our touring acts to create THE RUMBLE: LAS VEGAS. The March edition of The Rumble LV is actually a part of the NEON REVERB MUSIC FESTIVAL, and so there are two stages rolling this Friday night that will rumble. If you don't know anything about Neon Reverb, you should look into them, especially if you are an indie band that wants to play Vegas and more importantly, play to actual kids rather than big casino crowds of tourists. There is more to the city than the Strip and the stripmalls, and Neon Reverb have a handle on it. Each year they put on this music festival that stretches for 4 days and we're excited to be a part of it this year. It's also an extension of the Rumble Tour that Athens' TWIN TIGERS has been playing on their way to SXSW next week.

The schedule for the night is as follows:

Thunderbird Lounge
7:15pm Bryan Todd
7:45pm David Hopkins
8:20pm Dreaming Of Lions
9:30pm Mother McKenzie
10:30pm Twin Tigers

Aruba Showroom
9:00pm The Mad Caps
10:00pm The Novelty Act
11:00pm The Henry Clay People
12:00am A Crowd Of Small Adventures
1:00am Hungry Cloud

JAGUAR LOVE CLOSES OUT THEIR WEEK OF RUMBLES IN LAS VEGAS TONIGHT

Super Bowl Sunday is no match for the FREE party taking place at The Aruba tonight when THE RUMBLE: LAS VEGAS arrives. We've watched JAGUAR LOVE start in Seattle on Monday night and systematically destroy each and every Rumble party - 6 in 7 days - down the west coast. The guys are real ballers, not only capable of starting big, but closing HUGE!

The Vegas acts representing this month are bands that bring lots of momentum to the table in the forms of KID MEETS COUGAR and PAN DE SAL. Kid Meets Cougar has a similar make-up to the Jaguar Love gang, in that it's a 2-piece that loves electronic-indie sounds, but maybe that's where the comparison ends. Check out "It's All In Your Head" on their Myspace.

Pan De Sal is so unique you'll need to catch them in person to hope to comprehend this world electro indie mix by a trio whose names are Orange Sheila, Love Pentagon and The Doodler. Think TOM TOM CLUB meets U.S.E but sang in three or four different languages.

The guest DJ this month is DJ AURAJIN

THE RUMBLE: LAS VEGAS is brought to you by Future Sounds, Las Vegas CityLive, WOXY, Spin Earth and of course, the NEON REVERB folks, our fearless partners and music/scene purveyors of Sin City.

THIS IS A FREE PARTY

SUNDAY - THE RUMBLE: LAS VEGAS @ THE ARUBA

Every night in Vegas is potentially deadly, but for a Sunday night THE RUMBLE: LAS VEGAS has a killer line up tomorrow night. Boasting a band that was just named "10 Vegas acts to watch in 2010" by the Las Vegas Weekly it's GRAY MATTER ACADEMY. Also representing the local scene is WALL STREET VAMPIRE and DJ MIKEATTACK. The out-of-towner this month is San Diego's SUNDAY TIMES.

Doors are at 8:30pm, show starts at 9:30 at the Thunderbird Lounge inside The Aruba Hotel and is FREE.

TONIGHT IN LAS VEGAS - THE RUMBLE: LAS VEGAS @ THE ARUBA

Our Sin City version of THE RUMBLE rolls into Las Vegas this evening for another FREE party at the Thunderbird Lounge within the Aruba Hotel. San Diego's TAPE DECK MOUNTAIN come in to headline after back-to-back Rumble shows in Los Angeles and San Diego. Their full length just dropped on Lefse Records and it needs to be heard. Representing the home court are two bands that we've heard plenty about from our partners, NEON REVERB - BLACK CAMARO and THE LAZYSTARS. Handling this month's DJ duties is DJ LADYFINGERS.

TONIGHT @ THE ARUBA - THE RUMBLE: LAS VEGAS RETURNS

Making another run at Sin City - THE RUMBLE: LAS VEGAS let's it ride at The Thunderbird Lounge at The Aruba for another FREE night of music. This month's party features 3 bands and a special guest DJ all brought to you by Future Sounds, Neon Reverb, Indigenous and WOXY.

Closing out their 6 city Rumble tour is the incredible APES OF WRATH. Watching them again and again, and their mid-afternoon performance at The Casbah in SD yesterday, it's easy to understand that this band has a huge future in front of them. They played songs off their newly finished full-length, 10 tracks of JONATHAN RICHMOND & THE MODERN LOVERS meets THE MUSLIMS/SP goodness. Just watching their drummer is a show within the show.

Las Vegas comes correct, and represent with THE SKOONERS, and band with gorgeous melodies at times while at other moments run off the rails. We've really enjoyed all that we've heard from this four piece and live they actually make indie kids dance.

Opening up are MINOR SUNS, an unsigned band from Vegas that create some gorgeous sounding indie rock that would find a nice home on Thrill Jockey or Barsuk.

The special guest DJ this month is DJ MIKEATTACK!

The party is FREE - The Thunderbird Lounge is inside The Aruba at 1215 S. Las Vegas Blvd

FIRST EVER THE RUMBLE: LAS VEGAS HAPPENS TONIGHT @ THE ARUBA

Vegas? Yeah, you heard it right, our little Rumble parties have now crept to Sin City to THE ARUBA where FITZ & THE TANTRUMS will finish their week long run of Rumbles that started in Seattle and have blazed a trail of new disciples in it's path. That puts us in seven US cities a month now, and we're gunnin' for 12 by March 2010.

Future Sounds has teamed up with Las Vegas' NEON REVERB, people that know how to throw a party for the inaugural Vegas Rumble. In case you were wondering, this won't be your typical big casino, tourist party, this is deep in the heart of the Vegas that people that live and sleep there hang out.

We took the lead from NR on some local acts that are now on our radar, and A CROWD OF SMALL ADVENTURES will headline, and THE MAD CAPS will open up the event. The special guest DJ is REX DART at this FREE party that also has a built in after-party.

The Rumble: Las Vegas starts tonight, but the talk already started:
