Celebrity Showroom at John Ascuaga's Nugget
John Ascuaga's Nugget has a 700-seat theatre, mainly featuring comedians and bands you'll remember from the 60s, 70s and 80s. It's a distinctly Reno mix of the nostalgic, amusing and embarrassing and just the ticket if you've been dying to see Peter Cetera or Three Dog Night.

Shooter's
It ain't easy being sleazy and this dark bar right across from the big casinos on Virginia St does it oh so well. No gambling and a heavy-metal jukebox seal the deal.
