Anthony Michael Hall, known as "The Geek" in the classic 80's flick "Sixteen Candles" is planning to start film production of his own screen play titled "Life and Death in Las Vegas" at the end of the year. The premise is supposedly about people chasing an inheritance that they were screwed out of by Wayne Newton. There has been no confirmation that Wayne will partake in the flick...

Perhaps the last mom and pop hotel-casino on the Strip is shutting down. The Klondike Inn, on the far South end of Las Vegas Boulevard across from the Mandalay, will be closed Friday to make way for--what else?--a 5-star condo/hotel/casino project. The end of yet another era of old time Las Vegas...

There's a groovy new midnight musical in town which features murder, martinis and a dancing monkey and it all takes place at a 60's Tupperware party. It's called Shag With A Twist and it's perfect for all the swingin' Lowlifes out there...

MGM Mirage has started construction on Project City Center, the largest privately funded construction project in the United States. It's an 18 million square-foot mixed-use urban village (casino, condos, hotels, shops, entertainment venues, etc.) located on the Strip between the Bellagio and the Monte Carlo. It'll have close to 5,000 rooms and will ultimately employ 12,000.

We've heard that Minxx, a 15,000 foot gentleman's club will be opening this summer, buying up one of the last cabaret licenses the County says they'll issue. It'll be located by the Orleans Hotel near the now semi-new Seamless gentleman's club. A reality TV show about the club is already underway.

With the sale of the Hard Rock Hotel to NY-based Morgans Hotel Group, what becomes of all the rock memorbilia? Looks like Morgans wants to maintain the continuity of the HR (yea!) and will grab the stuff. At least most of it. Not sure about the plaster cast of Jimi Hendrix's penis, though.
And did the HR alter one of Kurt Cobain's guitars? A bit of controversy...

Barbara Streisand's tour stops at the MGM Grand Garden Arena on Saturday, November 18. Tickets go on sale Saturday and range from $100-$1000.

Luxor is putting the finishing touches on it's new center bar which they are calling Liquidity. Looks like a good rendezvous location for connecting at the pyramid.

Um, well, I suppose we should qualify that. When you enter "nude + weathercast" into the MSN search engine (someone who visited our site did), AmericanLowLife.com pops up at the top of the list! We're #1!! Woo hoo!
Guess we'll be holding auditions for nude weathercasters soon!

To celebrate their new $40 million pool renovation, The Palms, who are calling their swimming hole "Pool at the Palms", are starting Ditch Fridays, in a nod to the Hard Rock's Sunday "Rehab" parties. Ditch Fridays kick off June 23rd.

The latest on the Cher/Celine scene at Caesars Palace: Celine's contract runs out this coming New Years--she wants off for a while to have another baby. Cher will take over a couple of nights per week, Bette Midler a couple of nights and there's an intriguing rumor they will do a show together a couple of nights.

Perhaps the space is jinxed, but not even the Vivid porn stars could keep Vivid night club at the Venetian open. There have been at least three different clubs in that location and the Venetian says there won't be any more. No word on what the space will be used for. Well, it was kind of a buzz kill to walk for miles through the shopping mall in your party clothes to get to and from the club...

The Stratosphere has approached the City with plans to create a classy night club on top of the tower where the High Roller roller coaster used to be. The initial concept is for a 360 degree view of the city with glassed-in luxury boxes. We'll see if the Strat can go upscale.
