Who is JOURNEY USA?

Journey USA — the nation’s premier Journey cover band — is headed to Silverton Casino’s Veil Pavilion on March 8.

Journey USA is the closest thing to ‘70s & ‘80s Journey music you’ll ever hear!

Start with a singer who was hired to do vocal work for Steve Perry during his solo career.  Add the rest of the band—a guitarist who played and penned multiple hits for Grammy nominee Great White in the ‘80s MTV era, a drummer who also toured with Great White, and a veteran multi-instrumentalist with three appearances on AXS TV’s “World’s Greatest Tribute Bands,” the thundering precision of bassist Jeffrey Bretz—and you have Journey USA!

With an emphasis on crowd participation and high energy performances, this talent-packed Journey tribute band captures the signature sound of the supergroup with hits like Don’t Stop BelievingOpen ArmsSeparate Ways, and Any Way You Want It, every song executed with stunning precision!

 

If you want the best possible Journey experience out there, look no further—it’s Journey USA!

On March 8, Journey USA is paired up with special guests PETTY PARTY, celebrating the music of Tom Petty.

When Tom Petty blasted onto the scene with the song Breakdown back in 1978, no one could have have ever predicted that he would eventually become one of the most prolific singer songwriters in the history of popular music.

With 28 top 10 hits to their credit, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers captured the heart of our nation with catchy melodies and a power pop style reminiscent of the Beatles and the Byrds in their heyday!

Driven by a deep love and admiration for Petty’s music, Devitt Feeley assembled a cast of top flight Los Angeles tribute musicians to faithfully and respectfully perform Tom Petty’s classics with great attention to detail and a heartfelt love of the music that becomes evident in the passion and intensity of their performance.

Journey USA and PETTY PARTY are headed to Silverton Casino’s Veil Pavilion on March 8.  Click here for tickets.

Before & After

We’re super proud of the recent renovation of our guest rooms.  More than a remodel, this was an entire renovation!  We actually stripped the rooms back down to the studs in the walls, and started fresh.  Then we added a new “cowboy glam” décor.

Here is a before and after image of the same room.before and after

What is Dim Sum?

Dim sum is a large range of small Chinese dishes that are traditionally enjoyed in restaurants for brunch. Most modern dim sum dishes are commonly associated with Cantonese cuisine, although dim sum dishes also exist in other Chinese cuisines. Similar to the way that the Spanish eat tapas, dim sum dishes are shared among family and friends.

 

WuHu Noodle at Silverton Casino brings you authentic Asian recipes and traditional favorites. Locals know that this is the place for noodles in Las Vegas.  It features authentic regional noodle dishes from all over Asia. WuHu has been called one of the best restaurants on Blue Diamond Road in Las Vegas.
