Local promoter Ravealation doesn’t skimp out on the experience for their attendees. This Hard Rock in particular is one of the promoter’s go-to booking destinations, partially due to the fact that it is dressed to the 9’s with music history all over the place. Though it looks small from a distance, the main dancing area never turns into an uncomfortable shoving fest, even when maneuvering from front and center to the huge patio outside to get a gander of the strip from a birds eye view.
A quick break from the action is more relaxing than normal on Hard Rock’s patio, but considering the venue’s soundsystem for this show the breaks wrapped up fast. In order to make sure everyone fully experience the relentless bass that Never Say Die is known for, JR Sound co was rung up for their Darnley Sound Lab Sub System; all bodies in this sold out audience got a better understanding of when people say that bass was meant to be felt, not heard.
If this event proved anything, it’s that all hidden bassheads in town have officially been brought out of hiding. It was a sold out event, but you could tell that everyone was there because they wanted to be. In addition to spotting a healthy amount of Bass Music artist swag on in the venue, we noticed the excitement came from a recognition of a good majority of the beats. Classic tracks, unreleased bootlegs, and even some IDs you can still only hear on a YouTube rip were recognized and appreciated amongst the group of fans.
