#1935 - Mermaid's Casino, Las Vegas - 10/12/2012

When what is now Mermaid's Casino opened in the summer of 1956 it was the first two level club in Las Vegas and the "motor stairs" were the first in Las Vegas. (Las Vegas Sun)  Mermaids is now a small, kitschy casino with a snack bar and no web page except Facebook.

#1930 - The Griffin, Las Vegas - 10/10/2012

The Griffin, Las Vegas, NV

Vegas is not known for it's charm or nuance, but for people who love bars with a distinctive personality, the East Fremont area offers three quite nice alternatives: The Downtown Cocktail Room, the Beauty Bar, and the Griffin. The Griffin is dark and old school. It hosts bands and serves Hamms to hipsters, but it is also fairly ornate, romantic, and traditional. I stayed a longer than I expected on my bar hopping, enjoying the music in the back room from Rusty Maples.

#1929 - Beauty Bar, Las Vegas - 10/10/2012

On Fremont Street, just across Las Vegas Boulevard from the lights and zip-lines of the "Fremont Street Experience," downtown Las Vegas begins in earnest. It's a shabby area, working on upgrading itself, and at this point most the tourist traffic ends and local hipsters gather at the Beauty Bar and The Griffin. The Beauty Bar is a chain with joints in New York, San Francisco, Austin and a few other towns, all modeled like 1950s beauty salons. This one is said to be a bit more divey than the others. They have DJs 7 nights a week and sometimes live music or burlesque shows.
