This week’s 5 best bets for live music in Las Vegas
Jennifer Nettles
Jennifer Nettles is back with a new solo album, “Playing with Fire,” which is due out May 13. Before the record drops, Nettles is playing a Saturday show at The Pearl at the Palms. Tickets range from $45.85 to $82.57, and the show starts at 8 p.m.
Panic! At the Disco
Panic! at the Disco is set to return to Las Vegas on Thursday for a show at the Boulevard Pool at The Cosmopolitan with Atlas Genius, Andrew McMahon, the Wilderness, Borns and Andrew Watt. Tickets for X107.5’s “Our Big Concert” are $42.50, and the show starts at 6 p.m.
Selena Gomez
Selena Gomez, who undoubtedly soundtracked many a lost weekend in Las Vegas last summer with tracks such as “Good for You” from her album “Revival,” returns to town to bring those tunes to life at the Mandalay Bay Events Center on Friday. Tickets for the show, which also features Joe Jonas’ band DNCE, range from $43.07 to $115.60.
Daddy Yankee vs. Don Omar
The MGM Grand Garden arena has hosted its share of prizefights over the years, but it’s probably never seen a card like this one. Daddy Yankee and Don Omar are set to square off to determine who gets the keys to the reggaeton kingdom. Get a ringside seat Friday. Tickets range from $44 to $159, and the show starts at 8 p.m.
Umphrey’s McGee
Umphrey’s McGee is due back at Brooklyn Bowl for a pair of shows. Friday features UMBowl VII, a night of music in which fans get to interact directly with the band, from picking songs to submitting themes. Tickets are $142. Saturday, meanwhile, is a straightforward set. Tickets for that show are $35.
