  • Venue / The Joint At Hard Rock Hotel & Casino
  • Event / VIVA! Hysteria Residency

The first show by the band in this city since June 2012 on the Rock Of Ages tour.

The third time at this venue.

The venue is located in the Paradise area of central Las Vegas and connected to the Hard Rock Hotel And Casino and close to the McCarran International airport.

It was opened in March 1995 and later renovated in 2009.

The venue and hotel were closed in February 2020.

The band opened the night as "Ded Flatbird" playing a set of rare songs before a short intermission. In all 24 songs were played in the longest setlist of any North American show in the band's history.

The full 'Hysteria' album was then played before a two song encore to finish.

B-Side 'Good Morning Freedom' played for the first time since 1980 with a short bit of a The Who's 'Won't Get Fooled' at the start after the studio song was played on the PA.

'Wasted' was played in the USA for the first time since 2nd May 2003 in Tupelo, MS.
