Harrah’s Resort has Jerry Springer hosting The Price Is Right.

Just good ol’ Barry Manilow on Sept. 8 after Labor Day for Revel? Is that all there is? No way will Revel stay dark in Ovation Hall for an extended period. Too much at stake.
Gotta hand it to the Trop. They make things interesting with their blend of entertainment — classic rock to contemporary comedy to mixed martial arts, a little bootie-shaking disco and a soulful empress. Nice mix.

Melissa Etheridge’s music first put her in the spotlight in the late 1980s-early 1990s with such signature songs as “Bring Me Some Water,” “Come to My Window” and “I’m the Only One.” Her fierce vocal style with its Janis Joplin-like rasp, and her self-penned songs, which were a masterful blend of blues and folk-rock, found overwhelming commercial success in 1993 with the album Yes I Am, selling six million copies.
