In 2007, the band released the album Still Kool with the single Steppin’ Into Love, which became its first entry on Billboard’s Hot R&B/Hip-Hop chart since 1989.
South Padre is a 300-seat venue offering an open exterior bar for customers to see lounge entertainment taking place inside the venue. The show is free of charge and open to all ages. Guests under 21 must be accompanied by an adult. Entry is first-come, first-served and based upon venue capacity.

Filed Under Las Vegas, Las Vegas Casinos, Las Vegas Entertainment, Las Vegas Shows, Orleans Casino Hotel | Comments Off
He’s the legendary comedy performer – “Mr. Warmth,” Don Rickles. Returning to the city where he first starred as a headliner more than 50 years ago, Rickles will be performing at The Orleans Showroom at 8 p.m. each evening March 20, 21 and 22.
Rickles took his first step toward national fame in 1957, when Frank Sinatra wandered in to the small Hollywood nightclub where Rickles was performing. The still-unknown Rickles eyed Sinatra and said, “I just saw your movie, The Pride and the Passion, and I want to tell you, the cannon’s acting was great. And, make yourself at home, Frank. Hit somebody.” Sinatra doubled up laughing and became one of Rickles’ biggest boosters among Hollywood celebrities. He soon became the “in” comic among the Hollywood stars, who flocked to his nightclub engagements to become the targets of his “insults.” Read more
