Nothing says the holidays are here like Christmas songs performed with a rockabilly twist and big band backup. The Brian Setzer Orchestra will be presenting its Christmas Rocks! extravaganza at The Joint in the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino on Wednesday, December 23 at 8 p.m. Setzer and his 18-piece big band will perform all the Christmas classics from his “Christmas Rocks!†CD with a swing, rockabilly twist. Given that this swingin’ cat has had a 30-year music career, including three Grammy awards, Setzer most likely be performing some of his fans’ favorites that made said awards possible. Tickets go on sale Oct. 3 at noon, but don’t wait too long to purchase them because his one-night Las Vegas appearance will sell out quickly even though The Joint accommodates 4,000 (including luxury suites and the VIP Studio, of course). Prices start at $59.50 and are available at the Hard Rock Hotel box office and online at Ticketmaster.
