Gong Show Karaoke

Gong Show Karaoke every Tuesday night from 8-11pm at Rum Bullions Island Bar inside the Silver Legacy, hosted by Teen Idol Trey Valentine. This has all the laughs of Karaoke, with the added fun of “Gonging” the contestants that should really just leave the singing to the privacy of their own cars!
