Brooklyn Bowl on the LINQ Promenade pairs a 2,000-capacity concert room with 32 bowling lanes and Blue Ribbon kitchen service. Most nights are touring rock, soul or funk.

House of Blues inside Mandalay Bay holds 1,800 standing for touring rock, blues, country and tribute residencies. Smaller floor and balcony than the Brooklyn Bowl room.
Tip: Gospel Brunch on Sundays sells out. The restaurant-bar opens at 07:00 so you can eat before doors open at 19:00 most show nights.
