Last evening I had the pleasure of seeing the first concert (if you don’t count the grand opening last weekend) at The Smith Center for the Performing Arts as Bela Fleck and the Flecktones performed in front of a packed house. It was hard not to marvel at Reynolds Hall when you first walked in and I know I wasn’t the only one who kept looking around at every little detail imaginable. The Smith Center is absolutely gorgeous, the sounds quality has to be the best in town, even the seats are comfy and have plenty of room and quite frankly, the venue is going to change the performing arts scene in Las Vegas. It truly is an exciting time for the Las Vegas community and to see the direction the performing arts program in the city is headed. I highly recommend if you have an opportunity to see a performance at The Smith Center, you do so.
As for the concert itself, wow. With the original lineup intact, it was a wonderful evening of talented musicians on stage, sharing their love of music for over two hours. Here are some photos below taken by Erik Kabik (www.erikkabik.com).
