So I heard that 'The End' moved to a new location, and luckily they kept most of the decor that became part of their bar renovation on the Bar Rescue show. The End also used to be called 'The Underworld', although it seems like they still operate under that name every now and then as a secondary thing. \n\nThere's not really a lot of 'punk', 'goth' or 'psychobilly' places here in Las Vegas that can be local hotspots for those who are into the alternative lifestyle--really, the only one we have here is perhaps the Double Down Saloon located near UNLV (super hardcore punk-azz place BTW; reminded me of CGBG a lot), or the Las Vegas Country Saloon where they showcase punk rock, metal, rockabilly, etc. bands. To have more places where all the 'punx\" and 'spooky Betties' can hang out is always a nice touch.\n\nThe bartenders have been polite to me and my group the both times I went there. I finally got around to trying their infamous drink-in-a-huge-plastic-\u00adsyringe called the 'Zombie Antidote'. The mix had vodka in it, so it was going to be bitter but had enough of other sweet things to it that made drinking from a syringe enjoyable. I wish I was able to keep the syringe, though (seems like they don't let you keep them).\n\nI also tried their Double Tap, and I think a drink called 'Lost Vegas'. The former is a another sweet mix, and it even has pop rocks in the drink. The latter is sweet as well and tasted like an alcoholic version of soda or so.\n\nTheir pizzas are pretty good, and I liked how they had a zombie theme to it as well. I forgot what pizza I ordered, but the flavors really popped with the garlic and herbs or so.\n\nAs for the music? Dunno if much has changed but the last time I was there, they had dubstep music playing and other stuff I can't even comprehend. It didn't really fit with the horror theme to be quite honest. Ugh, where the hell is the White Zombie? The Cramps? The Meteors? Misfits?? Heck, even the dubstep version of Rob Zombie's \"Dragula\" would do.\n\nAs I mentioned earlier, I went here twice: the first time was on a Saturday night, the week before Halloween and the second time was on a typical Monday night. Now I don't know if it was just for some sort of Halloween special or not, but one of their bartenders was dressed up as a psychobilly chick and I thought that was pretty cool.\n\nThere seems to be more people on the weekends than on weekdays, but that's to be expected. Monday night was really quiet, even when 10PM hit. The End hosts 'scary karaoke' nights on weekends, however. Sounds fun--I can finally get my horror-punk, doo-wop 'Saturday Night' song on by the Misfits on these nights (P.S. If you like the Misfits, request to sing their songs! One of the bartender dudes I spoke to is a fan of them and I asked if they had any punk rock songs on their playlist).\n\nThere used to be a Goth/Industrial scene going on here, on Fridays, called 'Carpe Noctem'. I heard that it got shut down due to the event holder's health, and also something about how The End is growing and they need a different game plan from now on. :( Such a shame, since this is one of Vegas's few yet real Industrial scenes. But hey, if The End is growing in business, at least that's a good thing. Although now it seems that the bar owners are doing their own kind of goth night thing on these nights.\n\nI don't know if they have local bands play at their venue, but if they do then that's pretty cool. I do know that they host all these other music-related, one-time special events--usually some sort of concert after-party or so.\n\nOh, and speaking of events--The End is the real deal for those who are fans of 'The Walking Dead'. They host a lot of Walking Dead watch parties. So if you wanna get into the mood for some zombie fun, go here!
