text: I have never eaten here. I cannot remember ever drinking here (but I might have). \n\nFor the longest time, I did not even know what it was called (for some reason, I thought it was named Brand). \n\nAnyway, before you flag my review for being improperly published, imagining I have never been an actual patron of whatever this place is called, hear me out. \n\nI have been here several times. I am pretty sure this is one of ONLY two venues -- Hard Rock Cafe exactly across the street is the other -- to have afforded Las Vegas' own Imagine Dragons the opportunity to headline on the strip before they became as popular that they are now, where they find themselves headlining The Joint. \n\nAnd selling it out. \n\nBartenders were always nice when I had dumb ass questions about a band they had never heard of.\n\nE: Is this where Imagine Dragons is playing tonight? \nBartender: Uh, I am not sure. I thought it was Zowie Bowie. Normally it is Zowie Bowie, bud. \nE: Oh. If there is a show going on tonight, it will be Imagine Dragons. It's probably Imagine Dragons tonight if anyone asks. They are popular locally.\nBartender: Ah, I see. Weird name. \nE: Yeah. Almost as strange as Zowie. Bowie. \n\nI never did get to hear ZB perform live here, but ID rocked this motherfucking space, that's for sure. One performance was so long that it had to include an intermission and a plethora of covers since their catalog was so short. Free. - E
