Bursting on to the music scene with the release of Ledbetter Heights in 1995, Shepherd’s debut album reached platinum status with such hits as “Deja. Voodoo,” “Born With A Broken Heart” and “Aberdeen.”

In 2007, Shepherd released a full-length documentary with an accompanying album entitled 10 Days Out: Blues From The Backroads.
The film follows Shepherd and his friends on a ten-day trek into the heart of America visiting blues veterans at their homes, and features some of the most renowned blues artists of all time including B.B. King, Clarence “Gatemouth” Brown and Pinetop Perkins
In addition to a string of No. 1 hits, Shepherd has received four Grammy nominations, two Billboard Music Awards, two Orville H. Gibson Awards and a Blues Music Award among other accolades.

On Feb. 27, Zero Gravity Corporation’s (Zero-G), G-Force One will take off from Las Vegas McCarran Airport, offering fliers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to defy the laws of gravity.
Guests will have the unique opportunity to float freely in complete weightlessness during Zero-G’s weightless flight. Zero-G is the first and only FAA-approved provider of commercial weightless flights.
Zero-G guests will receive pre-flight training to maximize their Zero-G experience, private transportation to and from McCarran Airport, Zero-G flight suit and patch, personal photography, post-flight re-gravitation party, weightless flight award certificate, and branded Zero-G gifts.
Guests can fly, do flips and hang in the air.
Zero-G replicates the same levels of weightlessness enjoyed on Mars (1/3-gravity), the moon (1/6-gravity), and zero gravity.
It’s an experience unlike any other. Martha Stewart, Joey Fatone, Ozzy Osbourne, Rob Dyrdek, Beatrice of York, Professor Stephen Hawking, Billy Bush, Gavin Newsom, Burt Rutan, Miles O’Brien and cast members of “The Apprentice,” and “The Biggest Loser” are past passengers with Zero-G.

The Loews Lake Las Vegas announced the creation of a new courtyard — ideal for both weddings and meeting functions — and a partnership with the exclusive South Shore Golf Club on the lake.
In addition, the lobby of the hotel has been completely redesigned and refurnished, including a contemporary patio that features fountains, three fire pits and views of Lake Las Vegas.
Since 2007, the hotel has undergone a series of renovations including a complete redesign of the main restaurant, Rick’s Café, and updating of the pool decks, cabanas and palm-shaded terraces, including the creation of a Kids Pool Cabana in partnership with Fisher-Price.
All guestrooms were upgraded with 32-inch flat-panel TVs and in-room coffee makers, and guest bathrooms were enhanced to include lighted make-up mirrors, updated vanity areas and new hairdryers.
The hotel’s Presidential and Casbah suites have all been completely redone.
All of the meeting space has new carpeting.
