Lacy J. Dalton in April, Two TJ's Corral June Concerts, More

Comedy Hypnotist Chris Cady – Tonight

Chris Cady’s Comedy Hypnosis Show is tonight in the Valley Ballroom and it is not too late to get tickets. The doors open at 7:00, the show starts at 7:30 p.m. and tickets are $15 at the hotel desk or call 775-783-6606. 21 or over for this show. Want to be one of the on-stage "subjects?" Get near the stage and wave your arms when Chris asks for volunteers!

Before We Start the Outdoor Concert Series:

Lacy J. Dalton, one of the most distinctive female country singers of the '80s, will perform in the intimate setting of our Valley Ballroom on Friday evening, April 8.  Born Jill Lynne Byrem in Pennsylvania, she performed as a protest-oriented folksinger during the ‘60s in Santa Cruz and sang with a Bay Area psychedelic rock band called Office. She went on to reinvent herself as a country performer, adopting the stage name Lacy J. Dalton.

Her Top 20 debut single, "Crazy Blue Eyes," helped her win the CMA's Best New Female Vocalist of the Year Award in 1983. She scored an impressive run of hits over the next three years highlighted by "Hard Times," "Tennessee Waltz," "Hillbilly Girl with the Blues," the number two smash "Takin' It Easy," "16th Avenue," and "Everybody Makes Mistakes."  All but "Tennessee Waltz" made the Top Ten. Tickets are $20 at the CVI hotel desk or call 775-783-6606.

TJ’s Corral Concert News:

• Since We Last Saw Them: They were inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame, visited with friends President George H. W. Bush and Barbara at Taste of Texas, did a session with Blake Shelton, won a GMA Dove Award for Country Song of the Year 2015 “Sweet Jesus,” mingled with Taylor Swift and her parents backstage after her October 17 show at AT&T Stadium, received the Bob Hope Award for Excellence in Entertainment by the Congressional Medal of Honor Society . . . and that’s only some of what The Oak Ridge Boys have been up to. Oh, and now to the reason we brought it up: After performing to a Sold Out crowd in TJ’s Coral in May of 2014, The ORB will be back again on Saturday, June 25!
• It All Started with a Beer is a song that really isn’t about beer. On the other hand, “Sunshine
  
  and Whiskey” is somewhat about whiskey. You’ll hear both of these hits and more when Country artist Frankie Ballard takes the stage at TJ’s Corral on Thursday, June 2.
• Ticket Availability: as soon as we have tickets available for these and other to-be-announced concerts, we’ll post the information on this page on our website. Depending on timing, we’ll try to give you a heads-up in this blog which is new every Wednesday morning at 7 a.m. Speaking of heads-up, next week we’ll cover some improvements we're making in TJ’s Corral with construction starting in early March.

Birds of Prey and Birds of Clay This Weekend:
It happens every year on the third weekend of February: the annual Carson Valley Inn Clay Shooting event and the Chamber of Commerce Eagles and Agriculture event combine to produce what can be a most interesting mixture of guests at the CVI. The clay shooters bring shotguns, chokes, shells, ATVs, and whatever else they need to survive 2 – 3 hours out in the middle of nowhere trying to break clay targets. The Eagles and Ag participants bring cameras, tripods, lenses and whatever else they need to survive 4+ hours riding from ranch to ranch in search of an elusive raptor image caught at the perfect moment. The two groups have co-existed for almost 15 years . . . if only our political parties could do the same!

Free Cabaret Lounge Entertainment:

• George Pickard is here tonight, Decades entertains Thursday through Saturday and Jonathon “JB” Barton returns Sunday through Wednesday.
• Decades is one of our most energetic, vibrant and diverse groups! From Chuck Berry's Johnny B. Goode to Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars’ Uptown Funk, Decades’ 4-part harmonies and driving rhythm section truly shine when playing hits from the 1950's to today.  The group includes Samantha Francis (keyboard, harmonica, guitar, flute and vocals), Ben Ruttenberg (keyboards, guitar, vocals), Billy DiBono (drums, vocals), Will Watje (guitar, sax, vocals), and Tobias Brooks (bass, guitar, vocals). 

Race and Sports Book:

• This week you can watch and bet Horseracing, NBA and College Basketball, NHL Hockey and Sunday’s Daytona 500. We’re also taking action on the Donald Cerrone vs. Alex Oliveira UFC fight in Pittsburg, PA on Sunday.
• Looking ahead, the odds are up for who will win the Masters Golf Tournament April 7 – 10 at Augusta.
• Baseball Fever Starts Tomorrow as pitchers and catchers for the Cardinals, Diamondbacks, Giants, Phillies & Reds have their first workout. The rest of the MLB teams get cranking over the following four days.
• And Ends with the World Series in October and the odds are up as to who will win the Fall Classic. The three favorites at our Sports Book as of yesterday, all at 8-1, were the Giants, Cubs and Red Sox. The longshots? The Braves, Rockies and Phillies.

Comedy Hypnotist, Cash Party, Valentine's Day Dining, Mother's Day Weekend Package, More

Comedy Hypnotist Chris Cady – Whatcha Need to Know!

We’ve received questions regarding Hypnotist Chris Cady’s Comedy Hypnosis Show in the Valley ballroom on Wednesday night, February 17. The two most common are “how do I volunteer to get hypnotized?” and “who makes the best subjects?” According to Chris, women make the best subjects - especially creative, artistic women. He also indicated that over the years he has hypnotized plenty of men including entire football teams and U.S. Marines! Regarding who gets to join him on stage, Chris was very clear in pointing out that no one is forced. He suggests you just be in the front and “jump up and down” when he asks for volunteers. For more on how the show transpires, check the video above or read this story in The Record Courier posted by Sarah Hauck who interviewed Chris a few days ago. As a reminder, the doors open at 7:00, the show starts at 7:30 p.m. and tickets are just $15 at the hotel desk or call 775-783-6606. 21 or over for this show.

You Overdid it on Super Bowl Sunday? Perhaps you stayed out too late at a Super Bowl party. Perhaps you drank too much before and during the game. Or, perhaps you were basing your financial future on Carolina and the overs. Here are a few ways to try to “atone.” They may or may not work for you, but they are definitely worth a try:

• Valentine’s Day Dinner: CV Steak and Katie's are each offering two Valentine's Day dinner specials in addition to our regular menu items this Sunday. Information on the specials is at this link. Reservations are a must in CV Steak so call today: 775-783-6650.

• Mother’s Day Weekend Getaway: a great getaway whether you’re trying to get out of the doghouse or just want to surprise your spouse: A hotel room for Friday and Saturday night, May 6 & 7 plus a $60 dining card for use in CV Steak, Katie’s or Job’s Perk during your stay. The details are at this link. 

Love + Luck = Lots of Cash!

In conjunction with our two sister properties, Sharkey's Casino and Bodines Casino, our $80,000 All Cash Love & Luck Giveaways promotion kicks into gear this Sunday, February 14  with daily swipe & win at the casino kiosks, Friday and Saturday night drawings, Cash Parties on February 27 and March 19, and grand prize drawings on March 31!  We're starting this promotion on Valentine's Day - most commonly associated with Love, and continuing it through the month of March anchored by St. Patrick's Day, most commonly associated with Luck. Everyone likes, appreciates and prefers an all-cash promotion once in a while so we're offering many opportunities to luck into some money as we spread around a total of $80,000 with every penny of it being given away in cash!  As always, we include the following which gets us off the hook for any "that's not what we got from reading your blog" claims: Complete promotion details are available at the Guest Services counter at all three locations.

But First, More Cash Saturday: Our $75,000 King of Cash Promotion finale is this Saturday with a Cash Party from 1 to 8 p.m.  Events include drawings, hot seat giveaways, lite snacks and over $10,000 in cash combined between CVI and Bodines Casino including two guaranteed $1000 cash winners – one at CVI and one at Bodines Casino.

Free Cabaret Lounge Entertainment: Steve Lord is here tonight, The Blues Monsters entertain Thursday through Saturday and George Pickard returns Sunday through Wednesday. The Blues Monsters is a popular red-hot rockin' blues band from the North Lake Tahoe and Reno area. The quartet performs a powerfully unique combination of R&B, funk, jazz, and Chicago-style blues. Whether paying respects to the masters of traditional blues, or rockin' out other tunes, The Blues Monsters get the whole house up and dancing!

Race and Sports Book:

Comedy Hypnotist, Tailgate Party, Skip Work, Lots More

The doors open at 7:00, the show starts at 7:30 p.m. and the price is the same whether you sit in the audience and watch, or volunteer to be up on stage to be hypnotized: just $15!

Congressman Joe Heck

• Our apologies to the Douglas County Republican Party for not mentioning your big upcoming event when we covered a few of the upcoming community events happening at the CVI a couple of weeks ago in our blog.

Make Valentine’s Day Dinner Plans Now!

CV Steak and Katie’s are both offering two Valentine's Day Specials in addition to our regular menu items. Reservations are strongly recommended in CV Steak, call 775-783-6650.

Skip Work and Come to the CVI? This would have been good advice for some people during January when you could say that CVI casino players experienced a “Perfect 10!” In addition to the 100+ cash prizes we gave out in the first four weeks of our $75,000 King of Cash Giveaways, we also paid out ten slot jackpots of $10,000 or more.  Add all that to the many other jackpots of less than $10,000 and we get back to our original premise that, for some, it would’ve been more profitable to spend 40 hours a week playing the slots here at the CVI than going to work! While we’re on the subject, this article from a year ago delves into the whole concept of making the Monday after Super Bowl a national holiday. The theory is that so many people wind up “calling in sick (which, frankly, doesn’t fool any employer) anyway . . . Well, you get the point.

Free Cabaret Lounge Entertainment: The Jonny Smokes one man band show is here tonight, After Dark entertains Thursday through Sunday, Melissa Dru and her band take the cabaret stage on Saturday afternoon for our Tailgate Party, and Steve Lord returns Monday through Wednesday.  The high energy of the After Dark Band will have you up and dancing and singing along with the guys! Their “must not miss” show is filled with the songs you know and love and the energy of the group creates a party just waiting for you to join in. With Bernie DeLaCruz and Dave Vasquez on guitar, Dustin Taunton on bass, Don Peterson on drums and Scott Anderson on vocals this award winning band will get you rockin’!

Race and Sports Book:

• Guaranteed $5,142 Pro PK’EM Progressive Jackpot! We’ve come to the end of the football season with money still in the “pot” so we are guaranteeing to give away the $5,142 Pro PK’EM Progressive Jackpot after this Sunday’s Game!! We have a $5 parlay card out with 15 prop bets on the Super Bowl Game. The props are easy to understand like over or under on largest lead of the game or longest field goal of the game, does the team that scores first win the game, etc. This Part Is Very Important: Whoever gets the most of the15 picks correct wins! No rollover to next week – the $5,142 has to go . . . so please do not throw away your ticket. We will go through all the tickets on Monday and, depending on how many have piled up from the CVI, Bodines Casino and Sharkey’s Casino, we should know by the end of the day the number of tickets with the most correct picks - could be one ticket, could be five tickets. If it is more than one, the pot is split. We have no way of knowing who has the winning ticket(s) . . . it’s kinda like the lottery except a lot less zeros at the end of the jackpot amount! As a convenience to those who do play tickets, we’ll post the number of correct picks it took to win the jackpot on this page on our website as soon as we are done tabulating! 
• This week you can watch and bet the Super Bowl, Horseracing, NBA and College Basketball and NHL Hockey.  We are also taking action on Saturday’s Johny Hendricks vs. Stephen Thompson UFC fight and some of the undercard fights.
• Mike’s horse Casino Fever won the 3^rd race at Santa Anita last Saturday with Martin Pedroza on board.
