Taken from Calendarlive.com: ...For instance, the Empire Ballroom, featuring private booths and VIP bottle service, held its grand opening celebrations last weekend starting with a show by punk stalwarts Bad Religion. Just before going onstage, singer Greg Graffin fretted about the entire experience, especially the $35 ticket price and that no one under 21 was allowed into the club.

"I'm worried about that," Graffin says. "One of the things that still makes us viable is that the people that are excluded from this show still turn up in droves to see Bad Religion. I can't overstate that this is not a typical Bad Religion show."

So what has changed in Las Vegas these past few years? Graffin's simple explanation: "The demographic who will pay for a rock show is getting older."
