The new Stampede Casino is one of the best in the city. They have cheap food specials everyday, the card tables are clean and new and they have been booking some great bands lately.
Now I know they're advertising New Years Eve with Glass Tiger, but they really have had good bands perform here. I caught Seven Mary Three in September and missed both Soul Asylum and Blind Melon who also played there in the last month or so. Yeah, they book bands like the Stampeders too, but sometimes, sometimes, they get good acts.
Just a clean, professional casino and their Big Sky Showroom is a great venue for bands because it's not big and offers a real intimate setting. I hope they keep booking good acts. I'll be back if they do. Plus, I want to take advantage of their cheap steak sandwich on Friday afternoons....
