Saturday Night, August 23, 2025
After a very trying week, I headed to Arizona Charlie's on North Decatur to catch one of my all-time favorite local bands in Las Vegas. I needed a dose of High Octane! Last night, the Coverall Lounge inside Arizona Charlie's turned into a full-blown dance party marathon.
{About High Octane}
High Octane has built a stellar reputation across the Las Vegas music scene, earning multiple “Best of Las Vegas” awards over the years. And known as one of the top dance bands for their energetic and engaging atmosphere, they create! Their repertoire spans multiple genres, including rock, dance, funk, country, and beyond, making them a crowd-pleasing fixture at venues ranging from casino lounges to the grand resort stages for which Las Vegas is renowned.
Last night, High Octane delivered a wildly diverse and very entertaining song list, from the top 70s classics to current chart-toppers in today's music world. Including "Play That Funky Music", "Boogie Shoes", "Hold On Loosely", "Bad Girls", "Sweet Child Of Mine", "Cupid Shuffle", "Highway To Hell", "Summer Of '69", and "You Shook Me All Night Long". And that's exactly what High Octane did last night! The dance floor was full and was shaking "All Night Long"!

{About the venue and the band}
Intimate Vibe, Explosive Sound, and a dance party feel, All Night Long!
The Coverall Lounge is cozy enough for personal connection, yet spacious enough to house a full-blown dance party atmosphere.
High Octane brought the energy, while the Coverall lounge brought the vibe Saturday night!
Arizona Charlie’s Decatur is a classic locals' casino, known for its approachable charm and reliable entertainment lineup. Rich in history and character, it's an excellent stage for a band like High Octane that thrives on genuine engagement with its fans.
{My Take}
It just doesn't get any better than last night!
Let's do it again!
