Travis
Barker, Yelawolf, Wynter Gordon and Flavor Flav rang in 2013 at Palms Casino
Resort in Las Vegas last night.
Blink
182 drummer, Travis Barker, teamed up with rapper Yelawolf to bring their new
collaborative project to Rain. The tattooed duo arrived in style for the New
Year’s Eve celebrations. Travis strutted into the club sporting camouflage
cargo shorts, low-top Converse Chuck Taylors, a Famous Stars and Straps
sleeveless shirt and backwards hat, and holding his signature drumsticks.
Yelawolf was right next to him also in a Famous Stars and Straps shirt, dark
jeans, high-ankle boots, sunglasses, and smoking a cigarette and drinking a
beer.
Right
before midnight, the pair rushed the stage and immediately exploded into a
performance of Beastie Boys’ ‘Fight For Your Right.’ The crowd went crazy as
Travis pounded his drums and Yelawolf chugged a beer and Rain’s fireballs shot
from the roof. After their dynamic and aggressive entrance, Yelawolf thanked
the crowd for spending New Year’s Eve with him and Travis then asked the crowd
to help them countdown to the New Year. Starting at ten, the entire crowd
counted along with Yelawolf on the microphone and Travis striking his
drumsticks together. At the stroke of midnight, confetti exploded eclipsing the
nightclub, couples kissed and friends embraced. As the confetti started to
settle, Barker started an epic drum solo that transitioned into ‘Push Em,’ the
new recently released song on the twosome’s extended-play tracklist
collaboration, “Psycho White.” The Alabama MC and Blink-182 drummer continued
to perform their rap-rock team-up hits including ‘Funky Shit’, ‘6 Feet
Underground’ and ‘Whistle Dixie’ for the at-capacity nightclub. When the set
was over, Yelawolf wished everyone a Happy New Year and Barker threw his
drumsticks to the crowd before they both joined about 20 friends in Rain’s Sky
Boxes where they drank Jack Daniels, Grey Goose and Pabst Blue Ribbon.
Wynter Gordon |
At
Moon Nightclub, Wynter Gordon counted down the New Year and seduced the crowd
with a thrilling performance. The Jamaican beauty dazzled in a leather
mirco-mini dress, sexy leggings and sky-high stilettos. The pop princess
performed her popular hits ‘Til Death’, ‘Buy My Love’ and the popular ‘Dirty
Talk.’
Also
nearby in ghostbar, Flavor Flav and Criss Angel enjoyed Perrier-Jouët Champagne
at a table over-looking the city with a large group of friends. Around 3 a.m.
the Cirque du Soleil magician requested to have Public Enemy songs played. When
the DJ played ‘911 Is a Joke,’ to everyone’s surprise, Flavor Flav grabbed the
microphone and performed the entire song in a long fur coat and pants. The
entire club went crazy as guests snapped pictures and sang along assuring this
would be a New Years they will never forget.
