Mexican Metal Parody Band Moderatto To Play At HOB LV!

Mexican metal parody band Moderatto brings 15 years of total and absolute rock ‘n’ roll to the House of Blues Las Vegas on April 3.

Moderatto is, has been, and always will be, the sublimation of the rock ‘n’ roll fantasies of five best friends who share a taste for good music, rock, party, and lack of control. Coming from not so diverse origins, all south of the city of Mexico, Xavi, Bryan Amadeus, Roy, Elohim and Mick unite their minds and hearts to bring the word of rock to the length and width of the Mexican Republic, the United States and the rest of the world. It started out as “just one night,” but that one night has lasted 15 years.

From Patagonia to New York; from Spain to Japan, Moderatto seems to have conquered the world. The band’s seven studio albums of covers and originals, two live albums, and the collaboration with Alejandra Guzmán, the Queen of Rock, have been the fuel that drives this great fantasy rock.

Monday, April 3, 2017
Doors: 7 p.m.
Show: 8 p.m.
18+

Tickets for Moderatto XV start at $25, plus applicable fees and  are now on sale. Follow House of Blues Las Vegas on Twitter - twitter.com/HOBLasVegas. Tickets are available by visiting HouseofBlues.com, MandalayBay.com, Ticketmaster.com or by calling 702-632-7600.

Newest Transformer Star Isabela Moner To Receive Award At CinemaCon®

Isabela Moner will receive the “CinemaCon® Rising Star of the Year Award,” it was announced today by CinemaCon Managing Director, Mitch Neuhauser. CinemaCon, the official convention of The National Association of Theatre Owners (NATO) will be held March 27-30, 2017 at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas. Moner will be presented with this special honor at the “CinemaCon Big Screen Achievement Awards” ceremony taking place on the evening of Thursday, March 30, at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace, hosted by the Coca-Cola Company, the official presenting sponsor of CinemaCon.

“With a starring turn in her first big budget action packed feature film, Moner is sure to make her name known to audiences around the world when she stars in this summer’s ‘Transformers: The Last Knight,’” noted Neuhauser. “We are thrilled to honor this young talent with this year’s ‘CinemaCon Rising Star of the Year Award.’”

Moner will star this summer in “Transformers: The Last Knight,” releasing in theatres nationwide on June 23, 2017 via Paramount Pictures. “The Last Knight” shatters the core myths of the Transformers franchise, and redefines what it means to be a hero. Humans and Transformers are at war and Optimus Prime is gone. The key to saving our future lies buried in the secrets of the past, in the hidden history of Transformers on Earth. Saving our world falls upon the shoulders of an unlikely alliance: Cade Yeager (Mark Wahlberg); Bumblebee; an English Lord (Anthony Hopkins); and an Oxford Professor (Laura Haddock). There comes a moment in everyone’s life when we are called upon to make a difference.  In “Transformers: The Last Knight,” the hunted will become heroes.  Heroes will become villains.  Only one world will survive: theirs, or ours.

Best known for her starring role as CJ on Nickelodeon’s “100 Things To Do Before High School,” actress, singer, dancer and songwriter Moner has appeared in “Legends of the Hidden Temple: The Movie,” and “Middle School: The Worst Years of my Life.” In addition to “Transformers: The Last Knight” Moner will star opposite Benicio Del Toro and Josh Brolin in “Soldado,” the highly anticipated sequel to “Sicario.”

CinemaCon is delighted to have both the International Cinema Technology Association (ICTA) and National Association of Concessionaires (NAC) as its tradeshow partners. CinemaCon is also delighted to have as its official presenting sponsor, The Coca-Cola Company, one of the industry’s greatest and highly regarded and respected partners in the world of the movies.
