      Ralph Carrera told me the first ones were in 2000 & 2001. Las Vegas Grind was in '99 and there was a "Crap Out" in 1995.

      Late '80s, what? As far as I know the first Las Vegas Grind & Viva Las Vegas fests didn't happen until the late '90s, like '98 or '99, if I remember correctly. The first Shakedown came around a few years later. Hot Rod Ron said:
      Does anyone know if there will be one next year and if so what the dates will be. I used to go to the ones in the late 80's and through the 90's

      Had a blast! The first day was confusion since no one knew who was playing at what times. We figured it out and by the second day they seemed to have had their shit more together. Either way, lots of bad ass bands and amazing performances! Already looking forward to next year!
      I'll post some pics. Also have like a 1 min. clip of The Rip Offs playing Zodiac. Kick ass friggin' show!!
      Thought I had a clip of Lords of Altamont but apparently erased somehow- bummer!

      By the way, is it just me, or does it look like they've combined all of these fests into one now (LV Grind, Vegas Shakedown and Viva Las Vegas)?
