A good bartender is a lot of things to different people- a joke teller, a shrink, an advisor, a best friend, and of course, a dispenser of adult beverages. Of course, in the case of a casino bartender, there are usually a few additional roles they are required to play. Recently, I spent some time chatting with Lamista Hackworth, a bartender at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Tampa, Florida. Over the course a few delicious mimosas, and a few (dozen) hands of video poker, I asked Lamista to share her insights into what it’s like being a casino bartender.

Are you ready to rock? Well this is the summer to do it. Over the past few years, we have seen a surge of bands from the 70â??s and 80â??s reunite to give their fans one last chance to hear their favorite songs from years gone by. The Eagles rocked it out in 2014 with their 40th anniversary tour. Motley Crue had their Farewell Tour last year, and other rock legends including The Rolling Stones, The Who, KISS and others have been filling stadiums and concert venues alike, and the fans love it! It gives them the chance to break out their old concert tee-shirts, or buy vintage ones on Ebay, and go hang out with thousands of other like they did years ago, now a few years older, grayer, and perhaps slower, but still ready to let the good times roll.
Here are a few of our top Summer Tours you will definitely want to catch!
