The Joint is a 4,000 seat[1] showroom located inside the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Paradise, Nevada. This is a common venue for classic rock and modern rock bands in the Las Vegas Valley.[2]
The versatility of the venue is demonstrated by its ability to host other events like the World Extreme Cagefighting[3] and TNA Wrestling iMPACT!.[4]
The Joint tends to book groups who traditionally favor arena types of venues.
