Mötley Crüe Front Man Vince Neil Partners with Vegas Restaurateurs To Bring His Tatuado Brand to Circus Circus

In an effort to bring the rock ‘n’ roll vibe of the Sunset Strip to Las Vegas,
longtime restaurant aficionados and owners of Kahunaville at Treasure Island,
David Tuttleman and Mark Green, have partnered with Mötley Crüe front man Vince
Neil to rebrand their 14,000 square foot Circus Circus venue, Rock ‘n Rita’s.

The new venues, VINCE NEIL’s TATUADO EAT-DRINK-PARTY! and VINCE NEIL’s PARTY BUS
BAR, which open to the public Saturday, Nov. 9, showcase the combination of
Neil’s affinity for tattoos and tequila with Tuttleman and Green’s emphasis on a
fun and exciting party-like environment. The mouth-watering menu offers up
Neil’s signature Tatuado burgers, burritos and more to tantalize guests’ taste
buds. The dining room bar allows guests to pair their meal with a cold beer,
lavish cocktail or one of the rocker’s very own premium brands.

“I have wanted to expand the Tatuado brand and bring it to The Strip for a
while,” said Vince Neil. “Teaming with David and Mark to recreate Rock & Rita’s
into my own spot will create a true home for the brand. People can come have a
great time and enjoy my signature line of spirits while they party.”

Owner of Rock ‘n Rita’s David Tuttleman said, “When we launched Rock & Rita’s, I
wanted to create a rock ‘n’ roll party vibe where our guests could experience a
true Vegas party. Teaming up with Vince is going to take that concept to the
next level, creating an authentic atmosphere
with an edgy tattooed feel, different from others you find here in town. I
really want to submerge guests into the true lifestyle and party atmosphere of a
rock star. I have been friends with rock ‘n roll photographer Mark Weiss for
many years, so when it came time to design the new space, it was a no-brainer to
utilize his creativity.”

Photographer Mark Weiss, who was an integral part of the creative vision for the
restaurant and bar areas, added, “In 1982, after shooting Mötley Crüe for their
first national magazine spread, Vince took me to the infamous Rainbow on the
Sunset Strip. We ate, we drank and we definitely partied. When I walked into
Rock & Rita’s to be a part of the creative design team on this project, I was
immediately taken back to those days at the Rainbow and was inspired to help
create the feel and passion of the Sunset Strip.”

The main space, branded as VINCE NEIL’S TATUADO EAT-DRINK-PARTY!, is the
ultimate definition of Neil’s Tatuado brand and outrageous lifestyle. Throughout
the dining room, the ambiance of the venue embraces Tatuado, meaning tattoo,
artwork and imagery, along with the iconic rocker’s most prized possessions,
including gold and platinum records from his enormous success with Mötley Crüe.
Guests will be immersed in an ambiance reminiscent of the legendary Sunset Strip
rock clubs where Neil and his pals launched their paths to stardom.  Two large
video walls, projection screens and 22 HD flat screens, located throughout the
restaurant and satellite bars, will entertain guests with rock-infused music
videos and candid behind-the-scenes video of the rocker enjoying Las Vegas. True
Vince Neil fans can feel at home as they party to Mötley Crüe hits and more,
streamed through the premium sound system.

Just upstairs from the restaurant, visitors can enjoy VINCE NEIL’S PARTY BUS
BAR, appropriately nicknamed “Bus Bar.” The well-known full-size bus features
flair bartenders and party girls offering up shots and creative to-go drinks.
Party-goers will feel as if they have been swept into a post-concert-like
tailgate party.
Additionally, sports fans can take a break from their rock star-style partying
to gamble and grab a drink in the existing Rock & Rita’s Sports Bar. Retaining
the original branding, the sports bar embodies the All-American party for which
Tuttleman and Green have become known. Avid gamblers can enjoy access to the
adjoining Circus Circus Race and Sports Book, as well as counter-top video
gaming machines.
