"We are very excited to be able to perform consecutive nights residing at the same venue because we plan to dig into our catalog and change up our set lists for each show," says TESLA lead guitarist Frank Hannon. "This will make it interesting for our loyal fans who will attend in the spectacular city of Las Vegas!"

"We, in TESLA are very excited to be doing our very first ever residency in Las Vegas, of all places, where Elvis did his residency," said Brian Wheat, TESLA bassist. "We look forward to bringing the legacy of TESLA's music to you all!"

In the discussion, Frank talks about the band's new live album "Time To Rock", arriving this year, memories of late LYNYRD SKYNYRD guitarist Gary Rossington, the current Las Vegas residency and much more.
