Talking With Frank Sidoris – October 21, 2024

Hard Hat Lounge 3rd Annual Block Party November 1

This week, Ira spoke with Vegas-born guitarist Frank Sidoris, owner of Las Vegas’ iconic dive bar, Hard Hat Lounge, which hosts its free 3rd annual block party November 1. In this episode of “Talk About Las Vegas With Ira,” Frank talks about the definition of a dive bar (“comes with a bit more grit”); growing up in Las Vegas in a show business family (his mom was part of “Crazy Girls”); changing out his skateboard for a guitar; how he ended up owning the bar; the Slash surprise performance there; maintaining the tradition of the Hard Hat Lounge;  how “Elvis” played a part in his decision to go on tour; what people will experience at the block party (including live music); the “local love” vibe; and his future plans for businesses in Las Vegas.
