Political humorist Maher made the most of his gig hosting Politically Incorrect on Comedy Central and ABC, becoming a household name before moving to HBO to host Real Time. He's returning to his stand-up roots this spring for a limited engagement at the Hard Rock.

From Bill Maher's site:

Bill Maher is one of the most politically astute comedians in America today. His unflinching honesty and commitment to never pulling a punch have garnered him the respect and admiration of millions of fans. In 2003, Maher launched a new show, "Real Time with Bill Maher," on HBO, a network that's a perfect fit for his irreverent style. The hour-long show airs live at 11:00PM on Friday nights.

Maher's credits include five HBO specials, including the critically acclaimed "Bill Maher: Be More Cynical" and most recently, the Emmy nominated "I'm Swiss." Maher has participated in sold-out comedy tours throughout the United States. He received a Tony nomination for the three-week run of his one-man Broadway Show, "Victory Begins at Home."

An English major graduate from Cornell University, Maher began his career honing his act during the '80s on the New York club scene. He reflects upon this time in True Story, a novelization of his club life and a funny, revealing depiction of the comic.

Description:
For over 30 years Elton John been a pop icon, with hits like Candle In The Wind, Rocket Man, and The Bitch Is Back building his reputation as a worldwide favorite. Now he's returning to Caesars Palace for a limited engagement.

From the Caesars Palace site:

He has survived the ups and downs of musical stardom for over 30 years. Commercially, creatively, on stage and on record, Elton John is a legendary artist -- one who is still as relevant as ever.

Elton John's finely honed stage presence, a winning factor in targeting his tunes straight into the heart of America, is excess incarnate. In The Red Piano, the showy costumes are replaced by incredible video imagery and stage props, yet the end result is unmistakably classic Elton John.

Gregarious, show-stopping, outlandish and unforgettable. Words that could be Elton John as much as they are Vegas. Together with photographer David LaChapelle, Elton John has created The Red Piano -- a career overview performance you won't soon forget.

The Red Piano takes the audience inside Elton John's world. LaChapelle creates a dreamscape dripping with rich imagery of Hollywood and Las Vegas icons -- each moment created to give the viewer a new, three dimensional interpretation of Elton John and Bernie Taupin's most memorable recordings.

Please note that The Red Piano is designed with a Vegas theme and mature audiences in mind. The video imagery that accompanies the music may at times be considered risqué, and includes montage style scenes that include brief frontal nudity. The Video content is designed within the context of the songs and overall theme of the show.
