Our thanks to Las Vegas photographer Erik Kabik for his report and awesome photos.
One of the biggest red carpet events I photographed this year in Vegas and my props to Sally Steele, Publisher of Vegas Rocks Magazine. It was a great event and everyone had a blast tonight. I photographed the arrivals and the performances and presentations during the show and popped in for a few shots while famed Rock and Roll Photographer Robert Knight was photographing portraits of Flavor Flav backstage. Legendary artists Lemmy Kilmister of Motorhead and The Head Cat and Guitar Goddess Lita Ford of The Runaways were honored as well as Flavor Flav who gave a heartfelt speech about how grateful he is for all of his success as a reality TV Star after his earlier succes with Public Enemy.
Many local Las Vegas bands were honored tonight including MOKSHA, Left Standing and The Objex and there was very special tributes to the late Kevin DuBrow of Quiet Riot and The Late Ronnie James Dio by Glenn Hughes of Deep Purple and Black Sabbath.
A final performance closed the show wand Dee Snyder and Lita Ford led the band to the Twisted Sister song ‘I Wanna Rock’ and Vegas Rocks Magazine Publisher joined them on stage. — Erik Kabik
