A hardy group of rockers made it out to the show every night and many new fans attended multiple nights.

The Platinum Rockstars Superstar Show put out their best effort every night and had the pleasure of making a passle o’ new friend such as Lorna from the United Kingdom:

“I had the privilege of watching these guys on Fremont Street on my last night in Vegas, and I was absolutely enthralled and thought they were brilliant.  I hope you come to the UK sometime soon.  If you get the chance to see these guys don’t miss it.”

The Fremont Street Experience is a series of outdoor free shows that run throughout the summer. The 2010 season’s Fremont Street Experience shows feature tributes to artists of the 1970s.

Platinum Rockstars tributes included Led Zeppelin, Boston, Van Halen, Foreigner, Bon Jovi and more. If you missed this great concert experience in downtown Las Vegas, never fear: more shows are in the works! Thanks again to all our fans for making this a trip to remember!
