There will be, yet another, Full Moon on January 10, 2009 at 7:27 PM in Las Vegas, Nevada.  It is called the Full Wolf Moon according to some Native Americans.

"Historically the Native Americans who lived in the area that is now the northern and eastern United States kept track of the seasons by giving distinctive names to the recurring full Moons. Each full Moon name was applied to the entire month in which it occurred. These names, and some variations, were used by the Algonquin tribes from New England to Lake Superior." 

"This full Moon [Full Wolf Moon - January 2009] appeared when wolves howled in hunger outside the villages. It is also known as the Old Moon. To some Native American tribes, this was the Snow Moon, but most applied that name to the next full Moon, in February."  read more from The Farmer's Almanac...

The California Pizza Kitchen at the mirage is not unlike a stage where you can perform or at least watch others perform.  The restaurant is an elevateted circular structure in the middle of an ocean of slot and video machines.  I can imagine you performing there, while I devour one of their custom pizzas or Focaccias ($7.50.)
