Grammy award-winning artist Kanye West is set to perform his "Glow in the Dark Tour" at Red Rock Resort as it launches its 2008 summer outdoor concert series on Friday, April 25, 2008, at 7:30 p.m. Opening the show for West will be rapper Lupe Fiasco as well as funk/rock group N.E.R.D. consisting of Pharrell Williams, Chad Hugo and Shay Haley.


While the concert was always scheduled for Red Rock Resort, the production needs grew following West's four Grammy wins at the 2008 awards ceremony. Station Casinos is accommodating the production requirements with a new temporary venue located outdoors at the casino resort.


This is the second year that Red Rock Resort is hosting a summer concert series. Last year's lineup included popular artists such as Nelly Furtado, Lauryn Hill, Peter Frampton, the Doobie Brothers and Daughtry.


The 2008 summer concert series will feature a diverse lineup, starting with West and will also include:


Friday, May 2, country music singer-songwriter Dierks Bentley who has been on the mainstream music scene for only five years, but in that time has charted five number one hit singles. He is slated to release his greatest hits album just days after the concert at Red Rock.


Friday, June 20, legendary folk rock trio Crosby, Stills and Nash whose hit songs include "Our House," "Ohio" and "Suite: Judy Blue Eyes," among numerous others.


Friday, July 11, celebrated British classic rock singer and guitarist Peter Frampton is returning to Red Rock Resort. Frampton is well-known for the hit songs "Baby I Love Your Way" and "Show Me the Way," in addition to "Do You Feel Like We Do" that featured his famed talk-box guitar effect.


Saturday, August 9, pop-reggae rockers UB40 will take the stage. The British band hit it big in the U.S. with songs such as "Red, Red Wine" and a reggae cover of the famous Elvis song "Can't Help Falling in Love."
