Congratulations to the staff and executives at the oft-forgotten O’Shea’s at center Strip on its 20th anniversary. Motley Crue frontman Vince Neil will be part of tomorrow’s all-out blowout birthday bash right before he joins his band mates for Crue Fest 2 in The Joint at the Hard Rock Hotel.

It will be an all-day celebration tomorrow at the Strip’s most uninhibited casino, and Vince’s appearance will be at 5 p.m. to blow out the candles on the cake and gift some lucky spectators with last-minute tickets for his Motley Crue concert! Vince’s tattoo shop Vince Neil Ink is located at O’Shea’s.

Hotel officials also will unveil the new area of the World Series of Beer Pong events, with the finals culminating in January in the neighboring and sister hotel Flamingo.

It will be a very busy weekend for Vince. On Sunday night, he officially throws the doors wide open on his Feelgoods Rock Bar & Grill with a VIP grand opening with partner Danny “Count" Koker. Vince also will perform with his own band at 10 p.m. onstage on West Sahara, an easy ride from his home here.

Vince recently gave an intriguing interview about his battles with drug and alcohol abuse. He says that rehab rarely works because it’s temporary quitting. He says, “Most people go to rehab just to dry out, not to actually stop drinking or doing drugs. Actually, they go there because they've been given an ultimatum by their wife or boss. They're not there for themselves; they’re there because someone wants them to be there. That’s why it doesn't work. You have to go when you want to go.”

Vince admits that although he’s been off drugs for 15 years, he will always be battling those demons but is happy to have the occasional drink. “That doesn’t hurt,” he chuckled.”
