Wayne Newton is a singer hailing from Norfolk, Virginia who was born in April 3rd, 1942. He is one of the most celebrated entertainers of his generation, with over half a century's experience in show-business and a live show that has to be seen to be believed.
One doesn't earn the nickname “Mr. Entertainment” by being an introverted, “Serious Artist”. No, instead one earns that nickname by adding to the sum total of human happiness in the world by a hell of a lot through sheer power of personality, charisma and some damn fine singing. So it's kind of strange that the person who currently owns that nickname began life as a sickly, heavily asthmatic Virginian army brat who had nothing but a passion for music. By the time he was six years old he was proficient at the guitar, piano and steel guitar, and his first brush with show-bushiness came at a very early age, singing at country fairs, clubs and theatres with his older brother Jerry as The Rascals Of Rhythm.
When Wayne was finishing junior high school, a Las Vegas booking agent saw the brothers on a local TV show, and brought them in for an audition. While he originally signed The Rascals of Rhythm for two weeks, the brothers stayed in Vegas for five years, getting their first national TV slot in 1962, on The Jackie Gleason show. They appeared on the show 12 times over the next two years and as a result, the two brothers scored roles on the Western TV series Bonanaza. After a couple of years on the show, Jerry decided to pursue an acting career while Wayne decided to keep singing, and set about making as many connections in Vegas as he could. He eventually struck up a friendship with Jack Benny, who hired the young Newton as his opening act soon after they met.
Newton spent the rest of the 1960's as the hottest new act in Vegas, opening for many other acts and then scoring his own headline show in the last 60's. By the early 1970's, Newton was a big enough name all around the country to score a hit single in his own right, with his version of “Daddy, Don't You Walk So Fast” certified Gold in July 1972. However successful his records were though, his live shows were what made him spectacular, and in 1994, he played his 25'000th show. He's still touring to this day, and with more experience live than most musicians could dream of, Wayne Newton still comes highly recommended.
Read moreWayne Newton is ‘Mr Las Vegas’ and he brings everything you’d expect from that name to his live shows. Glamorous excitement and a timeless class, Wayne knows how to entertain.
By 1994 Newton had already played 25000 shows in Las Vegas so it would be safe to say that the man has perfected his craft over the years. It becomes immediately apparent when you see him effortlessly working the stage, the place he’s been his whole life. Looking as dapper as he did on day one, Wayne croons his way through the set, still managing to charm with a youthful twinkle in his eye even as he makes his way into his 70s. Like a true professional he always makes sure his band share in the credit, encouraging the crowd to applaud as they take standing ovations.
People travel for miles to Las Vegas to see Wayne Newton. To many he is a bigger attraction than the casinos and when he takes his show on the road, you know where the most glamourous place in town will be that night – wherever Wayne is playing.
We saw Wayne in Vegas on September 10 at Bally’s. He was wonderful and charmed all the audience. We felt as if we were part of the show. Up close and personal was a great show. He is the best show in Vegas. After seeing him, everything else in Vegas was downhill. We saw 7 shows that week and his was the best! We woulda loved to have been able go back and see his again. He is so caring about his audience and his fans are important to him. I felt that I knew him personally after that night and I was honored to get to take a picture with him. Seeing his show made our trip to Vegas worth it all. I’m still in awe of that man!!! Love you Wayne!!

Loved his show so much in Vegas in September that we purchased tickets for Montgomery. He was just as great if not better when we saw him last week in Montgomery. So happy that we were able to drive from Atlanta area to get there. I just love watching Wayne! He’s fabulous and such a great entertainer. I’m just in love with this man. Can’t wait for a new show. He’s so much more than just a singer! Everyone needs to see him to realize this. Georgia girl—Glenda Brumley
Great nite. Old Skool Vegas entertainment. Lots of stories and rambling chat. Wayne has worked with them all. Danny Davis Jnr, Elvis-even sharing a girlfriend.
Impressed to meet his die hard fan club members who were up and dancing.
Maybe a little light on performing songs but well worth going
Last time was Arabian Horse Fair in Madison, Wis. in 1984 . Awesome Show as always ! Knew him from when he owned Aramus !! The Show was an autobiography of his contribution to music and entertainment.
