Last week the Vegas nightlife world was a roller coaster of rumors and lies.  It all started when a Light Group (The Bank, Jet, Haze, Fix, Stack) ex-staffer received a text from a past co-worker claiming close sources revealed that The Light Group is buying  Morgans Hotel Group (NASDAQ MHGC‎).  Among the many of Morgans properties is The Hard Rock Hotel and Casino.  Twiiter and Text messages were going crazy..  Next rumor  was that Morgans Group was buying The Light Group.  This rumor was based on past negotiations that Light Group had with Morgans to take over the nightlife venues in their properties.  Our sources say that these negotiations fell apart. One Vegas insider claimed that The Light Group was hedging their bets because he heard more rumors that the future of The Light Group’s relationship with MGM was uncertain and that there is an alleged internal investigation underway.  The chain of tales was continued by Robin Leach who wrote , “The Light Group executives have ordered a lockdown on any and all information about the Hard Rock rumors. But there have been several different reliable confirmations that Andrew Sasson and Andy Masi  have been inspecting the Hard Rock facilities and are interested in “making a deal” if that actually hasn’t been already worked out in continuing negotiations.” One Light Group Staffer told me that he heard of a Morgan’s Light Group Merger.

However, Hard Rock nightlife investors have not been handed any huge checks yet to buy out their investments.  All this on the heels of an associated press story that reports MGM Resorts International was under investigation after the 19-year-old son of Michael Jordan bragged on Twitter about partying at a Las Vegas Strip nightclub on Aug. 20.  Marcus Jordan tweeted about spending $35,000 at Haze at Aria Resort & Casino. Tweet reads, “Last night was stupid… 35K at Haze,” the University of Central Florida sophomore guard said. “Totals 50K something the whole day.”  The tweet has since been removed from the site.

Vegas has always been a city of connections.. So let’s connect these dots.
Once the new president was named at The Hard Rock Hotel new contracts were signed with Angel Management Group to manage the out door entertainment and promotions which includes the highly profitable Rehab pool party.  Our sources say that revenue numbers of the Sunday pool party have dropped significantly since the take over.  Turns out, not only the revenue has dropped but, so did the security for the guests.  Our sources tell us that security dropped from over 20 to only 7 people on duty to control the weekly mayhem.   Looks like that didn’t work to well ,  Aug 23rd headlines from newspapers read: An Oregon man died Sunday evening after suffering injuries at the Rehab pool at the Hard Rock Hotel.

Blogs started writing about the controversies with the new Hard Rock management from the start.  Many employees lost their jobs and many changes were made that the staff did not agree with.  A blogger Nik Ricci (AKA Hooman Karamian) wrote about the goings on at The Hard Rock hotel on his blog “The Dirty”.  Almost as soon as the post went up it was pulled from his website.   That’s when people started asking why the information wasn’t still there.  My sources tell me that Richie is rumored to have agreed to a 6 appearance deal with an Angel Management for $15K each to take down the negative post on Hard Rock’s new management.

I asked Angle Management’s Alex Cordova about this backroom deal.   Cordova denies anything like that was agreed to.  However, he did tell me that Nik is scheduled for future appearances.
