The opening and closings keep on comin’ in Las Vegas and this weekend, we’ve got one of each.

Pablo McFadden’s at the Rio – and appropriately enough, located adjacent to McFadden’s -  celebrates its grand opening Thurs., Feb. 19 through Saturday, Feb. 20 with Mexican beear, tequila and margarita specials including souvenir 92 oz fish bowls and yard glasses. Music by Caribbean Steel and the Hot Tamales perform nightly. We, too, are wondering what prompts an Irish Pub to expand south of the border but their slogan is “So authentic you can’t drink the water,” so it must be good.

This weekend marks the final one for Hawaiian Tropic Zone over at the Miracle Mile Shops. They’ll close the doors on Sunday after a little over two years in operation.

Body English has been rumored to be on the chopping block for a couple years now but the axe will finally fall for good on the venerable Hard Rock nightclub after one final New Year’s Eve bash, according to this ad running in the November 2009 issue of 944 Magazine.

Apparently, the circle of nightlife at the Hard Rock will be completed immediately with the opening of Vanity on the same evening.
