GM Resorts International has partnered with Red Bull for a unique outdoor concert that will be a clash of sounds, styles and creativity Saturday, March 12. Red Bull Soundclash Las Vegas will feature GRAMMY® Award-winning rapper, songwriter and record producer Cee Lo Green and GRAMMY® Award-nominated pop band The Ting Tings as they perform at a specially constructed venue in Luxor Hotel and Casino's auxiliary parking lot, located on the east side of Las Vegas Blvd.

Tickets, $10 in advance and $15 at the door, are now on sale and are available online at www.redbullusa.com/soundclash and www.ticketmaster.com, or by phone at (866) 740-7711. Tickets also are available for purchase at participating MGM Resorts International box office outlets including MGM Grand, Mandalay Bay, The Mirage, Monte Carlo, New York-New York, Luxor and Excalibur. Guests must be 18 years of age or older to attend.

The Red Bull Soundclash format takes each band through a series of collaborative challenges that makes it less of a battle and more of a musical conversation. In round one (the cover), both bands play their own version of the same cover song. Round two (the takeover) begins with the first band playing one of its original songs and mid-way through the other band takes over, seamlessly finishing the song in their own style. The third round (the clash) highlights each band's musical versatility by having them perform songs in three different styles, for example, country, reggae or techno/dance. The fourth and final round will be full of surprises as each act is allowed to bring a special guest to the stage to join their performance.

Several parties and activities have been scheduled throughout MGM Resorts International properties March 10 - 13. Red Bull Soundclash wristbands are available to guests who book a room at participating MGM Resorts properties with the code "ZRB11" (one wristband per guest). The wristbands will grant access to VIP lines and complimentary admission to select activities. Participating properties include MGM Grand, Mandalay Bay, The Mirage, Monte Carlo, New York-New York, Luxor, Excalibur and Circus Circus. Additional wristbands are available with the purchase of a Red Bull Soundclash concert ticket March 10 - 12.
