@ClarqueAllen James Brown, The Doors, and many others played Ice Palace in the late 60s-mid 70s. The lack of photos there is frustrating. — Vintage Las Vegas (@summacorp) Oct 20, 2023

@JeffinOKC The so-called Howard Hughes Green House is still there today but it's not in this photo. KLAS in the 60s was on the west side of Channel 8 Drive. They later relocated across the street to the east, onto the property adjacent to the house. — Vintage Las Vegas (@summacorp) Oct 3, 2023

@JeffinOKC Yeah, KLAS was right there at the time. https://t.co/L48PF9e3Qr — Vintage Las Vegas (@summacorp) Oct 2, 2023
