Joe Rogan Brings His Comedy to The Joint in Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Las Vegas, 7/5

Comedian, actor and UFC color commentator Joe Rogan will be bringing his stand up comedy show to The Joint on Friday, July 5. Tickets go on sale this Friday at 10am.

A standup comedian for more than 20 years, Joe Rogan sells out theaters internationally with his inquisitive and intense comedic style. His third hour comedy special "Joe Rogan: Live from the Tabernacle" was released in December 2012 via his website. Rogan previously starred in two hour long specials, "Talking Monkeys in Space" (2009) now available on CD & DVD and "Joe Rogan Live" (2007) now available on DVD, and released the CDs "Shiny Happy Jihad" (2007) and "I'm Gonna Be Dead Someday" (2000).

Rogan is host of "The Joe Rogan Experience," a long form conversation with guests that is one of the most popular comedy podcasts on iTunes. Fans can watch the podcast on Ustream and the podcast can also be heard on Sirius XM's "The Virus" channel on Saturdays at Noon ET and Sundays at 5:00 AM and 6:00 PM ET.

"One of the most complex and exciting stand-ups working in America today. Like an idealistic hippy stuck inside the body of a testosterone-pumped US marine. He's been likened to late great US comedians such as Bill Hicks and Sam Kinison, but although he exhibits a similar brand of furious indignation, his observations and revelations are entirely his own. His angry, insightful act is an absorbing battle between his raw libertarian instincts and his refined liberal sensibilities." -William Cook, The Guardian

Since 2002, Rogan has provided color commentary for the UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) on Pay Per View, Spike Television and now on FOX. Rogan's passion for MMA began with martial arts practice at the age of 13. Within two years, the Boston native earned a black belt and soon became the Massachusetts full contact Tae Kwon Do champion four consecutive years. By the age of 19, Rogan won the US Open Tae Kwon Do Championship and as lightweight champion went on to beat both the middle and heavyweight title-holders to obtain the Grand Championship.

Rogan can be seen this summer on the SyFy channel hosting Joe Rogan Questions Everything. Film credits include Zookeeper and Here Comes The Boom. Rogan hosted the high stakes game show "Fear Factor," on NBC in 2011/12 and previously for six seasons on the network from 2001-2006. Prior to "Fear Factor", Rogan played Joe Garrelli, the resident electrician on the hit NBC comedy series "NewsRadio."
