VIXEN Wolf Den Mohegan Sun Casino Uncasville, Connecticut January 15, 2022 Photos & Review by Dan Wenc UNCASVILLE, Conn. – Outside was the bitter cold of a New England winter with temperatures in the single digits, inside the heart of Mohegan Sun Casino was the warmth of the Wolf Den as it was hosting 80s era rockers, Vixen. For about an hour and a half, they warmed the hearts and souls of all in attendance with the timeless sounds of Vixen rock classics. This would be the first show of 2022 for Vixen. A perfect place to spend a Saturday night with a free showRead More →

VIXEN Mohegan Sun Casino Wolf Den Uncasville, Connecticut November 10, 2019 Photos & Review by Frank Piercy This has been a year of change for Vixen.  Long time lead singer Janet Gardner had stepped away from the band to focus on family and a solo career. Lorraine Lewis of the band Femme Fatale stepped into into Janet Gardner’s spot on vocals. Ironically, it was almost a year to the day since Vixen last stepped onto the stage at the Mohegan Sun Wolf Den, the last time that Janet riled up the Vixen crowd in Uncasville, Connecticut. This night would be the second time that I haveRead More →

KIX Mohegan Sun – Wolf Den Uncasville, Connecticut April 5, 2019 Photos & Review by Frank Piercy Spending an evening at a casino on (or pretty damn close to) my birthday has become somewhat of a tradition for my wife and me. For the last 10 years (I think but could be wrong) KIX has played Mohegan Sun’s Wolf Den in April, and 90% of the time it is the week not only of our anniversary but my birthday, and they are actually one of the bands from the 80’s that she loves seeing live. What a birthday celebration it was, not only were weRead More →

VIXEN Mohegan Sun Casino Wolf Den Uncasville, Connecticut April 27, 2017 Photos & Review by Dan Wenc It had been a long time since I’ve seen Vixen live. The year was 1989 when I first saw Vixen when they opened up for Ozzy along with White Lion at the Centrum (now DCU Center) in Worcester, Massachusetts. Talk about a memorable show with that line-up. Back in the days when a ticket for a show like that went for around $20. Those were the days. Vixen has still remained a constant in my regular musical playlist to this day. Vixen was out on the road again and thisRead More →
