Starting May 3rd, in order to make a local call in Southern Nevada, you will need to add 702 to EVERY call, making it a 10 digit call.

No, you don’t have to add a 1 before the 702.
For Example: you will dial 702-xxx-xxxx

Yes it’s a hassle. Yes it’s a pain. The fact is, we ran out of numbers for Southern Nevada. So they will be adding a BRAND NEWW area code for Southern Nevada starting in June. And that area code will be 725.

Two Websites That  Can Help With Any Questions You May Have:
– www.Dial10Digits.org
– www.Puc.NV.gov

It’s going to take time to get use to the new dialing procedures. In a few weeks most everyone will be over the hump. With growth in any city, CHANGE is not to far behind.

Dial Away!

What does that mean to the local musicians? It means less performance work. It means if musicians do not change with the times, their music career may just turn into a hobby.

Now lets talk technology for a moment. When the personal computer hit the market 30 years ago, it seemed straight forward. You plug it in, open a word doc and start typing. This was the beginning of the end for the typewriter.

Now, with the latest technology, we have so many things that are concerning; the hard drive, thumb drive, ram, external CD drive, the cloud, wireless keyboards, virtual hosting, wifi, backup, syncing with iTunes, photo sharing, photo streaming, drop box, complicated passwords, Not to mention “where is the start button”, ETC… Read more
