LAS VEGAS – Robbie Knievel has less than a month to study the fire-spewing volcanic terrain around his next motorcycle stunt. Luckily for him, it's Las Vegas, where eruptions between now and then are scheduled hourly, every night.

Knievel, the 46-year-old son of the late daredevil Evel Knievel, will jump the refurbished volcano at The Mirage hotel-casino on a motorcycle as part of a television special on New Year's Eve.

"We pretty much own Vegas," Knievel said. "I'll shut the (Las Vegas) Strip down for the third time."

Knievel said the stunt will likely be his last in the United States.

Mirage officials unveiled a $25 million facelift for the casino's iconic erupting volcano on Monday night, a 5-minute fire and water spectacle to a custom soundtrack co-written by former Grateful Dead drummer Mickey Hart.

The rupturing rock joins the likes of other Strip sidewalk acts including the fountains at the Bellagio and the coed pirate show at Treasure Island.

"This volcano is our crowning jewel," said Scott Sibella, president and chief operating officer of The Mirage. "It's the final piece of the puzzle."

hey, isn't that other guy doing a real stunt in vegas the same night?
