Bartenders from all over the country will descend upon the MGM Grand in Las Vegas to show their stuff starting this weekend. You may see some faces you recognize from behind your local bars. All the action will take place on "On The Rocks: The Search For America's Top Bartenders" premiering Saturday at 12:01 am on LX. TV.

In the tradition of reality TV, contestants, including Amanda Gager from Las Vegas, Amanda "Mandarr" Washington from San Francisco and Daniel (DJ) Love from Barrington, Illinois, will take part in weekly challenges which they will be judged on. Challenges deal with different bartender issues, including making a great cocktail or matchmaking at the bar. At the end of each episode, someone will go home until one person remains as the winner of a $100,000 prize.

The winner will be announced, earning the title of America's Top Bartender, and awarded their prize at the Nightclub and Bar Show in Vegas in March 1 through 4, 2009.
