Great re-opening night to see Evil Woman - A Tribute to ELO/The American ELO. Energetic, solid musicians hip and great songs, of course.
Enjoyable experience watching Anthony Rodia. It did take quite long to get a drink though. The seating was very intimate but the seats seemed like they were old because they were very narrow. I basically almost had to sit sideways the entire show in order to be comfortable and I'm not that big of a person.
Beautiful Palace Theater. Very friendly staff. Sound and lighting was excellent.
Nice facility. Good acoustics. Ample nearby parking
Awesome venue. Parking, as in many places, is not as simple as one might like. But that’s the only hard part. Staff awesome, space awesome.
