Palmer Auditorium
Brady and 12th

Some Past Shows
I've been to lots of shows at Palmer. Before the Mark opened, it, the Adler and the Coliseum were the only game in town. (The shows I attended are in bold.) It has been converted to a rec center and is no longer being rented out for shows. I'd like to thank http://members.aol.com/bob4bulls/ for filling in many of the dates that I was missing.
