It is great to see more music being brought in and I'm hope the Grand Palace can what it once was and more, first time I ever went there was in 96', my wife at the time wanted to see Vince Gill, I went for her, it was a great show, I left a fan and I'm not much for country. That seemed like a good year for music in Branson for me because that same year we saw Def Leppard at Lampe, MO A few years ago I went with friends to see Boston in concert at the Grand Palace, good show, I saw them in St Louis a couple weeks before that, the Grand Palace just wasn't big enough to hold the stage set up they were using, you could tell a lot of stuff was left off from the St Louis show for a lack of room on stage. Anyway, something I also miss there is a club thats had a few names, at one time it was called Planet Branson, before that I think it was called Guitars and Cadillacs. Saw a few good shows there, Sebastian Bach of Skid Row (the place was packed and even security seemed shell shocked from the crowd that turned out), saw Cinderella (remember them from the 80's hair metal days?) which was another good turn out. Vixen also played a show there but a terrible turn out. Branson needs something like this to fill in more tastes in music. Lot of great music from the 80's, 90's and today that could bring in people if done right.
