A shining beacon for pop divas and rock bands, the Palms' 2500-seat concert hall has a sophisticated sound system. Comedy kingpins and modern rockers from Gwen Stefani to Morrissey have burned up this stage, with many seats only 120ft or less away from the performers. Live albums are minted at the state-of-the-art recording studio.
