Other than girls getting hit in the face with drumbsticks, things seem to have gone well for the rebirth of the Star Palace on Friday with A Current Affair and Seventh Day Slumber. If it's been years for you or have never been, take a look at the Star Palace's space during sound-check Friday - it may help solve Fresno's no-midsize-venues issues:
It's a 500 Fresnan capacity place - maybe about double Audie's and Starline. There are issues with it being upstairs and not easy to get the proper equipment up there, though. But hey, with that, the Warnors Theatre in the same building, then the Crest Theater down the street getting use, Fresno seems to have some mid-size action happening.
Seattle alt-rock band, Lybecker, will be at the Star Palace on Friday.
