It was owned by Fred "Sport" Suttles, and managed by Mary Ham. Formerly a country music venue known as the Corral Lounge, it opened in the spring of 1985 with the intentions to "save rock and roll in Pensacola". After the recent closings of Franco's Lounge, Franco's All-Nite Affair, and Jere's Rock and Roll Showcase, there were no large capacity (more than 150 guests), live entertainment rock clubs in town. It's staff was made up of mostly former employees of the aforementioned establishments. A few of the more well-known names that performed there were Bachman-Turner Overdrive, Nantucket, and "Star Search" finalists Jailbait. Local heavy metal fave Iscariot (formerly known as Slasher) also performed there. The Show Palace closed in the summer of 1986. |
