Thursday's parting shot

Here's a look at the new The Bowery Palace sign at 327 Bowery near Second Street. (Workers hadn't finished installing the sign when we walked by late yesterday afternoon.)

The new venue debuted last night with a six-week Off-Broadway run of "Silver Manhattan," Jesse Malin's theatrical show, following a sold-out workshop residency at the Gramercy Theatre this past fall.

"Silver Manhattan" will play five nights a week starting tonight through March 29. Performances are scheduled for Wednesday through Saturday at 8 p.m. and Sunday at 7 p.m. The 90-minute show will feature special guest appearances, including Lenny Kaye, Cynthia Sley, and Butch Walker this week, throughout the run, along with nightly pre-show gatherings.
     
Bowery Electric closed at No. 327 on Jan. 30, ending a 17-year run of live bands and performances.

    Can't wait wait to see Jesse's show. I remember hanging out there all the time when it was the Remote Lounge!
