Rolling Stones Tribute Band Rocks South Florida
Savor the Sounds: Rolling Stones Tribute Brings Music to the Dinner Table in the Paddock Restaurant at the Palm Beach Kennel Club.
January 10th, 2025
The energy was electric, the music iconic and the night was one to remember as Start Me Up! – A Tribute to The Rolling Stones Dinner Show brought rock ’n roll magic to the Paddock Restaurant at the Palm Beach Kennel Club (PBKC). This concert was a full-on celebration of one of the most legendary bands in history.
From the moment the lights dimmed and the band launched into the opening notes of “Start Me Up,” the audience was transported into the heart of a Stones experience. The Paddock’s intimate setting, complete with tiered seating and stellar acoustics, ensured every guest had a front-row feel for the show. Marc Lichtenfeld commanded the stage as frontman, channeling Mick Jagger with remarkable authenticity. His high-octane performance, dynamic vocals, and charisma definitely brought a good time.
The setlist was a masterclass in rock history, pulling from the Stones’ greatest hits and fan-favorites across a seven-decade career. Classics like “Paint It Black,” “Ruby Tuesday,” and “Sympathy for the Devil” lit up the room, while the early gem “The Last Time” and the recent single “Angry” from the 2023 album Hackney Diamonds proved the timeless appeal of the band’s music. Each song was delivered with passion, keeping the crowd fully engaged and on their feet.
The surprises kept coming, with Tommy Tenneis (aka Keith Richards) taking over lead vocals for a spirited rendition of “Rip This Joint” and Astrid Voxx (aka Lisa Fischer) captivating the audience with her soulful contributions to “Gimme Shelter” and “Honky Tonk Woman.” The band brought raw power to every number, including “It’s Only Rock ’n Roll (But I Like It),” “Sweet Darling, Don’t Leave Me,” “Dyin’ to Meet You,” “Brown Sugar,” “Jumpin’ Jack Flash,” “You Can’t Always Get What You Want,” “Beasts of Burden” and the ultimate crowd-pleaser, “(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction.”
Beyond the music, the band’s showmanship was unmatched. The eight-member ensemble showcased incredible versatility, seamlessly incorporating tambourines, saxophones, electric keyboards, harmonicas and even a cowbell into their performance. The saxophonists even ventured into the crowd for a cool jam session that brought fans closer to the action.
Also, some of the bands’ flamboyant outfits added a perfect touch of rockstar flair, enhancing the vibrant energy of the night.
Furthermore, the dinner aspect of the evening added a welcomed touch, with a three-course menu featuring options like Prime Rib, Chicken Francese, Pan-Seared Salmon, and Pasta Primavera capped off by a delicious chocolate cake. However, while the food was good, the true star of the evening was the performance itself.
Start Me Up! – A Tribute to The Rolling Stones was a great night out at the PBKC. With Marc Lichtenfeld leading the charge and the band firing on all cylinders, the night was a thrilling reminder of why The Rolling Stones’ music remains timeless.

Between flying queens, strong pours, and a room full of Pride week energy, Palace turned Friday night into one of the hottest parties on Ocean Drive.
April 11, 2026
During Miami Beach Pride Week, plenty of venues try to capture the moment, but Palace Bar made Friday night feel like the place everyone wanted to be. The Haus of Gucci Ball brought together drag, fashion, nightlife, and the kind of high energy crowd that made the whole evening feel elevated from the start.
The atmosphere hit immediately. Palace was glowing, the music kept the room alive, and the crowd was fully locked in. It felt vibrant, glamorous, and very Miami Beach. More than just a dinner outing, the night unfolded like a full Pride experience on Ocean Drive.
The clear highlight was a queen whose acrobatic performance completely took over the room. She moved with an incredible mix of strength, control, and confidence, turning the floor into her stage and delivering a routine that felt both dazzling and deeply seductive. At one point, she was flipping around on a man with such effortless precision that the whole crowd seemed to stop at once. It was captivating, sexy, and easily one of the most memorable moments of the night.
The food and drinks absolutely kept up. We had the filet bites and tuna tostones, both perfect for sharing between performances, along with skinny margaritas and lemon drops that were dangerously easy to drink. And yes, Palace was pouring strong, which only added to the fun. The cocktails matched the mood of the night perfectly: bold, smooth, and hard to stop ordering.
What makes Palace Bar work so well during Miami Beach Pride is that the energy never drops. The performers are not just part of the background. They pull the whole room in. The crowd responds, the music keeps moving, and the night keeps building. That kind of momentum is exactly what makes an event feel worth showing up for.
The Haus of Gucci Ball was one part of Palace Bar’s larger Miami Beach Pride Week programming, which has helped make the venue one of the biggest draws on Ocean Drive this week. With events spanning multiple days, Palace has become a go to destination for people looking for drag performances, nightlife, rooftop energy, DJs, and a crowd that wants to celebrate Pride in full.
That is what makes Palace such a fixture during Miami Beach Pride Week. It is not just about location or history. It is about creating nights that actually feel exciting once you are there. Friday night’s Haus of Gucci Ball had the glamour, the chemistry, the performances, and the kind of atmosphere that kept people fully engaged from beginning to end.
If you were at Palace Bar on Friday night, you already know how good it was. If you missed it, this was one of those Miami Beach Pride nights worth hearing about.
