iTunes Live from Las Vegas at the Palms is the first live album from American pop punk band Yellowcard, released January 22, 2008, and the final Yellowcard album to be released through Capitol Records. It is an iTunes exclusive album. The album was recorded in October 2007, while Yellowcard were on the Blue October tour, at the Palms Casino Resort’s Pearl Concert Theater.[1] Live from Las Vegas at the Palms was the last official Yellowcard album until the band announced their reformation. Bass player Peter Mosely left the band in 2007 before the album was recorded. Current bassist, Josh Portman, was filling in at the time and is featured on the recording.
