I know precious little about palms, bamboos or bamboo palms for that matter.
but for all it is worth I have a photo, which shows the same (kind of?) palm whole:

I hope that will get you all closer to a settlement between palms, bamboo and
bamboo palms

Looking at the picture now, the leaves of this palm do look kind of bamboo-like.
That appears to support Richard's ID, at least in my lay opinion, but brings us
no closer to any conclusion as to if the original pic. was from a bamboo or a palm.
