Shots Fired @ The Record Bar in KCMO on 3/7/09

I drove up to Kansas City this past weekend to watch the Shots Fired "Reunion" concert on Saturday night. Here's some of the videos through out the night.

Weird Concerts From My Past: Incubus & Far 4/4/1998

Back in 1998, Darci and I drove from Manhattan, KS to Lawrence, KS one weekend to simply get out of town and go record shopping. Much to my delight the band Incubus was playing an early show at The Bottleneck. Being a fan of The Urge I had already been introduced to Incubus, but had never seen them in concert, so we went. There were four bands playing that evening, Incubus, Ultraspank, 8 Degrees, and much to my surprise.... Far.

The show was not well attended, only about 30 people through the door. Far was amazing and the singer from Incubus definitely had some vocal chops. Darci was fascinated by the dreadlocks that he was sporting at the time. Incubus was touring in support of their album, "S.C.I.E.N.C.E." One of the items I left the concert with that was pretty humorous was a cardboard mask of the dude from their album cover. One year later Incubus was practically a household name with the success of the album "Make Yourself."

I found the setlist online:

Redefine / Magic Medicine / A Certain Shade Of Green / Hilikus / Vitamin / Idiot Box / Summer Romance / Favorite Things / Glass / Calgone / You Will Be A Hot Dancer / New Skin

Ready For The Weekend!

It amazing how fast the week can fly. I am looking forward to a weekend of family and friends.

Next weekend I'll be heading to Kansas City to watch a couple of concerts, The Republic Tigers on Friday and Shots Fired on Saturday. Should be making the trip up with a friend from Springfield. If the weather cooperates we may even have the chance to play some golf with a few business contacts. I will enjoy the time away, but will miss the girls. It's amazing how much I look forward to seeing them at the end of each work day.

Until next time...
