The opening act of Kansas City's "Crown Jewel" has been announced:
Operatic tenor Placido Domingo and violinist Itzhak Perlman headline Kauffman Center inaugural weekend
That's nice, but I doubt these two legends combined could draw a local crowd as large as whatever inbred Country Music Star currently tops the charts.
TIME TO FACE REALITY!!! KANSAS CITY WILL ALWAYS BE A COWTOWN WITH VERY LITTLE CLASS!!!
This isn't always a bad thing. In fact, I find it comforting that there are so many bigass white women in this town who love to eat and aren't that picky. A more posh location would certainly play against my interests.
Nevertheless, so far there's nothing about the Kauffman Center that suggests it will draw any more fans than any of the other struggling and empty performance venues already littering Kansas City.

Not everybody in KC is a dirtbag who can't afford to move out of their mommys basement. Im sure it will fill right up......Bye Hater.

Guess the names of your bootylicsious babes, or die.
Ck it on You Tube, you will like it.
Nessum Dorma.
Really.
7:38-No, in fact, most people in KC are not dirtbags, however, I'm also sure while the new building is filling up-according to your predictions-KC proper will be emptying out as more and more smart with their money folks flee the urban core for the safer suburbs......Bye Idiot.
ReplyDeleteYou write a fuckin blog, what the fuck do you know?
ReplyDeleteThis from a guy who can barely write complete paragraphs. Tony, you are the cowtown asshat.
ReplyDeleteHowever, the Kauffman Center will be filled with a bunch of self aggrandizing douchenozzle Johnson County folks who can only spot "taste" when it is in a Pottery Barn catalog or something that the PTA moms will be talking about.
If you don't like KC, why do you live here?
ReplyDelete"Very little class"? You're projecting, Tony.
ReplyDeleteI think those that criticize the Kauffman Center are very telling. the fact that is built on almost 100% private donations is a threat to many leaders and communities that subscribe to a victim and hand out mentality OR feel like we have to sell the City's soul to developers to make KCMO a City that works.
ReplyDeleteblack the mexican folk didn't build it. they are waiting on another government handout project.
ReplyDelete11:34-I wrote the 8:10 comment in response to 7:38's comment. Like you, I believe the Kauffman Center is an amazing and most impressive structure built on mostly private donations. However, Tony is right about KC being littered with "struggling and empty performance venues" and the Kauffman Center may well be among those venues itself. I certainly hope it'll be a success, but only time will tell. I'm also very serious about people fleeing the KC urban core. I love this city, but I just can't take the politics of this city anymore. While the crime rate is on the rise, and basic services are in decline, city officials are studying the viability of a 300 room hotel, considering paying as much as $30 million in pensions to the former MAST workers-and while the list of stupid political leadership goes on for miles, there is no forseeable solutions to the rest of the city's real problems. Its time to abandon this sinking ship!
ReplyDelete11:34 - It pains me to admit you may be right. The worst thing is the one party system of KCMO offers little hope.
ReplyDeleteI plan to plant my big white ass down into a chair at one of the performances Tony! I will keep supporting the arts regardless of your cowtown comments.
ReplyDeleteWouldn't you love to slip your hand down the front of those loose jeans? I just love it when a girls lower belly is so flat her jeans don't hardly stay up agaisnt her in the front. omg!
ReplyDeleteYeah, another empty venue, just like that Sprint Center that was just voted the #2 busiest venue in the United States only behind Madison Square Garden!!
