Uptown Theater

Tied for my Number 1 of all time. Exceptional! These guys have been jamming for 52 years, and like fine wine, have only improved with age. If you are a jazz fusion lover, or even if you're not, I fail to see how any music lover would have come away from this show without a huge smile on their face. They ROCKED!!!!

Out of all of the Brian Culbertson concerts that I have attended, The Nov 12th concert in KCMO was the best. All of the band members were really into the music and their showmanship left nothing but pure entertainment. I was fortunate to have seats front row and center stage (again). With the VIP tickets, we were able to engage with Nicholas and Brian. This preconcert experience just set the tone for the rest of the evening. The Daylight Tour will forever be etched in my mind.

High energy show with a TON of talent on the stage! Danced the entire time. If you just sit during that show, you must not fully enjoy music!! Loved the opening act as well!!! KC was always my favorite from way back. Cannot believe it took me 50 years to see him live but WOW............worth every cent! A check off my bucket list. Thank you for the memories, KC and the Sunshine Band!

Gracie was so personable. I went to the concert on my birthday and there was no other place id rather be turning 20! She even appreciated that kc was a smaller venue and said it made it so much more personal and she loved that she could see our faces. :,) Made me REALLY happy bc some artists don’t love their Midwest shows 🤣 I LOVE GRACIE SLAYBRAMS!

My husband and I absolutely adore Amos Lee. Amos Lee creates the rare kind of music that's emotionally raw, yet is soulful with a contemporary jazz feel. We have seen him in multiple concerts - this one was different. In the past, Amos has performed by himself, sang from song to song while telling a story - a story of his songs. At this concert, however, Amos spent a good portion of the concert jamming out with his band for an extended period of time during each song. The band complemented Amos well . . . but we severely missed Amos just singing from song to song.

3rd time seeing Ashley in concert, second time for the Devil I Know Tour. This one was the best so far. She and the band had a blast rocking out, dancing, laughing, and making funny faces. The entire theater had the best night. I love how this venue carries sound well. Opener, Will Jones, had a deep, soulful voice with amazing guitar and songwriting skills.

I’m beyond delighted I got to see the guys in concert with my best friend. It was extremely loud but that’s what made it fun. My friend and I waited so long to not only listen and jam to their music live, but to see them too. I’m sad Chris was sick & I couldn’t give him a hug but like he said “whether it’s one song”, I’m so euphoric I was there. This wasn’t just mine and my friend’s first Motionless In White concert, but this was my first metal concert & it was so worth it. Having Motionless In White for my first metal concert, I gotta say I really was in for a treat lol. I do hope Chris feels better and the guys come back pretty soon because I miss them already and they’ve had a very long tour. especially in the theatre because there’s a good chance I may be closer to the stage when I come back. Much Love ❤️ - Laney & Jaydra

Will Dailey, the opening act, was a great addition to the show. He was really good, songwriter and musician. A mesmerizing singer too. The Wallflowers were everything I needed them to be for my first time seeing live. Jakob was so laid back, so interactive with the audience and his voice is so solid. The band are all individually dynamic and as a group are pretty flawless. I am so glad I FINALLY just bought the ticket!

The Regrettes are one of my favorite bands, and this has been the third time I’ve seen them. The other two were both at the Bottleneck in Lawrence, KS. They did a great performance with lots of energy as always. The set was pretty short though and was mostly from their latest album. Playing only one from their first album I was slightly disappointed, but I understand why with the time restraints and wanting to promote their newest tracks. Still, it was a great show, and I would love to see them again as headliners!

Games we play was great but the regrettes were actually putting me and my group to sleep. They sounded fine but it just put us to sleep. The whole crowd wasn’t really feeling it either it seemed. The lead singer was perfectly great but just something was off. I’ll probably listen to their stuff but still. Games we play were really fun. The singer was funny they were informative and they had a very good stage presence. Yungblud of course was the star of the show. He was incredible with the audience and was having the time of his life it seemed. The lineup that he sang was great. I wish I heard “mars” but no problem better luck next time. He was funny and just having fun. There was a time where he told the crowd to copy him and he said a couple things, then he said “f you” and the crowd said it back and he said “why?”. It was a great concert and makes me wanna see more.

One of the best shows ever! I saw YUNGBLUD last year in Lincoln and other than the fact that last time I was in the very front & I got to meet him… I honestly think this show was better. Vocal wise I was blown away, he sounds SOO different than last time, in the best way. He sounded amazing before obviously, but this time he was just killin’ it!! 10/10 FOR SURE! I can’t wait to see him for a third time! Also the Uptown venue is such an amazing venue. The staff is always super nice & the venue itself is so beautiful!

Asleep at the Wheel is one of the best live shows you will ever attend. This one did not disappoint. Both special guests came on with the Wheel, they took turns singing each others songs and singing together. ATTW had several new musicians playing but they didn't miss a beat. They all seemed to enjoy entertaining and playing together. My only negative was it didn't last as long as I would have liked! You can not beat Western Swing music and Asleep at the Wheel is the best. The Uptown was looking great, it's a really nice venue. I'm glad I was in attendance! Ray said they hadn't played there since 1983, and I was at that show with my Dad. This time I went with my oldest daughter. My son was also there with his kids!

The concert was amazing!! I couldn’t believe more people didn’t attend it. They upgraded our tickets. So instead of the balcony, I got front row tickets. It was a really fun concert. The music was incredible!! I really wish the girls had won America’s Got Talent, but they say then they couldn’t have come here now. But I want them to succeed big time. They also took pictures with us after the show!! Too cool!! They were the best!!

For my first Switchfoot concert this one did not disappoint. The mix of songs from the brand new album combined with classic originals from the band were phenomenal, the lights and scenery used was a sight to behold that nothing will ever be able to recreate and the finale literally brought tears to my eyes the second Jon Foreman sung the first line of ‘Dare You To Move’, which instantly made it the best concert I’ve ever been to. Amazing concert, highly recommend people to check it out! I love you Switchfoot! ❤️

The show was incredible! Great lineup. Amon Amarth put on the best show. Thankfully I got another set of tickets to actually see it, because the tickets I purchased from Ticketmaster through Bands in Town never showed up in my inbox. :/ I had to go directly to Ticketmaster to get tickets a second time around. I will not purchase through Bands in Town again.

The Elton Dan shows are more like Vegas concerts, than local band shows. We are just lucky enough they live locally so we get more opportunities to see them. Better than $150 tribute shows in the big cities, and each show is different and exciting. I've seen them in 5 states now and found that their music is soothing for the soul!

The Staff were incredible and helpful I have limited mobility and they took such great care of me and my 10yr son the theater is gorgeous! Bastille is one of the I would say most underrated bands ever the whole Band give there all to the entire crowd! I am a Bastille fan for life❣️ best band to see live hands down Dan Smith I would follow you to the end of the earth to hear you sing❣️

This kid is unbelievable, When I bought my tickets for Beth Hart I wanted to check out her opening act and found it was him. So with the pandemic and the show being rescheduled out for a whole year, I kept up on him with YouTube and whatever and he just keeps getting better and better. Not only is he phenomenal on the guitar but his voice just gets better and better. He’s definitely one that I know I’ll be going to see every chance I get. We drive 350 miles each way for the Beth Hart/ Quinn show, and they didn’t disappoint I’d do it again in a heartbeat!! Don’t miss it!!

Was blown away .. Zakk and the boys Always GIFD ! If you want to see the best guitarist of this era , Zakk is your man. The one bad thing was covid precautions, so I didn't buy the vip ... Who wants to "social" distance for that price ? Not me ! But BLS puts on the best show around , hands down ! ☠︎︎༒︎𝕊𝔻𝕄𝔽༒︎☠︎︎

Kyle was amazing, he's one of my favorites!!! Aaron was okay but he is starting to sound a little too mainstream for me. He didn't even sing his classics that made him country. My kids enjoyed the show and stayed in the front while I went to the back. The crowd gets a little out of hand. They were throwing full cups of beer in to the air and at people. It was crowded yet people felt the need to dance. Regardless if they got in your way, stepped on your toes, or spilled your drink. Oh and the people who chat nonstop at concerts are extremely rude. Couldn't hear the music over the people that were only there to drink and cause a ruckus.
