Around the KCMetro
by Todd Comer
Mondays
Evolution, at
Davey's Uptown is probably the best place to be on a Monday night. I've
really found nothing better going on with as much variety.
On any given Monday night, you could hear just about any local
or regional DJ, as well as some national and international
acts. No longer just Goth night, there's no telling what you'll
get yourself into there!
Tuesdays
This is kind of strange day with no definite crowd at any specific place.
Most people tend to stick to the places they know or are close by their
homes. Mike's Tavern is probably one of the most homey places to hang,
have a beer and shoot some pool to the sounds of various Electronic
DJs.
If you're clear out South though, stop in at Hannah's Bistro on Metcalf.
Steve Thorell just started a weekly there that already has some dedicated
fans.
Wednesdays
Hands down, the Wednesday Perk at The Cup & Saucer is probably best place
to be on a Wednesday Night in KC, spinning up some of the finest in Down Tempo
and Drum and Bass. Be sure to get there early though, because if it's "one
of those nights", you may find yourself sitting outside if you show up
after 11.
Thursdays
DeepFix Records have put together Frisky, decidedly one the Best Nights
in Kansas City every Thursday at Kabal Restaurant & Nightclub. More times than
not, you will have the opportunity to dance to some of the finest headliners
from around the continent, and even the globe.
Fridays
For the end of the work week, I highly recommend stopping by The Point for a
good solid dose of House from a couple of the best DJs in Kansas City, Steve
Thorell
and Bill Pile. Laying it down smooth and sexy in the basement, you are sure
to have a good time and get a little sweaty shakin your thang. If you're not
nearly old enough for this, and still have a need to get your groove on, be
sure to check out The Place every Friday for some of the best local DJ talent.
Saturdays
This is kind of a strange day in KC for Electronic Music. Typically, Saturday
is a day reserved for "The Event", though there has been a scarcity
of such things as of late. Regardless, on the club front, there are so many
places
to go, it's really difficult to nail
down The One Best Place, though Chakra is definitely
doing it's best to fill that void and become the hottest place to be.
Sundays
Is there anything going on Sundays anymore?
