Concert 1979-03-05 Kansas City

Venue Kansas City, KS, Memorial Hall  Musicians Elvis Costello The Attractions Steve Nieve - keyboards Bruce Thomas - bass Pete Thomas - drums Setlist Setlist unknown Start time: End time: Opening act The Rubinoos They sprinkled an eager crowd (of which I was among) at Memorial Hall in Kansas City, March 2, with that conbination of sixties pop and more. Although I was waiting for a never delivered "Sugar, Sugar" encore, The Rubinoos charmed the audience with a near perfect reading of the Beatles chestnut, "Please Please Me" and their own undeniable pop classics from The Rub's '78 release. Their sarcastic demeanor along with their sugar flaked music made me forget that Elvis Costello and his Attractions were next on the agenda. - Ken Freeman
