Franz Ferdinand invaded the Westport area of Kansas City on April 27th. First they played 96.5 Buzz's "Kegs and Eggs"event. People were at the bar, Firefly bright and early at 6am on a rainy Monday morning to get their drink on. Alex and Nick came out to play four acoustic songs at 9:30am after about an hour delay. Nick came out on crutches as both sat on stools to play to the Monday morning drinkers. I talked to Nick briefly and asked him about something in the story that British magazine MOJO did on the band explaining the recording process of the new album "Tonight", it said that the song "No You Girls" featured human bones on percussion. Nick said it was true and I said, where did you get human bones? He said on the beach...what beach was that exactly? I replied.
Later on in the evening Franz Ferdinand played to a packed house at The Beaumont Club. It seemed like people off all ages were at this show. I saw some little kids dancing around to Franz along with people four times their age. Everyone was having a great time at this show. You have to hand it to Franz Ferdinand, they write really catchy songs. Scotland Rocks!
Oi! Paul loved our Winstead hamburgers.
