"Disney the High School Musical" - Nov 30 - Dec 2

Kansas vs. Ohio - Dec 15

Big XII Tournament - March 13-16, 2008

Wow.  I hadn't heard that KU actually had a game scheduled there.  (Besides the Big XII Tournament, that is)

CBE Classic - November 19-20 (featuring Mizzou, Maryland, UCLA, Michigan State)

Blue Man group sucks... worst $110 dollars I've ever spent in my life.  It's really overrated, don't waste your money.  They don't talk at all through the whole thing, and all they do is hit on painted PVC pipes.  Just wasn't my thing.... I'm sure some people like it though.

Yes, though not rock. I'm pretty sure it's been held at Arrowhead and/or Kemper a few times.

The Sprint Center will be hosting some Latin rock bands....in Second Life.

It's a longshot, but has anyone heard anything about how much the EJ tix are going to run?  They're officially on sale Aug. 6th.  Any ideas?

Ticket prices to see Elton John as the inaugural act at the Sprint Center on Oct. 13 were announced Wednesday: $87, $67 and $47.

Jeff Beck

One of the best shows touring right now.

Hope they get Jeff.

I'm hoping they get more shows on ice than just the high school musical. 

Isn't Elton John going to be an icetravaganza?  What about Yanni on Ice?  Celine on Ice?  WWE on Ice?  Monster Ice Trucks?

Stevie Wonder just announced a 13 city tour, the first in a decade, but no KC.

Jeff Beck

One of the best shows touring right now.

Hope they get Jeff.

I'd look for him at more of an Uptown-type venue. I think his days of arena tours are behind him. At least as a headliner.

That's a good Venue. Jeff is coming on strong. Stole the show at Crossroads 07.

thank you.

How about a cage fight night.

I'd like to see:

Tonya Harding vs. Ann Coulter




Other matchups?

Michael Moore vs Ann Coulter. She would probably win though....that's one insane, fiery bitch.
