Lee the way you complimented the sound engineer is why you are a real good cat and a class act I wish there were more people in the world like you it would be such a better place
Brings back memories. As a kid I remember watching Chitty Chitty Bang Bang at the Uptown Theatre when it first came out and it looked exactly the same on the inside. We moved to Oregon in 1969. Thanks Lee!
YES! I saw Chitty Chitty Bang Bang at the Uptown as a kid too! Probably about 5 years old - 1968 or 1969. They did a great job restoring it a while back. I saw Kansas and King’s X there a few years back. Nicest venue of its size in the Midwest!

1926-1928 The original design for the Uptown was carried out by Kansas City architect, Robert Gornall. Construction first began on the portion of the Uptown that would house offices and shops along Broadway. This office and retail portion of the Uptown was completed in November of 1926; however work on the theater was halted until the Universal Film Company acquired the unfinished building in 1927. Completed in 1928, the Uptown Theater was Kansas City’s premier entertainment spot showcasing first-run movies. “The Irresistible Lover” starring Norman Carey and Lois Moran opened to a sold out crowd at the Uptown on January 7th 1928, as the marquee brightened Broadway for the first time.
1928-1929 Australian born John Eberson created Kansas City’s only “atmospheric” theater. The theater was designed to replicate a romantic, outdoor Mediterranean courtyard. The most prominent feature was the nighttime-sky ceiling - complete with twinkling stars, clouds and mechanical flying birds. Many of the biggest stars of motion pictures, stage and music and played the Uptown Theater. In 1928, an unknown comedian in his early twenties named Bob Hope performed his comedy act for a week long run of shows.
1930-1939 In the thirties, movies starring Will Rogers, Claudette Colbert and Shirley Temple were featured at the Uptown. Movie stars like Joe E. Brown, Gene Autry, Roy Rogers, and Tom Mix along with his horse Tony, made personal appearances on the Uptown stage. At that time many Kansas Citians still traveled by streetcars and buses but as purchasing vehicles became more common, the Uptown began offering free parking across Broadway Boulevard. A white-gloved, uniformed attendant with a whistle and flashlight would help people to and from their cars. In 1939 the Uptown copyrighted “fragratone” in which fragrances would be funneled through the ventilation system, adding olfactory pleasure to the entertainment experience.
1940-1969 In the forties, the Uptown rode the success of Hollywood and the movie industry to unrestrained heights of box office success. Matinees with KMBC’s Big Brother Bob Club packed the theater on Saturday mornings. In the fifties and sixties, first-run movies along with live vaudeville and stage productions provided theatergoers with first-rate entertainment. The theater continued to feature stage shows and film until well after WWII, and remained one of Kansas City’s most profitable theaters as late as the 1960’s.
1970-1989 In the early seventies the theater housed the Lyric Opera Company for two years. Beginning in 1973, the theater became home to the Palace Dinner Playhouse. By the late 1970s the theater began to function primarily as a concert venue. On June 27th, 1979 the Uptown Theater was listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Throughout the 1980s the Uptown Theater continued it’s prominence in the live music scene in Kansas City. Unfortunately, after years of mismanagement the interior of the theater had fallen into disrepair, and all of the original details were whitewashed. In 1989 the Uptown Theater closed and for the first time since the 1920s, Broadway was no longer lit up by the theater’s prominent marquee.
1994-1995 Following the closure of the Uptown Theater in 1989 the property was transferred to the Land Trust of Jackson County, a governmental corporation established by state law to sell properties in order to satisfy unpaid taxes. Larry Sells, the president of the Land Trust during that time spent a few years trying to sell the vacant theater to developers with no luck. In 1994, Larry Sells resigned from the Land Trust and purchased the Uptown on his own with plans to restore the theater as well as the entire commercial corridor of Broadway between 38th Street and Armour Boulevard.
HA. i watched this today June 30th and thought I'd share it with a bud who played there in '81. I looked it up and it was exactly this date! I was able to tell Larry Lynch, drummer of the Greg Kihn Band, I know where you were 43 years ago today. Larry still plays with a band called the Faves in SF with guitarist Robbie Dunbar (Earthquake and GKB).
So interesting to see just a little of the real work that happens for shows! Thank you, Leland, lifting the veil for us to see just a tiny bit of that work world. Gorgeous place!
Hallo Lee, es ist für mich immer wieder ein Erlebnis, wenn du vor deinem großen Auftritt hinter den Kulissen für uns das alles dokumentierst. Danke, dass ich dabei sein darf.😯👍🙏☮
During the '70's, I saw Weather Report there twice, George Benson, Al Di Meola, and many others. There were tables and chairs on the main floor. This brings back fond memories. Thanks!
Sir Lee, Just love old school, what a beautiful venue! Hoping all is well the Saturday morning, take care, thank you so much for the tour and the greetings with fans. You are awesome! Safe travels!
@@slipperynoodle20 You mean the 2-engine Electras, right? I’m always confused when I hear Electra because the L-188 was a regular visitor at „my“ airport when I was young.
Thank you for taking time for your fans! It was a thrill to chat with you and get a picture together. The show was a blast and all y’all are great musicians! And the guy who sang bass? If you ever break your B string and he’s around he has you covered.
Lee, you are so patient and kind with fans and your time - it’s just unbelievable. As a fellow musician, you have my respect as THE session bass player of our time but more so as a human being. Thanks for being you!
So very cool, Lee! What a beautiful theatre. Love seeing these amazing theatres/venues. And the way in which you address people is just marvelous ! CLASSY, bass brother 🙌🏽
Good evening, Lee!! 😃😎🎸🎶 We were at a local fireworks display & community picnic here on Cape Cod! 🇺🇸❤️🤍💙🎆🎆🎆🎆😃 Love this venue and setup! Keep selling those books! 📖 Hope you guys had a great gig tonight!! Gosh, do I miss you! ❤🤗😙🎸🎶😎
Come out west and you won't have to leave the house to leave fireworks, they'll come to you! Hopefully you won't end up next to a house storing 75 tons of them, but there's 💥 aplenty.
@@suecorrigan It's mostly illegal here too, but I guess that's merely a suggestion. Where the "safe" ones are legal, people come in to use the illegal ones. Great if you are into shock and awe. New Hampshire probably benefits from a smaller population and, maybe, less access to huge amounts of explosive/incendiary devices.
@@suecorrigan I posted a video just for you! I took it a few feet from the back door last year. Press the big S a couple times and it will take you to our channel and it will say "For Sue."
Lee, I hope you were able to get a meal at Pho Tower, which was right in the middle of your video frame right after you exited the theater. I became a big pho (Vietnamese clear broth soups) fan in L.A., and since relocating back home to K.C., they’re the best at it here! (Yummy and affordable.)
I've lived in KC for 40 years, The Uptown hosts many top bands. I've been a musician for 50+ years. I play several instruments but the Bass has always been my favorite. For those of you who play Bass and do NOT know the name Leland Sklar, you should look at the list of his credits. Lee, I first discovered you playing with James Talor and Carole King, two more of my all time favorites. Great video!
Hey Lee, I wanted to drive over from Lawrence just to say hey and pay my respects to you! Regretfully, I could not make it. Best wishes! Hope you had a good time in KC! Cheers!
What a gorgeous theater!! The modern ones are nice but just don't have the class of the old theaters! All the craftsmanship is amazing!! So happy to see you back out filming for all us fans!! ❤💋 🖕
Wow! A lot of stuff happening. Hope you found some good food. I found myself wanting that woman's extra tickets. ...and brainstorming about rounding some up while my brain is not distracted here for a second. ❤😊
Another iconic venue. It’s a treat to see all the kitschy paraphernalia but the real joy is watching Leland interact with his followers, to think that guy recorded at Sun Studios in’59, he’s older than Lee! 😂
You're in the stomping grounds of your old buddy, Gene Clark! Walt Disney's original Laugh O Gram studios are nearby as well! Enjoy KC, it's a great town! You're one of the all time good guys!
Quite an exciting treat to be brought along for glimpses at these fantastic venues. Thank you so much Lee. Looking for Brad all the time now, such a nice man. How's Maureen?
Saw Warren Zevon there on his Werewolves tour 78ish? Probably six or seven encores. The crowd would not let him go. He was down to playing half a song that he "was working on." He finally had to come out and say "That's all I've got." One note about the ceiling. It is molded to be curved for the acoustics a la cathedrals.
👍👍 This tour is becoming a bit of an architectural revelation for me. It was such a pleasing sight to see the historical theater, but even across the street at that site you can see (what appear to be) new block like multistory apartments in the current style. I have seen a lot of it spring up very recently and very fast in areas that we are familiar with, but I had no idea it was happening all over until it showed up outside your venues 4 days in a row(?) even in Nebraska and outside a big city.
The Uptown. Spent many a days there watching movies. James Bond - Thunderball. Godzilla. I went every weekend. My first concert there was Phoebe Snow, she was great. When you went outside if you would have went to your left, down Valentine Rd you would have seen a very cool neighborhood. Hey in the back of the Englewood Theater in nearby Independence you can see the the tagged walls backstage, where performers have written their names, even Elvis.
@ 16:00 the guy didn't need to correct you , but he did need to feel important and in charge . they must relegate him to cleaning the restrooms , he seems so very happy to be alive . Kind of guy who hates a bright Sunlight day . I wonder if his Mom is proud of him . Bet she's tough on him too . Ball busters who can't tell the difference between a threat and the main act probably are in the wrong line of work .
Hey lee. Who’s Lyle Lovett????? Never mind. Her face when she said that. 😂😂😂😂😂 Those kids probably listen to that auto-tune crap. They don’t know great music. Your interactions with your fans is really something. Beautiful venue sir. Greetings 🙏🏻

Be nice to see a video of the dogs when he gets home see their reaction.
Seen a bunch of amazing concerts there. Really cool spot for a show
Everything's up to date in Kansas City, they've gone about as far as they can go...

Saw Frank Zappa there in the late 70's great venue. saw Bohams led zepplin evening there a couple of years ago.. lot of memories on that stage.
Saw Buddy Rich there in 1977 and been drumming ever since.
