Re: “The endless drama of the Kansas City Blues Society

we have had better results joining the Bluesiacs, a blues-lovin' meet-up group. There, it's just about the music, having fun, learning about new groups that are in town or are coming to town. I was a member of the Grand County Blues Society in Winter Park, CO when I lived out there, and for a small community, they kicked ASS! Now their blues festival is becoming one of the best in the country. It's a pity a town the size of KC, and with the heritage and history of the blues, can't do better in creating a supportive organization then they have with KCBS. Makes you wonder what the BS really stands for!

Sounds like the crap the KC Film Festival is going through. They just dumped the clown that hijacked the festival and ran it into the ground. Beware of power hungry twolls!

Joe is two parts hubris and two parts nepotism. He wants all the power and fame he can muster, but he isn't smart enough to know how to get it.

Re: “The Blight King

This is Richard Tolbert. I was asked if any of the article was true. The answer is that perhaps 5% of the article is true. The rest of the article is false, taken out of context, and libelous. Ms Pflum never actually interviewed me for the article, nor did she ever give me the opportunity to rebutt the statements made against me.
I believe she wrote the article to punish me for saying that hip-hop is a crock of "stuff", at a previous meeting of the Eggs and Enlightenment group. She went out and interviewed my enemies and opponents, and presented their biased statements as gospel. She seems to have done no fact checking, and a close reading of what she wrote shows that she drew the wrong inferences from much of what she presented as facts.

Re: “All crushed out on these 12 Kansas Citians

to real job mcgee......and you're suprised....this is the Pitch ..... the paper that makes it's money pimping escorts and massage "therapists", so it can spew leftwing tripe. But then again.....you're not going to get much better journalism at the Star either. I look at both of these rags as entertainment.....kind of like a cartoon strip ....with a bonus.....they give you insight to the vapid soul of the left.

Re: “Davy Rothbart's heart is an idiot, but he's nobody's fool

Sorry, this article is poorly reported -- you're just taking Davy Rothbart's statements at face value. You allow Rothbart to imply that the Innocence Project has taken this case. Have they? I don't think so, but if they have please actually report that instead of letting Rothbart make a passing reference that implies they have.

Also, you make a huge error by saying he was convicted mostly based on the taped phone call, and that Kelly was close to Justin, Byron and Anastasia at the time of the murder. Not "close," she was an eye witness to the murder, and she testified about what she saw. All of the testimony and other evidence, taken together, is what convicted Byron Case. John Allen has not uncovered any "new information."

And Davy Rothbart, I do think you are being duped by a "mastermind criminal" -- or at least a very intelligent, charming sociopath.

Re: “All crushed out on these 12 Kansas Citians

so let me get this straight...the amazing guys you picked for this list include an actor, writer, designer, artist, and musician...then wonder why they're single? this is pathetic, in a city full of great successful professionals, go find real talent.

Re: “Just how much impact has the Green Impact Zone had?

Preach Rob Jones... and lets not forget about the biggest monster of them all MARC. Who did not take the time to find a City and not a firm who has done this already. Beltline in Atlanta is a ideal model for what the Green Impact was to do and it is fabulous...not perfect but damn near and so they did not have to bake the cake over again. I can not believe how much money they have spent and did less than 10% of what needed to be done. Not only that the sewer system is falling apart right under KC and that is not the first priority within these areas. I believe that we need federal accountability for the amounts of money being passed around. I recently did a contract under MARC and was so disqusted at how they did the minumum required to service the grant that I am now standing up and saying something. Crazy!!! but this has been going on for years!!!!!!

Re: “Barbershop 67 built a community. Diamond Cuts is taking it back

Craig was and still is a stand up guy. What he built and how he rolls is how I will
always remember what that barber shop 67 was like. I believed in what he had before
when it was just "his dream", told him he should do it, and watched him pull it together.
My money was on Craig and I think he should jump back in and do it again.
What happened wasn't his fault, sad end to something good. Could happen anywhere.
