Brooklyn Vegan is reporting that ex-Modern Lover Jonathan Richman and sidekick Tommy Larkins will be coming to the Record Bar on June 29. Fellow sardonic singer-songwriter Vic Chesnutt will be joining Richman for part of the tour, but, unfortunately not the part that comes to KC. Unless Vic's eight loyal local fans want to stand up and demand he be drafted for one more show. Come on, guys!

Last time Richman was in town, he played at the Hurricane, unless I'm mistaken. I bet that one was hard to hear.

I guess I'm one of the eight Vic fans in the area. His live performances, however, have always been a drag for me. His whisper is hard to hear over bar chatter.

Yup, 'tis true! You scooped us. We were going to announce later this week. Very excited about it.

Tickets will go on sale next week. $10 18+ show. 9:30 start time. No support. That's how he likes it apparently.
