One could easily make the argument that Lawrence -- and especially the Bottleneck -- served as the home base for power-pop trio Ultimate Fakebook for the greater part of the band's career. But despite several performances in Kansas City, as well as a New Year's Eve show in its hometown of Manhattan, Kansas, the band has yet to play a reunion show in Lawrence.
So it was with great glee that fans read the band's tweet on Friday afternoon that the group would finally be returning to the Bottleneck on Saturday, October 29. The "Revenge of the Nerds Costume Ball" looks to be the social event of Halloween for local rock 'n' rollers, especially since when you look at the Bottleneck's concert calendar, you see that the openers are a reunited Podstar and the Touchdowns. It's 1999 all over again!
