Roman Numerals at VooDoo Lounge

Roman Numerals

Cheaper than: Cabo Wabo shots at the Uptown

Better than: A hayride through midtown

Review by Berry Anderson

There are a whopping 35 days left until winter. Before you retreat to the warmth of your velour pants and microfiber couch to lose yourself in the third season of Grey’s Anatomy, remind yourself that the clear nights and brisk air of the autumn we have are prime for adventures. Casino adventures, baby.

It doesn’t take much to get this sister north of the river. The titillating sociological implications of the casino complex, combined with some of the best peoplewatching in the city, are reasons enough to pull out that Total Rewards card and use it for its intended purpose rather than scraping the funk off of the back of the toilet.

Feeling like a winner, I headed for Harrah’s VooDoo Lounge Friday night, the spot for the final KC show of the year for local band Roman Numerals. Rollin’ solo that evening, I decided to save the excitement of The District for another time. Perhaps one day I will be beckoned back for freedom fries and fried bologna from that one bar and grill. Crazier things have happened.
