Q&A: Steve Tulipana on five years at the RecordBar

Last night was the first night of the RecordBar’s four-day weekend of shows celebrating a half-decade in business. Tonight, Field Music headlines an excellent bill of bands that includes the Future Kings, Hidden Pictures and Soft Reeds, and the party goes through Sunday.

Earlier this week, we emailed with Steve Tulipana (who co-owns the joint with Shawn Sherrill) about what it’s been like running a music venue in Kansas City for the past five years, and about the bands lined up for this weekend. His answers will shock you! (Not really, but they’re good answers.)
