Stuck on Broadway

If there’s a lesson to be learned from Kansas City’s Stuck on Broadway, it’s that you can take the punk out of the suburbs, but you can’t take the suburbs out of the punk. Since re-joining forces less than a year ago, the Lenexa-born trio of Drew Scofield (lead vocals, bass), Steve Nick (guitar, vocals) and Jeff Polaschek (drums) — each of whom had a hand in the on-again-off-again Anything But Joey — have parlayed what could’ve been a footnote in KC’s musical history into touring and recording success. In addition to a seemingly endless string of shows throughout the metro and beyond, the band is putting one last coat of polish on its latest pop-punk opus, Shut Up and Kiss Me! But is SOB really just the Anything But Joey sequel? Damn right, it is. If your old band’s hit song pulled in more than 600 spins on KRBZ 96.5 in its heyday, you’d be playing the same kind of stuff, too.
