![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() They place really rocks it and it certainly is nothing fancy, but an atmosphere where you can really relax and just be you.Kansas City International Airport (MCI), or KCI, as it’s commonly known, served 11.7 million passengers pre-pandemic in 2019, making it the second-busiest year in the airport’s history. This is really a fun venue and we loved our experience here. Under our bleachers is a bar and to the north of it is a bunch of tables on the ground on the asphalt in front of "the garage." Our seats in the bleachers gave us a very close up view of the band. Suffice to say, the main stage is the play house which you can stand in front of the stage. When you look at the pictures of this place, you will see the garage part, the bar part, the stage part and just lots of parts of a place that is really neat, but is a lot of disjointed buildings that are difficult to understand from the photos online. ![]() The warm-up band and The Boxmasters turned out to be an awesome performance as we had scored two seats in the bleacher seating for $50 each. So, one hand stamp later we got the car and drove it back across the now empty tracks to the somewhat less than desirable neighborhood street parking to see Billy Bob Thornton and The Boxmasters. We parked under a bridge on the south side of the bar and when we got inside, the staff advised us that this was not a good idea for safety and there was an additional problem the trains often park on the tracks and you cannot cut through by foot back across the tracks. This would have led to another problem you would have to walk back across the tracks in order to get to the wholly inadequate Knuckleheads gravel parking lot. Incidentally, we could have turned around, got back on the highway and got over the tracks. Well, we were a little late getting going from the hotel and got stuck waiting for one of the longest train in the history of the United States of America. Just fifteen minutes away from the Aloft Hotel in North Kansas City across the Missouri River Bridge on Interstate 35/29, we got off the highway expecting just a couple quick turns through this industrial area with a awesome selection of railroad tracks. On the night that the Swifties invaded Kansas City we navigated out of our hotel through Moms and thirteen year old girls. ![]()
