Motel Mancini @ The Iron District

Motel Mancini is probably the most punctual band in Kansas City. Our gig was scheduled to start at 6pm and we converged on the scene to set up our gear at 4:45. Then at 4:46 it started raining. Fortunately it was one of those pop up summer storms that doesn’t last that long and we were able to set up an hour later. Angela (Clay’s significant other) recorded our first set and our second set. It was our first time in the Iron District. We got booked because Chris’ niece runs one of the vending spaces (Kind Food) there, and she put in a good word for us. Here’s a bird’s eye view of where we were:The pic above was taken pre-Covid. We only had around 15-20 people show up. The rain and the pandemic kept a lot of people away, but we still had fun. Small venues like this are the only places to see live entertainment these days.
