"Jesus Christ Superstar"
As performed by Lawrence musicians
When: Saturday, March 4, 2006, 7 p.m.
Where: The Record Bar, 1020 Westport Road, Kansas City, MO
Cost: $5
Age limit: All ages
Categories: Rock
Description: 4 shows:
Feb 25th, Bottleneck (Two shows, 7 pm all ages and 11 pm 21+).
March 4th, the Record Bar in Westport (Two shows, 7pm all ages and 11pm 21+)
Music from the Original 1970 album “Jesus Christ Superstar” will be performed by a 12 piece group made up members of some of Lawrence’s finest bands, including:
Split Lip Rayfield, the Midday Ramblers, The What Gives,
Drakkar Sauna, The She-bangs, and Marry Me Moses. Special Guests will include Arthur Dodge as King Herod and John Cutler as Simon.
These performances are the culmination of more than a year of rehearsals. The performance is drawn from the two-record set released in 1970 that featured Ian Gillan from Deep Purple as Jesus, Yvonne Elliman as Mary Magdalene, and Murray Head as Judas. This will be a rock show, not a theatrical performance.
All proceeds from the Lawrence shows will benefit the LINK Kitchen of Lawrence and the Lawrence Humane Society. The Kansas City show will also be a benefit for an as yet undetermined charity.
